Lyrics

Honestly, what's stopping me
From fulfilling prophecy
Subconsciously
Feel like nobody's toppin me
Cautiously, the hill is steep
But I dig deep internally
And arise on the other side, poorly supplied
But I surpass the motherfucker
Using gifts to survive
I swallow the pride, like four course
Humble lil guy
Got weed in my socks
Unorthodoxic thoughts interlock
It drops in the pot
Still sizzling
Moving off Ritalin
Clouds thickening, surrounding me
Disregarding the boundaries
Bound to be something following
Hollering, tryna swallow me
Slaughter me, like the opposition
Thought they was winning, they not
I'm still on top
Like ramen now lemme stir the pot
And I just wanna grow
And branch off, at all costs, can't 'fford a loss
Let the roots settle, a withered petal renewed
Restored to the former, adorn the armor
Sprout when it's warmer, outdo the stronger
And I just wanna grow
And branch off, at all costs, can't 'fford a loss
Let the roots settle, a withered petal renewed
Restored to the former, adorn the armor
Sprout when it's warmer, outdo the stronger
My conscious is clicking
Like rocks when they skipping
I stay above the water, dismissing these thoughts
While I'm drifting
The breeze is lifting, carrying me
While my eyes is still squinted, I'm dazed
Though unfazed, by charades, and the games
That you play
You keep toying with the mold, you bold
I wanna grow, branch off
In hopes the foundation holds, I'm lone
Talking to the stones with brittle bones
Tryna atone, for the past mistakes that I made
When I was in the dirt
Barely sprouted, my mind was clouded
I moved without it
Everyday I'm doubting if I'm about it
Wait - no I'm not
Let's backtrack to that first verse
Before thoughts lurked
I know my worth it's just hard to tackle
With all the flaws
Numerous losses, moving like I don't care at all
Or I just say that
Overthinking, I playback
Them memories I hate that
My mind I can't escape that
He spinning back, hold that
His vision gone, so black
No cap, he really do that
Who that
That's D-O-N-T-E
Future Grammy Nominee, ****
Ain't no stopping him
Obstacles fail at blocking him
Topping him is impossible
Competence over confident
Hopping hurdles then squashing it
And I just wanna grow
And branch off, at all costs, can't 'fford a loss
Let the roots settle, a withered petal renewed
Restored to the former, adorn the armor
Sprout when it's warmer, outdo the stronger
And I just wanna grow
And branch off, at all costs, can't 'fford a loss
Let the roots settle, a withered petal renewed
Restored to the former, adorn the armor
Sprout when it's warmer, outdo the stronger
