Graveyard Shift

Wake up we got stuff to do.

Work while they sleeping.

2 in the morning, the smell of loud

following you through the studio

caterers came through, we had a dinner to remember

got the wine pouring, now i’m in motion

ready for action, finna’ tackle this graveyard shift

the perfect time to work is while everyone is sleeping

i’ve already started the day that you’re beginning to prepare for

i’ve already dropped decades worth of material,

plenty of servings to go around

i’m afraid that 142 books might not be enough

to satisfy your cravings, so you know i gotta bring you some more

piped the sour, now i’m back on track

me and my crew are wide awake, we ain’t going to bed today

it’s a graveyard shift, we all ready for it

i really want you to hear what i got coming next

the themes that i am exploring with will blow you away, just wait

be patient with me, it takes a lot to complete the process of creativity

i don’t speak figuratively just to impress or because i have a way with words

lyric has become my next form of conversation,

i’m ready to tackle other languages once i perfect my English

savage writer would become a colossal commodity worldwide,

wouldn’t you agree?

you can’t deny i

you can’t deny the essence dat’ my vocabularies bring,

it’s like biting into pineapples

you gotta chop them up to get to the softness of the fruit

this is a graveyard shift, all phones are off at the moment

why get rest?

this is my time to let my inner artisan run wild

i’m feeling so inspired, i just want to write and record nonstop

i’m feeling so inspired, i can take on just about any task handed down to me

take your wine and watch i transform that into liquid gold

graveyard shift is popping,

it’s the destination to be at night
