Lost in the clouds that's hovering over me

Stuck in this brainstorm full of the snow and sleet, I'm cold as ice

Body temp at a low degree, I'm cold blooded

I want what I am deserved and everything owed me

I'm Denzel, I'm leaving here with something

That'd be the words if my soul could speak

I need a receipt for all the of seconds and minutes that I was deceived and sold a dream

Surrounded by flames and can't even get me a Poland Spring

Feelin like Bron and the Cavs in 2016, fuck it, I'll go for three

Still gotta use the armor when they expose the chinks, that's the way

I'm hitting ignore whenever the phone'll ring

I'm isolated, alone to think

I'm having some thoughts that you won't believe

Back in the days when moms was lighting the incense mixing wit potpourri

I don't think that I became who I was supposed to be, but I do not regret

'Member when dro was makin his shoulder lean

I had the stress of a lonely teen

But nobody giving no fucks about any "woe as me"s no matter what

I had to slow my speed

So I'm still waiting, I'm on that Jodeci

Telling me that I should chill, baby I don't agree

I can't let you in my mind

I won't let you cloud my focus

I can't let this waste my time

No no no

I won't let this in my head

I won't let you cloud my focus

Won't forgive and won't forget

No no no

So what is the cost of peace of mind ?

Show me the purchase price

Walking inside of the field where all of the serpents lie

What is the way I should say to leave me alone? I gotta word it right

Never should you be concerned with mine

So **** just know that I curb advice

I know that you probably think I internalize

Well if I do, and I'm expressing the way that I do

You can imagine the fire and flame that burns inside

Ever since Versus Time

Tryna stay focused and living by only one word: survive

Letting my thoughts diversify

They comin in waves, so I gotta turn the tide

They wearing those masks, they got a superb disguise

Sheep that's dressing like wolves so they can submerge and hide

I don't respect it a bit

They got they traumas that they never verbalize

Trying to take all your demons and then make 'em yours and mine

Nah **** they yours , you gotta deal

Steadily battling with my enormous pride

I know that I live by the sword, so I gotta know by the sword I'll die

Prioritize, had to confirm that I will not ever need no ones support but mine

Asserted until I was certified

Malcolm X at them curtains 'til its curtain time

I can't let you in my mind

I won't let you cloud my focus

I can't let this waste my time

No no no

I won't let this in my head

I won't let you cloud my focus

Won't forgive and won't forget

No no no
