L I S I HEY Lisi. I’m messaging on behalf of my brother. He is a HUGE fan! His birthday is coming up (turning 17) and was just wondering if you could do a video wishing him a happy birthday. (or something else, anything really lol) Your music and the purpose of your lyrics is something he has used to communicate to me as a sister and my parents how he feels. I praise God everyday that he can use someone like you, who is able to use their voice on behalf of other youth... INCLUDING MY BROTHER. Your music really resonates with him because it’s something that speaks for him (especially your words in MY USO, POLY QUEEN, and GIVE IT BACK) I hope this message gets to you well!⚡️ God bless -Gio

This song gives me the energy to get out of bed a 6:00 am

[@fuegod.yamaguchi2494]

Clear, Concise, and uplifting. All these drillers keep saying their message is "stay out the streets" yet a large portion of their music aint backing what they preaching. Lisi on the other hand is not only saying it, but he's breaking the steps down needed to move forward in a positive manner. Keep doing your thing Lisi and never change my brother! You can change the world one youth at a time 👊🏼 All you youngsters out there take note - that's how a real man conducts himself. Lisi music ain't just what you want, but it's what you NEED.

Chasing that paper, hold it down for my usos out there breaking their backs. Tryna put food on tables wit save up money so the family can just kick back, look. I be out on that 9 to 5 like a hooker just passed to the winger. It's a pretty tuff grind but right oh mind if it means to feed the aiga. I gotta sweat for the check n then rep for this set on the mic I'm the best never regret say less. I'm blessed not stressed and I won't rest I gotta pay that B i double L, S. This job is no choice, but if to make the money is a must. Gotta work hard for ya coin coz everybody's got hands out like stopping a bus. Coz I'm just tryna stay focused, wanna live up to the words I've spoken. I'll admit sometimes in my life I'm broke but spirit will never be broken. Coz I was taught work hard, play hard, only you can manage your life. So you gotta grind hard play smart and I guarantee you'll be right. Work hard, play hard, only you can manage your life. So you gotta grind hard play smart and I'll guarantee you'll be right. Ayeeeee wake up in the morning I got money on my mind. I be out here breaking back so that my paper stays in line. It's my time have to shine ain't nobody gonna stop my grind. You won't ever see me rewind, pick up the pace don't waste no time. I'm putting in work I got faith in my dream like a seed that's probably why I came from the dirt. So before I make it I gotta be patient n work in the warehouse first. A lil bitta hard yakka won't hurt. So let's chase that check even if I gotta sweat, just wanna fill up Mum's purse. So don't you wait for judge the ones that's tryna get to that dosh. Tell em get lost, coz we're workin don't ever tell me that I don't have purpose. I be out here tryna put that work in. So my brother doesn't have to be urgin, my sisters can go on extersions, so my Dad's back won't be hurtin so my Mum doesn't have to worry boutta purchase. I gotta be at my families service. When I wake up high vest on cap still lased, up can't afford to get no pay cut gotta lay a foundation like makeup. Feel like a drive pick coz I'm just tryna make bucks, like Giannis. Next goal is a MVP for now I'm the factory for my family I'm grinding because they need me. Aye, we making that dosh hard yakka wit no days off. Put on the high vest shirt with the steel cap boots this grind day never gon stop. Chasing that paper, hold it down for my usos out there breaking their backs. Tryna put food on tables wit save up money so the family can just kick back. Aye I be out on the 6 to 6 like the time is five fifty four. See my incomes fine my fam don't mind but my heart is saying give me more. Now I be full time in the booth, hopin on the mic makin tracks for the youth. Yeah I live a good life now, but whenever you see me forget about all the things I've been through. I'm talkin bout workin hard and putting in for myself tryna keep a good work ethic. And that still remains my life switch lanes but I still maintain the same effort. So don't lose that faith even tho your slaving away my uso I back ya. Coz at the end of the day everybody's gotta lane but we still keep up that hard yakka. (A like would be appreciated 🙏🏼)
