Storm Ashore (feat. Artisan P)

You gotta be quick to adapt and switch tactics

To stay afloat above the choppy waters brackish

Mad waves crashing, nothing short of tragic

We kept at it like we were wired autopilot

All got silent, all jaws dropped to floor

When witnessing what’s handled from the blows we’ve absorbed

Keeping it raw, nothing keeping us from the score

Been here before, making proud the ones that we mourn

I never been worried ‘bout the grass where I’m not

I rock the green thumbs tending to the garden I got

I know how it’ll end when I soil the plot

Seeds growing with the seasons as we stand back and watch

The heat’ll be hot from the source beaming above

I feel rejuvenated while it’s lifting me up

Where everything below us are the signs that we won

But welcoming the harvest ain’t the sign that we’re done, no

The constant cycles continue, yeah we been knew

My wheels still spin whether or not I’m with you

You meet your goals if you have them within view

It makes life more than some shit we have to sit through

No I don’t mind I never got myself a cosign

I don’t think it matters, ‘cos i know I got dope rhymes

It’s a slow wind, it’ll be worth it when it’s show time

I got all I need, ain’t nothing else I need to go find

Each time the beat hits I tend to transform

Transcend norms with the strength to withstand storms

Many came, many went

And many claimed to be the shit, I still haven’t seen them ever since

Just some lost souls, hope they made it to the crossroads

I hold my own and get to know it on the walk home

We dropped the norms, and brought the noise

And knew we had no choice when we sailed into that storm
