(Pops on the phone): “Hey San it’s your pops, umm, I know you’re probably busy, but I just wanted to remind you….. Whatever you do today when you don’t have to will determine how you live tomorrow when you can’t help it. Keep the faith and Do the Work.
[Verse 1]
Holla at a nigga like San where you been?
I been vibin’, I been coolin’, I been straight
Tryna get my mind right cause a real nigga tryna be great
Want to start but where to begin?
I been writin’, I been rollin’ I been workin’
And though it’s all good can’t shake the fact I feel uncertain
Like what its all worth? Where I’m going? Who I’m gon be? How I’m knowing?
Will I live to see or have to die to find out that heaven just a piece of mind I been blind bout
But shit crazy (man shit so crazy)
I ain’t never felt pressure like this before between the weight of worlds and my girl menstrual flow
And tryna make moves to outshine the minstrel show cause nowadays niggas thrive being stereotypes
They diseases venereal type
I better not catch a neh-nother nigga like you at a show swear to God I’m built to bury your type
Just to earn a damn stripe for the hype and homage
Rippin’ ligaments to break bondage, honest
No predicament is too onerous, promise
Blessings imminent for this modest novice
I’m too in tune with being myself for the sake of my mind for the sake of my health
No mistaking my time nor replacing my wealth
Got a bank full of love and a pocket full of self
Move with stealth can’t let the watching eyes define me
Never let another man’s fears confine me
I shine divinely, now you intrigued
And never mind the timing beat the eulogy, it’s like (Imma)

[Hook]
Tell the fam we straight we celebrate by toastin’
But lately I been over thinkin’ overdosin’
I got metric tons of pressure on my brain
Lots of stress and lots of strain
Blessed be my Nova-Cane

Novacane (x4)

Maybe I’m addicted, maybe I’m just strange
Sometimes I feel conflicted, but this what ease my pain
Blessed be me Nova-Cane




[Verse 2]
No more strangers cause I know the dangers (No more strangers cause I know the dangers)
No more liquor it just fuels the anger (Well…. Heh)
Apologies they don’t amount to much (Nah)
And if they really loved you they would stay in touch
But who am I to judge and hold grudge against you
Blame you for shit I did then pretend you
Ain’t never did nothing for a nigga like me
Knowing damn well you a nigga like me
With a pile of debt, a lot of regret, a mountain of misfortune a lack of respect
For your health know your self-esteem need a check
On the verge of a wreck, need to purge the neglect need to learn to connect
Shit crazy, little brother bout to have a baby
Funny how things change daily, but lately I been feelin’ this feelin’ been killin’ me slow
I can’ figure what appeal to me mo’
All the lack of attention I get in the mist of the spit, all the love that I get for the shit that I did or the fact that I really want mo’ man I really don’t know
Can you blame me? Half of my life I been half-crazy, other half I was afraid and lazy
And a quarter of that just an estranged escapee
Self-hatred caged me (Almost insane)
But when the beast released it was a feast
Deceased was all the doubts, the nay-says, defeats, the false truths, deceits
Momentum increased now peace (Imma)

[Hook]

[San]
As much as we love to hate it we’re grateful
Excruciating elation, a reminder you’re alive and well
Mind, body and soul biz
Just don’t become addicted to how dope to cope is

{Bridge x3}
Tryna hot box roll the windows up need some more of that
Straight shots pour it in a cup gon and throw it back
Tell your homegirl I’m tryna fuck like I owed her that
Pray to God I don’t make no more mess releasing stresses

[Hook]

Yea. Blessed be my Nova-Cane
