New to the Trade by Keydus Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2020

(Intro)
Yeah, New to the Trade
Nigga, you knew to this shit
Yeah

[Verse 1: Keydus]
I see a reflection of my dot when I cross lines like division
I flip everything given but lately haven’t been driven
In fear of collision
But still getting rapping niggas tapped out, like prohibition
I live life guided by intuition
With no room for omission
I hope you know the after life ain’t got no acquisitional cost
The womb our first home yet first smashes got niggas lost
Every man I’ve ever met had boss aspirations
But they vision blurred by doubters’ validations
Including yours truly
Paths gloomy so I stay lit like Louis
I’m finna flip this loonie
To make my life your IG caption, a true movie
[Chorus: Keydus]
New to the trade, wise beyond the age of 20
New to the trade, transitions made it to the city
New to the trade, one day I’m finna meet diddy
New to the trade, hammy downs to Gucci n Fenny (aye)


[Verse 2: Keydus]

Yeah, yeah
Always been a profit-hungry individual
Been tryna get overweight since an age so pivotal
A 6-year-old boy, mula fascinations running wild
During majors shifts to digital (digital)
Fast forward, watching green screens became part of the daily ritual (uh)
Now it’s all about these negations
I’m wearin’ in patience, you suited niggas, I’m suiting their needs so
Imma need a few more commas to add to these numerals (numerals)
I ain’t ever been to no funeral but I’ve experienced death
As a youngin’ always knew one day I’d have my last breath
Mamz tried her best to hide this inevitable
So now I vent in hopes to reinvent my life like we do on virtual
He made some breed before so he’s ineligible
That’s reality (huh)
You think these corporations give a fuck about your family
Can’t be new to the trade if you can’t make it to the league due to some bullshit bureaucracy
I’ve been an anomaly, nothing standard bout my goals
Need to find me the shoe to my soul
The Melissa to my Cole
The rock to my roll
Damn, damn you see
New trades may cause new pain
But no change will cause no gain
Like niggas who propane doses of cocaine
Nothing left in your brain, these words came
From seeing my people dying from afar
Who could of overcame?
Like I would if I fucked a movie star
Hey, Hey

[Chorus: Keydus]
New to the trade, wise beyond the age of twenty
New to the trade, transitions made it to the city
New to the trade, one day I’m finna meet diddy
New to the trade, hammy downs to Gucci n Fenny (aye)
