"Thank you to everyone who stuck with me through the thick and the thin. I know the wait was long and that this note is too short, but if there's one thing I'm starting to do now more in my life than I ever have is to appreciate those who continue to forever grind with me, other than dedicating my grind to those who've pitstopped along the way and got left behind ~"

OOC: There wont be any descriptions in this thread because 1) I think album threads flow easier if the songs don't have 3 paragraphs worth of background knowledge you'll forget in 2 seconds anyway in between each track and 2) I wrote a really lengthy documentary for Lotus that dives deep into the behind the scenes of this album and goes over every track in here that I will post later so I'd basically just be quoting all day and that'll ruin the whole point of the documentary in the first place. Planning on posting this by Friday, here's a little sneak peek.

Lotus looks out at the pool and over it, taking in the view as the handheld camera nears. She unfolds her arms, bringing the blunt in her right hand close to face before beginning to speak.

"2 years. Been out here for 2 years ...and so much has went down."

The blunt finally reaches her mouth as the camera gets even closer to reveal the tears on Lotus' face. She inhales and exhales quickly, almost as if to hide the fact that she's crying, using the sleeves of her jacket to erase any evidence of the lament while the smoke rolls in to cover up the action and slowly fades away.

"I should be happy. My nipples should be bursting with excitement right now. I mean, shouldn't I be happy? Fuck it, I'm happy. I'M HAAAAPPY!"

Lotus giggles a little as she yells out towards her pool, seeking confirmation in herself. She cracks a smile.

"I'M HAPPY!"


"You..Put down your damn phone and look at me! Just tell me your fucking story! Are you a 'China Doll', Lo??"

"No.."

"What are you, 7? Speak the fuck up!"

"NO."

"And how many times should you have to say that shit?!"

"ONCE!"

"So get on that mic and make me believe it the first time it comes out your mouth!"


"LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS!
LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS!
LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS!
LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS! LOTUS!"

"Y'all hear that? That's the sound of selling out the Barclays Center in a DAY, my nigga. A DAY."


Quote:
"I'M HAPPY!"

She yells once again, losing her footing a little, this time screaming out onto the palm trees and hills of her view. The camera begins to time-lapse,showing Lotus standing quietly in the back "yard" of her house. The sky dims a bit as she looks around and smokes casually.


"..I never really stopped rapping. I just... ionn' know.. stopped writing it down."


"I'm sorry but I just don't understand. 2 years and you're telling me you still don't have an actual album. Now Ms. Lui..er, Lotus, we've given you as much freedom as we possibly could on this project but if it's taking you this long, we might have to rethink the terms of your contract and unfortunately maybe even your contract as a whole.....is this really a good time for the cameras to be on?"

"You wanna know why it's taking me so long to get this shit done? It's because I'm aware. I'm trying, but I'm aware. If I had released my album when I first said I would, it would've been empty and incomplete. If I released the second time I said I would, it would've been repetitive and tired. If I had released this album last year, it would have been pointless and pretentious. If I released it now, it would just be a waste to be so close to actually getting something together, can't you see that?! My only job is to finish it now, you need to let me finish it!"


"Look, I know you've been going through a lot--you're always going through some off shit, that's just you're luck--and I know that in these off-shit times you expect the same level of loyalty from us as you put into us but 'Jini...have you ever stopped to think that you just shut yourself out from everyone else? How many walls do you expect us to break through? As many as you can put up and countless more?"

"..."


Quote:
He chuckles. "What do you have to say for yourself?"

"I mean, it's not like I can't swim, it's just that due to a tragic first swimming experience, I have successfully avoided doing so since then."

"Which was..?"

"Being thrown in a pool and being cheered on by 8 brothers to not be a lil bitch and drown."

He sucks his teeth and laughs. "All us hood niggas went through that!"

"Shut up! You don't know my life story!"

"You might know how it feels , but you don't know what I'm feeling!" He continues to laugh, mocking her while quoting lyrics from "The Prophecy".

She lightens up at the sound of one of her first songs that she's released. "Ayyy! You know that I dealed , but you don't know why I was was dealing!"

"You can decide if I'm strong willed,"

"but bitch I'm telling you that I was willing! To do whatever it took, and I never regretted that!..It's only been a couple of months... I aint never looking back.."

She laughs one stifled laugh before immediately heading back into contemplation, turning back around and looking out onto the evening sky.

Bitches swear they know pressure
This here is an imprint
This here is my real stint
No real scent but you still shit
Pushing back albums, indent
Meanwhile they bars still weak, malnourishment
Even the esés I stuck with done fucked up, adhesion
Coming back for no reason
Joker committing treason
Only did it in my leisure
Now I'm rushing in with my legion
Was the deer in headlights
Now it's pedestrian season
I done fixed all self-afflictions
Y'all should've never stepped in my region
Should I say sorry for the wait?
Continue on with the big bang?
Pile up in aisle 8
This is why we stay in our own lanes
Cause I'm too strong, Ed Coan.. Andy Bolton
Finally got a good thing going
I'm a senior in my first trimester
These other gits still ain't showing
These twats can't birth bops
Those twits stopped trying
Bitches think they know pressure
Why the fuck they lying?
So scared of taking bed rest
Can't straighten up when yo head wet
You could really learn something, I'm the only nigga who gets it
All they know is privilege
All they know is hits after hit
I know how to flop, rob, cop, sit at the top and fall from it
No doubt, I'm the best at it
Loyalty, I'm the biggest addict
And none of y'all was there for me
Not one of y'all was there for me
Would cut yall ass from my whole album
Make this anger my first record
But I'm just tryna find chill now
Can't afford to fuck up with my record

I remember when mama told me
Girls were to be heard, not seen
Shit, maybe her English wasn't that good
Or maybe for once a mother actually understood

I guess they expected me to get on my knees and suck for help
But since I was getting pricked either way, I was picking cotton myself
I don't need a man to tell me, bitch, I'm feeling myself
This shit don't need no hype, bet money it'll chart by itself
High seddity niggas'll hear this and get high cholesterol
After all, I was just supposed to sit still and look pretty..
China doll

You see there's good girls and there's bad chicks
Then there's the women that don't have time for bullshit
You see there's sexists and there's feminists
And the sad thing is I can't even find the difference

I rapped bout the shit I was overcoming
And y'all blew them tracks off
I wore my heart on my sleeve
All y'all just tore that shit off
But where the fuck do you get off?
Where the fuck do you get off?
Bitch, you my riding my bus
Where the fuck do you get off?
This that NJ Transit, this that M.T.A.
And when it's just me and Li Lang, it'll be P.A.N.Y.N.J.
Just wanted my music to move somebody
But I guess I should've called U-Haul
I refuse to be a China Doll
I'd rather risk it all
Smash that Porcelain face
Replace it with a brick wall
They want me to promote that new Mercedes
Y'all know Asians can't drive
Rather get high off codeine
Than sip my life away on wine
Who's mouth are you trying to control?
Wasting time if it's Lo's
Who the fuck are you trying to oppose?
You're wasting time if it's Lo
My eyes aren't slanted enough to be Chinese
And I'm too pale to be Black
I'm too intelligent to be street
Bars just too real for rap
How the public gon' encourage me to do me?
How yall gon' say "Nah, not like that!"?
Y'all see these bitches tryna take credit?
Best believe there's a reason for all that!
See how they were buck and wild when I was quiet?
But publicly apologizing now that I'm ready to bump?
They said, "Lotus, swearing isn't ladylike!"
How about y'all kiss my lady lumps?
Yo, just because you're just now hearing from me
Don't make the mistake of thinking I've been quiet
Am I supposed to be intimidated by all these "queens"?
'Cause I just feel like starting a few riots
For a black girl, I don't have enough booty to attempt a moon but I'd still affect your tidal waves
Not making any clean versions so the kids can jam out, too, but I'll still troll your fucking airplay

LOTUS
LIYAH
MIAMI
RUM

Don't act like you don't take notice every time you hear the name Lotus
Like you don't take out your notepad and try to take notes when
Everything to do with me is taking over Twitter's worldwide trends
Internationally taking over with my worldwide reputation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation , setting some new limitations
We ain't in competition , you're just a student - I'm a legend in the making
'Cause my bars are on bath salts , snacking on the mainstream faces
Bath water full of blood , thought you said you wanted wanted something to soak in
Yeah , I dropped it , bummer
Bet you this shit'll still be selling towards the end of the summer
Platinum
I always win the gold , bitch , you're just a runner up
If you were really running shit , I wouldn't have to search for your bars and a couple of fucks
Didn't you know your flow's delivering like DiGiorno's , not Pizza Hut ? (Haa)
I'm a 5 star bitch , you're just a mut
I'm a flower bomb and girl you're just a cunt
Embrace the fact that my face is plastered everywhere
World tour sold out and yes bitch I'm hitting everywhere
That's Shanghai , Hong Kong , Tokyo , Bangkok
Birmingham , London , Glasgow , Armagh
Milan , Paris , Sydney , Berlin
Moscow , Oslo , Rome , Athens

Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Setting some new limitations
I got no limitation , I got no limitation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Setting some new limitations
I got no limitation , I got no limitation

These hoes so mad that they start talking reckless
I can't talk bitch cus I'm picking out my set list
They tried to put out my flame and missed, extinguished
I still be ballin on these bitches with a sprained wrist
These bitches must got amnesia
Earned my stripes like a zebra, you still all white, got you shook like a seizure
About as common as they come like Felicia
You the best? Bitch, be gone, take a trip to Geneva
Come back first class and still couldn't find a reason
On my Elmer Fudd shit, cus it's hunting season, I swear I'm looney tunes
But I ain't ever leaving, so you can have me committed
Seize my demons, Bedlam, go ahead and call the deacons
Realest alive? Bitch speakin treason
Conquering the world with my own damn legion
I'm allergic to phony bitches so I'm sneezin', every shot you took ya credibility weakened
You on the verge of depletion!
And when it's over and done, the story will be written
Hero or a villain you'll play you're only role, victim
Asian nation, Rum in Miami, we the underdogs of this story
But bitches stay tryna to take all of the glory
Killin lames cus the world's my casket and
Fuck the bench you can be the mascot
Lo lang will be teachin the classes
Principal, bitch you know you not passin!
Cus I'm soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
We got this boo you can stay on vacation
Poe on your career, bitch you raven
My stock stay going up while yo ass is in deflation

Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Setting some new limitations
I got no limitation , I got no limitation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Setting some new limitations
I got no limitation , I got no limitation

Maybe I’ve been slacking
They say Hotel Miami could have gone diamond, not platinum
But I say that ain’t too bad for some white rap
Dominating hip-hop and all that
Maybe I’ve done enough to take a step back
Competition dropped off, so Miami stepped up to the plate
Took her chance to show the world that she could be somethin’ great
Now I’m swinging for the fences
I’m aiming for the stars
I got them dollars signs blinking in my eyes
Designer sh*t and big ass cars
So next year you’ll see me flying first class
With Nads and her GirlSpice crew
In the meantime I’m in the studio
Working on album number two
Writing them bars for you to sing back to me
Anticipation starts now
That’s a f*cking guarantee

Is this what we doing in 2015?
Listen to your album? Bitch I'd rather hear you queef!
Cheesin' mad hard, Twitter mentions on fleek
I'm done declaring wars bitch I'm announcing defeat
It's funny how you really think you're tough meat
Like you been running shit since before the track meet
When you on the web, you stay acting shady
But the only reason you outside is cause you can't afford in on my meet & greets
I'm sure there's one for all but bitch I'm greedy
Reachin' hard for those retweets, ain't never seen no one so needy
This is Rocky's show, Muhammad should have stayed in
I think they like the truth better when you just playin
You claiming that you're queen, but if we handing out some titles
I am the Messiah and you chicks are my disciples
Run, Forest, run, I'll stick with walking on water
While my stacks are getting taller, y'all stay throwing tantrums like a toddler
So peace be with you, children
Passing beef for music like we running out of chickens
Cheapest in the market, still got nowhere to park it
You only top shelf cause we stay sold out, Target

Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Setting some new limitations
I got no limitation , I got no limitation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Soaring ... past ... the highest elevation
Setting some new limitations
I got no limitation , I got no limitation

You asked her who's her favorite rapper, she said William
You said describe yourself in one word, she said one in a million
She's different ... yep, she's different
Middle finger up to her so called "competition"
And because of it, her opposition
Have ceased to exist, completely vanished
'Cause she was never focused on them or focused on men
She was focused on life, just quietly plotting
'Cause one of these days she'll be a money maker
And on that day you will remain her devoted hater
Damn, how much I've wished this was my history
How much I've wished I would actually do something good for me
See, the thing is, nobody's perfect
It depends on who you're talking to if you're actually worth it
But when it comes to shit like all those girls claiming they're independent
She has to go as far as calling herself individualistic
She's just that different

I sold a few records, building up my net worth
Record all day and don't stop until my throat hurt
Depend on writing until I run out of ink, no time to rest, no time to sleep
No time for love, no time for feelings 'cause last time my number 1 never made it to 3
But keep talking nigga

He said that he sold a few records
He said that he broke a few rules
He said he was living under pressure
But he was sure that I could be his muse

It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world
How come you always runnin?
It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world?
So tell me something, tell me something

They walk around expecting some hyperventilation
But get around a real woman and suddenly intimidated
Telling me how good my music is like I don't know it yet
Like in my head I ain't convinced I'm already the greatest
It makes me laugh, the way y'all think y'all wear the pants or something
But can't afford a belt, can't keep them up for nothing
Treat your groupies like shit but somehow still wondering
Why all the girls you hit always turn out to be shuttling
Niggas got the nerve to speak on how these females be trifling
Compiling with your friends but swear "I'm looking for a wife, 'Jin"
What am I? 'Jini in the bottle, "You could change my life, 'Jin"
"I know I've done some wrong but for you, I'll be right, 'Jin"
"Wasn't ready before, but this is now and I'm ripe, 'Jin"
What you think, is he a liar or is he all about the hype, 'Jin?
Fuck 'em all, make them shower with that no and hope it do sting
Rinse and repeat, I swear this shit is tiring
But keep talking nigga

He said that he sold a few records
He said that he broke a few rules
He said he was living under pressure
But he was sure that I could be his muse

It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world
How come you always runnin?
It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world?
So tell me something, tell me something

I'm a reeeal one, love you even without your griiills on
Treat you like a human cause I know you're more than juuust guns
I'd never look at your friends like your laaast one
Ain't that impressive? Ain't that impressive?
Y'all see how y'all sound now? Just stupid and stupider
Is this what y'all come up with when y'all plan it out? Make as much sense as landing on Jupiter
I don't fall for respect, I demand it, inhibitor
Don't just sweet talk, boy, preach it, minister
Y'all gon' get the boot if y'all keep trolling, admin
Ain't saying nothing new but nigga keep talkin

He said that he sold a few records
He said that he broke a few rules
He said he was living under pressure
But he was sure that I could be his muse

It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world
How come you always runnin?
It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world?
So tell me something, tell me something

"There's an old saying in Tennessee—I know it's in Texas—probably in Tennessee—that says, fool me once—shame on—shame on you. If you fool me we can't get fooled again."

It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world
Yet you cant even run it
It's your world
Yet you cant even run it

Wake up in the morning
Already thinking of him
Oddly always running on her mind, call it Forest Gumpin'
She don't understand it, don't even know what love is
Part of the reason why she can't see that all he wants is lovin'
So damn blind, it happens all the time
Cautionary tales seemed to have slipped her mind
She put forward all her trustin' and ignored the signs
Caught up in a fantasy, ain't thinking nothin' of it
He must be Prince Charmin'
Yea he's Prince Charmin'
He may not be perfect, but ain't there different versions ?
Disregardin' all the warnings, her heart's saying they're just hatin'
But her minds thinking different, still she isn't paying it no attention
'Cause 1-4-3
1-4-3
That's what the message reads every time her heart beats
But he ain't get the message
They warned her like discretion
Now he's playing her like a drum...percussion

All that love, the love goes to waste
All that love, the love was in vein
Didn't have enough for both of them
So she put it all in him-put it-put it all in him
Put it all in him-put it-put it all in him
Now there's nothin'...

Can't stop strippin'
Can't stop dippin'
Can't stop sipping 'cause she wants to stop livin'
So she never stops pushin'
Mollies stay poppin'
She's pushin' the limits but somehow still at the bottom
Under the influence but she claims she's over him
Closer to the top
The higher that she gets
The harder she's gonna drop
She's sick and tired of tryna hold on to her credit
So fuck it, start using that debit
Watch her image start to lessen
Watch her life start to cave in
All because of him
She'll never be the same
All because of him
Shit that you'd call nothing just took it to the max
Fuck is she to do when she gave a man all that she had?
And he didn't send it back
Bet he didn't even notice it
She thought it was true love they had but he was only playing games
They told her not to do it
Damn she should've listened
But now it's too late 'cause...

All that love, the love goes to waste
All that love, the love was in vein
Didn't have enough for both of them
So she put it all in him-put it-put it all in him
Put it all in him-put it-put it all in him
Now there's nothin'...

All that love she put it all in him
'Cause she didn't have enough for the both of them
Guess she should've learned what love was before she claimed she was in it
Mama always told her to love yourself more than you'll ever love him
Damn, she should've listened-damn, she-damn she should've listened

All that love, the love goes to waste
All that love, the love was in vein
She put it all in him-put it-put it all in him
Put it all in him-put it-put it all in him

All that love, the love goes to waste
All that love, the love was in vein
Didn't have enough for both of them
So she put it all in him-put it-put it all in him
Put it all in him-put it-put it all in him
Now there's nothin'...

Your game of blitz, your game of blitz, your game of blitz
Baby, I could be your quick fix
Blow out that wick, blow out that wick, blow out that wick
Baby, I could be your quick fix

I could be that girl in your closet, be the world when you pause it
Be your personal ATM whenever you need to deposit
Be that girl that you fight with, but them fights got nothing to do with talking
Be that girl you collide with when you don't feel like dissolving
These ain't problems we solving, do it right, we won't have none
U and I, that ain't nothing, just a bunch of facial expressions
That algebraic perception, plug in when you don't want to feel nun'
Headed head first into this deep end, you better go for the long run

We both know who runs this board
And you know what they say bout those who live by the sword
Learned to leave no avenue unexplored
If you're the boss, tell me who am I working for?
You've already kinged me
Just by fronting like I'm not what you need
But baby, if ever need be, you know.. I.. could.. be..

Your game of blitz, your game of blitz, your game of blitz
Baby, I could be your quick fix
Blow out that wick, blow out that wick, blow out that wick
Baby, I could be your quick fix

I'm your knight, just in shining lace
I heard that Alekhine's gun was something hard to face
But I got you in that absolute pin, the kind of bind that's hard to get in
We're just suckers for sin, a ruthless pair of blind pigs
Somebody call on the bishop 'cause what we do ain't in vain
Feeling like we've never knew we could and yet we don't feel a thing
With me you speak proper, no time for spitting no game
And you wont need to eat out after I feed you this Lo mein

We both know who runs this board
And you know what they say bout those who live by the sword
Learned to leave no avenue unexplored
If you're the boss, tell me who am I working for?
You've already kinged me
Just by fronting like I'm not what you need
But baby, if ever need be, you know.. I.. could.. be..

Spell it out real quick!

You're just too busy fighting
Put down your piece just for me to find it
Why do you always have to run, love?
You know it's hard to hide it, I can tell that you're excited
Easy come and go
Too bad this time you don't have control
Get used to my way (my way!)
Even this couture recognizes, there ain't nothing else like it

...Checkmate!

Wont you just face it?
Can't be your porcelain
No heart, just a hole where all remorse lays
Is that okay?
I'm not your porcelain
No heart, just a lot of space

You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and fight my demons off
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here to brush my hair when my mirror breaks
You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and look my demons in the eye
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here even when it starts to get ugly

I don't need you to wipe the tears from my eyes, I'm a big girl
Don't need to beg for your help, I'm on my own in this world
Not gonna lean on your shoulder when I know it'll go away
If it's gonna be anyone, I'll be the one to aim the gun at my face
There's enough scabs on my back from the stabs of the past
The blood's already draining fast, aint no time to look back
I've been up, I've been down, think I'm settling now
All this weight on my shoulders settles in by the pound
So used to dragging my feet but it's over now
Waiting to exhale, this is the countdown

Wont you just face it?
Can't be your porcelain
No heart, just a hole where all remorse lays
Is that okay?
I'm not your porcelain
No heart, just a lot of space
-
You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and fight my demons off
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here to brush my hair when my mirror breaks
You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and look my demons in the eye
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here even when it starts to get ugly

Stop screaming it hurts you more than it hurts me, the fuck does that mean?
Isn't this what the world wanted to see, a weak me, something y'all can snap easily?
Or is it, you don't care at all, you just want to keep your lunch in your throat?
I should self destruct on my own time, after all, that was apart of the hoax
Never meant to set the shelter you offered on fire, but I don't mind dying in this blizzard
My only hope but I made you the victim, can't you just leave me to pick my own blisters?
You had a chance to give a shit, why wait until the last minute?
They say Alice fell down the hole, I'm just tryna jump in it
Never did like the plot but I just gotta see the ending
Bottom of the barrel, it was all finished from the get in

Wont you just face it?
Can't be your porcelain
No heart, just a hole where all remorse lays
Is that okay?
I'm not your porcelain
No heart, just a lot of space

You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and fight my demons off
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here to brush my hair when my mirror breaks
You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and look my demons in the eye
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here even when it starts to get ugly

I have failed you, this I know
I have failed you, this I know
I have failed you, yes, I know
For you, I really do wish I could change
But there's some things we just have to face

You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and fight my demons off
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here to brush my hair when my mirror breaks
You should run, you should hide, don't try to stay behind and look my demons in the eye
Don't act like you care, that you'll still be right here even when it starts to get ugly

Never really knew what they were walking into, brick wall
Been tryna meet me in person but just can't say nothing at all
Yea, I got you on payroll but don't sit here and act like you know me
9 to 5, I'll take my time, don't you motherfucking rush me!

Oh my God, oh my God
Why you reachin? Why you reachin?
Oh my God, oh my God
Broke my leash and crushed these leeches

"Bitch, you fired, you already tired? It's my money that gave you that name"
All lies, shouldn't have to Remind, I swear this label shit is lame
The other day, I heard getting Matt off is how I got on in the first place
The other day, I heard that I had some shit going on with Li Lang
A gay profusion, a lack of pigment, they still swear that I'm not black
Lotus went to rehab for crack
Haven't you heard? Back taxes is the only reason why she's back
Facts on facts, facts on facts
Facts on facts, facts on facts
Leaning shit about myself back to back, that's why I keep these tabloids stacked

Never really knew what I had walked into, brick wall
Been asking for my comment but I can't say nothing at all
They got on payroll just by acting like they know me
9 to 5, I'll take my time, don't you motherfucking rush me!

Oh my God, oh my God
We stay reachin, we stay reachin
Oh my God, oh my God
Fuck them stars, I swear I'm Venus

I'm the one, one
Took over with an article, only one
It's been a year, it's been so long
But these mentions still blowing up my phone
Yeaaah, what bitch you know could bark 365 miles away and still send them all running for home?
They be rapping and swearing them and hoes can't get along
But all along they've been writing for the same shooow
Got plenty more to show for it
You hold a record? Bitch I'm coming for it!
Been waiting for me to run the game, screaming "Run Forest!"
Lotus still the same, don't start acting foreign
Facts on facts, facts on facts
Facts on facts, facts on facts
Leaning shit about myself just by staring at these stacks

Never really knew what this was but I think I kind of like it
Ain't have no time for releases when I was too damn busy fighting
For my spot, for my plug but all along it was mine
9 to 5, I'll take my time, don't you motherfucking rush me!

Oh my God, oh my God
Broke my leash and crushed these leeches
Oh my God, oh my God
Fuck them stars, I swear I'm Venus

Don't you forget it!

Bow down
Bow down
Bow down

You used to talk so much shit then
Thought you said I wasn't gonna be shit
I bet you're staring at them billboards
Asking, "how did this happen?"
I hope you're enjoying destitution
While my life comes to fruition
You should get down on your knees and
Regret the fact you gave my demeanor reason
Despite.. tryna bring me down
Called me the buffoon , now you're looking like the clown
Straight to the top, ain't coming down
Carrying around stacks like they don't weigh pounds
Duffle bag full of Benji's , can't wait to throw it
3 milli from the venue , can't wait to blow it
New Lamborghini , keeping the economy flowing
Rooftop missing and when I stopped , the tires kept rolling , yo..

What about you?
What about you, yea, what about you ?
Not even worthy enough to touch the bottom of my shoe
You was spittin' on me , now I'm stuntin' on you
You know what you should do ?
Oh ...

There was no debate about it , I was always the bait for the hate once they knew I was capable of sprouting
And how glad I am to see the game has changed , 'cus now my career's full on blooming while you're stuck rotting away
Been waiting on the check to get to me, turned out it paved a whole new way
And really? I think I'm liking where I'm going
I remember when we used to roll one and dream about endless amount of hundreds
Nowadays I fly out to Milan and spend them like it's nothing
On all my cousins to make sure they got a little something...even if that something is everything!
The way things've panned out is insane
8 months in on my career , man I swear this is the longest dream
Can't help but remember back when I was failing history
Now I'm holding records, nigga, making history!
Releasing nothing but platinum records, that's luxury!
Sold out the Barclays in a day, the irrelevancy!
Didn't turn out how they wanted, but fuck that shit, I'm everythang!
It ain't just that I'm winning, but knowing that L is forever screaming your name

What about you ?
What about you , yea , what about you ?
Not even worthy enough to touch the bottom of my shoe
You was spittin' on me , now I'm stuntin' on you
You know what you should do ?
Oh ...
You should get down on your knees and
Regret the fact you gave my demeanor reason..
Bow down!
Bow down!
Bow down!

Hmm, bitches don't even know the half
But they judge like it's a philanthropic gesture on their behalf
Yea , I did a few dumb things as a youngin'
But it's not like it whites out what I'm becoming
Hung with the wrong friends who threw me in the deep end
Got to the point where it was weapons vs. Sarojini's bare hands
Yeah I could've died that day
But I guess God don't ride that way
Spittin' a few bars, playing the blame game
Knowing I put myself in pain, just for the gain
But the gain never came so the chase ended up driving me insane
Thinking there was something I could attain for doing the wrong thing

Locked outside
(Kicked out, on the curb)
Locked outside again, again, again

Locked outside
(Kicked out, on the curb)
Locked outside again, again, again

No, I'm not grown , barely even legal
But I'm something holy rising out of the illusion , like a steeple
I always knew I would never be the type who could fall back on my free throws
So I gained some wisdom, now even to these cold streets, I'm lethal
Act like a thug, but I think intelligent
That's why my raps are never a disappointment
Fuck a one hit wondering, all this ringtone rap make a sista' wanna kill a bitch
You are just a rhymer, bitch, so stop hogging up the charts
Make room for Lotus the lyricist, she's already leaving her mark
That's why I don't need your respect when I'm spitting bars
Wherever my shoe game walks, bet money it'll be a landmark
Fresh out the womb to the tomb, they know who we are...(Bosses)
That's why they ain't fucking with mine
Cause everybody knows that I be packing that 9...-7-3
Saraojini
Don't make the mistake of underestimating me

Locked outside
(Kicked out, on the curb)
Locked outside again, again, again

Locked outside
(Kicked out, on the curb)
Locked outside again, again, again

Feeling like I gotta tell myself this shit again
Rose above the streets, don't know how to act again
Hard trying to stay intact and alert at all times
Why? 'Cause killing raps isn't a victimless crime
Started from the bottom, but I'm not letting you look at me now
I've came a long way, but this isn't the point I wanna stop and brag at right now
I'm on the run and it's impossible for me to look back
'Cause every time it's a wrap, my mind keeps racing off to the next rap

Locked outside
(Kicked out, on the curb)
Locked outside again, again, again

Locked outside
(Kicked out, on the curb)
Locked outside again, again, again

Locked outside
Are you ready?
Locked outside again, again, again
I think it's finally the right time
(Kicked out, on the curb)

I was nothing but a little girl running through the schoolyard
Don't you just love how quick adversity is quick to catch you off guard ?
Damn, who would've thought that life could become this hard ?
Seems like everything Lotus tried to do to help , tore the family apart
Yea , it was all my fault , so I guess I can't get mad
But don't you dare try to discredit my passion by saying I thought I was big and bad
I just got a little mad , not at the world , but the system
Why do I have to wait to eat when the government gives me permission ?
Seems like food stamps and welfare didn't complete the mission
So I felt like it forced my hand , I had to chip in
Barely got anything from the man because apparently we had too much funding
How the fuck is a part-time job going to feed a house of seven ?!
Wait , let me cool it down and bring it back
I really meant to make this a feel good track
Ya know , something like a memoir of going through this and that
And overcoming the obstacles against the stated facts
Even had the nostalgic beat on so I could bring you back
To the old rap so we could all help kill this new crap

Music is to be my only victim , so don't look forward todiss records , no time for killing girls
I plan on slaying rap like Perseus and then riding on the back of it's offspring out of this world
Bet money that Lotus the flower bomb will elevate to levels that you never knew existed
When you see my career soar , I know the feeling of defeat has never been that exquisite
Rap will feel the wrath of Lotus' endeavor
I want the whole fucking kingdom , bitch you can have the treasure
The amount of my ambition just cannot be measured
Since I know that my life was filled with pain to prepare me for the pleasures
And everything I went through was a contract of prosperity
And everything I've lost will be restored due to my lack of animosity
When it comes to struggle , perseverance is the key
After while you'll realize that it's just a phantom that haunts your reality
Ha , do you hear me preaching and shit ?
Just last year I was incompetent and ignorant
Inadequate
For anything other than stripping or dealing , I was not fit
These bitches really thought they had my whole future figured out and shit
Man , those teachers really didn't know the half
Thought I was going to be a fail in life because as an Asian I got a C in math
Really bitch ? Notch it down a pitch
I'm not going to let you predict my future without a crystal ball in hand and shit
Please , excuse the French that I insert in these rhymes
I swear in time , your mind will no longer be adjusted to the basics
I already knew there would be a process before you could take this in

OK , so we're here again .
Another sob story blamed on the government from another black kid
Funny how the sympathy decreases when your life is twistedly stereotypic
That's " ignant "
Destitution isn't a figment
Being poverty stricken doesn't come and go like it's an illness
But I'm not complaining , I've learned how to embrace it
Because the success is speeding up the process of abrasion
I'm not the first to walk the moon , or to write this story
But Lotus the flower bomb will be the first to copyright the glory
So fuck a nigga with the balls to call me authentic
You might know how it feels , but you don't know what I'm feeling
You know that I dealed , but you don't know why I was was dealing
You can decide if I'm strong willed , but bitch I'm telling you that I was willing ,
To do whatever it took , and I never regretted that
It's only been a couple of months but I'm not looking back
Came a long way from eating when government gave permission
Thanks to all of you guys' intuition, my fate has been written
... All in stone now , so even if you wanted to , you can't object now ...
You'll just have to hold your peace .

I remember when it used to be simple
I just wanted to change the world
I just wanted to make money
I just wanted to be the it girl
I just wanted the whole world
Without having to face who I was
I just wanted to live a life with no direction
But still know, just in case, what my path was
And shit, I guess I know now what I was supposed to be
Returning to the scene to find a bunch of label generated me's
Finding the same beat for 10 different songs
They making ignorant rants out of my own damn psalms
All I see is me, me, call me narcissistic
Surrounded in a world where it's all counterfeited
The shit they thought was cute were but self-afflictions
Took the time to change, just for it to be labeled a dereliction

I hope I don't turn out the same
Cause nothing on these airwaves change, even when you conduct the plays
Pull them in with bad blood and gold chains, suddenly, "when will your fave?"
I did it yesterday, now I don't even know what for
Losing all motivation in this one-sided war, Flower Bomb vs. C-4

Yall bitches is all the same
Yall bitches is all the same
Yall bitches is all the same
Yall bitches is all the same
Yall bitches is all the same
Yall bitches is all the same
And it's all the same to me

I remember when it used to be simple
I just wanted to make the cut
I just wanted to be considered
I just wanted to be loved
By someone, or something
The attention, it wasn't nothing
I was too attached, yet I wasn't
I was losing it but I was abundant
I was infected, I was neglected
When I was reckless, they made investments
Shit I was trialed, fuck I was tested
And when there wasn't much more left they went scouting..
Heh
You just what they found, bitch, that's the reality of it all
We're nothing but Cash Cows in the eyes of the label's
The spectators only see China Doll's

It just keeps turning out the same
Cause nothing on these airwaves change, even if we conduct the plays
Pull them in with bad blood and gold chains, suddenly, "when will your fave?"
I did it yesterday, now I don't even know what for
Losing all motivation in this one-sided war, Flower Bomb vs. C-4

How come we're all the same?
How come we're all the same?
How come we're all the same?
How come we're all the same?
How come we're all the same?
How come we're all the same?
In the end, it's all the same to me

Really thought I was doing something different...
I really thought I'd be the one to make a difference...

Length: 2:43
Genre: Hardcore Hip Hop
Written by: Sarojini "Lotus" Lui
Produced by: FancyN

I am Lotus the flower, I am Lotus the bomb
Watch me pose like a butterfly then reveal I'm the one
You hear that big ass thump? That's me making an entrance
Tried so hard to tear me down, but I became the city centric
Franchise turned into a metropolis without a spec of real politics
Tell me what sense does it make? Is your lame major label going to waste?
Debut went #1 independently, this industry just begged for a taste
Story from there got too real, these fakes still remained in they place
Somewhere past "getting me started", 2 steps from "long, gone and finished"
Tried to keep a true tunnel vision but the focus took too long, Finnish
Thinking like, "Fuck, I don't ever come in second
But let me get it together, I'll be back on top in just seconds"
I'm just guessing that y'all might need a refresh on exactly who this is
But fuck the past, I'm the new bitch on the block, run along and tell your friends
Cause now I'm bigger and badder, I'm revamped and madder, so hungry for justice, the verdict don't matter
And no, your stats they dont mater, hell no, your bars never mattered
None of my feuds ever mattered, used to provide shade like my name was Mad Hatter
But I'm engulfing the world now, from Shanghai to Jersey, Godzilla Godzilla
I'm eye-raping you niggas, envisioned this whole lane as my steak dinner
You pussies stopped at these other females, I'm coming for the whole venue
Let's try Sarojini vs. the men, boo, used to getting swung on, this time I'll be first to
Who first up? Come on down, let me be your Bob Barker!
Yet to see you hoes in a cypher. Fuck these sound bites, where's the barkers?
Where's the beat, where's the music? This is all that I'm feeling
Wont play nice, wont blow steam, got niggas all in they feelings
...And they wondering why they always catch me frownin
Then turn around and talk numbers like we out here for accountin
Shit they really wondering why they always catching me frownin
Then throw they names in with my name as if they even amountin'

Have I been putting all my anger into the wrong spot? Am I out here fisting?
Do they think it's cute to keep forgetting? Should I leave this shit unlisted?
Cause I'm a successful cunt and aint much more to be done
I'm a successful bitch and aint much more to be pitched
Been putting all my anger into the wrong spot like I'm out here fisting!
They think it's cute to keep forgetting? Watch me leave this shit unlisted!
I'm a successful cunt, petty shit is my fun
I'm a successful bitch, done lived my whole life pissed

Wooh!

Was that too vulgar?
Somewhere somehow someone's thinking that it's bad that I'm bolder
These days I'm much older, and even more pretentious--call it self-indulgent
This system is obsessed with self-loathing--You the bread holding it?
I'm the mold, bitch
Tell me who I am, don't tell me who I am'nt
It's hard to accept the crown, even harder to admit defeat, innit?
When you finally see the stream, it's hard to admit your feet weren't even in it
Don't let them streams get you feverish, been there done th..

Cara: Ahhh holy sh*t, it is finally here! It may have taken a while to finally hear this record but it has been worth the wait in every way. Every track is an absolute winner, but in particular "All That Love" and "Bow Down" are my personal favourite stand-outs. Also I love the subtle shots that you've thrown in these songs, because it has been a couple of years of people questioning your legitimacy, but this instantly shuts them up, because it is on another level. We are talking upper echelon sh*t right here, not just in hip-hop but in music as a whole.

OOC: This is just amazing, lyrically. I have no idea how you come up with lyrics like this!

CosaMendoza: yaaas! It took you long enough to release this album, and I'm so happy that you did it now! The fact that I was only 15 when "On The Curb" came out is shocking me omg. I'm really amazed by the album, and as I said, I'm happy that you released it now and not back then in 2013. I mean, I wouldn't understand much of the lyrics, I guess. So, yeah. I love this album, by far one of my favourite Hip Hop albums this decade.

Lotus: Yas Cara, fuck me up! You don't understand how much I appreciate all your support! From what you've doe for me on the label to what what you've done for me as a fan in general, I truly couldn't thank you enough. And not you naming one of my favorite songs off of this album as your favorite, great minds really do think alike.

Lotus: Fuck you're young LOL I guess I'm getting old now, I never really think about all the time that's passed. Thank you so much babe, this album took a hot minute to put together and the response maks me so ecstatic. Your favorite Hip Hop album of this decade? STOP ITTTT!
