2 Shades Of Grey: We Just Want To Be...

Fame - Fortune - Glory - Money - Power - Respect - Money - Cars - Clothes - Hoes

I suppose we all want the same thing


"They say the good die young, I hope I live Forever..." BareFeet & BrokenDreams (2SOG)

I remember riding around St. Louis in my Dodge Spirit (Bertha), bouncing around to new beats and songs me and T.I.T. made (Girl Problems, Killin Em, Like Diamonds, Fuck Buddy Freestyle etc. )I use to be shy then, not really thinking i was any good, but I knew one day it would work. Fast forward a Album,a Mixtape and EP and its yet to catch on. Sometimes I fear the wrong song will catch on, thrusting me in a different direction.

The Question is would I "Sell Out"?

How High reference, I need Money. I could never stop writing or recording, but the life of a starving artist is just that. I don't want to sacrifice my Creativity for record sells, but waisting a months crafting a conceptual CD only to be released for free isn't putting money in my pockets. I know "They have to be a Fan before a Supporter". Fame

Answer: All depends on the amount of zero's

"Money is our obsession, so we make sense (Cents) of the bullshit they suggesting" The Fence (2SOG)

We all dream, thats the only thing free in life. Vanity slaves is what we are referred to. I want as many women as my body can handle. I want as much money as the next person. I want the Sports cars, The gas guzzlers, The Battery powered Rides. Can you blame me. We learned from an early age that Money is everything weather it be from out parents, the schools, or The TV. Diamonds here, down payments there. I fell for it all, soaked that idea in. Money

"I just want to make it seem like I live as lavish as them niggas rapping on the screen" Future Fronting Flow (2SOG)

Fame is not my motivation. I have people I wish to help and family I wish to pay back for their love. thats why I write, for them and for you. It shames me to let them hear i haven't lived up to my potential. I would do anything to make them proud of me. I want my listener to not put me in a box, because there are a lot we have planned for the future. Writing the same things can only get you so far. Glory

"Looking Moms in the face, and I promise I'm going to make it..." The Goodbye (2SOG)

2 Shades Of Grey: For The Love Of...

What is this place I'm in?

"I knew she fell in love, because I tripped her..." W.o.W (2SOG)


I find myself writing the mass of my love songs when i'm single, as if they are an application to "The One". The love i have for females use to overpowered the respect i had for them. I've learned so much through my adventures,so many "What Ifs", so many names I cant remember and No excuse, no apology could erase some of the things Ive done. Can I move on, or must I pay that debt in full? My passion is music, its all Im good at, and Ive come in this juncture where my only happiness comes from these recordings. I CANT allow myself to be loved when it wont be reciprocated to its fullest. I'm miserable, because I know my chances of being a star, and I don't want to drag some innocent girl down with me

"So I say what Makes them happy, and I do what keeps me going..." Where Are We Going (2SOG)

Bring the Hoes in and let me have my fill. Men have urges and women have urges. The differences between the two is the mediums we use to fulfill those. Women have the pick of the litter. Dick is thrown at them since the day they grew breast and it will never stop. The word "NO" is at the top of their vocabulary. As a man we hear NO more often than we hear THANK YOU. Rejection is something we've come to fear because You women are ruthless, so when a man get the chance to have the upper hand we utilize it 10x. Men can be Heartless, but at least we're simple. Point being, I love Sex, I need Sex, and I get it when I can.

"I'm sure to get mine, you should focus on yours..." The Proposal (2SOG)

I'm curious what its going to be like when I do find H.E.R. I hope I'm ready to be everything she needs and more. At the pace I'm headed, I'm better off alone, but I once heard that a Good women will help a Bad boy grow or something like that. I don't care about her past, mine would overshadow her's. I don't care about her background, why limit my search to just one race. No matter the size of shape, all i want is to do is be able to show her love as much as I can.

But right now, I'm not ready...
