As I float/
Where’d you go?/
Give me control/
I know these days can beautify when you’re here/
Boughta boughta peel it off/
Baby goose keep it cool/
You know where to find me/
Pelligrino in the pool/
Forget about our friends/
They can get it too/
Forget your old mans/
This Nick is brand new/
I think I need ya/
I think I’m doing whatever there is to please ya/
Did I mention your intentions were clear from the moment we met?/
Hot outside/
Your hair drips from my fingers/
Lavender pheromones/
Only tongue and touch linger/
Dirty Mind momma/
Crank up the Prince/
And I’ma give you track threee/
You gon give me track six/
I’m either/
blasting spros or I’m blasting goals/
Cept for when I’m Rhyming then I’m blasting flows/
Cept for when I’m writing then I’m mining gold/
In my own lane you can go where you’re told/
See I’m American mentally/
With Norwegian tendencies/
Parisian sensibilities so stay out the vicinity of/
My old flows or spectacular vernacular/
Intergallactic traveller/
Nobody in the passenger/
Pass on a 5th of whiskey/
With Hennessy you can miss me/
Tell Karma to come and get me/
Tell Johnny he can forget me/
Tell Jimmy kiss my machete/
Or any of my enemies/
Find a tree/
Find a stool/
Find a rope and jump off for me/
Nothing else you could offer me/
Living I do it awesomely/
Often seen/
Flawlessy/
Stunting on top of water skis/
BALANCE
I got/
Vagrants in the front/
A couple addicts in the back/
Creepers on the side/
They don’t know how to act/
They don’t know that I live here/
They don’t know any facts/
Keep put on the bench there/
Or the shotty gets racked/
Back/
-flippin off the five oh with it/
They’re in my backyard/
I don’t act tough/
But they act hard/
Get em point blank with a crowbar/
In the broad day/
Or the dead night/
Keep a Ka-Bar/
on the bedside/

A confident first funky step for a new band with a lot of members and even more talent. I can't seem to get these hooks out of my head. One of my favorite releases this year, short & sweet. Yung Pacemaker
