0:33

0:35
many a man as a kid them just hurting no
0:38
one healthy straight capping if you say
0:39
that you did and they ain't playing they
0:41
just say that there is and when the
0:42
guards down calm down it's all out
0:44
flaming the strip on time never late
0:46

0:48
facing the kid cuz I'm not a man I'm a
0:50
mid so call me 350 father family and
0:53
peace searching for the solids couldn't
0:55
find in the streets and Michael told me
0:56
I'm the true back in 2019 and 6 years
0:59
later I could finally see it ain't about
1:01
the dollar signs of who I finally meet.
1:04
If the kids back home don't know that
1:05
it's peace and myster in the cages don't
1:08
know that they're free. And all the kids
1:09
are no home. Know the child of the king.
1:11
See there's a mission on the way. Never
1:13
missing kind of day. Reminiscing on the
1:15
state of hip hop, but I can't complain.
1:17
They say we had a li, but they ain't
1:18
hearing what we say. They want to see
1:20
the truth. Then just look me in my face.
1:21
It's 350.
1:22
350. Give it up for 35.
1:25
Yo, who matched the rock?
1:28
Come on.
1:30
Q flow. North Philly in the building.
1:31
Let's get it.
1:33
Let's get it. Look, they try to question
1:36
my morale, but I'm a big step.
1:38
Microphone check. That's a chin. Check
1:39
it. The pink clever Philly boy. Boy, I
1:41
was cold in the cold weathers. You can
1:43
see the pressure stitched in my old
1:44
sweaters, but God got me. Hold on. I'mma
1:46
let that run you back.
1:48
Yeah. Yeah. Billy, stand up. Billy,
1:50
stand up. Q flow in the building.
1:53
Yeah,
1:54
but I'm a big step microphone. Check
1:56
this a chin checkered a pin. Clever
1:58
Philly boy dog. I was built in the cold
2:00
weathers. You can see the precious
2:01
stitched in my old sweaters. But God got
2:03
me. Trader pain for eternal life.
2:05
Imagine being told you be better off
2:07
there. You deserve the fight. Christ
2:09
died so you can see the way you all
2:10
deserve the right. The hands work.
2:12
Uncertain words. Let the certain rights.
2:14
The body strong but the mind was weak.
2:15
Had to put my s into submission. Boy,
2:17
I'm feeling like the iron sheep. Mod
2:19
Picasso bro. The art is unconventional
2:21
but even then the love is unintentional.
2:23
Listen here. Yeah. They say it's
2:25
something in the water from Philly where
2:27
the eels be spitting like Jaylen Carter.
2:29
If you ain't bring a thing to the table,
2:30
don't even bother. The story's already
2:32
written. I owe it to the father. What's
2:34
up? Yeah, y'all went and let the dog
2:36
out. Tell the homies Bible studies at
2:39
the dog house. If you with it, then you
2:41
with it. Ain't no call outs. Kobe Bryant
2:43
game seven. I'm a ball out. Came school,
2:45
but gritty back in style. It's time to
2:47
listen up. Bringing back the filling. It
2:48
was there. We had to dig it up. Prime
2:50
time. Get the buffs. Calling the
2:52
soldiers. They wasn't lit enough. No for
2:53
rushing. No discussion. Still pretty for
2:56
the Lord. Them demons quiet now. They
2:57
known for bluffing. Back spazzing. Catch
2:58
me in the ring. They see I'm back
3:00
jabbing. Shoot at least a hund on this
3:01
joint. I'm out here stab patting.
3:03
Walking my shoes, you couldn't move a
3:04
mile. Yeah, anyone can hit the court,
3:06
but there's a difference in our shooting
3:08
styles. We gave y'all air and
3:09
opportunity. Prove it now. Lying through
3:11
your teeth. We had our homies doing root
3:13
canals. Christians in the trenches. And
3:14
we still going to bring the truth
3:15
around. And listen for the haters who
3:17
don't want more. Might not be my son,
3:19
but you definitely my young boy. Philly.
3:21
Philly in the building. It's a little
3:24
chilly chilly. Hey,
3:26
who's next to rock?
3:27
You got me. You got me.
3:31
Don't even worry about it. Ladies and
3:32
gentlemen, this for you.
3:35
Yeah. Big Gavo Gavin a hot rod in the
3:38
building. What's up?
3:40
You got to buy this, yo. This will
3:44
I promise on
3:46
this a classic.
3:46
Hey, look.
3:49
The boys got it on lock. They like a gun
3:51
of safe. Why you stuck paying that
3:52
price? Always a fun away. This feel like
3:55
hearing that first note to run away.
3:56
Father blessed me with these 808s to
3:58
heal your heartbreak. That's what it's
3:59
like now. Pipe down. That boy looking
4:02
like a type now he fly now. Looking like
4:04
he about to fight slight pal. Anytime he
4:07
touched the mic now just right down
4:09
everything the father gave to him.
4:10
Wasn't fighting my demons. I was a slave
4:12
to him. Now it's power in my step. I'm
4:14
walking straight through them. They hate
4:16
the movement. Anytime it's for Yeshua.
4:18
Look, I know these boys can't rhyme much
4:20
to climb tough. They getting flipped
4:22
with sticks. They going to make a baton
4:23
bus. Remind us what's behind us. Nah, we
4:26
just beat the odds. They assigned us.
4:28
Gav, what's up?
4:31
Gavin the hot rod. Yes.
4:34
Come on. What we doing? Gav the hot rod.
4:37
Miami in the building.
4:38
Miami in the building. In the morning.
4:40
Let's go. Turn him up. Turn him up.
4:42
You already know what it is, baby.
4:44
Turn him up. There you go. Hey,
4:45
I got something to say. Mike LV
4:48
got fat new live. You already know what
4:50
it is.
4:51
Yeah. Hey. Hey. Okay. Go a little
4:55
something like this. Uh, two Americas,
4:58
different colors, different stripes,
5:00
different narratives. Dodge the lights,
5:01
watch for ice in your area. Born in
5:03
strife, born to die of malaria. Am I
5:06
scaring you? Well, if you scare, go to
5:08
church. Ice Cube said it first. It's the
5:10
land of the brave, so you better tuck
5:11
your skirt. Seen the news, another merk.
5:13
Seen the news, another perk. What they
5:15
do for Charlie Brown, they won't do for
5:16
Charlie. Hey.
5:19
Okay. Two black bodies found fresh off a
5:21
tree. Another cold case on the end of my
5:23
street while BB on the net controlling
5:26
the free. I grieve when I seen his death
5:28
on the screen. I still grieve from the
5:30
bombs that BB unleashed. What you mean?
5:32
Pick a side. God lives in between. Hey
5:34
Michael, do me a favor. Let's go switch
5:36
the beat. Come on. Come on. Let's go
5:38
switch the beat.
5:39
You already know what it is.
5:41
This world too. This world.
5:44
You feel me?
5:46
Come on. We talking about a man. You
5:48
know what it is.
5:49
What you going to do with this?
5:49
You know what it is? He He catching a
5:51
body tomb. Hey.
5:55
Okay. Life been madness. The way it all
5:58
went. I could have swear God planned it.
6:00
Devil taking advantage. Mental health
6:02
being kind of erratic. I'm never low. I
6:04
think bipolar and manic. I got to swear
6:06
God planned it. The shame we feel come
6:07
with the sadness. Cover up. I'm trying
6:09
to dodge these caskets. Got to swear God
6:11
planned it. It's safe to say I'm down
6:13
with factors. Paranoia got me feeding
6:15
this tragedy. Hey. Uh, why the Lord's
6:17
best soldiers got to be the ones to go?
6:19
They took my brother T Rost and left
6:21
this baby all alone. It's been 10 years
6:23
since Darius swerved all alone. Now I'm
6:25
sitting wondering why, man. I'm sitting
6:26
all alone. Now I'm thinking about dark
6:28
things I had to come from. And how my
6:30
son will grow up in a world I don't even
6:31
love him, man. Hey, life is fleeting,
6:34
but hope is coming. I pray I live in the
6:35
sky like a king who was never ducking.
6:37
Cuz no one knows when the reaper's
6:39
coming. Hope I hear when the trumpet
6:42
summit is my name up there with my
6:44
people. I pray for grace cuz Lord we all
6:47
get out in the morning
6:52
got something to say baby that's that
6:54
hyena hunger
6:58
we talking about it's your boy Brazil
7:03
representing the Lord Jesus chh in
7:06
Brazil baby.
7:07
Come on. Hey Reno, walking down the road
7:10
to a blessing, but also sacrifice.
7:12
Counted up the cost of a faway. You
7:14
can't tell me twice. Take the whole
7:15
receipt of my purchase. You know I
7:16
praise a price. Bruises on my feet like
7:18
I earn it. But this the grace of Christ
7:20
how I'm living. It's like every day a
7:21
funeral. Healing my desires and enemies
7:23
daily usual. This ain't 9 to five on a
7:25
desk of a broken cubicle. I talk about
7:27
the healer with better than
7:28
pharmaceutical.
7:32
[Music]
7:42
[Music]
7:50
Yeah. Put this flow on. Of course I got
7:52
an accent. I'm a young Latino Brazil and
7:55
dancing every beat like I grew up on and
7:58
the Bobby Tarantino. Went from rapping
8:00
in the mirror. Now I'm rapping with my
8:01
heroes. Gospel still the mission
8:03
secondary to zero. Lot of rappers asking
8:05
for purpose like houseway. Let them know
8:07
we got the answer and his name is
8:08
Yahweh.
8:11
Let know we got the answer and his name
8:13
is Yahweh.
8:15
What are we talking about?
8:17
What we talking about?
8:19
Tory, you up next and I'm going to do
8:21
something new for y'all. St. Louis East.
8:29
Been running rappers out of the gym and
8:31
this the new court. Sweat don't blow a
8:32
whistle yet. I think this cycle too
8:34
short. Now I got a wife and two
8:35
daughters to feed. Laying in LaGuardia
8:37
rap and go back to my queen's New York.
8:39
Let's get it started. I departed
8:41
straight out of the loop. Now I'm on the
8:42
east way ahead of my time. It's nothing
8:44
new. They say like a puzzle. Maybe
8:45
that's why I'm not put together. I just
8:47
pray and let Jesus rain over my stormy
8:49
weather. Innovate and stand over
8:50
copycaters like who your daddy after
8:52
this I need oxtail over Jamaican patty
8:54
you can fake making good music but you
8:56
can't fake the art cuz you can't fake
8:57
opening up enough for you to pick apart
8:59
this too easy for me my bar exam is a
9:01
easy a when I'm in that mode I get to
9:03
cooking that's an easy bake easy come
9:05
easy go just don't take the easy way
9:07
only a few know about my bars cuz I
9:08
speak easy I'm from East St. fluid still
9:10
in the hood like transmission fluid. I'm
9:12
always going to touch on that topic.
9:13
That's why they feel my music. This
9:14
might not impress my peers. This one
9:16
might not win the club. I just pray that
9:18
to God until you fall in love.
9:21
Yes sir. You heard Q. You heard Gavin
9:25
the highrise. You heard 350. You heard.
