Strangers

I'm still holdin' on to promises, I told myself runnin' low on faith Stopped smoking 'cause my head wasn't the same And my heart is in a heavy state, heavy place Wouldn't be my mother's son if I wasn't great Time tickin', pocket need filling Grew a little distant, little bro got my inner child safe Stumble in the rain, voice faded My energy failing, Brandon told me, "Channel it and wait" Wait, 'cause I've been lost for some days I've been swinging, I've been caged in Face looking thinner by the day's end Question what I'm chasing Feeling low, then, feel amazing Wait Granny Jean say you chase it Life doesn't stay, so why you tryna keep it waiting all day? This man are two faced like pennies all day Now, they're saying that I changed Tell the truth, I'm disarrayed Living a melancholy phase They're throwing shade upon my name 'Cause when your future's so bright, they can't face it And if you look me in my face, it's more blatant The weather changed I didn't go, I stayed and with-strained it Flipping spirits in the minutes And I'm still in the lab shaping Envisioning a heaven, was a kid needing escaping Growing pains, my bones aching Some of us got lost along the way And wandering the maze aimless Making sure that we ain't nameless Convince myself to pray, but I don't ever have the patience And I'm more me than I've ever been And I am what I was made in And I still don't say shit Unless it's me and you, but you and me are just strangers (strangers) Oh yeah, I'd support you all the way, man (that's enough, man) All the way, man That's what I'd hope for you to be Like, you know, up there, man (yeah) That's the aim for me to see the vision Is that your vision, though? Wait Wait 'til the day At least the day's end At least the day's end Can't Can't you just see That we're just strangers? That we're just strangers
