      Maybe from his own personal aspirations of being in the spotlight but I guarantee he is still writing songs for big names. Although I don’t know for a solid fact, he did write a bunch of Mac Millers songs and a few others, I can’t imagine he’s not doing the same now for other artists. Dudes an underground legend.

    1996
    It was raining, drops were cutting through the mist
    I'm in the kitchen like a good kid
    Hot chocolate
    Draw booklets for profit
    Grandad had some quarters for my project
    Ever since I had an artist audience I swear'd to god that I would body shit
    Life is too short for modesty
    I was tellin myself upon that balcony
    My legs went through the bars steady swinging til the splinters came
    Im aiming for the top
    Whenever im dropping mom even the mockups are hot
    This shit is better than friendship
    They never understand when i begin shit
    I walk the lower field until the bell hits the wind
    Its clicking like these groups of little kids when they get it in
    But i don't need to play pretend when i play to win
    Word to Benjamins
    Word to everything, these words are everything
    Or maybe words are just my only thing
    [Verse 2]
    2006
    Dilla died and I was living off his gift
    I just heard Donuts at the Borders on the corner in La Habra I was over all these people tryna tell me my aspirations were goners
    I wrote my poem so I could stay in my zone
    Thinking, why go to church if I feel God in my home?
    Maybe, I write because i feel the art in my bones
    When I exorcise this demon I'm not thinking of those
    It's 2010
    I got some shows and I'm finally making friends
    Im on the cusp of something big and i can feel it
    Everything has been building up to this moment i can steal it
    Im just a aphid in the crib speaking major
    Lip service paid for
    Showed the whole city what this Wayniac is great for
    Word to the Kev machine
    Word to everything, these words are everything
    Or maybe words are just my only thing
    2016
    I spent the last 2 years fucking up big dreams
    You never know what you want until you get it
    The future ain't set sometimes its the little things winning over these checks
    I had the chance to sell out and I told them bout how words are everything
    Much bigger than gold clouds
    If I'm a shell of a man my words are empty
    Ringing through the halls of my bones for near a century
    Don't lecture me
    I see that selling soul get better things
    And maybe its just fear thats keeping me from better scenes
    But im here, one piece
    An uncle and a beast
    When they hit play they know that Imma feast so rest in peace
    [Verse 4]
    Married to the game but its complicated
    I know just how it works if I was smart I'd get hella cake
    Like if I throw a hook up on this beat it'd get hella plays
    If I just said yes to all these fools I'd get hella paid
    If only I could keep my mouth shut, no enemies
    But I don't see the point in knowing truth and not set it free
    I can't both express myself then play the game
    If you just can't handle what I say then don't say my name
    Keep it out your mouth like a foot
    Rappers babble like a young adult book
    Look, my trifocal looks could kill some dumb occult crooks
    Burn a skull, cook
    If I come out retirement I got em all shook
    Let me shake em then
    Paperless, stirring up emotions with my paper pen
    If you getting this for free what you pay for then?
    Word to friends and them
    Word to everything
    But when I die, I know my words will be my only thing

    Appearances deceive, and much. I entered the video thinking that, because of its appearance, it would be a rock cover. I love Hip Hop, and I love that there are artists who represent it as well as Jonwayne. It has left me speechless, a clear example that appearances deceive. Once again, it is shown that good Hip Hop is represented and backed by a good message and a good handwriting, without having to follow the Hip Hop fashion canons. I repeat, a lot of respect to artists like him.

    Drawing booklets for profit
    Grandad had some quarters for my project
    Ever since I had an honest audience I swore to God that I would body shit
    Life is too short for modesty
    I was telling myself, upon that balcony
    My legs went through the bars steady swinging 'til the splinters came
    Im aiming for the top
    Whenever I'm dropping, mom even the mockups are hot
    This shit is better than friendship;
    They never understand when I begin shit
    I walk the lower field until the bell hits the wind
    It's clicking like these groups of little kids when they get it in
    But I don't need to play pretend when I play to win
    Word to Benjamins
    Word to everything, these words are everything
    Or maybe words are just my only thing
    (Alright, that was it)
    [Instrumental Break]
    [Verse 2]
    2006-
    Dilla died and I was living off his gift
    I just heard Donuts at the Borders on the corner in La Habra I was over all these people tryna tell me my aspirations were goners
    I wrote my poems so I could stay in my zone
    Thinking: Why go to church if I feel God in my home?
    Maybe, I write because I'm feeling odd in my bones
    And when I exorcise this demon I'm not thinking of those
    It's 2010-
    I got some shows and I'm finally making friends
    I'm on the cusp of something big and I can feel it
    Everything has been building up to this moment-I can steal it
    I'm just a aphid in the crib speaking major
    Lip service paid for
    Showed the whole city what this Wayniac is great for
    Word to the Kev machine
    Word to everything, these words are everything
    Or maybe words are just my only thing.
    Verse 3]
    2016-
    I spent the last 2 years fucking up big dreams
    You never know what you want until you get it
    The future ain't set sometimes it's the little things winning over these checks
    I had the chance to sell out and I told them 'bout
    How words are everything, much bigger than gold clouds
    If I'm a shell of a man my words are empty
    Ringing through the halls of my bones for near a century
    Don't lecture me
    I see that selling soul get better things
    And maybe its just fear that's keeping me from better scenes
    But I'm here, one piece
    An uncle and a beast
    When they hit play they know that 'imma feast so rest in peace
    [Verse 4]
    Married to the game, but it's complicated
    I know just how it works; if I was smart I'd get hella cake
    Like if I throw a hook upon this beat it'd get hella plays
    If I just said yes to all these fools I'd get hella paid
    If only I could keep my mouth shut, no enemies
    But I don't see the point in knowing truth and not set it free
    I can't both express myself, then play the game
    If you just can't handle what I say, then don't say my name
    Keep it out your mouth like a foot
    Rappers babble like a young adult book
    Look, my trifocal looks could kill some dumb occult crooks
    Burn a skull, cook
    If I come out retirement, I got em all shook
    Let me shake em then
    Paperless, stirring up emotions with my paper pen
    If you getting this for free, what you pay for then?
    Word to friends and them
    Word to everything
    But when I die, I know my words will be my only thing

    1996
    It was raining, drops were cutting through the mist
