Boy we never sleep, we're on our grind trying to eat.
from a city where someone will be quick to knock you off your feet.
and every corner the drug dealers exchange a gesture where they meet.
You can learn a lot just from how I speak.
here to show the youth our misguided ways
new kid to the game but everyone wants to see what he has to display , portray, my art is a gallery waiting to be heard
with a mentality most would think absurd
nothing but the truth in his fucking words
no made up tales of diamonds and jewels
the irrelevant nonsense made to make us look like fools.
Youth.

No matter how hard we try its never enough
Losing my sanity is what it means to come up
time to make the world believe in me
and show them this music is something thats a part of me.
Every word I speak I mean whole heartedly
A lot of things need to change,
so let it start with me.
you've been flooded with lies this whole time
I'm here to share a piece of me with you through rhyme.
poetry, to help you see because music has been so blind
and people fail to read between the lines.
We all won't live that lavish life unless we push to achieve
and not getting left behind,
I refuse to fail, listen to my words and know that none
of this is some made up fairy tale.
I've lived every word you are about to listen to
many nights have been sleepless. relentless.
you don't hear me you just hear the beat, you don't want the truth
denying that life is a mess man,


This music is embedded in my soul in my flesh,
keeping me up at night, no sleep, I've become restless,

I try to think about it less but then I think about it more,
so much I can do in life in mind that I have in store.
Spending these nights staring outside of my room
knowing that a better life has to come soon.
Knowing that I can achieve it too.

so my anxiety rises, and inside I try to fight this
I put it to the beat, record my guidance
and just pray that they hear me.

Portrey Youth on the rising.
