Limited Edition T-shirt (Cardinal red shirt w gun metal ink)
T-Shirt/Apparel + Digital AlbumThis is actually my favorite color combination. The picture is a little deceiving. The shirt's more like a brick red. The "gun metal" ink looks super sick too. It has a slight sparkle which actually makes it look like grip tape on a skateboard or black/grey sand paper. It really pops.

T-Shirt/Apparel + Digital AlbumSilver & Black for all the Raider fans out there. ***make sure to wash inside out cuz for some reason the bright silver ink fades after washer quicker than the other inks. Actually ends up with a cool slightly aged look, but just not as bright.***

about
We're all blessed. Give thanks.
lyrics
Baraph Flowbama..its time for change,
to a state of Nirvana. Shames Cobain.
Blow your mind with more lines than Soul Train.
Spit a bit more John McClane than John McCain.
My campaign's to maintain a standard of excellence.
So respect is commanded
cuz I'm a man. I supply and demand it
But handback compliments if they're backhanded.
'Tunnel Vision' expanded. I rap candid. They can't stand it.
The eagle has landed. Feel outstanding!
On a 'Highway to Heaven' like Michael Landon.
Still im dippin' through the traffic.
No need to mask it.
It can get drastic.
But still I feel fantastic
'til I hit the casket. That's it!
Cuz the blessings just rain down.
I can remain the same clown.
That's why I can't stay down
and the reason I'm gon' stay around.
(Repeat)
..like the equator. Way major.
Feeling like a Laker. (So many haters)
In this life, though they might try and shake ya,
NEVER let 'em break ya.
I still believe in he who won't forsake ya.
Made a trailblazer.
Hope I've grown into more than just a title taker.
Create a new lane. Just do your thang,
even if you aint found your passion,
Fan the flame and take action for maximum capitol gain.
Its hard to maintain faith with financial strain.
Notice the different approaches but you gotta stay focused.
If not, you're hopeless.
Yes, I know this one firsthand.
NOTHING's turned out how I planned.
The same year I got canned, I also traveled to the Holyland
Now I understand. I'm just a man.
I'm gon' do the best I can.
Cuz the blessings just rain down.
I can remain the same clown.
That's why I can't stay down
and the reason I'm gon' stay around.
(Repeat)
Nope, I aint going nowhere Jack.
I got my second wind and my swagger back
once I realized there many blessings in front of my eyes.
All the ones in disguise, it all happens for a reason.
And the seasons won't always be freezing.
Even fools who teased him help me find freedom.
Cuz it was then I understood I didn't need them.
Are you a help or a hindrance?
I need less bondage, more deliverance.
Yes I'm honored to have been given this
new lease on life. Homie I'm livin' it!
I'm giving it 100% or at least my best shot.
But lets not get caught in the pep talk.
I'm like I'm gon' strike while the iron's hot.
No more life in the mush-pot.
I thank God without much thought...
Cuz the blessings just rain down.
I can remain the same clown.
That's why I can't stay down
and the reason I'm gon' stay around.
