Soulo Ho3 (feat. Jhené Aiko)

[Intro: Jhené Aiko]

This is a story about control, my control

Control of what I say, control of what I do

And this time I'm gonna do it my way

I hope you enjoy as much as I do

Are we ready? I am, because it's all about control

And I've got lots of it

[Verse 1: Ab-Soul]

Soulo ho, the one and only

You niggas know me, your bitches want me

Determination, I got a grip, 9-5 locs I am not a Crip

Blood, sweat and tears, hotel tiers

Your short term tall tales won't sell here

And Ms. Aiko told me let my soul sail here

Let me get a "hell yeah"

[Hook: (Jhené Aiko) & Ab-Soul]

(Open your eyes) You niggas know what it is

(It's about that time) Soulo on one again

(It's been a hell of a ride) You niggas know what it is

(We live one hell of a life) Say Soulo on one again

I'm still on my shit

Fuck em, fuck em, fuck em

They still on my dick

You niggas know what it is

(Open your eyes) You niggas know what it is

(It's about that time) Soulo on one again

[Verse 2]

Manipulating minds

Reciprocating time spent on my amazing rise

Said I was the underdog, turns out I'm the secret weapon

We can see you half-stepping, I should somersault

Some are salty that I made it in the way I did

Cause I really did everything I say I did

Let me tell you why I'm vexed

The same reason why I'm stressed, the same reason why I'm blessed

I stopped praying, and I started planning

I stopped playing, and I made it happen

We mapped it out, and now the map is ours

Raised my stats all from records, check an almanac

Thank god punchline knew I had a knack

Down too die to get my point across like craps

Control System, cut off your radios, cut off your television

[Hook: (Jhené Aiko) & Ab-Soul]

[Verse 3]

Truth, I'm turning their heads and I'm earning respect

Grinning cause niggas ain't know I was next, pinning this shit in the wind

Literate as Oscar Wilde, bringing the terror and tearing the concert down

The spliff will get lit up 'til we look like we come from Chinatown

Missing Alori Joh, it's been a minute since I saw her smile

She's the reason why I go as hard as I do now

Fuck a foe cause I'm focused as four bifocals

I'm prone to leave a vocal booth totaled for the right total

The bad boy, you boys pussy as totems

Or Dorthy's dog toto, I'm telling niggas

I'mma need a few wings like Frodo, I can't say YOLO

Because I've been here before, so deaf that I've been reborn, Soulo

[Outro: (Jhené Aiko) & Ab-Soul]

(Open your eyes) I know you can see me

(It's about that time) They ain't goin' believe me

(It's been a hell of a ride) Nothing was given

(We live one hell of a life) We still living
