Hi There 03:36
Verse: ONE Hello have you heard my resume The legacy great the music it don’t fade away Timelessness the timeless hits That’ll make a youngin wanna get up and grind and shit Don’t sleep, pick a beat and speak rhymes to it Got me reminiscing about all the time I spent Tryna live when I living to get by All I know is that I’m gone get it before I die Rest in peace to all my people living in the sky And I’ll be getting high until we seeing eye to eye Lord I help you hear me when I be praying And I hope y’all hear the words that I’m saying Laying my soul in all of these lines and these rhymes Just a few thoughts flowing from my mind and at the time On the grind, tryna design a spaceship Music so loud they can’t even face it One day soon considered the greatest Written in stone no you can’t erase it I’m sick and I’m I’ll but that’s just my opinion tell me how you feel Yo I been on the journey tryna climb the hill Tryna take care of the fam and stack a couple mill I’m tryna bring the whole dream to life that’s what its seeming like So if you see me on the street then I’ll probably be like Chorus: Hello and Hi There I encourage you to go and get your lighter, If you a flyer baby I can be your pilot And if you want fire I can sholl supply that Verse: TWO Hello when it comes to this shit now I’m known to get down like when you hearing clip rounds Or in the club with the hit sounds That make you wanna hit the dance flo’ That’s how hard my band go And that’s ironic we ain't even in our Pr1me Polishing the edges man one day we gone shine Maxing out on patience seeming like it’s our time Gladiator with this thing King I handle mines No scandal, take ya to channel my vib If you can handle the ride then let’s go Middle finger to everybody that said no Doubted and hated before they ever played it We ain’t playing with these niggas no mo Man I got the fire and the shit burn slow Making bread from scratch yeah nigga that’s dough If you see me on the street or see me at the show I’ll go (Chorus) Live Performance Intro: Hello, My name is Magix King. I entertain and empower through the sounds of music. They Sleep, We Grind (x4) Verse: THREE Feels like I been taking my time Being patient got creations been just waiting in line The way I’m speaking got them thinking that I’m out of my mind But I swear I really mean it man we gone shine Predict the design and watch how the stars align A place of freedom for my people to relax and unwind So if you see me on the street then I’ll probably be like (Chorus)

Verse: ONE I was just a young Triste pimping, money was the mission dollars always in my vision, yeah Butnaw this ain’t the movie this is real life what you feel like when youstart and always finish, yeah Lord be my witness I been all about my business Since my father fell in love and gave my mother morning sickness I’m the sickest and the illest nigga out And I got the workout session for any nigga that doubt Chorus: Who they waiting for, me? Young king that these niggas wanna be, All these superstitions make me wonder what they see In being famous yo my aim is to make sure my people free, Frsh Verse: TWO Waters how im running since a youngin I been knowing as a youngin Iaint really know shit But now the cub is grown he out there hunting on his own Aye watch him once he in the zone that boy prone to getting rich Money power respect yo, tell them cut the check bro We gone make sure they the reasons why my niggas neck froze They been looking for the key and I been writing clef notes 9-5 and rhyming and I still got work to let go, tell me (Chorus) Frsh Waters: It’s nothing that you can’t achieve in this world, anything is possible, always remember that. Never doubt yourself because, nothing comes to a dreamer but sleep. And if you don’t go out there and go work for what you want, grind for what you want day in and day out, it ain’t never gone come to you. It’s all how you perceive the world. Some people look at the world and they see nothing but a box, and some people they look outside the box, and then some people don’t see a box at all. Cause they ain’t gone box they self they in and they ain’t gone try to surround they self around no type of limitations. So at the end of the day it’s all about what you reaching for, and when you reaching for it, you got to make sure you grab it and hold on to it. Don’t hold all that past resentment and just criticize yourself of what could have been. Always look to the future but live in the present. Don’t never be afraid of what could be in the future and don’t be resenting yourself of what you did in the past. And always embrace where you at right now. (Chorus)

Chorus: Im riding through the city, young kings rolling with me We just leaning feeling tipsy stacking money smoking sticky Finna be one hell of a sick summer (ayye) One hell of a sick summer Finna be one hell of a sick summer (ayye) One hell of a sick summer My circle getting smaller, stress free we be unbothered Man my time is way too short and im too focused on these dollars Finna be one hell of a sick summer (ayye) One hell of a sick summer Finna be one hell of a sick summer (ayye) One hell of a sick summer Verse: ONE Ok my calendar is packed I’m going back overseas Class is letting out my niggas strapped with degrees Congratulations on the graduation from a mentality A forced upon reality for niggas in the streets To many youngins lay decease it’s time to change Educate then medicate to elevate ya brain Meditate on the time and how far a nigga came from Kingdoms, wasn’t in my vision now a YK can claim one The empire in the making and haters is calculating How to take it and break it but they really to fascinated Infatuated cause I activated the facts in every rap Got them reminiscing and thinking back Like why is everybody kicking me my history Ain’t nothing like a mystery you hear it in my tracks I give you me, dreaming how the story should be But spitting how it goes, I guess that’s more important to me (Chorus) Verse: TWO And I still don’t know what happens to a dream deferred Ignorance is bliss I guess that that’s confirmed Cooling with a couple Langston Hughes Who refuse to lose, we write and try to break the rules Influences break throughs cause niggas will make news But only when they shoot, if I can get you to stay tuned I know I can make room inside the penitentiary Where they been tryna lock us up for centuries See a Buick century Whoop, whoop There go the boys and he see that I got locs And I know I made him mad man I really wasn’t shocked Cause he asked me where I was going and i told him to the top And this is just a journey that you really cannot stop Nor prevent, the lord spent too much time for me to live dormant Rather die enormous in the hearts of my squad I cherish every ride when I ride, Im (Chorus)

Intro: I don’t know where you been all my life, but I been searching for you. I been searching for you. Verse: ONE idk how this idea came about but they saying that the only way to really make it out Is to change where you live and that’s something that i doubt Different city same struggle man i seen it before Until i picked up the pen and started spitting a flow I learned of power bread and started rolling the dough Now I’m rocking the stages headlining the shows You can’t never overload em if they asking for mo And now I’m going on tour what more could i ask for Squad deep bunch of royal niggas that’s behind me Peace love unity is definitely where I’ll be Summertime Chi I’m hydroplaning tryna change and Be the change i complain we don’t sustain I’m just tryna find my way I came to play and give my all For my mother and my father who deserve to ball Chorus: I know that if I had wings, that I would take off and fly, With no destination, I’d be somewhere in the sky I know that if I had wings, that I would take off and fly, With no destination, I’d be somewhere in the sky, flying high I don’t know where you been all of my life but I been searching for you. Yeah, I been searching for you. (x2) Verse: TWO Skrrt, SKrrt, hold up watch a nigga wheels, Nigga make a living off of writing how I feel Hit an open mic and do it right to keep the skill sharp Still spark a fire while the empire I build Brick for brick I’m laying daily trying to be the mayor My pops wanted a solider so he made a bear My mama deserve the game so she made the player Then made prayer Lord let the city be aware And if they not then Lord forgive them, All they gotta do is listen To the shit that I been spitting I ain’t doing this for nothing My god gave me the mission, Establish your own position Everything that you have written Bout to have the city bumping I’m writing thinking of verses tryna show you the purpose Of finding freedom for families unaware of what they worth is It’s too much hurting but I know that there’s a pair of wings out there upon this earth and I swear that I am searching (Chorus)

In My Zone 02:26
Chorus: Got me in my zone, sitting back plotting on the throne, Thinking I can take for my own, with the liquor in the cup A little close to stuck with the blunt in the lab while we smoking its clone Got me feeling like I’m on, with the whole world blowing up my phone Got a black queen and she got it going on I been grinding cause I know the bottom not where I belong Got the whole world singing my song Got me in my zone Verse: Now I’m feeling wise and on the rise Been taking my time while they been plotting my demise Got the fire in my eyes they hate the way I improvise And the way I’m taking off it should come at no surprise I’m sponsored by NASA, spit like I got the answers But I don’t sway I just stand tall I just wanna see my brothers free the ones without the luxury Of knowing what it’s like to have a real loving family That shit could cause insanity I guess it’s just the man in me I’ve always had the plan to be the one to provide Swear I been fighting to enlighten that the struggles alive I just wanna tell my mama that her blessings arrived And that I’m so sorry for the timing but now we owning islands And places to run away when you feeling like reclining Or need reminding that the sun is always shining Ya baby boy achieving everything he put his mind in (Chorus)

Verse: ONE – D2G Yo....thanks for your hand in part in spreading my art to fans all across the way/ Singing all my lines, repeating em many times, from your heart to mines, yo you make my day/ Cause i......place so many pieces of the puzzle/ To illustrate my vision of making out the struggle/ And for that I.....make sure...that I make pure/ So the temporary gains of your pains get cured...../ The fact that your ears been in tuned/ Assures me greatness will come soon/ And I never let you down, word to everything I have or that makes me/ Won't forsake me or break me/ So won't you take me and think of the good times/ From all of this good rhymes/ I write to you....../ And if not for me, then just go proceed with the needs that you wanna have a good time too Chorus: Farewell, so long Thank you, for all the things that you have done for me And now my family can eat! Verse: TWO - MAGIX And now feasting like we atta order, everything until they out of orders Free my brother waters the hustle his Alma matta These verses he known to slaughter I be thinking all the time this life he should be a part of But not having power to change that remains fact So I slang raps until I can bring stacks to judge And bring him back to the love that once was I be writing for so many reasons I’m daily fighting my demons I’m often talking to God Still turning up on weekends I always ride for my squad I’m just thankful for the life I been living It could've been different Focused on completing the mission And seeing my vision Come to life before I’m worth more dead than alive That negativity I’m cutting my tithes At this time I’m sort of kind of focused on the youth Making songs that influence and empower them to do Anything that they desire, its only matter of time And time doesn't matter just stay focused on the latter and design They sleep we grind oh The places that you’ll go I been writing I been focused on the flow I been rapping in the baseent, scrunching up niggas faces Now they face it, magix on the road to being one of the greatest And please, mirror mirror sitting on the wall If a nigga fall can my mama still ball I just want to see her living the way that she want her children to I know that I don’t show it but mama I’m really missing you A king is more than diamonds and gold But how much gold you can grow from the diamonds you behold (Chorus) Verse: THREE – DE’JAUVE Now let me get a round of applause Not for me but for all of y'all Who took the time from your lives to show me some loving Without y'all I wouldn't be nothing So this verse is to show my appreciation Even to the people that's out there hating Waiting impatiently for me to leave But I ain't going no where I feel that wouldn't be fair To all the people that supported me from the beginning Wave yo hands in the air we winning Hugs & Kisses to all of you misses That love my image and show me interest If I wasn't taken I'd give y'all the business Hey Baby you with it Naw I'm Just kidding & I gotta show love to all the fellas That recite my rhymes from the Chi to Coachella Arguing with they homies that they never heard realer Ha, y’all the truest One reason I do this So I congratulate you for this breakthrough Your energy's like a hero that has come to my rescue & allowed me to do what they said that I can't do From the bottom to the top of my heart I Thank You So Thank You (Chorus)

about

By Craig Bechtel

Magix (he says the ‘x’ is pronounced like a ‘c’ both to protect his brand and it makes him easier to find on the Internet) has already released the first single. “Hi There” is a great entrée into his positive message, rapid-fire raps and heavily layered (but never too busy) production. Toward the end he inserts an aside that “I entertain and empower through the sounds of music,” before he raps that while “they sleep, we grind.”

Although Magix King is still young, he wrote his first rhyme at the age of nine, so he’s been doing hip-hop for what amounts to many years, with his first official release as a solo artist being “Dream Catcher” in 2012, followed by “The Workout Session” in 2014. While he describes the former as an attempt to push the idea that he can create great songs, with way more production, instrumentation and structure within the song itself, he assesses the latter as an attempt to collect pieces that he’d been working on “that fit,” and that it was a way to let his listeners know that he is always working.

“Now that I feel like the consistency side is being seen, and I feel like the fact that I can make a song is being seen, it’s time to establish the entertainment.” He refers to the refrain of “Hi There,” and says he’s focused on providing quality and demonstrating that “we can still make hip-hop music and dance and have a good time, and have the same freedom like the summertime… Just because we’re good artists and we make good positive music, never for an instant does that mean you can’t dance to what I’ve made. So that’s what I’m really focusing on for this project: let’s reestablish that freedom and happiness and people with this good positive music, so that every summer when somebody’s ready to get out of school, in my mind I hope they’re saying that it’s gonna be one hell of a sick summer.”
