[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Y'all know me
I don't even have to introduce myself, haha
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yo, it's me, here it goes
Yeah, yo

[Verse 1]
I don't care if you ain't down with the movement
It's changed, mind's [clicked though?]
Best move it or lose it
Girls like, "OMG, did he really diss his ex now?"
No, I only told a story, everybody calm down
I spit what I feel, the page before and to the real deal
I'm known to deal real, so if I piss you off, I apologize (Nah)
But this is the way most of us should live our day-to-day lives
Give props when it's due, and when it's due, criticize
No one should ever have to bend their words or mouth to what they see with their eyes
I understand you're not fake on the inside
But the need for popularity keeps you all in that disguise
Diss yourselves and then diss the other guys
Fuck it, so I run against my own words
But that's the only way to push the situation from the mic to Billboards
The only way to move forwards
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I'm crazy aggressive with my fuckin' lingo (Damn)
Duck or cover your faces and make like Bingo
Get as close to the ground as possible, limbo
Brain so big, y'all can call me Jimbo
I'm off like rocket, y'all [?] stop it
Limited edition shit, y'all can't even cop it
Lyrics in every pocket, dropkick the logic
Even if you had a cherry, y'all couldn't top it
You makin' a mess of your sounds, I hit the floor and mop it
If you got everyone to hate, y'all couldn't stop this (Nope)
'Cause I'm Abstract, and I'm the one up in this bitch
Ain't stoppin' 'til this voice gets me super rich

[Outro]
Yeah, change miles, haha

Abstract

Growing up in New Jersey, Luke Terkovich, otherwise known as Abstract, was involved with music at an early age. Learning how to play piano, electric guitar, and the drums were Luke’s first involvement with music — and he did it all before 6th grade. With a move across country from New Jersey to Jackson, Wyoming, the distance between learning and playing new instruments got larger. It wasn’t until several years later that Luke began to mess around with freestyling during his high school years spent at Jackson Hole High. Evolving his newly found musical expression into Raised in Jackson, WY, Abstract is known for his immense musical versatility and affinity for providing uplifting music for a turbulent world. With a knack for storytelling, he provides introspective motivation to all who take the time to dive into his work. Notably known for his remix of Ruth Bs Lost Boy “Neverland” which has garnered hundreds of millions of plays on YouTube, his work with Drumma Battalion and Roze, and his 2016 album Something to Write Home About. He heads a collective known as “A Team Worldwide” 5 musicians from 4 different countries. Producers Drumma Battalion of Norway, Blulake of Sweden, Cryo Music of Scotland, and Abstract. Coming off his first overseas tour with YONAS, the ATWW collective is gearing up to drop Abstracts new album/experience late summer 2018.writing detailed lyrics, he began to find that he could vent the stresses of his everyday life through creating music. Slowly progressing through the years of his new town where he calls home; balancing school, life, and music developed Luke to become Abstract.

Trying to find his sound was a young teenager who just looked to get something written down and then translated into music, and eventually rap. Still in his caterpillar stage of metamorphosis was a young Abstract who released his first ever collection of songs, properly named The Dream.

In 2012, through YouTube, Abstract met Craig McAllister, a producer from Glasgow, Scotland. During that period, Abstract was in the midst of working on On My Own Time and was the first time Craig showed up with Abstract. Afterwards, the duo started to mesh extremely well and produced the five projects, Under Lights & Microscopes, A Life To Live By, Dreaming With Eyes Open, The Science Of Feeling Tall, and We Are The Artist.
