Limitless - Torae

I used to think Sky’s where the limit is

On the grind for the dividends

But what I found since I been in this

Is that you gotta live limitless x 3

Now all I hear in my mentions is…

Tor you my favorite MC realest rapper in years

For the Record track crazy how you got with Premier

When you headed out on the road you passing through here

All I do is play your music so these bastards ah hear

I don’t fuck with Jay Z I don’t listen to Drake

Only real hip hop all the others is fake

I be saying to myself word that’s what you think

Man them niggas out there getting that cake I’m tryna get at a plate

You think I got in this shit not to be comfy

Not to get houses & cars not to be funny

But just because a nigga could rhyme he should bummy

You purist niggas is wild show me the money

Or at least show me you love me when I put it in stores

You don’t sell in certain regions they ain’t booking the tour

Niggas think you skipping cities you ain’t wanna perform

Man that money still green I’m tryna get at it all

I don’t never put a limit on the cities I play

Used to pump as much Ace as NWA

Good Music, good music BK to the Bay

That’s why I had the thizz face when I listened to Mac Dre

Then I witnessed when rap changed it was like a divide

Underground or mainstream had to pick you a side

Now it’s either Bad Boy or you listen to Tribe

These is two separate worlds they no longer collide

And then Tip dropped Vibrant niggas was like Ummmm

This kinda distant from Bonita Applebum

When the music feel different then the fans go numb

Sam Cooke tried to tell you that the change gone come

And the change gone come I’m tryna get near the dollars tho

Not crossing over tryna get where I gotta go

Like niggas wanna see you stuck on the bottom tho

And when you climb they geronimo

They ain’t really tryna understand its a need to expand

When you reach a larger audience you broaden the brand

When you filling up arenas it’s a crowd in the stands

This is more than just a hobby you provide for your fam… It's a problem

They say we lost Kanye & Common

You rather have em out starving

Then evolving

You rather have em enslaved than being sovereign

That type of shit I ain’t involved in

Motherfuckers hit you like such & such just got a deal

On a major record label for a couple of mill

Knowing that you way nicer how that’s making you feel

Honestly I’m like is you for real

Magine this if you will

You at a job & you working it hard

Putting crazy time in tryna get the reward

Then a nigga get hired barely punching his card

For a month and he managing y’all

No advantage at all

I answered the call, underrated a understatement

So understand that underground mean they under paying

So over stand I got bills & some youngster waiting and I ain’t tryna see em

hunger paining

Just wanna live with no limits in the music that all

I’m a always get busy I’m a always go off

Over boom bap, synth or electric guitar

Please believe I’ll be giving you Tor

Lemme live it is all from y’all that I ask

Been taken to task

I don’t wanna stay stagnant where I’m already at

Living life more abundant is my calling in fact

That you might let me live it perhaps and I’m a leave it at that

Is all from y’all that I ask

Been taken to task

I don’t wanna stay stagnant where I’m already at

Living life more abundant is my calling in fact

That you might let me live it perhaps and I’m a leave it at that cuz

I used to think Sky’s where the limit is

On the grind for the dividends

But what I found since I been in this

Is that you gotta live limitless x 3

Now all I hear in my mentions is…
