AKS - Train of Thought lyrics

[Intro: AKS] Aight, uh, yo…turn me up in the headphones please Uh, one…two, yo, a little bit more Uh, yeah…look, they've been waiting on I for the longest time So the least that I can try is to tell ‘em what's on my mind! [Verse 1: AKS] Listen! …Another kid who found Hip-Hop and fell in love with it Live the consequences, monogamous or the opposite Office secret operative, Clark up in Metropolis Tryna make sense of my failures amongst all my accomplishments I'll be honest …only wanted some acknowledgement Amongst the brothers tryna make it big without the nourishment Up until the last days of the apocalypse If opportunity knocks…think you'll find I'm an occupant Behind bars…me and my accomplices Tryna make a profit spraying ink like an octopus You know the bloggers don't recognize the reconnaissance I guess they're less encouraged ‘cause knowledge is the prerogative So…should I follow the economics and politics? Try to step beyond the upbringing they called impoverished? Yo…the underdog until predominant Tunnel vision on…the opposition is anonymous In tryna overcome the obstacles in front of us I cut off confidants who tried take a knock at my confidence I need to prove it to myself…the hypothesis So they can see I'm far gone…no binoculars Yea…I'm among the ghetto philosophers On a platform where together we're more than conquerors What? …That's why I give you my logic I'm never gonna adopt the repurcussions of stopping this Train of thought brudda! [Hook] Train of thought brudda! My train of thought fam! They've been waiting on I for the longest time So the least that I can try is to to tell ‘em what's on my mind! [Bridge] ‘Cause I've been thinking lately When everything's all said and done Look how far I've come! …But there's still a long way to go! [Verse 2: AKS] Irrespective of your perspective You was never a threat to either me or my collective No…The blessed kid from a little town of Deptford Bredahs expected to move bricks like this was Tetris Yea…Man I don't think they get the message Disconnect from what the definition of success is The pedestrian flow that went progressive By converting my train of thought into kinetics More or less, it's part of my genetic code I pray the ever present still illuminates my stepping-stones People question me…how can recognition grow Unless I'm playing devil's advocate for record sales? Fam…Can I endeavor where my predecessors failed? Move you on every track brother? Network rail? Fam…You only give the effort when it's necessary Me I treat each second like its legendary, evidently! That's why I scribble on pages ‘til my pen is empty Tryna evade a quarter century in the penitentiary Only elegant beats can give me peace Where the peeps wanna squeeze and release over the peas This scene's got me tired of the irrelevant speech That means I lost too much sleep chasing my dreams But f** it I'm ill that's the diagnosis You'll notice how I keep it moving like a locomotive! [Hook x 2] Train of thought brudda! My train of thought fam! They've been waiting on I for the longest time So the least that I can try is to to tell ‘em what's on my mind! [Bridge] ‘Cause I've been thinking lately When everything's all said and done Look how far I've come! …But there's still a long way to go! x 7 There's still a long way to go, to go There's still a long way to go!
