Knowing you five years, going on six Feelings that we've had always dismissed Some just tap into it for the hell of it But we found a way to resist 'Cause it could get personal and flip And I ain't tryna deal with all that shit So we just keep it down on the low And keep it at a friendship level that's it Now, I'm suppressing what's on my mind You should bring talks to me one more time And maybe, we'll get caught up in the moment, and Came out the closet, you and I Live and learn, that's what it's about But in the back of the mind there's always some doubt But we're alone in here and the music's blaring Are you hearing what I'm saying? I don't really want to compromise our Our friendship, but I got a thing for you, yeah And I don't really want to cross the line, but I'm kinda really hoping that we do Lowkey We be keeping it low, but to keep it real Lowkey I've been thinking about showing you how I feel Lowkey Baby, don't resist it's alright to be Lowkey If the thought is there, I really think we should roll with it Lowkey We be keeping it low, but to keep it real Lowkey I've been thinking about showing you how I feel Lowkey Baby, don't resist it's alright to be Lowkey If the thought is there, I really think we should roll with it Playing off on this creeping Got me secretly wanting more of you And I know you feel it too So, tell me what's with all this hiding Forget what they say we vibing Outta the darkness to light and It's been a long time coming Only one thing stopping me 'Cause you know I don't wanna believe the wrongs I don't really want to compromise our (compromise) Our friendship, but I got a thing for you, yeah And I don't really want to cross the line, but, I I'm kinda really hoping that we do Lowkey We be keeping it low, but to keep it real Lowkey I've been thinking about showing you how I feel Lowkey Baby, don't resist it's alright to be Lowkey If the thought is there, I really think we should roll with it Lowkey We be keeping it low, but to keep it real Lowkey I've been thinking about showing you how I feel Lowkey Baby, don't resist it's alright to be Lowkey If the thought is there, I really think we should roll with it I really think we should roll with it I really think we should roll with it I really think we should roll with it I really think we should roll with it Lowkey, lowkey Keep it low for me, baby

What do you think I'm always drunk? And always so turned up? Expectations of me lay so skin deep As if I can take anything But who's here to protect me? Looking like the sun is going down Think about the day I feel the pressure coming around Better shut my mouth If I say my feelings, then they'll say that I'm too loud Blend in to the crowd Once they'll see my color then they'll think that I'm too proud and now They'll think I'm super tough and made of silver stuff All while I'm falling apart In the nighttime, I lose it for real (for real) Watching as my cup overfills Losing all my sense of what I feel Yes, I guess, I'm broken steel Maybe I'm just that soft 'Cause you're playing too rough I am delicate with strings that I created For a world that's always taking pieces of who I am Without anything worth trading Looking like the sun is going down Think about the day I feel the pressure coming around Better shut my mouth If I say my feelings, then they'll say that I'm too loud Blend in to the crowd Once they'll see my color then they'll think that I'm too proud and now They'll think I'm super tough and made of silver stuff All while I'm falling apart In the nighttime, I lose it for real Watching as my cup overfills Losing all my sense of what I feel Yes, I guess, I'm broken steel I hold the weight of the world on my hips I must be strong, can't simp I fed the culture off the tit Created a wave, can't catch my drift Hide my strenght Talk my shit, they buy my lips Cry my pain, they mosh to it (I hate y'all) You wanna defund, I wanna defend Not the same can't pretend Mind of Orisha, skin of a heathen I don't walk in rooms where I'm not greeted, yeah Try me's treason, yeah, yeah Smiles deceiving, yeah, yeah Built this table where I'm seated If they can manifest destiny, why can't you? Need a minute to catch your breath, huh, I need two Can no longer do the work that they won't do My race is not my cape Ho, give me space I cry too Broken steel Broken steel

Watch them flee Watch them flee Watch them flee Hip-hop hits And you do it like this It's going down It's going down It's going down It's going down It's going down It's going down It's going down It's going down The rhythm projects round the next sound Reflects the complex hybrid dialect now Detect the mesh of many elements compressed down The melting pot of a super futuresque style The combination of a vocal caress With lungs that gasp for breath from emotional stress With special effects and a distorted collage Carefully lodged between beats of rhythmic barrage It's going down The logical progression on a the timeline The separation narrowed down to a fine line To blur the edges so they blend together properly Take you on an audible odyssey, now It's going down Put it out for the world to see LP and X-Men to the 10th degree It's going down, nobody in the world is safe When we melt down the wax in your record grave It's going down Put it out for the world to see LP and X-Men to the 10th degree It's going down, nobody in the world is safe When we melt down the wax in your record grave It's going down Put it up It said it goes like this And you do it like this It's going down, once again it is Composed sentences all together venomous The four elements of natural force Projected daily through the sound of the source Everybody on board as we blend The sword with the pen The mightiest of weapons Swinging right from the chin The elevate of mental states Long gone with the wind To defend men for shoddy imitation pretends It's going down Style assimilation readily Trekking through the weaponry of the pure pedigree Cleverly seeing through whatever is ahead of me Whatever the weather be, we invent the steadily It's going down to sub-terrestrial high I rhyme regiment thats calling the shots Execution of collaborative plots Ready to bring the separation of style to a stop It's going down A logical progression on a the timeline The separation narrowed down to a fine line To blur the edges so they blend together properly Take you on an audible odyssey, now It's going down Put it out for the world to see LP and X-Men to the 10th degree It's going down, nobody in the world is safe When we melt down the wax in your record grave It's going down Put it out for the world to see LP and X-Men to the 10th degree It's going down, nobody in the world is safe When we melt down the wax in your record grave X-Men bout to blast of world wide X-Men bout to blast of world wide And you do it like this X- Men bout to blast of world wide It's going down Put it out for the world to see LP and X-Men to the 10th degree It's going down, nobody in the world is safe When we melt down the wax in your record grave It's going down Put it out for the world to see LP and X-Men to the 10th degree It's going down, nobody in the world is safe When we melt down the wax in your record grave It's going down Put it up It said it goes like this It's going down And you do it like this It's going down Put it up It said it goes like this It's going down And you do it like this Like this Like this Like this
