Nocap Valuable Souls

Rapper, NoCap delivered his latest single, “Valuable Souls,” a somber record reflecting on the commonality of death. NoCap’s auto-tune-tinged voice breeds the feeling of pain as he reflects on the trials and tribulations he’s faced over the course of his life, from near-death experiences to losing those closest to him.

In the wake of Takeoff’s death, NoCap’s new song is a timely offering that dives into the dangers of being a rapper. He details the innate paranoia of survival while referencing the death of Pop Smoke. “We got valuable souls… We barely safe at home, look what they did to Pop,” he raps on the song.

NoCap is coming off of the release of his latest project, Mr. Crawford, which arrived in April. The 21-song project boasts appearances from Internet Money, Kodak Black, and NBA Youngboy.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah
(D-D-Damn, Dior, this shit crazy)

[Chorus]
And Momma always wondered why her child so quiet
They bash me everytime I try speakin’ my mind
Feel like I’m runnin’ from death, I dodged it so many times
They got these fuck niggas in style, so they ain’t feelin’ my kind
I joce in jail, I say “It happened for a reason”
Wap died off pills, I said “It happened for a reason”
We gon’ walk in with these poles tucked, I can’t help how I growed up
I want to get up off this drank, but feel who else I’ma vent to
They laughin’ everytime I tell ’em ’bout the shit that I been through-ough

[Verse]
Draco got life in jail with no evidence, I
Stuck with this feelin’, like I never could win, I
For all the rappers, listen close, got nothin’ to prove to no one
Feds laughin’, when the feds come, we die, then we get smoked on
Don’t get this shit confused, I do appreciate the real ones
Who with me right or wrong, encourage us to never give up
When we in the graveyard, the only time they fuckin’ feel us
Can’t rob me, gotta do me like I’m PnB
I’m in yo city, you gotta do me like I’m B.I.G
Ain’t goin’ nigga, you gotta do me like I’m XXT
I never knew that Wap would go out like Juice WRLD or Peep
Fred died when I was thirteen, like he saved me
Don’t get me wrong, I still slide through the A with magazines
Where I’m not supposed to be, I really miss the old me
Like who might take me first?, These niggas or the police

[Bridge]
Limit the places you go, or you hold on to yo pole
No I’m not tellin’ you how, but we got valuable souls, we got valuable souls
We barely safe at home, look what they did to Pops
Can’t leave my family hurt, I already dodged the block
Can’t ask my brothers how they doin’ ’cause they doin’ time

[Refrain]
I tell them everything happen for a reason, I know, I know
I tell them everything happen for a reason, oh-oh

[Chorus]
And Momma always wondered why her child so quiet
They bash me everytime I try speakin’ my mind
Feel like I’m runnin’ from death, I dodged it so many times
They got these fuck niggas in style, so they ain’t feelin’ my kind
I joce in jail I say “It happened for a reason”
Wap died off pills, I said “It happened for a reason”
We gon’ walk in with these poles tucks, I can’t help how I growed up
I want to get up off this drank, but feel who else I’ma vent to
They laughin’ everytime I tell ’em ’bout the shit that I been through-ough

[Outro]
Draco got life in jail with no evidence, I
Stuck with this feelin’ like I never could win, I
Everything happen for a reason
