I am determined My mind can't hinder the beats From hiding under sheets living two decades on that street I knew for certain That I'd grow out from the trees and get this green Nothing up my sleeve but the rhymes that I plus I had hope, aye Nothing hiding in my socks Oh there was pain I smoked but then I stopped, yup Writing similes because there's no one like me Water dripping over boy holy as can be Never saw the light but god I was close The showers always cleared the darkness I fought I thought to myself How many people dealing with the shit I dought with and who had it worse There ain't no cure for anxiety but there's irony in it Cause I was really in it to win it like there was some sort of a medal, yuh I really had to push no bush to beat around Wrote a little list of hooks that took me to the ground And now I'm here 21 with an everlasting sound Cater to the ones who really matter my best friends be jamming to this And Corey be losing his shit Reminiscing on times I'd freestyle or remix a shitty song While we laughed our ass off just playing cod Special place in my heart for the ones who really gave a little time to listen to ya boy My tires never gonna be punctured An introduction for the function I made Smile on my face rising up the life I'm glad to be alive Happy to say that I'm glad that I survived Happy to say that I'm glad that I survived Aye aye doubler be spitting fire that's in affect

I don't flex Cut the shit Take a breath I am blessed I am blessed baby boy Elliott when I'm stressed I take a breath Cut out all that other shit mane I don't flex this watch up on my wrist, this chain all down my neck Sentimental from my Grandad I am blessed baby boy Elliott when I'm stressed I take a breath Cut out all that other shit mane, aye These hedges are never clipped Your name its irrelevant Try to beat around a scenic mountain you'll just get the tip (truck) You go post a sound say it's all lyrical and deep Brother you're picture book but claiming high tide A bumpy road ahead The signs all say surface level But you gon lie like they gon lie about the structure I just write fire Rap it how it is, posted in a pit, boasted through ya pics Trapping sharp as barb wire round ya fence boy (killing shit) So let me ride Let me take my time, ease my ease my mind Watch me shine I'm on my grind She be hella hella fine, so why you lying? (why you lying) This beat is the lighter the way I rhyme be sparking fires I'm fighting flames with a tank full of gas (you ice) Shit you as useful as a broken bank without cash Money heist, got no hostages or bags for the rags And you tossed the bitch for that? These metaphors a cheap the game is cheese for rats man These trains are loud but their tracks a quiet (yea, yea) Close your mouth when only facts acquired (yea, yea) I bail out at the sight of a cloud to see my son grow Blooming crazy yes my seeds watered and showered Now the weathers hot in this condition ain't the usual Am use to scolding summers in the winter time It's sunnier under this shade-sail life but shit You spade the hail Inspired by the greats, no more missing thoughts on my trail cause I don't flex (I don't) Cut the shit (cut the shit) I am blessed (I am blessed) Take a breath (take a breath) I am blessed baby boy Elliott when I'm stressed I take a breath Cut out all that other shit man I don't flex this watch up on my wrist, this chain all down my neck Sentimental from my Grandad I am blessed baby boy Elliott when I'm stressed I take a breath Cut out all that other shit mane

Faces 02:19
Faces This shit is dated like that good whisky you drink see faces In so many places so why I feel alone in crowded places These faces only come around when they need payment Only come around when they need payment A sinner a motherfucking rhyme killer Nine millimeters of hard body inside with em Globe on the sneakers, you stepping on my world Who you to define the villain when your eyes curled Got you shook, go Days are shorter borderline quarter to when I write Ways I could of been brought up in poor sections The soils mine When I pay homage or honors they're usually left with notes Never take them for granted when they planted their seed in us Keys been cut we eat it up like serving lunch from ashing blunts The only bread that I brake is in the stu with empty faces Eating good tonight because I sold the merch from shows Drink it straight from the bowl Nah homie look to your soul Push the pedal to the floor know when to stop Cause if the cops come hot you don't wanna be burnt out Word of mouth like I'm spitting these syllables to account for all the drama Whoever said that I'm not stupid smart then you're a gonna Cause I'm writing at night It helps me fight for what I like I got my rights like I've studied out my wrongs, yup You acting like you've never seen a skeleton boy Spitting the cleanest plus meanest of expertise A new season of rhyme Throw stones it's useless Protect ya neck from nooses and motherfucking bitches too, yea Puncture repair kit for my bruises The devil did not make this work for idol hands yeah I'm a A sinner a motherfucking rhyme killer Nine millimeters of hard body inside with em Globe on the sneakers, you stepping on my world Who you to define the villain when your eyes curled Go you shook, go Dope bars yeah you're snorting up these lines But you'll have to get higher to repost your phones died Got no service out there for the lame who don't got it Faces Moderations looking like you choked We got a problem for him and her Your crowd looking thin but blurred Only time tells when you gon hit the bottle clack then ya shit gets heard Faces do not listen to these so called role models Half of them spit sewer water Have cold throttles why I live at night Yea, yea, yea Don't deal with the bullshit that you posting in the day Alarm system keep at bay In-security I am with these thoughts Pay no property secure My fail safes dead locked You can't win to these faces They body plagued with hatred debating on someone's pavement As if it matters faded from all your conversations I see faces and they digging they own damn grave Ya built your coffin out of glass so go and lay in it aye

CHEW 02:33
Cause I've been up all night again question whether or not to make another cuppa I know I should be asleep but through the day is when I suffer All I need is for someone to come and break the structure up instead of falling through Nights I spend awake with you Rupture the idea of ever waking up Waking up Dreaming never taught me much I ditched Dig a grave for a later date Go crash in someone else's arms and pray they never fade away Got my psyche stuck in a hard place The pitcher throwing memories up in a safe but I don't feel it Shades are pretty useless in a time like this I wanna see my son rise not live through night time bitch Cause the chances of me seeing him were dim At the start I had to go clean my act up Perform these hour half shows cause I'm a rapper Broke my bank account yea The stakes are higher now I've been in doubt yea Nothing to gain nothing to lose Nothing to lose Is it that life's just a recluse Just a recluse I got a child to feed I'm out of food, yea I'm out of food yea I said Nothing to gain nothing to lose Nothing to lose Is it that fames just a recluse Just this recluse I got a child to feed I'm out of food I'm out of food I need some money more now so we can chew Yo yo Let me just explain this for my kid's sake I would do any motherfucking thing to get paid Currently I'm unemployed but I'll never be fake Fuck the rap to riches fuck bitches but what does that pay Wish I could just get a job School I never flogged off School was fucking hard and I tried and tried to get the grades I got But they don't matter in this day in slave All these connections in Hip-Hop went down in age I'm an adult just counting the days I made myself a name from mistakes yea yea I skin my elbows on the pavement from skating to say my hurt was raw Stressing over payment is an understatement Drowning in debt My student loans been out of credit Can barely afford rent I'm pitching myself a tent How am I suppose to vent when there's smoke all in my breath I'm bitching cause I don't rest I got mouths to feed and plates to clean but maybe I've bitten off more than I can chew Ugh Nothing to gain nothing to lose Nothing to lose Is it that life's just a recluse Just a recluse I got a child to feed I'm out of food I'm out of food I need some money more now so we can chew So we can chew

Lose MY Mind 01:32
I'm about to lose my mind in this place I'm about to lose my mind in this place I'm about to lose my mind in this place I'm about to lose my mind in this place (Aye) Get bucked all the hypocrites and the lairs I don't need tires to skrrt skrrt on ya eye lids There's never silence I work work fucking harder I put them under In the grave got you in the coffin (aye, aye) You take one hit of and you motherfucking coughing You said you got lit up off a rolled up Rothman Believe you on bit no I do not you lie often Swerve all these hoes cause these bitches they be tossing All ya shit out the window when you are just off and I had a foursome and that what was so awful Heard he bad man I'm Steve Rodgers Make the pussy weep, three feet, have caution Stand too close and he'll have your family mourning Wanna spit more but the rhyme got boring Hopefully mature when YDoubleR is touring But right now I'm alone enduring cause I'm about to lose my mind in this place I'm about to lose my mind in this place I'm about to lose my mind in this place I'm about to lose my mind up in this place (This motherfucking place yea)

I looked up a stared at the sun Everything around me turned grey Till I pulled down my shades My own worth I was gonna end it in a whimper Till I called the shot's And that's the way it will stay, yup The way it will stay need to define myself aye The way it will stay if I defy myself pray The way it will stay needed to find myself aye The way it will stay if I defy myself pray Like I'm in a personal limo the bus it doesn't stop for you Red lights I go through, school zones you lose On the up & up, don't look down, shit is scary from these heights But it gon be alright Long as my mind is structured right like the bridge that don't collapse My eye's are itchy rolling through this city from your lights I'm getting very nervous like I'm being watched or followed Tap my phone I'm tracked and own to the government Coming to terms with the fact that I may have a problem Solving it is complex when my mind is the cube No stress is best when it's crowded on your bus say that I don't need no people round me I just need myself I say the harder you fall the harder you bounce But now I'm late to your house and you're mad Cause I didn't end up bringing the facts that I had had the start, shit A father figure to my son is what I need to be It's never easy Cause I need my room to be cluttered My mind it can't be this bare I'm staring at a blank wall My feelings so the opposite Stagnate I had become So suit and tie with the room Place for everything but I feel cramped I don't belong, I don't belong Introverted in sun Mum and dad would say I wasted time with these raps all along Only did they understand when I had achieved Those times I needed to feel Extroverted in a cell I looked up a stared at the sun Everything around me turned grey Till I pulled down my shades My own worth I was gonna end it in a whimper Till I called the shot's And that's the way it will stay, yup The way it will stay need to define myself aye The way it will stay if I defy myself pray The way it will stay needed to find myself aye The way it will stay if I defy myself pray

Demons_HD 01:37
Yea yea yea yea yea Yea yea yea yea yea Uh Uh Yea yea yea yea yea Yeah Emotional intensity is hard enough as it is So me being paranoid intense as acid is While going through a trip Darlin I've had my dips so pardon my lisp And that scar across my wrist Anxiety was high in those moments of stress Close to my death, close to a heart attack from panic in my breath Ex had to come over give a shoulder to my head She couldn't recognize my face in that state Hardest truth I Was falling apart So pardon my heart for beating Lookin in dark Eye's in the garden of Eden Snake in the grass The mirror defines all my demons Apples to glass Masks never leaving I'm back on medication now not fucking with ya weed The only high sensation that I feel is when you talk to me But you're not really here just a voice A memory of what I once had Replayed evermore when in need I write the rhymes and live my days throughout the nights Prescription pills what I'm supplied my views balanced on life I may not ever end my stress might fall before I rise But I know I'll never really leave the cliff-edge illusion of sight

So when you catch me in my black and white stripy shirt Some track pants the hoodie since 15 you should pay some mind Cause at the pace I've been going to be great Sentimental values and I've never really cared about the fucking brands It's just a name shout out to Mac The quality's in the content not the tag, yup I wish he were here now but that's life ain't it Pain the bigger picture to the audience for them to fake it I tell ya Chill out not a single stress around laugh a bit Life's a bitch then ya die I guess I've got the world riding me, huh Yo, who's to say that times not infinite I'm infinitely better than my predecessors cause I said so My mind it don't control me actions are spelling beast mode Who's the person these clowned the artists for rapping slow And who made 13 music video's just for the promo, I'm playin But really doe my palms have slipped away from my face Amazed at what I can chase Amazed at what I can create Being humble but I'm proud of my plate People mistake the confidence for hate it's all love When they want the starving artist to go out with a bang I wanna be a solo artist whist I hang with the bands Can change my rout for money Go combat with a gang But I'm not hoping for that shot I wanna come back to see my fam I was an outcast and still am to some extent Remember school it wasn't horrible, nah Not many friends But if I did it was chicks Cold feet to the rent, coffee when I vent, copy me go attempt My minds wide open so capture me at a rest Batted my vest, my padded cells in a check who's next, aye It's as simple as you make it Grab the paper try to trace it Love from the heart you can't trade it I've made it to me, but maybe to me is something you can't see This product contains a latency to the craft I leave never basic I'm really digging now Basement In other words I'm giving you my all yeah my brains kind of racing It's the daily life for me but you know that already Aye, aye, yuh Steady as a motherfucker can be yea Steady as a motherfucker can be

about

This is the first project where I’ve had to come out of my mold, on my own terms, to tell a story.

It incapsulates my declining mental health, my past substance abuse, relationships, nirvana, my past trauma and many more thoughts of portrayed through the genre of Rap.

This is unapologetically me, my flaws, my highs my lows, my mind.
Just know that everything is not what it seems.
This is Life Stress Illusion, The Album.
18 Tracks. 17 Songs. 35 minutes.
I hope you can find solace listening to this as I did while creating it.
Thank you for your time and enjoy.
