Traffic
Hook: [Shyland Flowers & Kelvin Frierson]

Now it was all a dream...But then the scene it changed...
I went from standing in line, but now I'm moving through the fast lane (Traffic) in and out of the, (Traffic) made my way through the
(Traffic) day to day in the (Traffic) Now it was all a dream But then the scene it changed...I went from standing in line, but now I'm moving through the fast lane. (Traffic) one in the same (Traffic) no pleasure no pain (Traffic) I'm still doing my thing


[Verse 1: Shyland Flowers]

Remember I Ain't have no change to ride the bus with, my lonely heart would only hold Kid Cudi to function, fore' I prayed to Jehovah, I was rapping with Hova, fore' I seen those shooting stars and change my name to Nova, I was stuck in the traffic just trying to shift my culture culinary arts the way they had beef ready to roast em, my pride sat aside for the moment, I despise all the lies y'all believed like the truth was the disguise, ill right?, back to gold feel might, got me unstable my n***as dying in real life, is this what shit feels like when you trying to make mills higher than GM, a different color BM, for every other season, the last rap hero from below the Mason Dixon, caught outta space writing my own science fiction, and I want everything cause Greenville raised me to live by two words: fuck you, pay me

[Verse 2: Shyland Flowers]

My own mother don't want to believe the struggle, like not getting support from somebody that says they love you, how I'm pose' to get this shit up, you telling me to get out, sit back and watch you sun rise, see how your son get down, I need a dream catcher instead of these dream killers, drowning myself in doubt with Henny deep in system, they saying the painting wrong, they ain't even in the picture, everybody wants the juice till you end up like bishop, read it, already seen it. Failure I don't be it, cause every road's different I just op to take the scenic, pull-ups on the bar that I raised higher than snoop lion, every day you quit is another day you keep dying, I'm back to form with the pressure keep grinding, house made of coal watch it turn it into a diamond and I want everything because Greenville raised me to live by two words: fuck you, pay me...
