about

"Desires" as it appears on ScholarMan's 2017 release Excursions 1B.

lyrics

That’s right
That’s right
That’s right

Verse 1

I do this for the collective
Trying to modify perspectives
Cause we selective
The fam that I connect with
The time that I invest with
For outcomes majestic
I speak to the Lord over beats
And then finesse it
Like a hieroglyphic message
Only few can ingest it
Others get congested
Nonsense they digested
I'm not regular
Not your normal competitor
Like alien vs predator
Raw without the editor
Uncut
The grind to come up
I'm like who the master
Me, show ‘nuff
Poker face your bluff
Enough with all of your games
I'm all about gains
Ain't got no time for you lames
No time to complain
The stress had me insane
So I, refrained
And focused on other things
Like my, daughter and dames
These beats that I arranged
These places in my range
To travel to, to sustain
All of my visions
Calculated decisions
Calibrated incisions
Elevated conditions
A new playing field
What I'm saying real
Cause I came to build
Respect like Dangerfield

Transition

Where the love go (x8)

Verse 2

Cause I wished for a better life
For a better wife
And then it came to me
Living in the moments nice
Grass ain't always greener
Other chick might be meaner
But watch your life go downhill
When you get between her
Thighs I like to spread ‘em
But most of these chicks are venom
So I can't get with ‘em
The others
I can't forget ‘em
And to the next one I meet
I'm hoping she the one
So we can gaze at the sun
And contemplate a son
But maybe not
Maybe now is all I got
Fuck it, take it and rock
Maneuver to the top, and
Claim my spot and
Promote my positon
And be thankful for these lyrics
I provisioned
Man listen

Transition

Where the love go (x8)

Verse 3

So now I'm plane hopping
Movement, nobody stopping
Whether for profit or not
I’m gone rock it - like
Stone age
The back or the first page
Since first grade
A dreamer, no matter age
Never could fit in the box
So many live in
Never was willing
To sell myself just to get in
Never name drop
Just to get the famed spot
Operate on my own merits in the same arts

Transition

Where the love go (x8)
