Trips and the Peace Video (MV)

Yo, lemme tell you something
I was pushing through the streets, kidney grill on the front
With the cushioned leather seats, you see, I knew how to stunt
Or so I thought; I had it all, like what more could I want
What a façade, you see, I knew how to front
I was mappin' out the future, but I seemed to be lost
I was rackin' up the credit card debt, but at what cost
I had a knack for audio, the system slapped
But I slipped off the honor roll
I barely made it past undergrad, but I did it
No career lined up, sweatin' bullets
I was getting desperate, I admit it
I'd be cold-calling studios expressin' my desire
For employment, but this ploy became a wild goose chase
Backed on nothing but hope, and it left a sour taste in my mouth
If I may recollect on this one dude I phoned up
Man started talkin' 'bout some plan he had going on
Some kind of pipe dream, a studio, and making some moves
And he saw an opportunity for me
But his quote-unquote business had utilized
Logos the man made with WordArt
Probably back when I was learning how to speak
I throw up the trips and the, trips and the
Peace on the other, other, peace on the other, other
Trips and the peace on the other hand
That's Dub V to you, my illiterate friend
To you, my illiterate friend
Trips and the peace on the, trips and the peace on the
Trips and the peace on the, trip, trip, trip, trip
Trips and the peace on the, trips and the peace on the
Trips and the peace on the, trip, trip, trip, trip
Alumni Center, I was settin' up
Tables for events and whatnot
It was a way into WVU
Audio and video route I was looking for
I doubt I would be there long
I met a few faces with promising hopes
Adiós, I would say as I got a new job
But nah, I was stuck there, no way I'm movin' up
Time to make a move and a higher-up agreed
I was underemployed, so what do I need
I needed resolution; back to my first undergrad discipline
I was in engineering; I left that chapter of my life incomplete
And the more I thought about it, the more I couldn't sleep
See, I knew I had to go back
I knew I had to prove that I could do it
Two degrees, one alma mater, ain't nothin' to it
I throw up the trips and the, trips and the
Peace on the other, other, peace on the other, other,
Trips and the peace on the other hand
That's Dub V to you, my illiterate friend
To you, my illiterate friend
Trips and the peace on the, trips and the peace on the
Trips and the peace on the, trip, trip, trip, trip
Trips and the peace on the, trips and the peace on the
Trips and the peace on the, trip, trip, trip, trip
Intricate circuits, I learned to analyze
In electrical engineering, it should be no surprise
Versatility shines, those skills I've applied
To other similar areas and problems in my life
But to be honest, I should've finished that degree the first time
But hear me out, if I did, I wouldn't have
Learned a thing or two or three or four about
Recording or the music industry or the three major labels
I'm turning the tables, I'm able to connect
The degrees like a LEGO set, I never met
Anyone exactly like me
Background unique and now that you see
The unconventional subjects I rap about
Certainly do represent me and the university that I went to
The state I am from, I represent to no end
I throw up the trips and the peace on the other hand
That's Dub V to you, my illiterate friend
I throw up the trips and the, trips and the
Peace on the other, other, peace on the other, other
Trips and the peace on the other hand
That's Dub V to you, my illiterate friend
To you, my illiterate friend
Trips and the peace on the, trips and the peace on the
Trips and the peace on the, trip, trip, trip, trip
Trips and the peace on the, trips and the peace on the
Trips and the peace on the, trip, trip, trip, trip
