What's it worth Tell me what it's worth Coming for the throne but survival that be first This be part of me Get it by any means These days it's hard to believe But once you see it you'll realize Money ain't a thing It ain't nothing if you don't got your mind Don't battle with yourself in a world that'll fall apart All I know is in the end I won't be where I started I got scars How're you living lately We've been disconnected and I'm sorry I'm replying late Know the worlds been crazy lately Yeah I've just been focused yeah Trying to keep my mind straight Trying to change my mind state Millionaire motives put a million in the bank Realize what I took for granted Now that I'm knowing I'll never do that shit again Yeah I know that I'm a sinner We all are you're in denial No one's perfect like these pictures That she's posting for the likes Yeah I know that I'm a sinner We all are you're in denial No one's perfect like these pictures That she's posting for the likes What's it worth Tell me what it's worth Coming for the throne but survival that be first This be part of me Get it by any means These days it's hard to believe But once you see it you'll realize Money ain't a thing It ain't nothing if you don't got your mind Don't battle with yourself in a world that'll fall apart All I know is in the end I won't be where I started I got scars Got memories I don't wanna think about Not think about or dream about Got me thinking I'm the one that's fucked up Perception is believing now Turn to sheep watch them zone in No control on what you're wanting How you really let the time go Looking back that shit eats my soul Yeah I know that I'm a sinner We all are you're in denial No one's perfect like these pictures That she's posting for the likes Yeah I know that I'm a sinner We all are you're in denial No one's perfect like these pictures That she's posting for the likes What's it worth Tell me what it's worth Coming for the throne but survival that be first This be part of me Get it by any means These days it's hard to believe But once you see it you'll realize Money ain't a thing It ain't nothing if you don't got your mind Don't battle with yourself in a world that'll fall apart All I know is in the end I won't be where I started I got scars

This worlds so crazy right now This worlds Bat shit Crazy I be blasted Blasted through the madness There's two kinds of people in this world The ones that will and the ones that won't take action Lost in fatal attractions But if she's a ten that's better than a random ratchet Turning my back how I know you ain't gon stab it But that's on me That's low key in my mind What I see What it all mean It's hard to find Working a lot of patience Hours adding up For this music shit I didn't know what I was giving up But now looking back I can say it was all worth it Striving to be great but nobody be perfect That's a facade if I've ever seen one Internet gangsters run when the heat come Set your pride aside that's better than living a lie Living for highs living for love living for my Fam you know I got you when I was down and broke you had my back Emotionally so stressed emotionally detached How we gon eat if we ain't gon chase If you're a beast in this world then everything is prey Coming from that westside Smoking on the 405 That kush that be that lala My bitch she got that wap wap Can't do this from the sideline Damian Lillard when it's game time It eventually became time But never could predict on the way it was going to go The way it was going to go I was in a mode Facing my faults Had to face my faults I had to face the truths Face pain face hate that be facing you Only way to heal and become who you are meant to be Thinking bigger and I stopped with the settling All my dogs gon eat Not talking about that pedigree Don't let the pressure get to me but the anticipations killing me Trust the process Appreciated when I had less Past lessons put me at my best Coming from that westside Smoking on the 405 That kush that be that lala My bitch she got that wap wap Can't do this from the sideline Damian Lillard when it's game time It eventually became time

I've been on my job this shit heavy They gon' get involved when they're ready Yeah I try to keep a small circle Cause too much trust could be deadly And we can get involved in some money Why work for them when we can run it What we on know they gonna love it What we on know they gonna love it No passing us up Ain't no passing us up Only making moves that'll feel right Takes too much energy to act fake Lately I've been feeling like the new me Hitting up the old me it's too late Working overnight what you sleeping on Hard times but I stay strong Write my wrongs but forever wrong Opportunities forever gone That's the cancel culture at it's best Acting like you're better but you know you're not Don't be an enemy to yourself Making enemies from your pride I've been on my job this shit heavy They gon' get involved when they're ready Yeah I try to keep a small circle Cause too much trust could be deadly And we can get involved in some money Why work for them when we can run it What we on know they gonna love it What we on know they gonna love it No passing us up Ain't no passing us up I've been tripping on the lifestyle Only thinking right now blowing up my phone I don't really got the time I've been tripping on the lifestyle Only thinking right now blowing up my phone I don't really got the time for it Yeah I had to bounce back Numbers always beat facts So I had to count it up just so I could count on that I could count on that I've been on my job this shit heavy They gon' get involved when they're ready Yeah I try to keep a small circle Cause too much trust could be deadly And we can get involved in some money Why work for them when we can run it What we on know they gonna love it What we on know they gonna love it No passing us up

Hotel gone for the night Road trips roll something nice Chain smoke high this is life Why my wrongs feel right Without love where's life I don't know I try to never take for granted huh This life it's hard to understand it huh Had to come back from the damage huh But to this world it look picture perfect like a candid I don't even know why Why I'm trying to imply I know you're on the same vibes Really on this shit now Really gonna get mine Really be about time From pm to the am Different locations Chop up blaze it Tell me why they still on the same shit Hotel gone for the night Road trips roll something nice Chain smoke high this is life Why my wrongs feel right Without love where's life I don't know I try to never take for granted huh This life it's hard to understand it huh But that fake I can see right through Had to look through a different view I Took advantage of the late night thoughts Check my thoughts and it comes with a cost Make you wonder if it is your fault Either way I had to give my all Shawty west coast nigga like E40 Every shot I take I say Kobe Legends never die and it's been on my mind ever since Hotel gone for the night Road trips roll something nice Chain smoke high this is life Why my wrongs feel right Without love where's life I don't know Hotel gone for the night Road trips roll something nice Chain smoke high this is life Why my wrongs feel right Without love where's life I don't know I try to never take for granted huh This life it's hard to understand it huh

I don't want to talk about it, I'm all about that action yeah Look for satisfaction until I do I keep on adding up Stack it up and build it up until I feel it's real enough Fall in love with things and at the same time they be killing us Get it it's the perfect time Perfect time for getting mine Learning how to minimize so my life can be supersized I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up Not doing this for the fame Next level is super saiyan Balling like a shot caller swerving on them like I'm Dame When I'm in the neighborhood I realized that I had it good But I took advantage until now I never understood I felt I had to make it up And that's why I had to change it up They showing us the way But dammit they ain't making us Fucking with my conscious when I'm listening to nonsense I don't live on a promise I just get what I want that's why I got it That's real, I put that shit on everything, everything That's how I learned to cherish things Word of mouth is how I got me where I'm at I'm tired of putting a lot in where I never get back and that's a shame Yeah, yeah that's a shame (Yah ooh) Get it it's the perfect time Perfect time for getting mine Learning how to minimize so my life can be supersized I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up Get it it's the perfect time Perfect time for getting mine Learning how to minimize so my life can be supersized I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up All these things be adding up Life’s just like a movie get the camera Trials and tribulations could’ve brought me down Instead it made me better with a newer sound Real or fake tell me what’s the difference Cause lately I can’t tell what their intention is Refuse to be controlled by a system No longer feeling sorry as a victim Show only through action you can count on us Big difference from a rookie to an amateur The plot thickens this god given its prewritten I needed distance from people wanting the Wrong attention Things in life seem old but new It seems like life repeats itself And I just noticed the loop Run it up I double up I can be the one too If you around fake people then truly that’s on you Thats truly on you Yeah Yeah that's truly on you Get it it's the perfect time Perfect time for getting mine Learning how to minimize so my life can be supersized I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up Get it it's the perfect time Perfect time for getting mine Learning how to minimize so my life can be supersized I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up I know that they be mad at us All these things be adding up

Rags to riches change your personality Being who I want and not who I felt I had to be See the truth clear as tv screens they're acting new When your world falls apart who has your back Seems important to know And seems more relevant than ever before Fact check all these believers are sharing madness Out to the masses and you're surprised what happened Receive what you're attracting What did you track in Their energy is showing from their actions Quote that like a caption Liquor weed and addy send the addy to a bad bitch Down to earth shawty not a hoe that's trying to cash in How I'm feeling elevated driving and I'm blasted Passed on some opportunities cause I have morals So tell me how we gonna move forward I've been thinking about nada Nada but the dollar Being nonstop living no commas Maybe that's my problem Or maybe that's their problem Thinking about nada Nada but the dollar Thinking about nada Shit nonstop Thinking about nada Nada but the dollar Thinking about nada Maybe that's my problem Mind games I was blind to things Couldn't see what was obvious Consuming the lies and it is bottomless The more you try to forget the bigger the problem gets Obviously honest made myself a promise Make myself go crazy when I'm looking at these comments And I don't wanna wait for it Cause in the future that's the shit you'll pay for And I ain't trying to keep score Ambition is the thing that keeps me wanting more So this is like a lay up Make moves don't need to say much I've been thinking about nada Nada but the dollar Being nonstop living no commas Maybe that's my problem Or maybe that's their problem Thinking about nada Nada but the dollar Thinking about nada Shit nonstop Thinking about nada Nada but the dollar Thinking about nada Maybe that's my problem

They're watching like Cinemax run it back She fall in love with that All on my line I dive in like a running back All of my life I've been looking for something that keep me inspired Irregular minds creating the regular See through the lies these mushrooms are edible Got me fucked up on my schedule Let them know power moves mr incredible Money elastic if you got the passion I'm all about action These niggas just posting a caption Balance through madness Need to find peace but it ain't in a casket This life can be vicious and drugs get expensive Hollywood living the room is a kitchen I'm whipping switching locations Bitch I be blazing search for the feeling of feeling amazing All the time Fall in line I don't fit that vibe Bottom line Imma Optimize innovative when I wanna I Immortalize all my idols battle with myself Survival is vital Shorty what you sipping on? It's better to be buzzed in a time like this Accept my pain recognize my hate just to shine like this Lift me up don't hold me down need to grind like this Imma die a legend I'm not like them I'm the only one I'm so frustrated when they don't understand I'm already thinking they don't give a damn Blunt be rotating While I check the latest My mind in a maze And I'm looking for ways to get out of this circle They're saying it's worth it I use to be nervous about whats my future my purpose Just hope that it's worth it Learning my lessons from losses a lot can be taught in the time that your talking just Listen Things on my conscious not common don't know what to call it But know that it's causing attention How they gon' love me then hate me? No they can't break me no nigga no I was built different I was built winning Constantly chasing the feeling Constantly chasing and chasing it Fall in line I don't fit the vibe Bottom line imma optimize Innovative when I wanna I Immortalize all my idols Battle with myself Survival is vital Shorty what you sipping on? It's better to be buzzed in a time like this Accept my pain recognize my hate just to shine like this Lift me up don't hold me down need to grind like this Imma die a legend I'm not like them I'm the only one

about

AMG Artist Young Lit Hippy discusses his latest album “Psychological Warfare”.

Young Lit Hippy is from Portland Oregon & moved to LA 2 years ago.

He dropped 3 projects this year including an EP called pure intentions.

His latest album that he’ll be releasing on December 31st is called Psychological warfare. He described it as a recap “in a weird way” of 2020.

Hippy acknowledged the negativity that has come out of 2020 but from the bad, he feels, will come good.

Just like when a fire burns a forest down, it can be a good fertilizer to what grows next YLH expressed. so will light come from the darkness of 2020.

Psychological warfare addresses the emotional balance in life in general & 2020 specifically. It is a combination of deep thought & an in the moment party vibe.

There’s a lot of self reflection in the music & it was a process of omitting self doubts.

When I asked Hippy how this project is different than previous ones, he said: “I was looking for a bigger sound, a better sound. I outsourced the mixing & mastering. All my other projects have been mixed by myself. This project was mixed by Dee Kei mixes & that is going to be one of the biggest differences in the sound."

“Since quarantine,” He continued “ I’ve just been creating a lot of music, learning what realm I want to be in sonically. Not jumping around too much and finding the spot I can feel like: I’m cool with this, I don’t need to force anything, it just sounds like me. Im young lit hippy & this is my sound.”

Young Lit Hippy explained to me that “Everyone has a point where they’re either going up or down, and you have to make a choice. I feel like I had that point earlier in my career when I first moved to LA. I came to LA more for guidance than to find out what I’m going to do.

I had to push through the self doubt & decide if I’m going up or down. I’ve decided to go all the way up.”

Be sure to keep an ear out from Psychological warfare from Young Lit Hippy dropping just in time for the end of 2020, to carry us over from this year, help us decipher the madness & bring us into 2021 refreshed & in a new light.
