lyrics

Intro

It’s a special time
I got a special feeling
Yeah
And all I gotta say is
I think Kennzo got his groove back
Yeah, I think Kennzo got his groove back
Yeah, yuh, huh, yeah, listen, yo, uh
I said I…

Verse 1

I’d like to introduce you to my new ascension,
I got through it before all I had to do was listen,
To every sound of life, the melody was intoxicating
Made harmonies to get some harmony
My life is more amazing with the thought of me
Sounds a little vain, but nobody loves me like I love me
Walked away from it a new man like I changed IDs
So many clones like a shady song but they ain’t quite me, haha

Pre-chorus

If it was up to me I’d be the only thing in my dreams, it’s true
Yeah, yuh, yuh, uh, yeah, yeah, yo, uh
Now that I’m with me baby, I got them
Got em singing the old town blues
Yeah
So what I do? I…

Chorus

I got down with my bad ass self
I got down with my bad ass self (X4)


Verse 2

Everybody got their own plans,
Yeah, I waited patient like a doc’s lab,
Yeah, I graduated from my own past,
Every test I was given I passed,
I carved my own path,
Now I’m in my own class,
I committed to the mission,
Tunnel vision, take a listen every instrument
With my own hands,
Instrumented my vision, it’s my decision
Lack of Afro, light pigment

Pre-chorus

If it was up to me I’d be the only thing in my dreams, it’s true
Got my own two legs to stand on,
Yeah I got my own back
And now that I’m with me baby, I got em,
Got em singing the old town blues
(So what I do? I…)

Chorus

Verse 3

What you call a man with nothing to lose?
Nothing to prove, nothing to stand on
But the toes in his shoes,
Nothing to hold on to but the truth and his views,
Nothing to stand by but the booth and the fuse,
The truth is the fuel to light the venom that he spews,
Gospel verse now like I’m stuck in the pews,
It’s like God just jumped down and chose me as a muse, and said Man, what you trynna do?


Chorus
