lyrics
Momma said there was something special about me
The way the jewels just oozed outta my mouthpiece
Wise beyond my years, so young without fear
And so honest that she could never doubt me
I was innocent as doves, a gentleman above
All else, all I needed was a little bit of love
So friendly with a smile that could light up a room
Put me in front of the games and yo I was consumed
From Atari I was on it then to Mario and sonic
It was always so iconic, any article I got it
Sunday School, I remember crying
When I heard Jesus died for me
So I came back with a word
For the homies on the block that were stuck in the stash spot
I was on the Hot Wheels and matchbox
Went from rough play to drugs and gunplay
They told me told me go away
You gon' be something one day
Every place I try to go
Around the block, around the globe
They say “there’s just something about you”
(I leave 'em awestruck from the stardust)
Every place I try to go
Around the block, around the globe
They say “there’s just something about you”
(I leave 'em awestruck from the stardust)
Can’t quantify it or buy it
Used to try to deny it but now they can’t hide it
Sometimes I wish I could keep it private
But it’s my job to share what I was provided
Every time that I open up my eyelids
I’m just wishing that I was one of the fly kids
Settled as a hybrid, mornings I would ride with
Cats who played the dozens 'til I was almost crying
Later I would side with kids who they teased
saved them and they’d flip and do the same thing to me
Grown up, no regrets on my choices
speaking for the voiceless, some say I’m anointed
But I say it’s just not true, like my rep I grew
They wanna rap on game beats Just like you
Maybe, but man it ain’t a mystery
I’m just doing what I wish somebody did for me
yeah
Every place I try to go
Around the block, around the globe
They say “there’s just something about you”
(I leave 'em awestruck from the stardust)
Every place I try to go
Around the block, around the globe
They say “there’s just something about you”
(I leave 'em awestruck from the stardust)
I used to cry cuz I was different
They called me goofy, momma called me gifted
Used to have it twisted, now it’s so vivid
Got the game tight like a size 6 fitted
Murder was the case, but somehow we acquitted
Who could've predicted
Flourished in a field that I never knew existed
Now everybody with it
Love, that’s the ticket
Dig it
The way the jewels just oozed outta my mouthpiece
Wise beyond my years, so young without fear
And so honest that she could never doubt me
I was innocent as doves, a gentleman above
All else, all I needed was a little bit of love
So friendly with a smile that could light up a room
Put me in front of the games and yo I was consumed

about
Sonic Skillz Tampa
Many people tend to start their biographies by talking about who they are. I think I’d rather talk about who I’m not: I’m not a singer, I’m not a rapper, and I don’t like being referred to as a producer (at least not in the context that the hip-hop community uses it). I’m not the next [insert name here], and I am NOT a beatmaker. ... more

Hands-down, one of my favorite arrangement albums. The Ragnarok soundtrack is incredible, and my friends Joshua Morse and Anthony Lofton most certainly did it justice.

My friend Mega Ran released one of my favorite albums of 2015 with "RNDM." With this album, he's been able to blend nerdcore elements and more accessible hiphop better than any emcee I've heard yet.
