All Up In The Spot / The Saga / Struggle Continues..Once Again

 Were all up in the spot; whats the deal?  its like the Whitey Bulger jury deliberating..I told little homie the saga  / struggle continues! 


Making it real compared to what?  per Les McCann and or even  John Legend and the Roots;  we went back to our roots..now rocking these venues! 

Faking it until you make it?  whats? please!!  no deal!!  time is wasted ..gaining understanding from the urban legend was crucial!

....especially during critical stages of development; who will work with a bruh? 

...As we get with you;  breaking the ice like a ship in the Arctic Ocean!

...As we get with you; spotted others breaking through the ice after skating with sharp skates on due to global warming; they had the wrong notion!
