Back at it with the sixth track off my upcoming album "Arrival."
Song talks about finding balance after personal turmoil and recovering from addiction.

lyrics

Leslie Baker - Steady Cruising

One time to get my mind right - mind right
I ain’t really sleeping I’m up all night - all night
Wrestling my demons, no they won’t smite - me cuz
Ain’t nobody like me, I shine bright like a lightbeam
[2x]

Must have been about a week ago
I saw the light and finally realized where we could go if I
don’t go over the border, need some water, ain’t no boredom when disorder takes over but it's important to be sober, oh
But you know how it is
How it can get
Everything is lit
A couple of minutes, man it can turn to shit

I don’t know
Why
Bro
I just know
I try to let it go

Cuz you get caught up in the issues and
Misuse what gives you a tickle
& you get screwed
Most I know they like a trial version, they go hard for ‘bout a month and then deny working, and it’s a poison for the mind it can.. keep me inside, but I been tryna be a mile-pusher
I been tryna grow out all my features till I reach this
New state of being
Where I feel I’m finally free
Now I’m tryna leave ‘em speechless

One time to get my mind right - mind right
I ain’t really sleeping I’m up all night - all night
Wrestling my demons, no they won’t smite - me cuz
Ain’t nobody like me, I shine bright like a lightbeam
[2x]

It’s the curse of LB
Verses filled with steeze
Off the words that I speak
No mercy for the weak

I don’t know yo it’s all with the flow
What I gotta do yo where I gotta go
Who I gotta be well Imma see and let ‘em know.
See these CD’s, that’s me, incredible
My shit is slicker than a centerfold’s centerfold
You’ll need some styrofoam for the next episode

I don’t know where I’m going
But I keep flowing
Gotta let ‘em know

Let ‘em know
Got the eyes so
I can see my goals
Slipping on the ice
In the nightfall
My God
Need to relapse
Take credit for my raps
Fall back into the life that I want to get back so
I’m so done being bashful
Nothing but a blemish on my raps I’m a natural
Cuz I rip shit like an animal
Had you all thinking there’s a motherfucking manual
Most go for the fastforward
I been backtracking now reloading up my ammo
Switching it up, make ‘em stick it up kablamo, y’all some cartoons I draw quicker than my shadows

I’m on that shit that they can’t fuck with
Wicked when I bust it y’all just be flustered
I’m just getting loose on that nastiness
Reaching cruising altitudes now I’m best there is
- Sold

One time to get my mind right - mind right
I ain’t really sleeping I’m up all night - all night
Wrestling my demons, no they won’t smite - me cuz
Ain’t nobody like me, I shine bright like a lightbeam
[2x]
