island man

Singer:kota the friend

fuck the world

i don't need friends

i can do this shit alone

same way i came in

it's the only way my cynicism intend to make sense

cause ain't nobody by you when you trying to make rent

when a dollar hard to find

when you trying to scrape cents

just to get a small meal when the living get real

yo

backstabbers in the shadows

used to be naive

now i got them on my maps bro

i dodge 'em like the toll roads and i don't even fully trust the app yet

fuck banks keep the real money in my mattress

cause i don't trust no one

and i don't need a cosign

trying to get they fingers in my gold mine

and i believe in myself even when the world don't

and i don't need to worry 'bout the weak links

standing on my o-line

i read the gaps closed and create my own holes

third string winning titles on his own

dog

i be on my island

'cause niggas always coming at your soul

praying that one day you gonna fold

dog

i be on my island

cause people finna stab you in the back

in your face steady putting on an act

so

i be on my island

cause ever body playing fucking games

so we all look at everybody strange

dog

i be on my island

cause i be sick and tired of the garbage

hop into my ship and i be off this

first we was only after g's like the letter h

then we was only after meals like we never ate

only thing after bills is the trill face

and the thrill only tastes better when it's with the grill

grace in your face like a hundred mill

hungry meals was the hundred year milk

how do you feel in the field when it's real

and them bills make you feel like you drowning in your own house

blowing clouds

i might go mouth on the mountain

counting all my blessings trying to tell it to my hot men

muhammad

mandela

malcolm

martin

and still can't fit all the merits in the margin

i be having thoughts of becoming a farmer

getting married or being a single father for my daughter

i bought her all the water on the planet

and put it on a song in case she ever gets stranded

i be on my island

cause niggas always coming at your soul

praying that one day you gonna fold

dog

i be on my island

cause people finna stab you in the back

in your face steady putting on an act

so

i be on my island

cause ever body playing fucking games

so we all look at everybody strange

dog

i be on my island

cause i be sick and tired of the garbage

hop into my ship and i be off this

these fools mad shameless

that's why best friends become strangers

always gotta watch for the danger

everybody suspect

all i see is snakes

so i keep my hair straight till i passing through the days

i be dolo

brim bank kicking in my dojo

free spirit living like i'm yoko

small town full of small minds moving slow-mo

stuck in the moment

still staring at a photo

it's all the same

i be on a plane with a knapsack

looking at the clouds moving mad fast

driving on the 99 going 85 in the saab

switching lanes on the california high

island man in full effect

my current being forced is no regrets

i make tunes sleep water bread

and live free of every complex

dropping out the contest

hoping you don't take me out of context

i be on my island

cause niggas always coming at your soul

praying that one day you gonna fold

dog

i be on my island

cause people finna stab you in the back

in your face steady putting on an act

so

i be on my island

cause ever body playing fucking games

so we all look at everybody strange

dog

i be on my island

cause i be sick and tired of the garbage

hop into my ship and i be off this

i be on my island

cause niggas always coming at your soul

praying that one day you gonna fold

dog

i be on my island

cause people finna stab you in the back

in your face steady putting on an act

so

i be on my island

cause ever body playing fucking games

so we all look at everybody strange

dog

i be on my island

cause i be sick and tired of the garbage

hop into my ship and i be off this

i be on my island

cause niggas always coming at your soul

praying that one day you gonna fold

dog

i be on my island

cause people finna stab you in the back

in your face steady putting on an act

so

i be on my island

cause ever body playing fucking games

so we all look at everybody strange

dog

i be on my island

cause i be sick and tired of the garbage

hop into my ship and i be off this
