(I use lies as means of escape

I use lies for both of our sakes)

I been feeling dispassionate

I'm searching for where green pastures is

I ain't been on ten, I'm more of a Niner, closer to Kaepernick

Dark, deep hole, it's cavernous

I had to step out establishment

Starting to question my friends like is there yes men in my cabinet?

It gets better, just wait, huh, I feel the weight

Tried to plead my case and communicate

But with every growing age, as does the stakes

Bro, there ain't no second takes, don't make mistakes

I see the world's problems and my life's a microcosm

Slippery the slopes and now I'm sliding down the slaloms

Riding down like ski

Woe is me

Glee come with a fee

Nothing's free

Only get time on Saturdays

My eyes gloss with a sad malaise

I wash it down with Cabernet

I pass the buck, I pass the blame

No phoenix in that ash and flame

Another sun with half the name

No not Nash, like Battier

When the heat comes, you evacuate

Learned this from Rick Ross, I'm not a star (somebody lied)

I've been so exhausted, I'm working hard

The goal's almost accomplished, it's not far

But truth be told, I'm not sure at all

(I use lies as means of escape

I use lies for both of our sakes

There's a trick to keeping secrets

Commit to, and become your demons)
