Chorus:
I've been running (running) in this Circus... just
Tryna make change
I've been running running for the Surplus... but
It ain't ever came
I've been running running in my purpose... I guess that
I'm still on the way
I've been running running in this Circus...
Don't it make you want to stay
Verse:
As a shorty I just wanted to grow up
That may not sound too profound, in my city if you notice all
the signs that they throw up--
You'd be like know what?
Yeah you right
Feeling I'm not the type, always stick to my vibe
Watching way too much Disney had happiness out of sight
But cable, was a luxury
Made a discovery,
Everything had a price and I knew my worth luckily
Now uncovering the blinders on my life
You from the D, then that's just by design
Am I, in control or am I really not?
These questions lead me to dances I answer right on the spot
But
I just see me on stage
Say a couple words and the people are amazed
Am I a beast? or the Ring Master?
They clap for me, but he ain't really have to
Hit 'em with the raw, made em, shimmy shimmy ya
I'm ODB, heard they like it when I'm raw (I roar)
But I been fighting all these lions and pushing past all these tigers
Another day another hoop with the fire- But
Sometimes I see it with another view
Well I've been jumping but something tells me my actions leave me
vulnerable
I've been surrounded
On the Podium, a little high up now but still grounded
I'm
In the middle of these lions,
I'm a different breed, every breath is a
triumph
I'm a hunter always on my Panther trip, it's black love
But word from my Ancestors, If y'all ain't heard but you really want
that answer quick,
Shit I'm ASAP FERG on my anthem tip!
Chorus:
I've been running (running) in this Circus... just
Tryna make change
I've been running running for the Surplus... but
It ain't ever came
I've been running running in my purpose... I guess that
I'm still on the way
I've been running running in this Circus...
Don't it make you want to stay
Bridge:
We are running in this Circus,
trying to reach the Surface
Blast off, we can flourish
Dig Deep, we'll unearth it
We are running in this Circus,
trying to reach the Surface
Blast off, we can flourish
Dig Deep, we'll unearth it
We are... running

I like her like a... x3 uh uh
Verse:
I like her like a Metaphor, she's hard to get
I know you, heard it before but she's heaven sent
and you been running through my mind
All the dang time
Feelings intertwined when I figured she was mine,
She said wait, pause, feelings rather backwards- Had
to question feelings, Cause see- she is an actor
She presented maze, clue I had to master
Magnetized my heart, I knew I could attract her
Polarized blood and hugs I'm thinking of
Feeling right like doves, at the beginning of the month
No doubt we had to chill a bit, and she got frost bit
Left my impression, kept her guessing eyes lit
yea... it's like we're drinking and driving
Know where we're going but we don't know where the lines is
Driving slow likes fly and flicker, she said it's night time now
Gotta get to my mister
Chorus:
I just want you to know... I want you
So I keep it simple... I want you
It ain't gotta be complicated... I want you
So tell me won't you be my lady... I want you
Verse:
When I met you, I knew I'd be your next dude
Maybe not your next guy, but I'd be your best guy
I ain't gotta lie, I just leave that for my bedside
Wanna do you right, so I keep you at my left side
And That's why, with the fire that we make
We see the same signs, so it's gotta be fate
I got it all set, when we doing the date
You compared to your ex but we couldn't relate
Oh no! Something brand new, I'm breaking out your box
Tryna Crash Bandicoot,
Girl where you wanna go, said you know I got the coop
If you rolling with the mans, know I keep Campbell's soup
Yea I'm talking G double O D, GOOD
Another smart brother, I was raised from the hood
Got my mind upon the future, think I'm doing what I should
If I ever made you happy, I'm just doing what I could...
Chorus:
I just want you to know... I want you
So I keep it simple... I want you
It ain't gotta be complicated... I want you
So tell me won't you be my lady... I want you

[Verse 1]
Hold up, hold up
Feeling like
Maybe with a hint of lime
Listen too much of that N.E.R.D
Told me No One Ever Really Dies
For real
Fenty got me hypnotized
Contour the mask need to fix my eyes
Tell me who I ask for additional more
Propositional points so I get some lives
Y'all don't understand how I racked it up
I done bled the bone, need a maxi cup
Put it in my pen, let it act corrupt
Seen a Phoenix rise, living adjective
Vision
Did you listen?
Threw water in a well went fishin'
I done cast my hope, started diggin'
Pulled up the goat, Gods' chirren
Kid going for broke, heat be needed for growth
I ain't got the dough, but got clout with folks
And I got the talent
To say who you know
And I'm from the D, we balls deep in post
Let the beast explode
Pull out game I release the hold
Hit it with the quick fix, so at least she'll blow
At least it's vogue
Fashion don't police the dome
'Less I'm in my all black,
That's a need to know
Cross the x
Living off consequence
Confident settings anti optionless
Melting pot, sauce leaves compliments
On my world domination, need my condiments
Problem is, there's only 7 continents
Soon take over moon in a Martian whip
Darken it, know I put my heart in it
Brown it up, status quo arsonist
[Chorus]
I had to a make change
They await the rain
Just to step up to the stage
Hear the music play
Told 'em that it was mine
Had 'em scream my name
Illy throwin' up the sign,
And they all wave
I got some bag emojis flippin'
on my timeline
Okay okay (yeah)
Superstition,
Wonder have you seen me shinin'
(You see me shinin'?)
Okay okay
[Verse 2]
Let's get the honey that's the 3rd phase
One two,
My ***** Odd, told me hurry
Star calling
got the magic, list the survey
Rabbit in the hat
Hair block the ears Maine
everything
Hold up, hold up
Y'all make me wanna throw up
Just telling the truth, figured you slow up
But the realer you showed up
No luck
Hardly get no love,
Probably need 4 hugs
But you missed the train,
On my novocain
In wondaland, rock that Django Jane
Cheshire cat when I remember things
Mad hatter, gave me time to think
Tip the cap, let the 3rd eye blink
Ain't see the scope,
But I heard ya aim
That's a shame,
Lose touch with 'em
It's like they wipe and don't wash their hands
They back to front, yea they acting up
Really too grown for these accidents
[Bridge]
Let me go see, I've been around
Feet to the ground
I'm gonna be destiny bound
Buff up my noun
Another new sea, 'nother new world
One piece, I'm Oda
Tidbits from me, lipids from all
We taken over
[Chorus]
I had to a make change,
They await the rain
Just to step up to the stage,
Hear the music play
Told 'em that it was mine
had 'em scream my name
Illy throwin' up the sign
And they all wave
I got some bag emojis flippin'
on my timeline (yeah, yeah)
Okay okay (yeah)
Superstition
Wonder have you seen me shinin' (yeah, yeah, yeah)
I got some bag emojis flippin'
on my timeline (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Okay okay
Superstition,
Wonder have you seen me shinin'
(Whoa, yeah)

Illy Maine Detroit, Michigan
I was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan. Although I'm from the East side, I've lived on both sides of the city. I have
always been surrounded by music, the city itself breathes creativity and art, throughout all the struggle--I consider myself destined to be an artist. Here are the things I've learned on the way. Listen to my perspective a cat from humble beginnings and vibe.
