lyrics

Verse 1

No games, don't chase fame, faceless
No names, all moves,chase papers
My way, all day, makes haters
Ya'll lame, I ain't, I stay gangsta
But not bangin & no gun to aim with
More like a mind & grind that is dangerous
Confident & prosperous, I'm shameless
I can't help but announce my greatness
I'm godly, a poor righteous teacher
My arm,leg,leg,arm,head will reach ya!
If you believe it, Jesus Christ will free ya!
But I'm more like a Dali llama preacher
My Mayan reflex got the world tweaking
My Aztec instincts will highlight ya weakness
I've broke down, these Illuminati secrets
I ain't scared of shit but not embracing my breathing

Hook

Tick Tock ... The hands will never stop
The sand in the glass, flips up to the top
This life right here's the only one I got
So, I'ma do my thang till the day that I drop

Love me right now, don't love me at my grave
Pay attention close to what I do & what I say
I'm in tune with the world & its crazy ways
I don't really play cuz this life is not a game

Verse 2

I'm out here man, I ain't trying to die
but I'm out here, out here getting it in
I'm trying to live, gotta feed my kids
Gotta pay my bills, I wanna smoke & chill
Count my blessings, count my cash
Gotta make them calls, make these plans
I ain't trying to dream, I'm living it up!
Filling my cup, pressing my luck
Giving the people the truth that they want
My soul & my passion, the things that I flaunt
Keep the hoes, I'm unbelievable
Young brown dude trying to change the world
They saying all this shit that will make you dream
I wake you up, I give you what you need
Get it, get it, ain't no limits
And you better keep a smile while you stay all in it

V!SUAL Chicago

​V!SUAL has a unique approach along with an intense work ethic that has given him an artistic angle not common in the industry. His sound is universal but rooted in the essence of Hip Hop and of the people and the streets of Chicago. His conscience message overshadows the violence and negative stereotypes Chicago has recently been recognized for.
