David Blaine (Inspired by Emakulent) (House Mix)

[Intro] (Talkin’) Yeah… Slow ride… Third Ward nights… Smoove… [Verse 1] Make them boys vanish away, on some David Blaine, Say my name, plastered all over the place. Know the actors get played, come kick it with Johnny Cage, Hands lit like Liu Kang, set the booth up in flames. Think before you replay if you ain’t unlock Rain, That’s just part of the game, pressure come with the fame. Love just called, told me, “Boy, unblock Pain,” I laughed… they one and the same. Refrain… Ain’t no fathers where we came. Only Big Poppa and Big Daddy Kane, No corrections ever made. Rest assured knowin’ my whole section ate, Unc gone off that Ace of Spades. Jokers wearin’ diamonds, that’s the hand they played, When the truth hit the light, watch the mask all fade. Whip big shh, but don’t become a slave, To what life gave—we made lemonade. You Minute Maid, couldn’t assimilate, Like “innit, mate?” with a whole different way. Liverpool in my living room, kickin’ game overseas, Open space, big dreams floatin’ with the breeze. Hear a big bang, then a big boom, shake the whole place, Can’t carry dead weight—word to Mase. Keep a case, ridin’ shotty through the night, Every move calculated, every move precise. Still thank God every morning that I wake, ‘Cause tomorrow ain’t promised, that’s a gamble we take. [Hook] Slow it down, let the city breathe, Everybody got a story underneath. Purple skies while I’m ridin’ clean, Third Ward nights feel like a movie scene. If it’s love, why it feel like pain? Every lesson left another stain. Some disappear like David Blaine, Still I rise, never changed my name. [Verse 2] Late-night cruise with the slab sittin’ low, Neon lights got the boulevard glow. Windows cracked, let the memories flow, Thinkin’ ’bout everybody that I used to know. Some switched lanes when the weather got rough, Some talked big but they never showed up. I stayed solid, even when it got tough, Built my house on faith when enough wasn’t enough. Grandma prayed while the bills stacked high, Mama wiped tears but she still held pride. Learned early every smile tell lies, So I read people’s souls before I read their eyes. Now they see the vision, call it overnight, They ain’t see the darkness, they just see the lights. Every scar got a verse that I had to write, Every loss gave another reason to fight. No shortcuts, just miles on the road, Heavy is the head when you carry the load. Still I thank God every chance I get, Can’t fold now, I ain’t finished yet. [Bridge] Love keep callin’… Pain keep callin’ too. Different voices… Same ringtone. Life keep testin’… I’m still answerin’. Windows down… Heart wide open. [Verse 3] They said slow down, I said watch me glide, South side soul with that Houston pride. Every setback became my drive, Now the whole city feelin’ my vibe. Built from pressure, never cracked inside, Truth don’t need nowhere to hide. If you know, then you know the code, Stay ten toes on every road. I ain’t worried ‘bout who don’t clap, Real ones know where the heart stay at. Every chapter made another fact, God wrote the script—I just live the act. Say my name when they talk that talk, Every step left a permanent mark. Still humble every time I spark, ’Cause stars shine brightest after dark. [Outro / Hook] Slow it down… let the city breathe… Everybody got a story underneath. Ride through Third Ward, candy paint gleam, Still chasin’ every one of my dreams. If it’s love, why it feel like pain? Guess they both wear the same last name. Some disappear like David Blaine… Me? I’m still here… Say my name.
