Against Tha Grain

[Intro: Jae Skeese]

Uh

I'm not the usual I go against the grain

I'm not the usual I go against the grain (Yeah)

[Verse 1: Jae Skeese]

I was on my mission for money

Hella things was coming secondary, like the month of February

Fake and snake vibes, you never catch 'em near me

As far as rap, I bury cats like pet cemetery

Still ain't universally accepted

Yeah, this lesson sketched up in my theories

It's cool, I keep it smoother than the leathers in the seven series

Ain't no stress you hear me

My shorty asked me, "Where you think this gift of God will get you?"

I said around the world, we travel cities packin' venues

These ain't no corny bars, these raps official

They [?] just like a canvas shoppin' bag that's packed with raps and nickels

I put that on my dad's initials

I'm from the hood where brother brandish pistols over petty beef and standard issues

So our physical interactions it wouldn't be safe and handshakes, you never know which one could be your last day

And life ain't all peaches and cream and crab cakes, that's why I hustle hard

Things ain't working out when you stuck in some bad shapes

My brother's fours up, that bond is unbreakable

It's unmistakable, there's so much love it's unexplainable

Look, the eyes see what they've been trained to view, my God never blessed me with a basic view

Watch where imma take this to

[Chorus: Jae Skeese]

Look

I'm not the usual I go against the grain

I stood tall when plenty would have folded from the pain

Check the schematics how it's moulded in my frame

Solid I remain until the ending of my days

My words impactful when they spoken on the stage

I scheme like [?] no I ain't normal with the plays

Check the schematics how it's moulded in my frame

Solid I remain until the ending of my days

[Verse 2: Flee Lord]

I got a ride backseat in the truck nowadays

I'm feeling like a boss but some think I'm a player

Rent the reek and fuck what they talking, I can't hear 'em speaking

Nigga fake we pickin' 'em off like we playin' defence

[Hide up and tactic ?] rhyme for my mathematics

Selling merch from the turf and they lined up to grab it

Passionate with bars, we clashin' it with stars

Sayin' prayers for my peers, while I'm ashing the cigar

At least five times a day I'm busting hundred dollar licks

One phone call to my youngins they be running down with blicks

When I'm finished with this verse I'm throwing a crack tour

If you cop a quarter brick then you gettin' it half off

Ballin's falling off now all of 'em back poor

Show 'em where you live they kick in your back door

I said you show 'em where you live they kick in your back door

[Chorus: Jae Skeese]

I'm not the usual I go against the grain

I stood tall when plenty would have folded from the pain

Check the schematics how it's moulded in my frame

Solid I remain until the ending of my days

My words impactful when they spoken on the stage

I scheme like [?] no I ain't normal with the plays

Check the schematics how it's moulded in my frame

Solid I remain until the ending of my days

[Verse 3: Conway the Machine]

Look

I feel like cap, I won't cross my heart for no star spangle

When you realise this shit designed for you to fail then it's gon change you

Attack your character from all angles

Give my shirt off my back to these niggas and they still not at all grateful

Counting my blessings man, I couldn't be more grateful

My grandmama used to say I pray that the Lord save you

My bitch looking like she fell from heaven in Palm Angels

You know it's the orange wraith when the don came through

Sending niggas to God I'm giving them all halos

Large drakos, leaving the car mangled

Living on Richlawn we couldn't afford cable

But it was always warm plates on my mom's table

Now look at me in my city I'm for sure staple

Leading by a land slide not a small ratio

Richer you get the more they gon hate you, fuck 'em this russian K punch 'em like Lomachenko

[Chorus: Jae Skeese]

I'm not the usual I go against the grain

I stood tall when plenty would have folded from the pain

Check the schematics how it's moulded in my frame

Solid I remain until the ending of my days

My words impactful when they spoken on the stage

I scheme like [?] no I ain't normal with the plays

Check the schematics how it's moulded in my frame

Solid I remain until the ending of my days
