Bright Side 04:20
I used to be in my room so lazy. On the ps4 24/7 daily. Instead of writing lyrics for what makes me. I'm acting like this rapping life ain't me. Tell me why am I so lazy, no laptop. To make beats only rage me. On the phone but the lagging makes me crazy. Bad taste like KFC's own gravy. We know the saying sticks & stones may break my bones. Stop caring when fakers thought It was a mad joke. Laughing thinking Bobby won't stand tall. Pretending to applaud my mad flows. I wanna achieve this goal so badly. I wishing when I make my move it doesn't go badly. I dream about the haters screaming higher than a banshee. With animals coming out the games like jumanji. No one knows what it's like to have my personality. Pretend to be someone in this reality. Going with the flow of catastrophe. People think you like my bars but I know you're lying, see. So I keep going non stop grind time. B o double B Y spitting bars from my mind. Try to keep it on the low, release it on the right time. While asking myself wondering. Am I far from the bright side. So much darkness corrupt my soul. I can feel it all around my mind. But I'm a fighter for my prime goal. Am I standing on the right side. So much darkness around my life. Ain't shining like a trophy. Doesn't mean I won't be all right. Am I far from the bright side. So much darkness corrupt my soul. I can feel it all around my mind. But I'm a fighter for my prime goal. Am I standing on the right side. So much darkness around my life. Ain't shining like a trophy. Doesn't mean I won't be all right. Feel like most of my life a nightmare can't wake up. What I see & hear is harsh than a bad type of break up. Dreamt of getting whack a mole when I get my head up. What I did or said in the past is starting to wreck my head up. Autistic boy i'm on my knees for a prayer. Praying for improvement with my bars written in paper. Put it on a table if I was gambler making wager. Instead of using to get girls around me like a player. I'm calm, cool & collective, I'm sharp as a razor I'm still fired up, I'm living a trail blazer. I'm a chef cooking up the beats, then add the flavor. Then I serve it on a plate like a fucking waiter. Black autistic nobody ain't afraid of the danger. Imma flash a beam in the sky with my laser. That's a signal saying releasing at right time. Showing this is my time, my time, my time. The darkness always help me when writing rhymes. The inspiration needed in these dying time. Keep moving fast that I call it lightning time. I'm done playing myself nearly 90 time. Am I far from the bright side. So much darkness corrupt my soul. I can feel it all around my mind. But I'm a fighter for my prime goal. Am I standing on the right side. So much darkness around my life. Ain't shining like a trophy. Doesn't mean I won't be all right. Am I far from the bright side. So much darkness corrupt my soul. I can feel it all around my mind. But I'm a fighter for my prime goal. Am I standing on the right side. So much darkness around my life. Ain't shining like a trophy. Doesn't mean I won't be all right. I'll be alright I'll be alright. I'll be alright I hate coming on the wrong time. More madness in my own life. My own thing my own style. Am I far from the bright side. The darkness corrupt my soul. I can feel it all around my mind. But I'm a fighter for my prime goal. Am I standing on the right side. So much darkness around my life. Ain't shining like a trophy. Doesn't mean I won't be all right. Am I far from the bright side. Am I far from the bright side. Am I far from the bright side. Am I far from the bright side. Am I far from the bright side. So much darkness corrupt my soul. I can feel it all around my mind. But I'm a fighter for my prime goal. Am I standing on the right side. So much darkness around my life. Ain't shining like a trophy. Doesn't mean I won't be all right.

Show My Best 04:46
I had a dream I was on a long journey hope not the wrong path. Feeling blown away by superman's strong breath. I can feel the wind so cold it gave me frostbite wishing I could get home so I can sleep in a hot bath. See myself with artists of my dreams and I cross path. Dream of collaboration to make a hot track. Blow up in the studio like we bomb that and maybe smash it like you showing off the hulk's wrath. Understand music's all I got so I can't and won't breakdown. Gotta show my brother what I've got so he won't break out. On the same speech on how I haven't eat sleep breath music give it up as career but I'll never take it down. Living in my nightmare can I please wake now. Got me slapping and slapping so I really need to wake now. Get my feet up to make up the years that I waste now. Keep my style medium-rare grilled steak now. Feeling like I'm on a quest, put my skills to the test. Won't stop till I show my best. I know'll be a stress, but I'm showing more than less. Won't stop till I show my best. My mind's bleeding doubts, keep trying to bring me down. But I'll still show my best. Got now and years ahead to make my music big till death. Till then I'll show my best. Sometimes I hate who I am, sometimes I love who I wanna be. Cooking up this track that's the only chef I wanna be. Gotta show these fools that I ain't lazy I ain't fucking weak. Showing my brother surrendering rap life that ain't me. Saying be realistically is what you're seriously telling me. I won't let it be a hobby I'll decide what I'll let it be. I don't care if I'm behind or that I'm over 20. Leap of faith that's the only line I'll ever need. I might hit a nightclub with my friends or flirt with girls out of my league. Do it free time even when I'm achieving rapping destiny. I'll digging deep you won't believe autistic boy rapping fast like Dizzee, NF, Logic lyrical beast. Having that to my advantage. Wrapping round like wrapping bandage. Bobby Ray I've got the magic. B O Double B Y Magic. Having that to my advantage. Wrapping round like wrapping bandage. Bobby Ray I've got the magic. B O Double B Y savage. Feeling like I'm on a quest, put my skills to the test. Won't stop till I show my best. I know'll be a stress, but I'm showing more than less. Won't stop till I show my best. My mind's bleeding doubts, keep trying to bring me down. But I'll still show my best. Got now and years ahead to make my music big till death. Till then I'll show my best. Hey Yeah, Yeah Yeaaaaah. I'll Show My Best. I need to prove myself I'm strong to fight my inner demon. Doubt and laziness is always been my inner demon. Getting in my head and then you're asking for a beaten. Don't have my rage burning hot like my favorite season. I need to prove myself I'm strong to fight my inner demon. Doubt and laziness is always been my inner demon. Getting in my head and then you're asking for a beaten. Don't have my rage burning hot like my favorite season. See I'm sick of feeling sloppy. Focus only on my hobby. Bearly saving up my money. Only me can only stop me. My intention to show my father I got the ambition. Got willpower banging like gong bell listen. Black Autistic Nobody on a damn mission. I can see myself high stage that's my damn vision. Slow it down conceited then here the man dissin. I'll show my best song representing my existance. If I wish for my style pimp I call Xzibit. Run it up hit max hope no accident. Showing my beats and my lyrics for it so many writing. Having my art place on the wall like an exhibition. Pedal to the metal. Intended to show potential. My goals always essential. Expanding a brand new level. More experience calm and well careful. Do I flop on cover, yes several. Fakers see a joke and laughable. I don't care about the devils. Boogie try to in the deep sea with no life. See myself in a reflection saying your minds mess. You had all times grinding. I'll do whatever it takes my mission to show my best. Feeling like I'm on a quest, put my skills to the test. Won't stop till I show my best. I know'll be a stress, but I'm showing more than less. Won't stop till I show my best. My mind's bleeding doubts, keep trying to bring me down. But I'll still show my best. Got now and years ahead to make my music big till death. Till then I'll show my best. Won't stop till I show my best. Won't stop till I show my best. But I'll still show my best. Till then I'll show my best.

Clean Slate 03:56
So many times I wish I had my older brother's brain. When you're young shit cute till the colour drain. People really doubting & i'm the one to blame. Put a dagger in my back feeling never-ending pain. So predictable it's pathetic feeling under restrain. Reach to the sky but I'm brought down to my lowest lane. My responsibilty to be tough so I block the pain. Lift my confidence but I wouldn't let you break it bane. I wouldn't need a knuckles to be tasting pain. Feel my body in a blaze, when a rider whips his chain. Wondering what I've done to get my song a lot of dislike Better wipe it off clean like a flithy stain. Black autistic nobody soaring high everyday. My mistakes turn to ash make it fade away. Guess it takes 6 & golden glove To see the worst I made decimate. I need a Clean Slate. From the bad songs created. I need a Clean Slate & get this cinerated. I need a Clean Slate. Cause I feel like Suffocating. I need a Clean Slate. I need a Clean Slate. From the bad songs created. I need a Clean Slate & get this cinerated. I need a Clean Slate. Cause I feel like Suffocating. I need a Clean Slate. Verse 2: I don't care if dumb boys send negative feedbacks Or girls giving me shades for songs release man. Trying to grow my fanbase when I'm planting the seeds man. I'm so determined & ambitious that I'm a beast man. Staying true to the grind me making mean tracks. While enduring the irritation of mean chats. I'm a dark & light boy with sour & sweet facts. I'll just keep dripping till shit blows like a leaked gas. Everyday I'm spinning like Taz-Mania. Hype since I walked inside Aviva Stadium. Walk into the building encounter musician form songs better than mine But my nerves of steel strong like Vibranium. When I draw a straight line is to discover me. Like an archeologist made a discovery. Making my own style with all these accessory. But I'm staying on the path like I'm on road to recovery I need a Clean Slate. From the bad songs created. I need a Clean Slate & get this cinerated. I need a Clean Slate. Cause I feel like Suffocating. I need a Clean Slate. I need a Clean Slate. From the bad songs created. I need a Clean Slate & get this cinerated. I need a Clean Slate. Cause I feel like Suffocating. I need a Clean Slate. So I can never be hesitant. Wooooooooooah. Wooooooooooah. Wooooooooooah. Huuuuuuuuuuuuh. Huuuuuuuuuuuuh. Huuuuuuuuuuuuh. I need a Clean Slate From the bad songs created. I need a Clean Slate & get this cinerated. I need a Clean Slate. Cause I feel like Suffocating. I need a Clean Slate. I need a Clean Slate. From the bad songs created. I need a Clean Slate & get this cinerated. I need a Clean Slate. Cause I feel like Suffocating. I need a Clean Slate. So I can never be hesitant. Heyyyy uh. I need a Clean Slate. I need a Clean Slate woah. I need a Clean Slate.

I would say yes joining in festival rapping if that was actually the chance they give. Cleaning off the struggles on me it's so abrasive. It got me flying up the air like a Grayson. If an offer's handed to me gonna take it. Bake it hot for golden top call it pastry glazing. Dreamt the hard work reward so sweet I can taste it. MGK been going big before he laced it. Crazy like the Game's last freestyle not playing. Dragon's bringing out the fire rappers start slaying. Some people were so old school they couldn't contemplate it. People like me are always destined for greatness. Ever heard of Andrew Tate facts are what he saying. In the room doing nothing you know what he saying. I feel the rage coming up no super saiyan. Have your goals placed on the wall when you cello tape it. Evolution has begun were getting creative. Video & money-making software are the means they give. We're shaking things hard like a natural disaster. Ignoring those who made me the unfriendly Casper. Forking on these loop round & round pasta. I'm gonna catch them all like a Pokemon Master. I'm the Man With The Plan. That's the reason I get up on my feet when I stand. I'm the Man With The Plan. Analyze, strategize while I'm in command. I'm the Man With The Plan. Black autistic nobody reaching higher than I can tell Molina I'm flying to the sky till I feel the Power Of The Sun. I'm the Man With The Plan. That's the reason I get up on my feet when I stand. I'm the Man With The Plan. Analyze, strategize while I'm in command. I'm the Man With The Plan. Black autistic nobody reaching higher than I can tell Molina I'm flying to the sky till I feel the Power Of The Sun. I'll shoot till it impacts on the chart like a missile. Vomiting words straight from the top that's being sick bro. Working ever angle till I find the one that clicks though. Magicians aren't the only ones with sleeves full of tricks woah. Capturing my chance in a jar sealed with a lid go. Perform in a recording studio or in a big show. I'm so initiated you won't see me flop or flinch no. Going yabba dabba doo on stage like Freddy Flinstone. Lyrical G yo. Working tirelessly getting to sleep no. I'll be gatling so long forget to reload. My boy Twitching the game watching the streams flow. Plan score for a triple instead of free throw. Plan to measure up high I'm talking kilo. Digging deep for the green I don't mean eco. All those zero flipped me over Aikido. What I'm make it so big I'll play on Vevo. Then I'm coming again just like a sequel. Make sure the album is better or least an equal. This ain't a game but I'm wishing for cheat codes. Flip the verse flat on the floor like judo. Stomp my foot in the ring not talking sumo. Holding one card on the hand not talking Uno. What's on my board is murder mystery like Cluedo. I'm speeding what I'm doing ain't going slow as turtle. That be fucking stupid I might as well go in circle. I'm the dog shaking my head up & down like bobblehead get the girls to say Oh Yes in bed call me Churchill. Punching hard like Anthony, Scream on top of a balcony. Enduring so much of agony, Showing levels of savagery. Maintain most of my sanity when many say my rap's shitty. Saying shut up to those with the audicity. I'm the Man With The Plan. That's the reason I get up on my feet when I stand. I'm the Man With The Plan. Analyze, strategize while I'm in command. I'm the Man With The Plan. Black autistic nobody reaching higher than I can tell Molina I'm flying to the sky till I feel the Power Of The Sun. I'm the Man With The Plan. That's the reason I get up on my feet when I stand. I'm the Man With The Plan. Analyze, strategize while I'm in command. I'm the Man With The Plan. Black autistic nobody reaching higher than I can tell Molina I'm flying to the sky till I feel the Power Of The Sun. I'm the Man With The Plan. I'm the Man With The Plan. I'm the Man With The Plan. Black autistic nobody reaching higher than I can tell Molina I'm flying to the sky till I feel the Power Of The Sun.

Neverland 03:19
See me running to the clock call it hickory dickory. Black autis nobody rhyming to impossible victory. So small overweight could fit in them skinny. Want the people know my story on a journey to history. Cringe out a jaden yuki told me get your game on. I'm a player for the music than I am in PlayStation. Screaming louder than my mother everytime she's impatient. Take it out without a buzz like I played operation. You can call me racer cause I'm ready & steady. Chopping haters in the jungle when I carry machete. How dare you try to shake me till I fall you'll never break. I'll escape out of the rumble a survivor from haiti. On a marvel-ous hunt like my name should be Kraven. Swing my hands without arms nigga call me black rayman. Keep my eyes open for the future that's so raven. Only moves I wanna bust Is on the dancefloor raving. If you agree to let me take your hand. So we can reach the sky like peter pan. Flying so that we'll neverland. As we come standing tall with only a straight face. & we stand tall & brave we can take that leap of faith. Don't care of the obstacles that's gonna block our way. I'm going overdose twice shoutout to Pinero. Pretty bird on the top I call her a sparrow. Look away when I shoot jeremy did his arrows. Transform like bumblebee being from junk to camaro. Time to come out of the cube like a Jack In The Box. Chop my doubt & fear in half like lumberjacks chopping logs. Text Harlow what's poppin' he'll reply with not much. Only bars you'll get from me you won't get in corner shop. My music dream is long way but It's the highway I go. Lyric writing & beat making that's highway I know. Mind's spin like bike wheels plan to break the cycle. Ava Max I sing sweet but rap like a psycho. Wanna be phenomenal come out with more confidence. Going & grinding no turn back cause I got no more regrets. Inspire those whose born autistic nothing more nothing less. Bounce back from Ls I took nothing more nothing less. If you agree to let me take your hand. So we can reach the sky like peter pan. Flying so that we'll neverland. As we come standing tall with only a straight face. & we stand tall & brave we can take that leap of faith. Don't care of the obstacles that's gonna block our way. Independent artist han I'm riding solo. I'm a mofucking eagle always flying solo. Black autistic nobody still grinding no joke. recovery saved me from feeling so cold. Failures not an option I'm destined for greatness. So in the zone lecture from dad & bro go painless Dreamt I carried all my burdens & I told it you're weightless. You know what I'm saying. If you agree to let me take your hand. So we can reach the sky like peter pan. Flying so that we'll never land. As we come standing tall with only a straight face. & we stand tall & brave we can take that leap of faith. Don't care of the obstacles that's gonna block our way. If you agree to let me take your hand. So we can reach the sky like peter pan. Flying so that we'll neverland.

You think the girls are cute at day but you should see them at a night time. Most wanna party, posh drinking red or white wine. Some is making moves now sometimes on the right time. Standing there sexy in the queue calling it a fine line. Hit the nightclub on a weekend with my boys by my side. Checking out all these lights from the left to the right side. Looking for a Minnie girl make sure she's the right kind. I'm feeling optimistic in my prime. See the beauty so closely. It's so sexy it's hypnotizing they control me. I'll let my snapback we can wind slowly. Call me darkskin Wiley cause I'm looking boasty. You wanna go crazy girl we can play the right tunes. Personality crunchy with the body that smooth. Looking for a relationship I ain't the right dude. Better off being single that's true. See the lights pretty at ni ight. Girls looking so bright I'm blind. See the lights pretty at ni ight. I wanna make her & her & her mine. See the lights pretty at ni ight. Way you move your body I lose my mind. See the lights pretty at ni ight. Approach so, fresh so, fearless so fly At the nightclub I'm ready to get nasty. Your ex wants to shoot & score he's gotta get past me. Got more energy than you stay clear when I'm blasting. When she grabs the D please you dean need to ask me. Flirt like a gentle to girls sweet & classy. She got sweetness that rivals Sammie, Jo, Cassidy. Body baked like a cake love to get the arse piece. If sex was like a fight she'll want that arse beat. Just cause they don't flash tits. "Don't mean that they ain't flashing". Leather pants & jeans that are tight to the arse & dresses looking nova first-name fashion. In the nightclub the girls get that body loose. Me & my boys gone be ready after shot & booze. Coming look we bad boy what you gonna do. What you gonna do? See the lights pretty at night. Girls looking so bright I'm blind. See the lights pretty at night. I wanna make her & her & her mine. See the lights pretty at night. Way you move your body I lose my mind. See the lights pretty at ni ight. Approach so, fresh so, fearless so fly See the lights pretty at night. Girls looking so bright I'm blind. See the lights pretty at night. I wanna make her & her & her mine. See the lights pretty at night. Way you move your body I lose my mind. See the lights pretty at night. Approach so, fresh so, fearless so fly. See the lights pretty at night. See the lights pretty at night. At night.

I'mma slide in the middle then tip-toe. Staying calm when I do it & don't slip though. Coming out with my boys in that rich flow. I see a girl walking by with that rich glow. I can sense her playing hard to get. Call her liberty she a statuette. Being smoother than the guys that you've met. Take you deep down in the position that you've set. Got me back to love so breezy. The lines I wanna hit you with cheesy. But I'm the kind of guy that'll give you the satisfaction. On our own no lights, camera just the action. We can keep going through the A.M. You a Snapchat girl we can exchange them. If you feel it too then we'll embrace em. We could have so much fun we can't explained em. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. See how beautiful you are. You got me in a shock. You be jump starting my heart. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. What I say about you is true. If my wish involving you. I hope you make it true. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. See how beautiful you are. You got me in a shock. You be jump starting my heart. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. What I say about you is true. If my wish involving you. I hope you make it true. Gonna like me on my new shit. If you see me coming you might lose it. I got the torch I want the light to hit. Body says dance mind saying why you sit. I know you like to move it. Our friends looking at us saying that you'll hit. I mean you're the kind of girl I wanna fool with. I see my stupidity being your amusing. Being sneaky like forbidden love. Going bananas call it gorilla love. Middle fingers up like we don't give a fuck. I wanna touch your body with no permission cause. She like a gentleman bad boy hybrid. I can make your bed rock or make it seismic. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. See how beautiful you are. You got me in a shock. You be jump starting my heart. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. What I say about you is true. If my wish involving you. I hope you make it true. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. See how beautiful you are. You got me in a shock. You be jump starting my heart. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. What I say about you is true. If my wish involving you. I hope you make it true. Pretty Star Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. See how beautiful you are. You got me in a shock. You be jump starting my heart. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. What I say about you is true. If my wish involving you. I hope you make it true. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. See how beautiful you are. You got me in a shock. You be jump starting my heart. Twinkle Twinkle Pretty Star. What I say about you is true. If my wish involving you.

Champion 03:26
I see myself living like a king not a peasant. Maybe cause I the answers to many questions. Been doing this so long I don't care If I'm obsessive. The many L's I took taught me an Important lesson. If you don't succeed then try again. Any negative feelings freeze in some nitrogen. Fearless even if you fed me to the lion's den. Putting out the hottest beats like a fireman. Absolute Victory. See a big crowd absolutely ready. Chance of bailing out absolutely empty. Holdin' it together absolutely steady. Like to think that I'm the spaceship that's ready to blast off. No diss to Marshmello I prefer my mask off. You're dream is me giving up music well guess what. If you're gonna be hating on me then get off. I see myself going far ahead. I don't plan on stopping till I'm a Champion. I don't just want to make a number 1. I want it of the year like a Champion. I rather do what I love. Instead of a 9-5 working job. I see myself going far ahead. I don't plan on stopping till I'm a Champion. Didn't have money but spirit like J Hus. Learn this shit myself swear there was no trainers. Getting out off the maxtrix not look like a scum. If This was a subject I doubt I'd get an A plus. Keep on writing sparks till it blows calling it gas line. Giving up It's for people that clearly lack spine. If there's a slot for increasing fans then that's mine. I'll go to another country or through a landmine. Thats what having a strong mind will get you. If you hear the sound of distracting then press mute. Refuse to walk away the from the target I pursuit. What hurts me is nothing but paper I shred through. I know that I'm the ship ready to blast off. Rip out what holds me back like hobbs getting his cast off. Going to the wild west like a cowboy with hats on. Running to all space & time like Flash does. I see myself going far ahead. I don't plan on stopping till I'm a Champion. I don't just want to make a number 1. I want it of the year like a Champion. I rather do what I love. Instead of a 9-5 working job. I see myself going far ahead. I don't plan on stopping till I'm a Champion uh huuuuuh. Champion huuuuuh.
