There\u2019s such a feeling of freedom coursing through every bit of this one \u2013 no apprehension to the bars whatsoever, not an ounce of tension to be found. Listening to <strong>KeepitSwain<\/strong> rap is like listening to your friend who\u2019s smarter than you unpretentiously spill some knowledge over a few drinks. Oh, and the beat is an absolute home run, featuring some of the vibiest flute I\u2019ve ever heard in my life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-style-large is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Better things to come, gotta believe\u00a0that<br>Give \u2019em food for thought and they\u2019ll give you\u00a0feedback<br>Invest beyond a weed sack<br>And, yeah, it\u2019s your journey, but it\u2019s Gods plan,\u00a0you should read that\u00a0<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThoughts on Thursday\u201d is really an amazingly pure piece of great hip-hop.
