The type of dude who make you something nice in the soupee (*)
I think this is sous-vide, the cooking style Thes likes and sometimes posts about.

Thes One
Seasons change and kids grow
I think we came through your town a few years ago
It's me and Mikey still rolling in the rental
Groundhog Day I try not to get sentimental
I'm looking out the window of the motel
For twenty years, tripping, seeing how all these shows sell out
But we never did and never could that's no doubt dig it
Did if for the P Army, army constantly committed
And the industry hated it, consistently faded it
We pushed through the future blind, was never afraid of it
The mind over matter what matters over this art
We, reach out forever through hip-hop with too much heart
To chart on a billboard, to care about record sales
Put food on my table, I'm happy, plus I got lots of tales
And stories for fricking days and fans I call family
Now we're twelve albums deep to document the humanity
With that...Chorus
Reach out...forever
Let's reach out...together
Let's reach out...forever
Let's reach out...together
Let'sDouble K
Finally, I'm right in the beat again
Chilling, killing the groove not living the life of sin
Bring the beats again you see that chin up
On the big island, my mind erupts
I reach out, my vocals they preach out
Pull the sheets out and stuff in the green
The homies under the stairs we all look mean
The cold brew killer, KK the bigger figure
West Coast forever, we stay together
We Heavy as D, you're light as a feather
The P is forever, vocals sharp they cut through eternity
Charlie Wilson, you burning rubber on me?
Best question in hip-hop, yo whatever G
I'm, I'm about to put away the better me
Reaching ghettos of your mind, finally we reach
And move the crowd steadilyChorus
Reach out...forever
Let's reach out...together (forever, ever)
Let's reach out...forever
Let's reach out...together (forever, ever)
Let's reach out...forever (forever)
Let's reach out...together (forever)
Let's reach out...forever (forever, ever)
Let's reach out...together (forever)
Let's...Let's...Let's...Let's...Let's...Let's...Let's...Let's (forever, ever)
Let's...Let's...Let's...Let's (forever) Let's...Let's...Let's...Let's (forever, ever)
Let's...(forever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever) -

Intro Chorus
It's the sound of the memory of
The sound of the memory of many living people
It's the sound of the memory of
The sound of the memory of many living people
It's the sound of the memory of
The sound of the memory of many living people
It's the sound of the memory of
The sound of the memory of many living people
It's the sou...Double K
Looking the crates, we see what we made
All around the world, The P got played
Good and bad, Chris and Mike
We bumping while you and your lady having a fight
That's right, it happens but the brothers keep rapping
Losing all the legends, man, it keeps happening
I miss the homie Rick, I miss my Uncle Lewis
He used to get the LA Times, who he knew us
I do this for the people who got no voice
I do this for the people who got no choice
Sung up my mojo, I'm slo-mo
I'm Friday night, raw on the thirteenth
They say the cousin of death is sleep
That's why me and the homie keep beats in the street
Dreams not memes ya'll, keep following
Stay out your feelings, people no wallowingChorus
It's the sound of the memory of
The sound of the memory of many living people
It's the sound of the memory of
The sound of the memory of many living people
(Yeah) It's the sou...Thes One
After we lost Pat it was hard to imagine moving on
To the studio trying to make a new song
Knowing he'd never hear it
Saying he's here in spirit
Didn't help at all and neither did that alcohol
Had to cover up grief
Had to learn to accept
Celebrate the good times that was The Next Step
Because you got to believe even though people are gone
That they loved you and wanted you to continue on
I carry these memories and let them stack until my last day
When my physical's reduced to something stuck in an ashtray
So let it burn, empty out the urn let me float away
The memories of better days and carry your soul away...huh
I pour out a little bit of beer
Tell your peoples that you love them while they are still here
Show your people that you love them while they are still here
(Thes One & Double K) Man, tell your people that you love while they still can hear...The Sound
Of the memory, sound of the memory
Sound of the memory, sound of the memory
Of many living people in the place to beChorus
It's the sound of the memory of
The sound of the memory of many living peopleDouble K

Man homie where you from?
The place where you can't hang
Right[dang] through the plains incorporating that thingI think it's "88 Girls" (the original title of the track according to Thes' IG post)
And I think it's "riding through the plains" ?Also towards the end of the track there's a vocal sample that sounds like 'its all gravyyy'
Is that just me?

Sample:
You know that I love you ‘cause I pray your dreams come true,
You can bet your money boy, life is not a game.
You know that I love you ‘cause I pray your dreams come true,
In case they don’t, I’ll still look after you.Thes One:
Dear Son, I wrote this the day you turned 10,
A decade on earth since your birth, my best friend,
And as boys we come (?) and in the start of your life plan (?),
A couple notes for you as you grow into a gentleman.
Chase your wildest dreams, devote yourself to a bigger truth,
Work hard, stay patient, stay cool but not aloof,
Be kind to everyone, you never know what they’re going through,
Hold the door and greet people even if they’re ignoring you.
Cos we can make small change as we work towards a bigger one,
So volunteer your time, vote, stand up and never run.
Defend those who need help. Respect and communicate,
celebrate diversity and raise your arms up against hate.
Don’t tolerate half-assed, let your passion propel you,
It’s ok to make mistakes but listen when people tell you
Apologize, try to make amends and then move on,
Surround yourself with friends who always inspire above and beyond.
And if they’re on one, then you walk away.
Let them know and if they don’t respect it, that’s ok.
Your honour’s forever and heroism is day-to-day,
In everything you’re doing in the million of littlest ways.
The biggest man is the humblest man
Find happiness in little things in life when you can.
Formulate a plan and then make it your best yet,
I’ll always be proud of you - I hope you never forget that I love you.Sample:
You know that I love you ‘cause I pray your dreams come true,
You can bet your money boy, life is not a game.
You know that I love you ‘cause I pray your dreams come true,
In case they don’t, I’ll still look after you.Thes One:
And as for me I hope history will be kind,
I know I missed a lot of moments as I stayed on my grind,
But I want you to know that even though I received a little fame,
I’d give it up to go back and never miss a soccer game,
The school plays, recitals, no idle hands in our household,
But mommy picked up the sack and for that I’m so thankful,
You see a woman can do anything that a man can do,
Some cases even better, just remember that as you pursue,
Love and lust - no always means no.
If she’s had too many, anything she says means no.
And on that note I know we rapped about the drink and the smoke
But everything in moderation, addiction is not a joke.
And you got uncles who drowned at the bottom of a bottle,
Confront your problems head-on with a zest for tomorrow,
Buy a suit, buy some tools, or how to use both,
Measure twice, cut once, and never lose sight of hope, because…Sample:
You said dreams are funny, funny, and life is just the same,
You can bet your money boy, life is not a game.
You know that I love you ‘cause I pray your dreams come true,
In case they don’t, I’ll still look after you.Outro:

Sai: I love you too
Thes: I hope you keep playing music forever ok?
Sai: Ok! Thanks -

The Red Onion Wrap
Thes One:
Off and on like a Southwest flight,
Totally rodeo, 30 rack of the Bud Light
I’m Ben Franklin holding the kite
I’m major key electricity in the night,
And yo f*** with me!
Underground with the flavor from the depths of hell
MC Hammer landed on top of the Taco Bell
Like Houdini in leather shorts, playing summertime sports,
My word is gold bond and every song distorts
Cause I’m maxed out, I keep the volume up at eleven,
God called and told he wanted me back in heaven
But it wasn’t my time, only my rhyme he wanted to bite,
Most people slept on it like a red-eyed flight
The fans are real ones, they wait around for a new song
Haters spin around, I turn them on like a Lutron,
Hittin switches in a 6 4, Tame Impala,
Bumpin the press heritage (?) house cos im a baller.
Six grams of space jam in my waist band,
So grown man, got em smokin the Kirkland,
Now we relax and kick back in our Crocs,
I’m sitting out on my porch while girls sit on my jock.
I’m like a young LL in a double-lapel suit,
My Dapper Dan at Def Jam smoking some zoot
That’s the feeling I get, when I get on the mic,
Then I look to my left and I see my man Mike,
And then I look to my right and I see all of y’all,
I surf my sh!t on the net like I’m bad at the volleyball,
They say...Double K: Hey captain, man what’s cracking what’s good?
Thes One: Man, nothing much steady f***ing with the Mike and the Chris. I said...
Chorus:
On and on and on and on. The P don’t stop til the break of dawn. We did it for the kids, had to do it all night man. Yes I did, I did it for them kids.
It goes on and on and on and on. The P don’t stop til the break of dawn. Stepfather gonna pay for the lights tonight, I said yes I did, I did it for them kids.
On and on and on and on. The P don’t stop til the break of dawn. Stepfather gonna pay for the lights tonight, I said yes I did, I did it for them kids.Sample (DJ Double K from Beat Street):
It’s working, it’s working. Party people if you’re ready to rock let me hear you screeeeam.
If you really really came to party, then let me hear everybody say we came to party. “We came to party”Double K:
Free the bass, all over the place,
808, jheri curls and crates,
Smoking at the top of the record hop,
Five dollar sticks, my nigga it don’t stop.
Steve at the rhodium (?), rhyme at the podium,
Point out your homies who think that they colder than
The joint roller, whisky holder - start popping that weak my man I’ll fold ya.
I got a dog, ‘Doggie Caldwell’, he calls me *huh* chilly and idle,
We beef with the fido, what up dogs, wanna get put down in the LA pound?
We rescued the funk and get rough
Look to the right, they cooler tonight,
Look to the left, the P get def,
I’m looking to the left and the P get defChorus:
It goes on and on and on and on. The P don’t stop til the break of dawn. Stepfather gonna pay for the lights tonight, I said yes I did, I did it for them kids. [x4]Double K:
Look at them kids over there. You got lights right? You got food right?
And The P don’t stop, to the break of dawn. We do it for them kids, yes we did, we did it for them kids. -

sample: i dreamed that i was hard
hard as heLL Scratch Break
Thes One Verse
yo hard …..hard as i ever been, rumble for the reverent title sever will waddle* milestones have been past,
a couple a stones cast, they toss em from glass house, they get thousand gaffs and i laugh, can’t find a
match the lighter’s on the dresser, thes and the desiccated, we hated, the P’s fresher, a new delivery
decorated in chivalry, a vision from the future where rap is not a industry, cause we promote unity yeah
sucker that’s you and me, together 1+1 is 11 steady pursuing me and mike as we locked arms, 16th letter
unbreakable I’m sitting so deep they thought my weight was unmake able, but watch how I paddle and
battle in even in all night, upwardly mobile immigrant like Madeline Albright, yup, I’ll be a role model,
it seems like there’s none left, teaching you to rip a microphone and straight get def, and invest in themselves
stop worry about clout, them oldman problems I can solve them with out a doubt, and disappear like I’m
outta here, disappear like we outta here, on my way to my next spot, had to stop by the stratosphere,
I’m hard like gravity, situated in savagery, I elevate and celebrate the life so emphatically, with poetry
radically written across my pages, but stay away from Thes One cause I could be contagious, so stay
away from Double K …he could be contagious, so stay from the P (P)….we could be contagious, so stay
away from LA man cause we all contagious… so stay a-Chorus
If you’re contagious stayawayfromme REPEAT
if you’re contagious-Double Verse
I’m Big Mike - I’m Big M-I-K-E ! Smoking the dope yo, the P is still free. I rock for a fee, I used to ski,
down a slope though (oh sh!t) imagine a oh no, lending fools wisdom, I yoke up the jam, body slam,
HARDDD!! Like a 4x4, living for the hell of it, making crews irrelevant, fellin’ sh!t, kidnap your engineer,
hide your manager, sock up your crew and we got it on camera, viral Michael, known to get psycho,
a hundred Proof, tearing off the roof, get busy with a black shirt putting’ in work I can do the Wop,
I can do the Jerk, I’m a Soul Cal baby, my thinkin’ is crazy, I’m HARD, my third eye ain’t lazy, ate some
mushrooms, now I’m spacey, have sex with my lady, water the yard, program the drums, and come off HARDDD!!Double Chorus
Hippy and record diggin’, head of the household, we still the Stepfathers,
we got the vinyl, you on that bullshizzle,
why even bother, we Got Off Stage, the people still holler
*Repeat with Thes staggered same*
*HARD*
Chorus
If you’re contagious stayawayfromme REPEAT
if you’re contagious-
