First Verse (13Five)
I woke up this morning feeling refreshed, roll up my weed, dressed/
For the weather or nots, a ^!$$% gotta eat, yes

Cadre, 13, remember the grind/
All the dues we paid since beginning of time
I can see why AllWise aint feeling the vibe/

We been working too hard at the end of the line
They art aint abstract, you can feel the design/
Its flat like C minor, I tell em be natural

Absolute, perfection, what we strive fo'/
You cannot see my drive wit yo eyes closed
I'm gone, and not looking behind me/

When ^!$$%s backstab I leave the scar to remind me
S-T-C, they seeing it finally/
Better late than never, prefer great to better

And watch for the peasant that plots to take the treasure/
Only a damn fool would sit and wait forever


Hook/Chorus
I love the underground, but I must surface/
The day we got truth is the day they cursed us

Songs like this get hate on purpose/
DJ play that Cadre
I don't wanna hear no more Rick and Wayne, not again man

DJ play that Cadre
You just played that Drake and Jay, give it a break, a
DJ play that Cadre


Second Verse (13Five)
Before I hop in this cab, let me tell you how I got in the lab,

I was 13 jotting in pads, who knew/
The music would go sour, my passion would overpower
The fact that we cant eat these beats, not true

I went to the tzu and didn't see any animals/
Just civilized men wit a fire, fuel I added too
Change ya attitude, show a little gratitude/

Plans became solid on Wildermere avenue
Detroit, and naw, I aint from around here/
They show me love cuz they know I put it down here

They know I listen, as long as it sounds clear/
And if it aint then get it out of here
cuz I don't sit wit a bunch of square ^!$$%s at the round table/

We the Gods, and naw I just saying
That the truth, if nothing else that I said was/
But don't let that go to your head cuz...


Hook/Chorus
I love the underground, but I must surface/

The day we got truth is the day they cursed us
Songs like this get hate on purpose/
DJ play that Cadre

I don't wanna hear no more Rick and Wayne, not again man
DJ play that Cadre
You just played that Drake and Jay, give it a break, a

DJ play that Cadre

Bridge

I gotta leave the underground, The game needs a change
That only we can bring, cuz nothing stays the same


Third Verse
In my lifespan, I made many flight plans/
But never got off ground so where I might land

Is unknown, and all this came from one song/
One knock on the door like lets flow
To this C.R.E.A.M. beat, im like who is Wu-Tang Clan/

And 20 years later now I'm shaking they hand
politicking on the what, hows, wheres, and whens/
The space between fact and fiction is very thin, now

Here we go again, C-Ca C-Cadre/
My government is ghetto what more can I say
The world on eggshells and hoping it don't break/

I toss them (*##$es in the industry's face
Like take that, the true and living don't compromise/
Anything that goes against what Allah designs

I don't party, pop mollies or pray to skies/
They putting swine in American pies, goodbye

Hook/Chorus
I love the underground, but I must surface/

The day we got truth is the day they cursed us
Songs like this get hate on purpose/
DJ play that Cadre
I don't wanna hear no more Rick and Wayne, not again man
DJ play that Cadre

You just played that Drake and Jay, give it a break, a
DJ play that Cadre
