Satoshi 03:46
[INTRO] My bag (My bag, my bag, my bag) Country, man (try man, try man, try man) Time is money and I need my bag. Neighbor, city, state, country, man. [VERSE 1] Yo, yo, yo, I wake up in the morning feeling like Satoshi Nakamoto in public I feel kinda naked so I get up get dressed for work, and brush the smile then push-ups, breakfast cook, and then I’m out. Wait - I find it fascinating that I been playing the same exact game as I had been laughing at players for getting caught up in the green like green life is real life until meal time is me time, you could say any day that I am [BRIDGE] Living in a material land to see miracle fantasies coming true as long as people had planned for them As long as people had planned for them. Money is like the new scope, everything gets big when you zoom in up close, whoa. Money is like the new sight, everybody wanna see it but nobody wanna fly, whoa. [CHORUS] Time is money and I need my bag. Higher salary I need mine fast. My security, my homies, fam, neighbors, city, state, country, man, Time is money and I need my bag. Higher salary I need mine fast. My security, my homies, fam, neighbors, city, state, country, man, [VERSE 2] Look, the rich is acting poor. The poor is acting rich. I find myself applauding the people who wrote the script. Most of em live on Wall Street, and many calling them pigs. I’m quite impressed, in fact I like the system that they built. I use it to advantage. Cycles of life, cycles of money cruising around us. Application devices investing look at the planet. Put the residue of the expenses into replenishing it for the advances but that’s only a suggestion. Power to you for earning. Don’t worry what I said just do what you want cause honestly that be how we work as two individuals in unlimited little swimming pools treating them like the shark tank. [BRIDGE] Living in a material land to see miracle fantasies coming true as long as people had planned for them As long as people had planned for them. Money is like the new scope, everything gets big when you zoom in up close, whoa. Money is like the new sight, everybody wanna see it but nobody wanna fly, whoa. [CHORUS] Time is money and I need my bag. Higher salary I need mine fast. My security, my homies, fam, neighbors, city, state, country, man, Time is money and I need my bag. Higher salary I need mine fast. My security, my homies, fam, neighbors, city, state, country, man, [VERSE 3] I lay awake at night feeling like Satoshi Nakamoto when going back on a bike to when he was a baby and couldn’t look at the time and know where it was flowing in rivers from out the sides. He took the little baby and took him back to his house, he felt the need to raise him into something with impact: the global market - USA, China, Russia combined. Trusting within a system of mathematics and science, rather than governments that fulfill us within confines of what they think we think is necessary and beyond. I think about all this in theory and then practically bring it to a high where we got the clout, we got the money inside, we bring the money to life, and strive. [BRIDGE 2] Living in a material land to see miracle fantasies coming true as long as people had planned for them As long as people had planned for them. Time is like the new scope, everything gets big when you zoom in up close, whoa. Time is like the new sight, everybody wanna see it but nobody wanna fly, whoa. [CHORUS 2] Time is not money - I been that bag. I was lost until I built my path. My security, my homies, fam, neighbors, city, state, country, man, Time is not money - I been that bag. I was lost until I built my path. My security, my homies, fam, neighbors, city, state, country, man, [OUTRO] Y’all don’t realize that stars are realigned to fall with every wall that stalls the real life. When we are reassigned then we will see about the freedom bleeding out in freakishly high amounts, the death within life depends on life within death again resurrect for five tracks the train stacks brains on brains to strike with the lightning and the hurricane in weather vain cracks.

MAYA 03:23
[INTRO] Look at the rats, then look at the race. (Most advanced, yet acceptable, this is next level, next level) Each of them got their very own first place. Breathe out the pay to meet with the gain, (No advantages to rejecting what gets better, gets better) as we observe the freedom and pain. [VERSE 1] See it, feel it, hear it, and do it and then fill the cracks and crack them open again. You and I are like the sky and the sea. You and I are part of each other at least. [CHORUS] May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go. (Maya-ah, ma-a-ya-a-a-oh, oh) May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go. [VERSE 2] These are the keys that do unlock every time movement’s needed to unblock every line. you can’t erase what you can’t mistake cause human imperfection will always remains. We just stay tryna go in and out, we go up and we’re down, aye. These are directions that we couldn’t live without, aye. Let all the pieces smother into the dust cause they all be swept away with the whip of a gust, some day. [CHORUS] May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go. (Ma-e-e-e-e-e-e-ya-o-o-oh-o-oh) May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go. [VERSE 2] Most advanced yet acceptable this is next level. No advantages to rejecting what gets better. When these trends do reveal what expands, I see love and hate suffocating each other where they end. To reproduce and survive we super multiply, aye. conducive to fly above all of the cries, aye. Markets and businesses, and pockets and pictures are so hollowed for living mocks Samsara intuitively. [CHORUS] May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go. (May, may, may, ma-may, ma-may, may May, may, may, ma-may, ma-may go-oh) May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go. [VERSE 3] Dance with the image and twirl it around. Make it prettier while it’s falling and down. Take all the guns, and put them on the ground. Take all the floods, and put them in the clouds. [CHORUS] May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go. (Maya-ah, ma-a-ya-a-a-oh, oh) May maya maya maya, may maya maya maya, go.

Paperback 03:54
[INTRO - Seth Godin] We process you for a whole year. If you are defective, we hold you back and process you again. We sit you in straight rows just like they organize in the factory. We build a system all about interchangeable people because factories are based on interchangeable parts. This piece is no good? Put another piece in there. This piece is no good? Put another piece in there. [VERSE 1] Do you see not what you are doing to me? Do you need not to explain continuing? We got the clout from people who got even more. We got the clout and we don’t like to keep score. [CHORUS] Taking my notes everyday for now, laying groundwork everyday for now, paid educate over paperback. “Wanna escape, go the danger routes?” Taking my notes everyday for now, laying groundwork everyday for now, paid educate over paperback [VERSE 2] My whole childhood I was raised in weather where you couldn’t make it rain with no umbrella. So I don’t fly till I got great propellers. And I hold those skies in my life forever. [CHORUS] Taking my notes everyday for now, laying groundwork everyday for now, paid educate over paperback. “Wanna escape, go the danger routes?” Taking my notes everyday for now, laying groundwork everyday for now, paid educate over paperback [INTERLUDE] [VERSE 3] Do you see not what you are doing to me? Do you need not to explain continuing? We got the clout from people who got even more. We got the clout from one of them we keep in store. [CHORUS] Taking my notes everyday for now, laying groundwork everyday for now, paid educate over paperback. Wanna escape go the danger routes Taking my notes everyday for now, laying groundwork everyday for now, paid educate over paperback [INTERLUDE - Mark Cuban] It’s like the newspaper industry. More printing presses, more big buildings - right? Makes us look grander. We have - makes us look grander. We have brains that we’re putting them out there. There’s a point of diminishing returns in terms of [VERSE 4] Wait: The cost of living going up the cost of life is going down until the life takes itself up to a higher plane beyond death, beyond tragedy war, grief, dismay, plague, doubt. Higher philosophy, higher IQ, higher rates of employment - this is the future I wanna construe, wanna contribute, distribute, then exploit but so few understand so I gotta really get into they heads. I really gotta get a feel, do research, you may know more than me but doing is more than only research. Boy I been hearing so much complaining and complacency anti-hate is hate in amnesty. And I be stacking liquid and equity, dividend everything, many in debt with me, midnight I go to sleep 5 am wake up and do the same thing over again and people talking to me but I ain’t listen busy taking hella disciplined action to execute, to get you egg as skewed as chicken coop full of useless and useful food. Every thing eaten that’s good for you was alive like you for a time in the scheme or pursuit of embracing what you cannot escape come up with either excuses or solutions mine stemming from music - the proud mover of crowds and cultures in tune with hella diffusion of y’all dense energy for the movements.

Awaken 04:04
[INTRO] Till the end, and start soon (Maya, maya, maya) The giant within, till the end, and start soon. Oo-ooh, start-sa-nay. [CHORUS] I am beyond trapped. Beyond there. Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here. Ain’t nobody telling me otherwise, telling me cause I don’t care. And when I’m beyond trapped. Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here. Some day I’m gonna break away, awaken then I’ll really share. Awaken. Awaken, awaken, awaken. Take a look inside and show me you ain’t mistaken. Take a look around and tell me you ain’t amazing. Take a step back the whole is profound now embrace it. Embrace it, embrace it, embrace it. Cause you ain’t got a choice but showing people the unique. you ain’t got a voice until you decide to use it. Take a step back and then you’ll really share. Awaken. [VERSE 1] There is a time and a place for everything. There is a commonplace for every experiential basis on every trip. There ain’t no metric for no emotion. There is impermanence in occurrence cause we all depend on the external and certainty. Why not just find it within by starting with how you think? why not just stop watching news and turn off the notifs? (Dana Loesch: “Many in legacy media love mass shootings.”) Ain’t that why you can’t focus? Ain’t that why you don’t trust people, or why you’re so quick (Dana Loesch: “Crying white mothers?”) to feel you’re always being tricked? You give and get taken advantage of, why not just give like giving is the only thing? Because we just feel like our feelings are all that will win until we can learn to re-think. [CHORUS] I am beyond trapped. Beyond there. Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here. Ain’t nobody telling me otherwise, telling me cause I don’t care. And when I’m beyond trapped. Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here. Some day I’m gonna break away, awaken then I’ll really share. Awaken. Awaken, awaken, awaken. Take a look inside and show me you ain’t mistaken. Take a look around and tell me you ain’t amazing. Take a step back the whole is profound now embrace it. Embrace it, embrace it, embrace it. Cause you ain’t got a choice but showing people the unique. you ain’t got a voice until you decide to use it. Take a step back and then you’ll really share. Awaken. [VERSE 2] The giant within been in slumber, he been sleeping on you. You ain’t finding him under places he hit the snooze. When the weight is too much and don’t wanna continue, that is where you look up and grab the lowest hung fruit. Laugh and love cause it’s true that nothing can own you. Only you and it’s matter of what the music inside will outboom. Every night the full moon, every flower - full bloom, every tide is so blue, every cloud will still move. Like the crowds I go to. With my sound I fine tune. Till the end and start soon. Think for a second the people you left on your journey into the unknown to seal the letters of the undiscovered journal, burning every page yearning for more. Learning forever earning a certainty with the pulling back and eventually pushing forward. Think for a second the people you left on your journey - yeah, you did make the right choice. [CHORUS] I am beyond trapped. Beyond there. Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here. Ain’t nobody telling me otherwise, telling me cause I don’t care. And when I’m beyond trapped. Beyond fear. Beyond where. Beyond here. Some day I’m gonna break away, awaken then I’ll really share. Awaken. Awaken, awaken, awaken. Take a look inside and show me you ain’t mistaken. Take a look around and tell me you ain’t amazing. Take a step back the whole is profound now embrace it. Embrace it, embrace it, embrace it. Cause you ain’t got a choice but showing people the unique. you ain’t got a voice until you decide to use it. Take a step back and then you’ll really share. Awaken.
