Uh…
Best kept secret but the fam know
Trying to save a little green like Mando
Many come and go but your man though…
Know my worth that’s why I’m substantial
This is the way you make a banger and you make a difference
This is the way you shhh a hater and make’em listen
This is the way you pay it forward and you pay with interest
Uh, trying to learn you youngin’, pay attention
I done failed more times than most have tried, traits of a winner
Since rocking temper tapers, been trying to taper my temper
A cooler head that’s prevailing but always ready to cook’em
From Maryland is where I’m hailing but I made my name in Brooklyn
A galaxy far away from Splash parties and cabarets
The home team colors are mustard and cabernet
Tagging up in alleyways unsure we’ll graduate
Memories feel like an infinite loop of Saturday
Cartoons and kung fu theatre, seemingly unrelated
Til you realize some of the shit we’ve been kickin’ is animated
For your edutainment only get better and I'ma claim it
Reigning underground champ that's never had an arraignment
Wai'mint…
Black of All Trades, Renaissance Stan
Modern-day Harlem Renaissance Man him and his fam
Some grown up’s that got more growing to do, 1-2-1-2
Living the life I worked toward but never thought that it carry through
So what do you do, when some of your dreams come true, people look up to you
They see that you grew, shit that was hard to see, clearly within your view
Walk in your truth, tap into God within you, nobody harder than you
When I walk in the booth, do what I do, rhymes just flow from out of the blue
And turn into green, know what I mean, since a teen, been living my dream
Had to recharge but I’m back on the scene, I’m workin harder than a machine
All apart of my daily routine, all or nothing no in between
Kinda extreme for you, but me, being great, kinda my thing
Walking the path we pathed ‘cause our ancestor left the light on
Wrote our stories on stars when they couldn’t find shit to write on
Krylon over Orion been chosen to get my shine on
Turn the mic on, watch me grip it with the strength of a python, I’m on
My hero’s journey, I swear it’s the stuff of legend
That make men into Gods and my birthday is on the 7th
Of January, which makes me a goat. It must be destined
Been giving them what they needed and they ain’t even request it, I must be
The best kept secret but the fam know
Trying to save a little green like Mando
Many come and go but Stan though…
Know his worth that’s why I’m substantial
This is the way you make a banger and you make a difference
This is the way you shhh a hater and make’em listen
This is the way you pay it forward and you pay with interest
Uh, trying to learn you youngin’, pay attention
Listen
