They know I get, they know I get, they know I get, they know I get down I've got no choice but to make it I threw my life away Music is a part of me I do it every night and day I crack a smile at the ladies when I pass by When they're at my shows I tell em to keep their hands high Moving up is a struggling process At my shows, bring a fan cause I'm coming with hotness They love it when I rock I sets, I'm bound to make the crowd move Forbes with the quickness, I said it cause it sounds cool We all have issues we need to let go You know I'm down witchu if I'm witchu from the get go I'm vicious with the pencil, the paper and the mic Alls well I just need a couple haters in my life Y'all don't know how I get down So listen to my sound and take off my crown uh Cause the kings here, all you do is drink beer While I rap, yeah you're seeing double but I think clear Come on They know I get, they know I get, they know I get, they know I get down I'm focused on achieving goals, not glorifying all the weed I blow People are you with me? it's just something that I need to know I keep the tightest rhythm, trying to make the right decisions I'm so cool, get a vision on this life I'm livin My mind’s blank so I smash through the writer’s block Roll your windows down because everything I write is hot I like to rock with the people standing in front of me Performing for me is like grabbing money from money trees I got a team that you probably wish you could work with Cause next year we'll tour around the country like a circus Ahhh, I got my city bumping Forbes 500 And I love it, it's pumping up my budget I promise that I'm not a force to be reckoned with And lately I've been known to turn heads like an exorcist I knew I needed a way that I could invest my chips And when I die well may I rest in bliss They know I get, they know I get, they know I get, they know I get down

We all want the lifestyle with finer things The girls want the pearls and the diamond rings But me I want the stage on a world tour So if you want it go and get it cause the world's yours Come and hang with the crew, the nights just beginning I stay connected with my people like a subdivision I love the outdoors especially in late nights I wouldn't miss what's in front of me like brake lights You see the moon up in space, that's astrology I'm shooting for the stars all you gotta do is follow me People hating cause we get paid for shows Come on, we been blessed we spit flames like pros I'm on the back deck, writing to get a fat cheque Knowing that it's many miles away like the Aztecs Let it be known, I rap and devour The passion is ours, I been at it for hours I treat my latest cd as a trophy You know me, I got em hooked like dope fiends on codeine We're rap stars, kush smoking in my backyard I'm building my image and I don't gotta try to act hard We all want the lifestyle with finer things The girls want the pearls and the diamond rings But me I want the stage on a world tour So if you want it go and get it cause the world's yours I'm a blessing in disguise they don't know it yet Living everyday like there's no tomorrow with no regrets I see a lot of people hating on The Faculty But if that means winning I want everybody mad at me Check the status bro, yeah it’s my status quo I left some people in the past because they had to go Hard work is a language I speak fluent But people give up cause it's harder to keep moving I'm underrated cause most of you never heard of me Get me recording I'll turn the track into a murder scene I'll get to the straight point, I won't sugar coat it The truth hurts but I always do it in the moment It isn't bothering me, I'm not starting a beef So let's smoke one and call it a week Everyday changes, I'm feeling anxious I just might wake up one and be famous We all want the lifestyle with finer things The girls want the pearls and the diamond rings But me I want the stage on a world tour So if you want it go and get it cause the world's yours

Listen up, I love life in the fall I need some Timbs and hoodies so I'm headed right to the mall With some friends, it's hard to think that we ain't brothers But I just love autumn because the leaves change colours Uh, I feel a gust of wind as I watch the leaves blow It's better than the summer cause you can't catch a heat stroke Chilling with my people, the sun sets early It started in September, so how must I remember? Spring forward or fall back, I throw on my ball cap Embracing these lyrics I call it raw rap This time of year the white girls love Starbucks But once they get taste of me they get star struck It's pretty chilly weather for the most part So my rhymes sound like Mozart with a cold heart You recognize me like I been here before I think it's deja vu, so let me give you some more Connor Morand: I see the seasons change, where I'm from you know that nothing ever stays the same And everything falls, falls, falls, everything it falls, falls, falls So many memories of walks on the town With beautiful red leaves as they fall to the ground The imagery’s on point, the scenery is a treat My wonderful weather words flow easily to a beat Come on, let's have fun, this couch let's hop off it Hanging with my homies bout to grab a hot chocolate It's cold out, warm yourself for this weather Cause it'll take a few more months to get better (Got my jeans on) blue Levis on my waist Fresh kicks and a smile on my face (with a clean white tee on) cause my styles cooler than the X Games Headed to my barber for a fresh fade Gotta stay clean cut, working with my feet up Writing these songs, so Phatkat turn the beat up It's wild how it turns out every time we meet up I love the autumn season, outside's where you'll see us, let's go Connor Morand: I see the seasons change, where I'm from you know that nothing ever stays the same And everything falls, falls, falls, everything it falls, falls, falls

I guess I'll start by saying I been getting frustrated On social networks to keep my people updated A lot of people want to chit chat and that's fine But they can't understand that I might not always have time Y'all be catching feelings over it all I live a busy life I can't even go to the mall I gotta make time for work and personal stuff Plus my lady's feeling lonely, I'm urgent to bust I just wanna get a minute to write These wannabes smoke dope while I'm living my life I got priorities son The difference in us is you try to be a rapper but I'm born to be one I'm playing to win, you play it cause you think that it's cool But if you ever step on my toes I'll take you to school Get off of my back, I'm trying to make a profit from rap And if you want a feature pay me when I hop on your track so Let me get away Whenever the times right Let me get away I feel trapped all I wanna do is Get away I got a passion for rappin Let me get away I'm blowing off steam, I'm stressed I know some people that won't like this song But this is my opinion I could share it all night long You think it matters if you never buy my cd Your chick probably will, cause she digs me, believe me All I ever wanna do is step back a bit But when I don't respond y'all get mad and have a fit Where's the peace I got morals and codes Some days I wanna take off but I got nowheres to go, uh People hit me up for money homie why bother If I was famous you'd be lucky seeing 5 dollars I'd be off on an island with no cell Nice 5 star suite the finest of hotels You talk about me when I leave the room I stay humble to the bone it's not something that I need to prove You either with me or against me Cause whenever I blow I know I'll have this game in a frenzy Let me get away Whenever the times right Let me get away I feel trapped all I wanna do is Get away I got a passion for rappin But let me get away I'm blowing off steam I'm stressed

It's time for y'all to take notes, cause Jay is not the scapegoat That you can put the blame on, who is else is the same boat? I'm always putting work in, props to Juliano You know I shut these shows down like Sopranos I thought the Forbes 500 was an ear catcher Buzz so good it'd make you listen like peer pressure But it never got the recognition it deserves Driving a brand new car and then you hit the curb Everything happens for a reason right? That's why god hasn't given me an easy life I guess I have a bigger purpose, I know my time is comin A lot of people tell me I'm the dopest guy in Moncton Well, where's the fans, where's the money, where's the fame at? For 4 years straight I've been rocking the same hat I'm a hip hop fiend, always staying high as hell Will I make it in this music game? only time will tell I question my future and everywhere I'm headed I try to let it go and just forget it Only time will tell Will I have an impact that stays intact? Or maybe I should quit rap, I'm thinking Only time will tell So the clock strikes 10 and the show starts So lyrically gifted you would think I was inspired by Mozart I got some loyal fans, all they plan to do is help Stick beside me while I manage not to lose myself I just want one shot at this, repping my metropolis Fairy tales do not exist so working hard is common sense Where do I see myself in 10 years? Either making a difference or on my way to heaven cause the ends near People tend to change when see they see you doing better Money and fame will make em wanna be with you forever I always wondered if this music is my destiny The key to my success, I could use it like a recipe Never doubt the kid, I could take this so far People respect me cause I'm the realest and I go hard Only time will tell, if I'll make it out of here Standing all alone in a puddle of a thousand tears I question my future and everywhere I'm headed I try to let it go and just forget it Only time will tell Will I have an impact that stays intact? Or maybe I should quit rap, I'm thinking Only time will tell
