I've tried

to get what I want, and I have

navigate. You will always see me patrolling with

my chest rig hanging, and the streets will

vibrate. Cutting rhymes and a joint

to burn, a red Marlboro just

the chest, and let the

humility show. Doing well with

the squad, we are here and we're not

leaving. Up with Sonora!

happy
