Do I Exist
• Written by Kanvas
Intro (0:18)
Pull up in the Rolls, pop the trunk,
I got a secret\
Chrome reflection lulls you, my tint
Too dark to see through\
Bass kicking so hard it's got you seeing double,
Call that synesthesia\
Taste the bass, patterns never seen before
Wake up with a bad case of Amnesia\
Verse (0:30)
Party popping, VIP,
Nightclub waits for me to be showing\
Knowing I ain't doing much, these
Bitches won't leave me alone\
Stoned out my mind on Jack Herer,
Finish my blunt before we get there\
I know you won't be tripping and such, but
This shit I ain't sharing, especially my Dutch\
These trichomes like crystals, my future I see
Wrapped up in this hemp leaf, like geometry,
Got all this tree and not enough hours in the day
I might have to do this the Lumberjack's way\
Verse 2 (1:12)
I got here from food stamps and government aid
Now I hear every day how they taking away\
The foundations supporting communities like mine
Where I grew and realized I needed to find\
An alternative lifestyle, out there and away
From the drug dealing and lack of dreams
Surrounding my childhood days\
This ain't an excuse for who I am today, but
God damn if I tell you that I am ashamed
Of the man who I eventually became\
Work, work, never relent
Minimum wage to pay your rent\
Before we calculate the rest
And place your fam under duress\
These bills is choking out the air
You need to dream if you could dare\
Remember where you came from, then
Understand success comes from within\
Hook (2:24)
Face it,
You could have been the one to make it,\
Take it,
Everything around is yours to break
Rules, Boundaries,\
Quandaries no one understands,
Yet they act like they precisely know
Exactly what drives this man\
Quantum physics tells me this,
"Only when you look, do I
exist"\
Verse 3 (2:45)
Tell me that you get me dog,
Like Dr. Phil, just set me right\
I have problems sure that's right
Yet still I sleep so good at night\
I understand my flaws and strengths
Banks hold my cash, and law retreats\
I come to town with bars so tight, and then
Hit a different club every single night\
No wonder they fear when my name is uttered once
I plunder, objective indifference, I have a hunch\
That shit rap shit is for me, I ain't even 40,
So consider this what you could call a
Warning\
I don't have a signer or too much to back me
Other than a mind like no other, distracting\
Unique in my vision and one thing is clear
That without an omission,
There's reason to fear the name.\
Hook 2 (3:38)
Face it,
You could have been the one to make it,\
Take it,
Everything around is yours to break
Rules, Boundaries,\
Quandaries no one understands,
Yet they act like they precisely know
Exactly what drives this man\
Quantum physics tells me this,
"Only when you look, do I
exist"\
