Lyrics

Look
Whoever said heaven ain't empty, all this sinning so tempting
Time just wasting so quickly, hoping God don't resent me
Hoping God ain't resentful, got all this pain in my mental
I'm at a loss for words and still ain't just flow through the pencil
I am a prodigy, mama tell me she's proud of me
I am my city's protege, they know no one's topping me
I'm Percy Jackson with this pen
When it's time to get it in, I am just speaking what I live
And these lyrics make you cringe
What is the definition of pain
Don't life feel like the definition of fame
The locks on my heart still chain to the game
I'm already dead, you just speak with my remains
It's the wasteland, strange man
Tell me I'm a hero, guess I should've brought a cape then
Used to be a zero, remember nobody played him
That was back in the day
Now this crowd got me wave sick
Hotter than a sauna be, famous as I wanna be
Demons still be haunting me, but great is what I'm gonna be
I stayed down as if there wasn't a way up
Been out here getting to it, I heard you **** been laid up
Every post, you see me balling like a layup
MJ, whenever I decide to fade up
Aye is crazy, they spit whatever they make up
I just keep it real, so it's no wonder why they hate us
Like, you ain't shit yet, Mel
I hope you get that
Friends start to fade, then the bigger picture vignette
I'm so over your head, you little **** didn't get that
Friends start to fade, then the bigger picture vignette
It's just the words from an artist
I found this beat, I was starving
That's why this flow hit so hard, you'll probably fall into a coffin
No ad-libs, **** be stalling
And I'm like, this is me world Take me as I am
I do what I want, I let you boys do what you can
Was grinding to stay humble, I'm hoping you understand
That working with humble grind made this boy turn into a man
But damn
That's not enough for them
I can't put my trust in them
That's why I don't fuck with them
I'm wishing good luck to them
But who's to say they do the same
I know times have changed, but I'm still footing through the rain
With this pain in my brain, it's hard to stay sane
Maintain my aim, and Kurt Cobain
The church don't pray, and the birds don't sing
And the beat, she just scream
Like
