Hyper Chronic Yes I'm on it Vision Sonic Cyclotronic Omicron Andromedae And On my song I'm gonna fly for ya Star clusters, nebulas Aliens and laser guns Terrorists of the 31st with dirty bombs made meteors Hybernate. Jump Hyperspace Jumper gates with time delays Hyphenate the L I made thats wiperblades size L's I bake Indicator time displays Indicate my time displaced Lackadais, half-amazed half my days, i'm half awake Take off!..... uh uh 747 Hydrotrain calling all the passengers boarding on the hydroplane serving up for snacks today violet colored nugget trays dinner platter - happy-face drinks on the house - wedding day Reach the peak of cruising speeds Hovering 3 Ozones deep phone home but voice mail just beep keypad must be missing keys feeling appeased with myself toast to life I sip it well Change the flight plan I just might man Take the light - and - say good might man.... (Verse YLM) Young Like Me, Howedo... Space bus, (Space) Space Bus... Young Like me, (Young Like me) Howedo, (Howedo) Space bus, (Space) Space Bus... Bout time...uh...Yep.. Good night from another world Night light on the lip that pearl I just wanna see that girl make my lips and my fingers curl The way she pulls and roll is like on cruise control watch her on the totem poll slide down slow as I lose control She is my flight attendant we fighting for attention must be the left rotation that got me thinking patience...... And I think that i am losing it lackadais, half amazed, half my days, i'm half awake Take off!..... Space bus, space, space bus...(x7) Take off! (x7)

Lost 03:09
Never got directions on 'real-life', wait a min... Got my only ticket on a late meal - Catch-up in it Half stepping all day, never fully get up in it Half life quicker than an isotope wit lead up in it.. uh - but i'm still happy head up in it high in the clouds, no falling - i'm flying wit it understand i'm doing what i should.. but it don't mean i'm doing what I would or doing what I could.. Yes! I imagine when I blow Supersaien Flow - I might just glow from absorbing all the lime-light Stretching out my line tight cuz zeros ain't lined right I see it in my mind's eye hienken and hindsight... uh - oh I know that I am pushing it Stepping to the limit thats why I put Kush in it I'll pull a lil Bush and false claim victory "Mission here accomplished" but missing all the history Lies and decit is that martial art epitome Flies at my feet cuz what I kick is shitting me uh Oh I'm dreaming of a winning streak Fun stuff wit linen sheets On star and cruising speeds Rock stars and billy jeans Pop rocks wit silly green Have me a hella fiend Fade feeling hella clean... but COME SEE ME TOMORROW what I said today is on time thats borrowed counting down the seconds to the minute of the hour.. feeling like my last day of freedom and power... time to re-elevate - re-evaluate my time real estate i'm on What planet am I on?...... Who's time am I on?....... Who is this I see? Is this all you can be? I'm gon end on an up note i'm only down so I can feel it on the up stroke no way to fade me wit mister clean or bar soap Eyes wide open like i never keep my eyes close obvious is obvious acts that I see man, side show - sloppiest cut through the horseplay, the bullshit, the foreplay cut throat all day - I treat my life like OJ Catch me highway speeding up in both lanes Guess I still be acting like my old ways Yea I live it how I get it but wait a minute man -homie ever got directions.....

my Reflection satisfaction - be content like any normal fashion Jesus christ i'm missing all the passion world gone crazy indeed shutter island feed me stories feed me lies special, unique go live my life? But this can't be my life I'm one of a kind, so please rewind... and we all, running out of time trying to catch the big fish runnign out of line... chase big oceans leave you high and dry buy a big dream Then take it for a test drive this dream's a labyrinth vision green like absinth faded too much to follow my discipline my love slipped away, into oblivion - and she's sorry we work 9-5 - live, die by stability work just survive, have epitphany to wake up by the kick of inception of feeling free.... so lets rock, I gotta whole day to roll, stay faded under sun shades tinted in gold be a star - like flashing lights from above life's passing me by - so I do it for love.... (2x) I do it for love push comes to shove, I do it for love shIT fits like a glove push comes to shove I do it for love (2x) Uh yea I do it for love Uh yea Just do it for love Yea And shits getting harder Like I need to start eating smarter Fast food nation, mental retarded user wasting consumer products living fashion, excessive habits free porn, everyone fucked like rabbits phone apps for jerk offs on the go... neighbors jerk kids off on the loww.. Lacking decent reasonable action fighting tooth and nail to the last man I just want to take life on a last spin do or die world crash in the fast lane Look how time flys, I live for the moment yet barely alive searching for meaning like a throne on my side patch up the feeling, keep it moving like a sign uh (2x) I do it for love push comes to shove, just do it for love shIT fits like a glove push comes to shove I do it for love (outro)

I reach high, grip on a star rip on a star super nova these bars feed on a star covert, inert energies, into synergy auoras enter me, internal banter be too much for my train to follow my thoughts be off track, and words too hard to swallow Yeah I may be shallow, but you fuck wit me i'll leave you motherfuckers sleepy hollow.. please follow... You wallow, I get it in, get a fiend watch me lean on a city scene, puffin green Stay clean prestine, aqua marine Raw sixteen served, ala cruisine Laced up from the bass up, point my face up I look high, weed brush my make up... 9-5 don't get me no jacob... but still fly, on the side hustle my cake up fuck a fade out, i'ma fade up... you Black out, I go darth vader...... Bar none greater, bars too hard for them hard on harters Shots wit no chasers, 100% - the proof is that in the content whether you be spitting the truth is not on my conscience so will you step in the booth knowing that its your coffin r.i.p to step to me but all i see is orphans.... (4x) comon Put your L's in the air, baby.. comon put your L's in the air.... Hear the call from the motherland long been neverland, wish for the sky so I fly fly peter pan smell the breeze like heaven scent Red in the eye - light up my amsterdam I'm a Lion of Judah, fresh out the States and i'm preying on Buddah... Fresh outta papes cuz you gon need a ruler, face over flames cuz we each got tulips... Oh I'm like a Pilot, navigate the skys but my clouds are violet.... Calibrate my eyes so I see my island landing in my sights, but the slope is diamond Feeling non-violent, cool, calm collecting hyperdermic memories like an injection... building up my antibody like my conviction ready for the stars again - ignition

about

The first official mixtape from Howedo details the rapper/poet’s search for life’s meaning and how to cope with day to day struggles. Howedo paints a series of pictures depicting how he balances maintaining stability while finding the means to chase his dream. Confident and aggressive, Howedo transmits his lifestyle & persona with lyricism; shying from the fabrication & self-aggrandizing glory seen so often in Hip-Hop culture today.

The concept of 3LU (a.k.a. 3 L's Up) is representative of Howedo’s own mantra: Live Life Lit. 3LU symbolizes the notion of living life to the fullest while being a beacon of light in one’s own life. 3LU is the very foundation on which Howedo finds inspiration to continue to hone his craft as a wordsmith.
