lyrics

Introspect’s Verse:
Not one negative thing I can say
Cuz that’s where we kicked freestyles all day
That’s where we were given birth
That’s where my life took a turn,

Aver hit me up and told me we should kick it
I agreed it had been a minute
I was writing every single night and day
But I never thought, we have our own mixtape

I was listening to Slug and Doom
and I started thinking bout all the things we can do
Infatuated with the way the wordplay would just carry me
cuz even when I fell down it would pick me up steadily

And now I’m readily attacking the hurt
Cuz I knew that I could make it since the day of my birth
We all searching for serenity and heaven on earth
Never thought that I would find it inside of these words.

Aver’s Verse:
The garage my secret paradise
hidden in the back hip hop heads feel alive
yo feel it in the vibes feel inside of your spine
beats banging so hard lose track of all time
cus this is the place where the universe collided
created four mcs that began rhyming in
a place smaller than a house but louder than a mouse
neighbors never complained because they love the sound
Profound lyricist sitting on a couch wishin
decided to get up to make the people listen
so every single line is for those who spent time
freestyles on the side supported with every dime
no weed joke intended elevated with the sentence
started from the bottom now midway making progression
so pursue your dreams even if they start in the garage
your on this planet now but later take off to the stars

Ceez’s Verse:
Hip-hop loungin' now we straight clowning,
Speakers banging now we freestyling,
Like a bboy on a card board box,
Like the graff heads painting walls with art,
Nothing but love for the culture,
Golden boy putting up a fight like Oscar de la Hoya'
Put my city back on the map,
Humble Neglected Lyricist killing every track,
Came here to provide the sound,
This garage music HNL putting it down,
For the S-O-UTH mothafucking city of the gates,
What that spell? South Gate!
Where I reside garage chilling all day,
Sleeping on us is like eating without saying grace,
Peace god bless, Ceez is the name..
