I'm doing 40 things
There is a cliché in West Coast RAP out of the Old School, when rapper’s 64 Impalas are kitted up on hydraulic suspensions, they Hit tha switches.
The reason why I would like to complete this is I think I would be a real ass thing to do. Me, coming from a history of freestyle rapping with a bunch of amateurs. We are all rhyming off the top of the head. The depth of the thought process of these cats comes out after they get all of their compositions out of the way. Then they start to reach for some bull shit like hitting the switchez with their bitchez. And in my mind I’m all like, “you can’t rap about something you have never done.” But I can’t pass my standards off on a another man, so I just make a mental note to myself to never rap about some experiences I haven’t lived.
Rolling a six four on switches is pimp. Man, that is the ideal image of an early 90’s West Coast G. The chapter we O.G.’z aspire to be like. If you own a Chevy on Daytons and Vogues, you hot. You already know.
How could I not rap about that? I’ll bet a dub it would be the realist rapping in the spot. And if there were bitchez involved? Well then I guess I just got back from hitting the switches with my bitches.

There occurs no description for who I want to be. I cannot put exact words to the longing in my body. Nor can I begin to explain God in words you will understand. The best goal I can set is for me just to say I want to live out there, in that manner which I see myself. Live in the custom of the culture of the location in the season with my own personal ideas to the mix. Quite specifically, I want to live out there.
