Line me up

Just getting started yeah

Yeah, MDB, LookThe darkest of matters they do reside in my mind

The darkest of matters they do reside in my mind

You see the way I decline

And here′s a thing that I find

Darkest of matters they do reside in my mind

Reality sucks so imma keep it a buck

My life is a mess but man I keep waking up

Speaking to Rem it's got me deep in distress

Rich in the mind but I ain′t meaning to flex

It's like

Music, money, college, knowledge

Lawyers, doctors, office, bosses

Losers, losses, rulers, tossers

Every single person who told me

I was nothing like

Think about the times

I was roaming the streets

20 man deep I wasn't catching no sleep

I had to make a change I wasn′t focused on me

I saw myself in music now I′m floating on beats

Like remember

Them sunny days in November

The weather

So many ways I could render events

But then she comes around

And says we're better as friends

So I move her to the side and now I′m focused again

My time is coming soon

You're like who wrote this again

The music name is Mark and I get noticed for them

The haters wanna talk and I ain′t focused on them

I'm gonna light the spark when I go

Further in the dark

Depression takes the wheel

Dealing with a problem

Music is the real

Pain pain killer

The city doesn′t feel the struggle

Of when you're tryna get a living for a deal

Chatting to my dargs in the clinic for a pill

You're asking why I rap, I do it for the thrill

The moment when you understand

That you could do better than drill

You have to put the pen to paper let it fill

With

Thoughts, dreams, things you haven′t seen

Problems, options, coming back to me

I try, I try

To think in the way that gets me strolling

But here′s the only thing I see

The darkest of matters they do reside in my mind

The darkest of matters they do reside in my mind

You see the way I decline

And here's a thing that you′ll find

Darkest of matters they do reside in my mind

They do reside in my mind

The darkest

You don't know about me do you

Get to know MDB, trust me

Storytime and that

Cool

Let me take you on a

Little trip around my life, yeah

Ight

Cool

Fresh outta school cuz I was a high school grad

Dealing with realities of losing my dad

Insanity struck, I seen the Klu Klux Klan

Burning charcoal, you niggas stayed back to look

I ran

Mortality′s painful and I need to believe it

To justify leaving

I think I'm tired of breathing

In fact, I′m on fire, cause I was inspired by

Kendrick Lamar

To write a piece about the life I live I label it art

Strobe lights flicker

Cold nights get witcha

Life goes quick

We die quicker

And you wonder why I stay away from trouble

What if your first fight

Saw you bleeding under the rubble

Welcome to the new reality

That I'm chasing where

The pressure and the hate

They mount like Mason

When it comes to rapping

I'm athletic like I′m Bilbao

The way that I be rhyming

Is madness, but I′m chilled out

Ah, time go to back to my ends now

Walking all alone

Cause I don't even know my friends now

And trust me

I seen the situation change

And it rushed me

See the way these man complain

It disgusts me

So if you wanna see a real oppression

Have a look in Ukraine

Different people with the same old lessons

POCs can′t get on a train

It's madness

Imagine being told to die cah

The blackness in your skin is more

In the middle of a global war

Who are you

I′m the quality in the queue with

Plans to execute

So I'm just playing it safe

But what am I supposed to do

When the pressure is coming through

And you′re telling me that I'm great

You know I'm a victim too

Just a victim, not my decision

I′m living in major pain

Temper telling me wait and he′s telling me

I got talent I buy the vision

Relocate to the studio base

And my name is written in paint

And my record's ready to play

You know the best of my best

Passing the test and so

You know the guest in my chest

Put him to rest, dark matter

Dark

You matter

You
