Lyrics

Things keep me up at night
Where do I go, where is the light
I'm outta time, what do I do
Too much stress, I'm bout' to blow
Fuck taking it home, all just pain
Grown up walkin, shithead talkin'
Up in the sky now, we can just fly around
Free from the shackles that chained you
Free from the storm that you made
Free from the checks, getting paid
Stuck left alone in the rain
No spirit left behind, we've got our whole lives to cherish
It's all just a blemish, forget what they say
No matter what, we're all in the game
Who's the real leader, who's the real sidekick
We in the same race, bitch
Man, look at you, home alone
We like to think that we're grown
Just keep it up, inner child
You never died, never down
Maybe I'll earn Heaven's crown
I'm with my thoughts, let em' out
We never thought we'd make it, uh
Reached for my life, made it mine cuz'
I was stuck on autopilot, bout to crash
So now I see how to make it last
Pressing on the gas, goin' full sail
Need to slow down, I go full snail
It's a new world, it's a new life
Wonders of the world, enjoy
Got a new save, bitch I'm jumping in
I don't wait for shit, uh
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being, yuh
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Feel like I got all the keys
I was always treated like a king
Getting all those calls, let em' ring
Did I take it for granted? That's how I manage held up to a standard
Call me a Cancer, I got all the love
Shit can get toxic, where do you run
You can't predict, call it a mutt, nah
Man I ran shit, like Beyoncé
Fuck the competition, who could even compare
I almost lost my life by a hair
Janie protected my life, I could've just died
Feeling the love, I felt surprised
That was the first time I got the taste of fame
Build up a network, I build my life up
It was a lot back in the day, but it was all fun
Did I lose that spirit over the years?
How could I know, but I'm in control
Forget my directions
I did all of this shit to send a message
I lost the plot, what the in fuck
Know that you see me, think I got luck
But I was just grateful that I had support
Fuck the money, human spirit great as the Lord
I made the blueprint, broke through the door
We was out screaming "We were the best"
All of that talk was put to the test
I spit my rhymes, until I was dead
I made a tough deal, it was a gamble
I was in my head "Too much to handle!"
I got my brand though, it was worth it
Allergic to failure, a new disease
So many new people to please
Had to ask what was needed
So I made a whole fucking legion
Tom gave me advice, he was a real one
We was a team, we was a family
Hype, and we up, up to the top
We found the code, uh
Figured it out, we solved the puzzle
On your TV, everyone puzzled
He really made it, he really did it
He wasn't kidding, damn
So now I'm here, I'm looking back
I had a life that anyone could ask for
So why was it stressful, I couldn't get it
Ancestors guiding me, it was a mindfuck
Over time, I did overtime
Family was worried, but I didn't care
Focus on you, focus on the brand
I mean, you flew to Japan
You know you're the best
Are you at your best?
You need a break, you know it's ok
But I can't stop the fucking grind
Need to keep going, no
I need time, but I can't
Unhealthy, but it's needed
Can't look away, I'm in the driver's seat
If I fall off, I'll never come back
The need to stay relevant took over me
Mind was all foggy, I wasn't there
How can I help myself before I fall
My family cares, everyone cares, but I'm not caring for myself
Truth or dare, who calls the shots
Stuck in the business, what I am missing, uh
Need a reunion, together again
We're holding hands singing Kumbaya
Love your own friends, love your own self
I think I get now, uh
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
Cuz if I'm being honest, cuz if I'm being honest
