Lyrics : Aight, let's do it Think you're alright I don't think I really got it I don't think that I can get over all of my problems I've been thinking, who the fuck am I to disagree? I heard I'm pretty dope so I guess I gotta oblige Inside, I been plotting on a way that we can elevate A massacre to chop up your skin I never hesitate I put a lot of time into the craft, I make it resonate I regulate with repetition, I could be the greatest But half of me illogical, the other half elated Practice on the pages that I got in my attendant mind I minimise the ignorance so in a minute I make it relatable Evade the negativity at all costs Tryna find my way I'm feelin' so lost Finally in the zone, I gotta focus But that can be an issue, I'm addicted to the work It's all I ever wanna do, pursue the purpose that I'm bleeding for And need it more than pity man, than miniscule opinions Picking apart the immaculate, happily apathetic and actually authentic This sentence is sentimental, like the words are just a piece of my soul Lord I transcended to the artist that I wanna be I demonstrate my dominance, a derilect with dialect My etiquette is excellence, I dedicate my all to this I solemnely swear that I seranade with selections And different cadences to kill it Really givin' that in this and anyone that wants the truth Then we present to be identified, I live a meager life I'm motivated by progession 'cause a year ago Nobody paid attention to the kid And I'm persistent with the effort, document my decoration Dedicated to the death of me, definitely concerned That I prefer to be a purist, not perjuring any verses Only way to get it off of my chest, oh Lawd If it's a problem I solve it privately, polish 'em off I punish with powerful poems, compose a doper creation Case and point I'm steadily provin' this ain't a lucid dream I used to be infatuated, now it's just reality I'm managing my temperament, my time to capitalise isn't infinite The wisdom I'm attaining from trial and effort is priceless I promise I'm putting the music before my sanity Sing you a lullaby with alliteration and empathy The lack of recognition is starting to fuel my energy You know you made it when you receivin' hate from an enemy Your relevance was never an option, here's the synopsis Said I'm knockin' out whoever you considerin' the king I'll kick him off the throne, I want it, I'ma take it as my property And properly prepare to go to war with any challenger Battle in Colosseums, people check for me to finish Reminiscing of the legends that left remarkable legacies I said that I'm ahead of my time, I am You can never understand the head space I'm in I live and I'm writing about it, giving a lyrical ballad Workin' on findin' a balance, dealin' with every challenge But it's a struggle, meticulously adjustin' my train of thought to be positive Transform to a phoenix And we just tryna give you something you remember We the illest nigga, don't ever forget it, lord! And we just tryna give you something you remember We the illest nigga, don't ever forget it, lord! And we just tryna give you something you remember We the illest nigga, don't ever forget it, lord! And we just tryna give you something you remember We the illest nigga, don't ever forget it! High stakes Transform, we stand alone High stakes Transform, we stand alone
K.A.A.N you are one of a kind. An artist that has so much passion yet such little reach. You are a master at what you do and it shows so much. Crazy shit, every song..
The rarity of the chance for you to see this is tremendous. "When they shower you with compliments ignore it". But I just want you to know that as a fellow artist your music is so bittersweet to me. It drives me to hone my own craft more vigorously while simultaneously giving me chills because I feel it so deeply. But your dedication and delivery is inspiring. Thank you and much love brother. I wish nothing but the best for you. You've helped save a life a few times, and that's just counting me. 🤙
It took me years to face my triggers with your music. Years of processing emotions an I wouldn't have done if it wasn't for this man...I'd be dead..I would've never believe I had the strength if it wasn't for you...so please keep bringing it to the table
I really cannot believe that I found this song now. Im truly shocked I never heard of this artist before. Ima go listen to some of his newer songs now.
i love the creepy sound of the beat and then KAAN comes in with the flow and kills it. please make more songs like this with these type of beats while we're blessed to have you PLEASE!
Coming from someone who listens to basically anything. I have to say you are one of the best artist out here today. Please keep it up. Don't get corrupted like most artist do and you are golden
Best believe he have offers and shii but not a sell out 💯 he has his own business and making profit off what he loves to do can’t ask for much 🤷🏽♂️ after that
Here from Adrenaline Addictions best of video.... This is a jam..... I'm old.....and this is reminiscent of "my music". Dude has it.....whatever "it" is....KAAN has it.
Young Gangstars 🤦♂️ just don’t listen to the stuff you don’t like there’s still plenty of guys I’m sure people like you will like like KAAN here today.
@@connorcully7121 There are some rappers nowadays that I do enjoy but its those who have no quality or substance in their music who taints the rap game itself but yet people flock to it like sheep and artists that are lyrical like K.A.A.N and Dax Trapp Terrell ect. don't get the recognition they deserve.
A different form of story telling through metaphors and similes, the amount of effort to show talent through a different style of rap is absolutely insane. This is the song that made me a life-long listener of the greatest lyricist of all time. 10/10
I discovered K.A.A.N like 3 days before the thanksgiving of 2017, he's now my favorite Artist and it's not an opinion it's a damn fact he's at a higher level that 21, lil pump, and every one else so why the hell ain't ma dude making millions already
ive been listening to this song on repeat for the past couple months now and i still get chills every time it comes up, probably up there as my favorite rapper
This is the only song I have heard from KAAN and I already love him so much I can't explain how much I am genuinely speechless I don't think I can breath you are so good the new tupac
Heavy metal person through and through but hear kaan 5 years ago and haven't been able to stop...never heard anyone talk.. spit....like this period....amazing!!
For the life of me I do not understand how not only is K.A.A.N not one of the most popular artists in the world, but also how he isn’t already in everyone’s conversations about legendary artists. Not just music, but a true representation of how lyricism IS a form of art.
if you don't blow up to be as big as kendrick I have no more hope for the rap game... you are a legend man and a new addition to rappers who inspire me
if you do end up reading this kaan, I want you to know I relate on so many levels with you. Youve managed to articulate the feelings a couldn't describe at times and that you lit the fire in ma belly again. Thanks man!
Found him through CDTVs fastest verse series and kaan surely is one of the fastest choppers. But yesterday I started looking more into his music (outside of his chopping) and damn, he underrated af
5 years ago I was sitting at rock bottom addicted to fentanyl listening to this. I made the decision to go to rehab that day. I fell multiple times. Today I’m on day 4 of no suboxone. But today I have my own family 2 beautiful baby girls a beautiful wife. Suboxone saved my life but kaans music pushed me through it. God bless brotha
Hey, my guy, I hear yeah, been on methadone for 12 years and opiates 10 before that, I been medically being weened off and down to 27mg from over a 100mg, December it will be over, I really hope you are still up and out, happiest of days!
Most re playable song of the 21st century. Maybe that’s the real reason it’s called “Phoenix “, because just when I think I’ve listened to it to death it rises from the ashes just as good as the first time I heard it. Thank you k.a.a.n 🙏
I've been listening to your songs for a couple of years and it is truly beautiful. Please don't stop making music because it helped me through hard times.
This is what I've been searching for... I hope you find your calling and I hope this man goes down in history. It's 2021 and I rather search for songs that reach my soul than to fill my head with fake news and reality tv shows that rot your brain and not feed it like this does so well... Thank you for making this gold.
I've seen this visual so many times but this was different. Usually the artist dies and this darker form of the artist comes into the picture (representation of the artist selling their soul) but in this video the artist didn't die he actually defeated the darker form insulating that he refuses to let his soul go and make a deal with the devil for fame. Makes sense because let's be honest here, this kid was suppose to blow up a long time ago but he didn't make that deal so now it's a harder rougher rockier road to the top or to his goal.
Yo Josh I really appreciate you saying that. Nice to see someone who knows what’s going on. This man is very talented. He made the right decision to avoid what goes on with the high ups in the industry. It’s up to us to promote him. We all know that the media won’t. He deserves it more than those satanist fools anyway.
6 years later and I've lost count of how many times I've listened to this song DAILY! Hand on the bible this is the most beautiful piece of art these ears have ever heard.
Man… first started listening to you 6 years ago during the black ops 2 days. You helped me through so much when you had 17k subs. It’s amazing to see where you are rn man, god bless💙
