lyrics

Introspect Verse:
Put some milk inside my coffee,
Winter time in southern Cali but it don’t get frosty
I like to synchronize my mental when I flow on instrumentals
The way that the pen is leaking it’s just landing oh so gentle

Oh so gentle man I’m just tryna get in the mood,
I just got back from a semester at school
Ceez brought the beats so they gotta be smooth
Ra1 and Aver hit up Droe let’s get in the booth

And you know its bout that time again,
This time a year ago I was writing “Way Back When”
We were barely given birth in the game,
Keep it pushin’ till HNL is a household name

We ain’t never had our back scratched
Matched that with hunger so we never flop like flapjacks
We livin’ life for a reason
And now we back together to work through the holiday season.

Aver Verse: Its cold outside but i'm feeling these days
cigarettes and coffee help me stay awake
caffeine running through me but the hunger motivates
every step taken so success I will take
I'm just a bear that doesn't really get to hibernate
I'm wide awake eating scraps off my winter plate
ideas running through my head so i stay warm
the jacket is armor but i still feel torn
my two worlds collide so wheres the line drawn
its been bitter in the winter since I was born
its been getting better but I still want more
scraps in the belly but i'm aiming for that door
open to the stage we straight performing raw
a cool calm collective defying the seasons y'all
a season is but a moment but hnl is eternal
I know cus' I know our bars are in your journals

Ceez Verse:
Back 2 kickin' it bustin' free's & chillin' with,
Introspect spreading good vibes got my neighbors feeling it,
Yeah..Comeback season on these cold nights,
French Vanilla sippin' got my body warm for a cheap price,
Holiday season got my pockets with holes,
In other words I'm half broke,
So get a taste of what's on our plate,
Nothing but food scraps so get ready to press play,
Tell yo' momma Tell yo' cousin Tell yo' Auntie,
No matter the weather my vision never foggy,
Straight cruising with the high beams,
Me & the fellas ready to post up at a party,
Have a celebration that my boys back in town,
Hungry Hooligans reppin' it proud,
Live beats Live freestyles so let me see them hands now,
Rock to the rhythm and just bounce..
