lyrics

Swane tell me how that girl play
For keeps, under the sheets
she has her ways

A good boy down, cemented
baby's on the way
So these days he tries to
sit and pray
hoping something realla
arrests the day

Talented island boy, track star
smile on his face, couldn't resist her
looking for fame and a proper wage
could of missed it

It's hard to forge the means
looking out there over cliffs
need another path to pay

The odds could be stacked against you
in an unfriendly way
tryna fly a kite
with no wind, all rain

criminal acts aren't on the radar
but I'd believe it, she's conceiving
can't live life on
tips and cool breezes

I thought I'd seen it all
I couldn't find my plate
when the sun shined in
I was playing lonely games

so before you misread fortune
Remember what he say:
"No phone, broke, stressed--she hatin"
It could end up that way


It could end up that way
That way
that way
It could end up that way
that way
that way
It could end up that way
That way
that way


This is the invitation
forge blueprints to stay sane
saw his face planted in sand
it's time to think again

before you show it, know
merchandise requires pay
don't sell yourself short
thieves are getting away

Do we really understand
or are we creating our own pain
on a party bus to nowhere
dreams are cast aways

knuckleheads recently told me
to give my soul away
I wasn't cashing in
let the majority wane

shorty knows when it's time to go
I'm sayin
potential coming back now
never sure why I waited

Saw those eyes tuggin inner
unraveled a whole chain
woke up feeling it was winter
charriots mishapen-astray

A hostile recollection
of a future in my way
humbled down to this child
and realized we were the same

Tryna learn the ropes
glide the peaks and valleys
before predicaments become tomorrow
respect the situation today

Hech Rhymes is a jazzy, lyrical MC from Cambridge, Massachusetts who displays charm and flex. Her storytelling prowess is refreshing and often verbose, if sometimes cryptically delivered. Hailing most of her influences from the mid-90’s when boom bap and competent flows were a mainstay, hers is a throwback sound with a head nod to the new school. ... more
