Down in Treme… Verse One There was a time when I operated from a state of mind That always had me broke But I'd always keep enough for a bit of dat lah roll a blunt and then I'd smoke From a foggy head space had to face life in combat on an uphill slope In a cloud of smoke at my imaginary desk, post-its and mental notes Then I'd throw it all to the wind Like the opening credits, Murder She Wrote Steady on the case at a turtle pace But nearly missed the boat Thought each exhale Pushed the sail That kept my ship afloat In actuality, vision ain't what it used to be Coast Guard brought me back sonically admonished me Noticed my sail's poor quality And how it stifled me Respond defensively cuz he could see something in me That I couldn't see (most likely naivety) Had way too many "frenemies" Outwardly I was their MVP But secretly they harbored jealousy And quite truthfully, my ship was at capacity So overboard they went like Natalie Minus the mystery Left them out to sea with no dinghy or jet ski Pissed, hollering at me exposing their insanity Used to look me in my eyes and call me "family" but you bitched out cowardly and left me space for clarity Put out my blee, continued on my path of verity Now all that time spent Is merely HISTORY Hook Was always climbing and climbing but steady struggling (struggling) Couldn't see the silver outlining when I was struggling (struggling) Brushed off the dirt and found diamonds while I was struggling (struggling) And now prosperity's blinding and I'm not struggling (struggling) Verse Two He called me up Rang my phone Told me that, something was going on Worse case scenario The wind would blow In from NorthEast, we in a fish bowl Beneath the level of the sea Couldn't see... Water over 20ft Boats in the street Though he was telling me We NEVER spoke of anarchy Or predict, being left behind in a forgotten city I told him "No" Take my son, I will not go If I live to see the water rise I'll hit the second flo with all my perishables And all my hope Ride it out guerilla style he told me "NOPE" point blank "Put some gas up in your tank, and make sure you're paper's straight at your bank" Thanked him at the shelter In Lafayette When all that would come through was a text Never forget all the heat and the sweat as we headed west continuous drive with little rest would never think we'd reach LA and be blessed In the strangest ways gifts manifest Evacuated... and God brought us Yusef! Hook Was always climbing and climbing but steady struggling (struggling) Couldn't see the silver outlining when I was struggling (struggling) Brushed off the dirt and found diamonds while I was struggling (struggling) And now prosperity's blinding and I'm not struggling (struggling)
