Cam Cunningham - Canvas
I brush up skills with words I choose to paint
Never been a one who chose to choose restraint
My name’s something you can’t use to taint
Words don’t bruise me, especially if news be fake
To be frank, it’s tough to stay inside
inspiration happens all of the time
Used my senses to make sense of mine
But lately what I’m hearing ain’t kind (Uh)
People been shocked how I’m living
I been on a ride, I invited y’all to get in (Ah, ah, ah)
But all you do is talk, you don’t listen
You falling for the trap cuz you thinking that I’m trippin
Word came back, started plotting on a mission
Calculated moves, they ain’t see I got the vision
Once they found out, I went missing
It’s crazy how my head started turning, then the world stopped spinning
Like damn
Like whoa, whoa
Why you gotta stop just go, go
I done been riding on a high, high
Yeah, I been nice on the… low low
But it’s time for you to notice me
I’m going places but I’m right where I’m supposed to be
This is just a dose of me
Get close to me
And vocally
Hear me show you who I chose to be
While I do it so explosively
Emotions flee from me into the pen
Wrote to see if we could reach amends
But woe is me cuz she ain’t reasoning
She believes we bleed to much to be some friends
She don’t believe that we should speak again
Odds that we achieve our dreams are thin
But odds are odd to me cuz even when
They stacked against us we still leave with wins (Ah)
I done came all this way so you see just where my stance is
I put this art that rhymes into this heart of mine and then I
Showed it all in the stanzas
This is my shot I’m takin my chances
I took control, it’s time to make damage
World is my oyster here is my canvas
World is my oyster here is my canvas (Come on)
I came up all this way, you see just where my stance is
I put art that rhymes from all my times and showed it in the stanzas
This my shot, I’ll take my chances
Took control let’s do some damage
World’s my oyster, here’s my canvas
World’s my oyster, here’s my canvas (Come on)
Life is all perception
I’m liking what I see so far (See so far)
I’m just getting started, I’m liking what that means so far
Looking back it didn’t seem so far
Now I got two projects and some singles out from all the time that I started this
I been in the gym for a long ass time
Now it’s looking like it’s getting kinda hard to miss
I’m accurate I’m Artemis
The Art of War it's on the list
The pen’s my sword, I sharpened it
Took the keys to start the whip
I’m the captain now and it’s marvelous
Now I got the stones
Walk into the room and you can feel it in your bones
Asking what I’m on next
But I need context
Stand up guy, still tryna sit at the throne
Asked 'em what they want
And they told me leave em alone
Just wanted a couple rings
Now I can’t put down the phone
Now that they can see what I’m on
They searching for a reason to bond
I’m just like chill, like damn, like whoa, whoa
Why you gotta stop just go go
You would ignore me all of the time, time
Now you really asking for the smoke, smoke
At least you finally noticed me
Still going places and I’m right where I’m supposed to be
This is just a dose of me
Get close to me
And vocally
Hear me show you who I chose to be
While I do it so explosively
It’s dope to see me get up when I’m knocked down
Touch the sky like I’m riding with the top down
Imma change the culture, you gone be shocked how
Cuz I ain’t come this far for me to stop now
Well, since I’m here, let’s continue
I’m bout to eat, and this beat was just on the menu
Painting pictures bout what I’ve been through
And what I’m boutta get into
Well if you ain’t already been knew (ah)
I done came all this way so you see just where my stance is
I put this art that rhymes into this heart of mine and then I
Showed it all in the stanzas
This is my shot I’m takin my chances
I took control, it’s time to make damage
World is my oyster here is my canvas
World is my oyster here is my canvas (Come on)
I came up all this way, you see just where my stance is
I put art that rhymes from all my times and showed it in the stanzas
This my shot, I’ll take my chances
Took control let’s do some damage
World’s my oyster, here’s my canvas
World’s my oyster, here’s my canvas (Come on)
