Lyrics

Tryna keep up with the times
Feeling distant, out of mind
Passionate yet I get up at 9
No motivation but I need to work the grind
You gotta put me outta my situation
Constrained to the thought of annihilation
Expressing myself got me to the basement
Of my caged cell, I'm tryna get out
Everyday I say something, the words are twisted
Caught me out of context thinking I'm the one who hates it
Self-introspect is what I do
And get the burden off my chest until there's nothing left
I wanna be the man who God wants me to be
That's my perspective, why don't you just let me be?
Validation, attention-seeking
Aw yeah, that's who I don't wanna be
I don't make my songs to please you all
Expression of myself is what I aim for
Genuineness manifests itself when I humble myself
Unto my personal intellectual self and get the head straight
Spend too deep in a loop to understand what love is
Self-sacrifice, best way to describe it
Seems like everybody's ashamed of it
Why does everybody put a fake front?
Let's all admit we often jump the gun
Too afraid to face our problems, let's run
If this is how we act, can we say that we've won?
This all become a game of knowledge
It's not about the service we pledge
It's all 'bout the benefits of our mess
Construction and deconstruction of our flesh
I found my identity in Christ
Principles by which I keep things in mind
I wanna drive my own conscience in line
Like how NF does, something to strive
Should've walked away from a lot of things
That kept me passing mistakes up at my dream
I wanna grow in faith, with love and hope
Hoping that someday I get to see my loved ones close
I keep hoping, that's my biggest mistake
Never put in the work, want it to be handed on a plate
Drifting away from God, I think he's calling my name
What for? I wanna know my fate
Trying too hard to make people understand the thoughts from my head
That's coming from a man
A place of peace, that's where I wanna land
In rationality, that here I stand
