Lyrics The Shift - DJ Dax , Mega Ran

Things changed - stale, so gotta shift
Old and new: a rift
Things changed - no ones speaking for me
Just my music only
Mama told me don′t forget that
My life's only God′s, man, I'll
Dodge, what I want? Boss
Or from God feel lost, gosh
Left friends hurt, get gauze
Dropped him quick, no NOS
8th grade, stopped being his friend 'cause he was gay
Two years later, called him to tell him that ain′t okay
Had to pause, learn the lesson, same named
Uncle that I only met on death bed, way life
Goes, I don′t know my preference, you get
Validation from dudes not relevant, kept y'all
Guessing ′bout the message with no stressing
Blessed, shift's present, and I′m confessing

I got the
Shift... hitting the
Switch... zero
Assist... for better or
Worse... this is
Legit... legend, the
Myth... things have been
Diff... been on my shit

I got the shift, holding the shift

Things changed - got up outta the house and went to war, now an
AUX cord Lord, your music just plays in morgues
Man, what do y'all rhyme for? My price soared for features, go
Psych ward, this bounty hunting been what I′m "Prime 4"
Things changed - yes, I've been equipped with a conscious, but I
Remain on that nonsense, these Wily's don′t want this, it′s
DJ DAX mechanical, (in) the hood, get it popping
Any artist will pop in, start with the jocking - things
Changed - my childhood friends went out to play and
None of us realized that would be the last day, 'cause we
Grew up, I guess, I truly attest, I′m moved in my
Chest, Ronny's suicide, ain′t knew 'bout his death, ′cause things
Changed - I was born where they were "Rolling Cutter," now I
Go through what I got until I'm glowing color
Between what I was and I am, there is a rift, it's
Double O 1, it is what it is, call it the shift, on God

I got the
Shift... hitting the
Switch... zero
Assist... for better or
Worse... this is
Legit... legend, the
Myth... things have been
Diff... been on my shit

I got the shift, holding the shift

Finally patched the problems with my dad up
Told me life is too short to be sad, bruh, if it wasn′t for
Bad luck I probably wouldn′t have luck, speeding like
Initial D up in these streets; eventually I backed up
Put it in reverse, can't afford a therapist I put it in a verse
Kill ′em with kindness I rather, put 'em in a hearse
Could′ve been worse, I had one foot up in the dirt
'Cause I been puttin′ in this work every
Year, now everybody tell me this the year
And every year another best friend disappears
I been a monster at every single concert
No sponsors, every day, a new convert
Made a promise to make that grip
Passport in hand, I'mma take that trip
Top 5: Mega gotta make that list
If not, somebody gotta make that shift
