Mary 05:21
See I first met Mary It was safe to say It was back in the day When her father use to force her to play And the coward would say "Mary this our little secret you'll be a bad girl if you can't keep it" So Mary kept it, locked up in her vault She thought if mommy left daddy that would be her fault Wasn't her fault, see what would you do? Who hurt you the most Protected you too See Mary shes so confused She's so misused, so abused Tell you the truth It went on for too many years She shed too many tears Too many nightmares Mary felt like no one out there cared No one out there would hear I mean her pops was a cop So can you tell me, how's it supposed to stop? Can't you see the irony Plus the fact that Mary was so pretty Physically but mentally she was broken Emotionally she was open like.. (Chorus) Oh Mary watch what you're doing You don't want to make no sudden movements Truth is, life's to precious Mary hold on I know you want to give up But Mary stay strong come on X 2 She was the envy of a lot of girls in school So Mary liked to walk and talk and act like she was cool A simple compensation For the way that she was feeling Mary thought too many times 'bout leaving This place, not school talking the face of the earth I mean she thought she was cursed since birth And the worst is She once tried religion and once tried psychology Either way she couldn't really ever Shake that feeling, see You can't imaging or vision Aborting your sibling I know you thinking Hey this kinda disgusting man Mary's mother she didn't do nothing man That's just it that You need to understand Mary's mother she just didn't know worked all night and went straight to sleep when shes home left Mary alone with the man she loved and she trusts man she never knew what was up got'dam! CHORUS Oh Mary watch what you're doing You don't want to make no sudden movements Truth is, life's to precious Mary hold on I know you want to give up But Mary stay strong come on! X 2 Let me tell you quickly how the story is done Mary turned into jenny when she found his hidden gun 'every cop has one Its somewhere in their closet Mary told herself she wouldn't stop until she found it And when she found it she held it In her hand, told herself "this is it" And then Mary ran Cross the cold kitchen floor to her room Cause she knew he was coming home soon Ready to end it gun to her head Tired of pretending About to pull the trigger 'till the noise in the kitchen had her trippin so she dropped Like she was sleeping And at the same time he started creeping She laid there and listened as the door opened cracks creeked That's when he came in and he gave his speech Like "Mary if you tell then you're being a bad girl" Mary just laid With her hand on the handle He took a step closer Leaned over, put his hand on her shoulder Mary turned over, took the gun out the holster And said "If u touch me again I swear that you dead" Mary wasn't playing put it straight to his head and then.. *(Chorus) Oh Mary watch what you're doing You don't want to make no sudden movements Truth is He was trained for theses types of situations Knocked the gun right out her hand With no type of hesitation shit! Gun hits the floor, tussle for a minute Gun slides to the door He screams out "you whore this 'gon be a lot worst than before" From the bed they go straight to the floor And with his Breaths full of alcohol Hands on her wrists he whispers in her ears Tells her "Mary you'gon like this" Then (click! Gun Shot!) the room sits emotionless Mary's eyes closed both hands still on her wrist and once they opened, with tears in her eyes she seen her father there just slumped to the side to her surprise she stares at the doorway and lucky for her her mother finished work early (Chorus) Oh Mary watch what you're doing You don't want to make no sudden movements Truth is, life's to precious Mary hold on I know you want to give up But Mary stay strong come on X 2 Category Music License Standard YouTube License

Definition 03:44
The definition of Khalyil A great friend My definitions A great man See I can withstand Damn near anything Been in too many things Shot at, at close range Moms is a preacher Pops sold them thangs Fucked around start smoking thangs That was so damaging Too My young brain yeah my young frame I wasn't eating Seen moma reaching With no finances Took a chance moved us to the sticks Couldn't afford it A few years later we got evicted I lied and told my friends I couldn't kick it had to move I figured ain't no money But I had my pride to lose And then we moved right To the west side The sh*t my moms feared most happened in front her eyes Thats B and E's robberies every time there's beef I'm front-line Shout outs to my Brotha C But now I'm different Now I'm that voice that speaks That voice that teach That voice that reach out To my community contact Front page all black all that for the youth I'm out the booth like superman Kal-El, Khalyil with the fuel of Khalid in me Martins philosophies Malcolm X Of Montreal any means I will ball Not cause I want to I'm suppose to Common y'all Keep hearing I get better and better got me thinking to myself like I better If not then stop... Or flop like dem hoop dreams Things ain't what seam Like ripped jeans When it comes to this industry N*gga Can't you see, am Turning super saiyan Feel it in your soul Something like a seance You should just remain calm I'm a sniper on the roof Waiting to take my shot I think it's time that I shoot Cause I'm running out of patience Like Mj's doctor Man ill hit you from a distance You can ask who shot ya See that flow Big poppa And im tryna do it big I do it for my city man my mutha fcking kids Yeah The ones that ain't born yet Swear to god I promise Pharoah, Jen, Jeena, Marcus Tru kings we gotta make it They can't defined me They can't deny me I got them kinda bars that'll make the blind see And that's real naw nigga that's Khalyil I got more will than uncle Phil and that's the deal said that real naw nigga that's Khalyil i got more will then uncle Phil and that's real and that's real...

about

I've named this ep Khalyil cause its an introduction to who i am, and there's no better way to introduce yourself then with your name! lol...every song has a different feel and even a different genres and that's just a reflection of who i am as a person i don't believe there's ONE way to live I like different kinds of music so i decided to express that with this project
This ep was a long time in the making and couldn't have been what it is without the help of my uncle Marlon Long.

hope you enjoy listening to it!
