Escalators, Pt. II (Remix)
Klassik Poet.
Pre-Cleared
The roots of his musical journey were established long before his birth, thanks to the legacy of his grandfather, Ray Patterson, a member of the UK-based group, Delegation, that enjoyed humble success in the states during the 1970s and early 1980s. Encouraged by his parents, his own musical exploration began earnestly after high school.
Conceived as an underdog, Klassik Poet.'s claim to this title stems from his origin in White Plains, New York, an area not familiar with artists of his creative caliber. He has appeared on renowned platforms like Sway's Universe, Shade 45, Power 105.1, and World Emcee, a testament to his burgeoning influence in the music industry.
His debut project, Before Things Get Weird, released in 2019, laid a solid foundation for his musical career which included a 13-show world tour across Europe. His subsequent venture, Kontradiction, released in 2021, featured the lead single "Highway," remembered for its captivating music video. In 2023, the release of his third project, Save A Dance For Me, marked further validation of his prowess with formidable features, including Jadakiss.
Klassik Poet.'s continually expanding influence, marked by sold-out headlining shows, guest verses, industry support, and cosigns, prove that he is more than just a rising star. He embodies a fresh creative perspective on introspection, self-awareness, and the ambition to inspire a worldwide positive impact through his music, combining honesty, vulnerability, and intellectual depth.

Lyrics
Escalators…
That was some surreal **** I just did
Man, I’m the greatest
I flourish on these stages,
I’ve been to many places,
I’m throwing up the peace, minus the index
If they hating, they never had a Klassik
They don’t know what it’s taking,
I’m headed out to Vegas, I don’t believe in luck, ay **** your connotation,
I shoot another 7 towards the money situation,
Come up on a lot of cash, then the family escalating (escalators)
The city’s full of satan
These ******* show they toxic side
Before we get to dating,
They’ll kill you in the streets,
Then go tell streaming, and they placements
I’m never one to gossip,
And what they stress to me just doesn’t matter, give a **** about a rapper,
I don’t compromise to get ahead,
I play the shed with the stallions, I’m a thoroughbred,
Watching them come and go, and most of them have **** the bed,
Decided long ago, I won’t become a victim
I step lateral instead (every step, escalators)
Yeah won’t take the easy way out,
Check your circle, cause some ****** get to running they mouth,
Since we being real, if anybody put us in beef,
Duality is on a ***** side, see what I’m bout,
We had to flee out, to the safe house, with DCOS in the south,
Ew if your energy is negative, you can’t be around,
I got a call from so and so, that said that so and so saw me,
Laughed and said, “oh is that so?”
Cause I’m not even in town, I’ll be..
Minding my business
Riding with my *******
Getting how I live it
They don’t even gotta know
Leveling up, staying lowkey
Rolling with my ******,
Humble as a *****, who don’t think he boutta blow, so I’m
Minding my business
Riding with my ******
Getting how I live it
They don’t even gotta know
Leveling up, staying lowkey
Rolling with my ******,
Humble as a *****, who don’t think he
Boutta blow
You think the earth revolves around you
Like a sun, like my kid
Pack em up, and send em off
One and done, I ain’t worried
My mother said she felt like I was always in a hurry,
These days I’ve slowed it down, and thrown em off at my tempo, crescendo,
Is leaking from the speakers, out the window
I had to air it out, cause it’s a rental
Another day, another destination,
Another bag to make, another lofty occupation,
Repeatedly I had to get back up,
And knock the dirt off my shoulder,
**** is yall complaining for, *****
We suck it up, and roll another s*****,
We had a bad day,
(Who!?) me and Kashway,
Feeling sorry for yourself is just so passé
I’ll drop Ed Wuncler on his *** for my lemonade,
Those who know me, knew I’ve always been a renegade,
I create my own wave, threw a party at the docks,
Got my character on main,
Knock a ***** out his socks,
Go for blood, final boss,
Only greatness like The Rock,
I could never be a person that I’m not so I’m …
Minding my business
Riding with my ******
Getting how I live it
They don’t even gotta know
Leveling up, staying lowkey
Rolling with my ******,
Humble as a *****, who don’t think he boutta blow, so I’m
Minding my business
Riding with my ******
Getting how I live it
They don’t even gotta know
Leveling up, staying lowkey
Rolling with my ******,
Humble as a *****, who don’t think he
boutta blow
