Five Steez & Son Raw – Soul in the Music

A mission statement, Soul in the Music sees Five Steez examine his evolving relationship with rhyming as an artform and its place in his life. Peppered with allusions to healthy living and the growth a man experiences in due time, the track exudes a reflective mood over a classic, distorted Son Raw soul loop, building on the duo’s chemistry established on The Council of the God’s Trinity and the duo’s Re:DEFined album. lyrics Yeah, check Yow, listen Yo Verse 1: Watch me get everything I want, just write it down If I don’t know now, I’ma find out how Set the goals, make the plan Get my soul right, I pray I can Seen so many pass, I’m happy that still I’m breathing Putting out my best against these inner demons Beefing with myself, I shoulda been a vegan Alone in this cold world like it’s winter season But I’m finding my way, put these rhymes on a page Lines that I say about the signs of the days If I said it, I meant it, always authentic Words pack a punch, leave your jaw dented Writing my truth is my destiny More than desire, it’s necessity My whole life, I’ve done it obsessively Worst comes to worst, it’s the best of me Hook (x2) I put my soul in this music Make sure my story told in this music I believe that’s my role in this music Be yourself and be bold in this music Verse 2: I don’t talk to anybody like I talk to these beats It’s always been my therapy, my thoughts get unleashed Found my calling when I heard applause for the speech Might fall off my path and get lost with the sheep So, I reconnect with the craft and train with these words Run miles in the morning then I’m blazing the herbs And even that, I’m trying to cut back on it And focus on the things for which I’m passionate Like getting back in the groove to rap in the booth I’ve never been the type to have an excuse I have less time and more challenges That’s what I’m balancing this rapping with And to be honest, I think my dream changed Music isn’t my career, it’s how I keep sane No big money, but I have street fame Cause people know me for spitting heat flames Hook (x2) I put my soul in this music Make sure my story told in this music I believe that’s my role in this music Be yourself and be bold in this music credits released May 2, 2025 Produced by Son Raw Mixed by Five Steez Mastered by Son Raw
