Vitruvian Man

Woke up in the morning feeling blessed, yes Stomach grumblin', they be callin' IBS, stressed

Days work, stay weighin' on my chest Fresh white collared shirt pressed

Now I got a dress to impress, I said I woke up in the morning feelin' pressure of perfection

No matter what I say, I gotta deliver like a reverend One bad day from bein' closer to God

It's like everything I say evaporatin' in a hazy fog

I learned the tricks of the trade, but I wasn't a magician

Could I con an industry filled with sex, drugs, and weapons

Rap got me through the depression, got me through the Rage

Outta cage, kept me from pickin' up a Smith & Wesson

Another day I'm headin' in another direction Hit the snooze button like I'm releasin' all the tension

Little kid livin' all his dreams and aspirations I'm rollin' out of bed feelin' like a motherfuck celebration

Second verse, firstborn, call it my debut In squabs or at home, so much to wade through

New dad, roll heavy, no rehearsin' eyes open, even if my soul's forever hurtin

Obligations doubled, yet the clock's still the same

One misstep, it's more than my rep be at stake, passin' on my genes

And the flaws in my pocket, Wish I'd keep the change hidden, make a simple bank deposit

Little eyes watchin' me, make a man second guess

Can't knock the hustle, gotta put up numbers like success

In the clinic, they're ready to question my diagnosis

But at home, I can never Google how to be the closest

The message is important, but the audience is too

Two roles, two lives, but only one truth

Used to seek validation and applause in the charts

Now I find it in the tiny hands grippin' my heart

Now what I gotta do for y'all to meet me halfway

Pull a rabbit out a hat, be the jack of all trades

Da Vinci in the flesh, Vitruvian man

Only thing left for me to do is show you I can

When I step in the booth or the room for a session

I'm a doc, I'm a dad, and these be the day's lesson

Livin' life in these verses, but the chorus stay the same

Two titles, one man, no alias, one name
