:: LYRICS ::
VERSE 1
I can paint a picture with words or just brushes
Make something out of nothing ain't nothing to make something
Cutting up samples while keeping the bass pumping
Nothing we can't handle I will have this place jumping
Your tramp on lean, I'd rather have a queen
Of course I am a king so I can have a dream
Or be your worst nightmare at war never fight fair
If our freedom is right there take it by any means
Learn PEACE from the Gods but I still study violence
I fight for my serenity if anything challenge
Write dope on a tightrope trying to find balance
Build my skill with will plus talent
Slanger of the rhymes, training young minds
Painter of the times, Maker of designs
Sailor of the skies, pilot of the seas
Baker of the pies, refiner of the dreams
HOOK
...I do it (do it)
Black of all trades, I do it (do it)
Put art on a page I do it (do it)
I do it (do it), I do it (do it)
Make something out of nothing ain't nothing to make something
If you want to do it... do it
Make something out of nothing ain't nothing to make something
If you want to do it... do it
VERSE 2
Do it until it’s done and there ain’t nothin’ left to do
Do it under the sun can tell you did it from your hue
Doin’ it in the park after dark me & you
Different type of vibe but I’mma work it ‘til we’re thru
I’m a mover and shaker,
Up at dawn, stumble strong
So my jaw stay about as smooth as sandpaper
This is for the chance takers, villains gave us lemon
Now we Lemonade makers don't let any man break ya
...We're def the most resilient yall seen bey
He don't play but highly sought after as teammate
Nothing I can't do, you should broaden your dreamscape
Food for thought you should be consuming what we bake
Teach, cook, write, love, speak good, fight, f**k
Seek, look, eyes shut, we must rise up
Often write rhymes, dark skin, bright mind
Lost winds, fly blind, fortunes I find...
HOOK
...I do it (do it)
Black of all trades, I do it (do it)
Shackle my brain can’t do it (do it)
Won’t do it (do it), can’t do it (do it),
Made something out of nothing ain't nothing to make something
If you want to do it... do it
Made something out of nothing ain't nothing to make something
If you want to do it... do it
VERSE 3
How you gonna tell me what I can’t do..
Sh*t… I probably did it first..
Ain’t nothin I can’t handle…
...Sure as hell can’t do it worse
So I’mma make it cooler. Add a little flavor
Take us to the future. Be a little greater
I ain’t scared to barter, skill more valuable than paper
Work a little harder put it down and make’em pay up
...I lay it down they tell me stay up
Then every time I turn around they talking ‘bout a pay cut
Trying to stop a baker who out here gettin his cake up
Skills surpassing his peers, wondering why I bring race up
Cuz average got us living under poverty lines
And good’s only good enough part of the time
...And great will make’em hate you from afar
In the comment section like “Who these niggers think they are?”
HOOK
Black of all trades, I do it (do it)
Carry the world’s weight I do it (do it)
I’ll be damned if I can’t I do it (do it)
I do it (do it), I do it (do it),
Make something out of nothing ain't nothing to make something
If you want to do it... do it
Make something out of nothing ain't nothing to make something
If you want to do it... do it Видеоклипы

Been listening to the brother Substantial, since 2007. It's officially been 10 years, and his lyrical dexterity, flow versatility, topic creativity, sharp delivery, vast vernacular, and multi syllabic rhyme schemes get better with time. Not only am I a proud Marylander, but I am proud to rep Prince Georges county. PG STAND UP!!!!
Peace fam. Haven't seen your name in a minute. Nice to see you still rocking with me! Salute, PG County!
Oh yes, gotta rock with you man not just because you're from PG, but because you're a true divine MC. By the way we're friends on FB, I just go by the name, Ty-Rishard Kidblaze Jones on FB. You actually commented on the status I made about Kendrick Lamar's influence from Andre 3000.
Word, I remember that! Good to know. Thanks for the continued support.
Fa sho brother, God bless you.
You're inspirational.

There was another version of this song. Does anyone know where I can find it!? It was slower. But it wasn't edited.
Here's the original version: open.spotify.com/track/2swDWrtOjJn3799uXM1SYR?si=ao2azG4nQraav5nnQTtEYw
Comment for the algorithm
I do it
🙌🏾 Ha! Thanks.
Happy I stumbled on this video. Love the vibes and the positive message. I'm a hip-hop artist/producer in Baltimore, as well. Check out the joint called "The New America" on my channel - political hip-hop, I think you'll dig it. Let's connect. Keep up the good work!
I've always been a fan, but I just came across your channel and immediately subscribed! I'm damn shocked at how underground you still are!
Anyway, I make beats, check them out if you have the time :)
