Toast - Nappy Roots, Lando Ameen

I’m on some real spit, real quick

I’m wishing folk the best, even if they wished the opposite

I hop the fence, and walked a mile, through ups and downs decide to smile

The choice is mine, I choose to grind, and I’ll try, until it’s fuckin' time

Ashes to ashes, toast, glasses to glasses

Sometimes the lick is never quick, it comes as slow as molasses

Patience, is a practice, that’s perfected and mastered

And I’m a novice when it comes to this knowledge that I’m after

I’m chasing, my own dreams, as you should too with a passion

Sometimes I get distracted, side tracked, by the ratchets

It’s tragic, one day you here and then you gone like it’s magic

I’m just traveling through the maze, using waze like in traffic

Life’s a rotten bastard, until your placed in a casket

Nothing is for certain, other than death and your taxes

In which we all pay, I’ll prolly rap until I’m all gray

And forever keep it Nappy even though we all caint

Cause Sometimes I be feeling like I’m dying sometimes

Sometimes I be all up in my feelings sometimes

Window pain I be out here trippin' sometimes

It’s okay, it’s okay ya’ll

I be in my feelings sometimes

Guess that’s when I’m feeling like I’m dying

They say be positive, I’m trying

But when I smile, I feel I’m lying

I know, Fishscales you good bruh you still alive

Been in this game doing your thang yet you just arrived

And better days still ahead bruh you’ll be surprised

Plus you made it pass the point most others demise

I know I know

Head high chest out walk wit pride

I know

Granny died part of me died yet she go where I go

Smokin' a joint fifth of bourbon spillin' in car doe

I know I’m such a mess but I’m fully blessed

So much better than I was from my first arrest

So many people in this world live with so much less

Here’s a toast to the folks out here living stressed

Cause sometimes I be feeling like I’m dying sometimes

Sometimes I be all up in my feelings sometimes

Window pain I be out here trippin' sometimes

It’s okay, it’s okay ya’ll

I be in my feelings sometimes

Guess that’s when I’m feeling like I’m dying

They say be positive, I’m trying

But when I’m smile, I feel I’m lying

I know

I’d like to make a toast

Never had a whole lot but we made the most

Swapping goods treat the block like a trading post

Tryin' to get our bread up like some raisin toast

Get it… bread up, raising toast

They been shooting round the clock since May the 1st

Been trained to kill the ops since their date of birth

So when it cracks off they’re gone fade you first

Cuz when it’s time to pop, you’re a faded shirt

Cause sometimes I be feeling like I’m dying sometimes

Sometimes I be all up in my feelings sometimes

Window pain I be out here trippin' sometimes

It’s okay, it’s okay ya’ll

Cause sometimes I be feeling like I’m dying sometimes

Sometimes I be all up in my feelings sometimes

Window pain I be out here trippin' sometimes

It’s okay, it’s okay ya’ll
