Seasons change
The weather gets colder
You still act the same
Like you ain’t getting older
I don’t mean to complain
But it’s been this way since October
Really hate it
I’m slowly losing patience
I see it in your eyes when you act like that
You actin shy, why you act like that?
Light it up so I hold shit back
Man you got me trippin on you
I see it in your eyes when you act like that
No compromise when you act like that
Light it up so I hold shit back
Now I smoke till my lungs sore
It ain’t summer no more
No more
No more
No more

love language

I don’t care if your make up ain’t done
I said we gotta run like five times
And don’t start
Just do it in the car
I said we’re running on my time
Then you lose your shit
I flip through pages
I can’t read this shit
But I probably staged it
And it’ll get easier
When I get famous
Anything that you want
Just say it
She said that that’s not my love language
Sitting on the edge
Edge of paradise
Why the hell you sittin’ on the other side?
Like don’t you wanna go get your
Money right?
Let’s Skip them fun and games
Put that to the side
You know I wanna make it
In the worst way
Whole damn reason that we argued
Last Thursday
Passion stems way back
Like back to my birthplace
So I’m gon’ have to miss a few dates
And some birthdays
The hustle is important
And she said it makes my vision “distorted”
And 2020 sent me into orbit
Scared take flight
So I bought her some Jordans
She told me
“That’s not my love language my love”
“Ive told you that’s not my love language”
“Like how come my presence is never enough?”
“You’ve been way too damn focused on famous”
“I’ve told that thats not my love language my love”
“I’ve told you that’s not my love language”
“I just want good communication my love”
“No I don’t give a damn about famous”
She told me “That’s not my love language”
I think she said that shit about 100 times,
I lost track somewhere around like 24, 25
I get so caught up I fail to recognize,
The little things I prolly should’ve underlined,
But you know I wanna make it
In the worst way
Lately my composures got
A little bit concerning
I won’t make excuses why I missed
Your brothers birthday
I can’t miss the opportunities
I’ve been deserving
I really can’t afford it
And she said it makes my vision “distorted”
But the hustle gonna send me into orbit
If I make it It’s anything
You want just name it
She said that
“That’s not my love language my love”
“Ive told you that’s not my love language”
“Like how come my presence is never enough?”
“You’ve been way too damn focused on famous”
She told me that’s not my love language
And she’s got feelings that she might lose
And she don’t really owe me none
And I got sum’ I’m tryna prove
I’m talkin’ 2021
And She said “Baby what’s the move?”
I said “just wait a couple months”
And I hope she don’t make me choose
She told me
“That’s not my love language my love”
“Told you that’s not my love language”
“Like how come it’s every single day you’ve just been”
“Way too damn concentrated on this famous”
“I’ve told you
That’s not my love language my love
Ive told you
That’s not my love language
Like how come my presence is never enough?
You’ve been way too damn focused on famous
I’ve told you
That’s not my love language my love
I’ve told you
That’s not my love language
I just want good communication my love
No I don’t give a damn about famous
Yeah, she told me thats not my love language

mind race
02:32
|

My mind plays tricks on me
saying things that I don't want to hear
And life gets so deafening
Its got me covering up both my ears
Like you don't belong here
And what makes you special
You know you can't stay here
It's not residential
I flip through the pages
Don't find none of it helpful
But my mind keeps on racin' racin'
Hurry up you're gonna be late
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in
And don't you wanna be great
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in
I don't want second first place
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in
And you can't win this mind race
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in
(I ain't gonna say it's over)
Life isn't guaranteed
But somehow I still swim in all my fear
It's all insecurities
They break me down so they can hold me near
Like what is your purpose
And what makes you special
And you don't deserve this, you don't deserve this
You're not presidential, you're not presidential
I flip through the pages and it don't seem too helpful
But my mind keeps on racin', racin'
Hurry up you're gonna be late
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in
(It's over, be over, I ain't gon' let it be over)
And don't you wanna be great
(Just gon' do it again)
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in
(I ain't gonna say it's over, I don't want it to be over, I ain't never gon' get over)
I don't want second first place
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in
And you can't win this mind race
It's all in you're head, It's all in you're head, It's all in your head,
It's all in your head

woke af

Lately I’ve been feelin’ stressed
Way too focused on progression
My girl said you should get some rest
But I never learn my lesson
It all gets bottled in my chest
When I hear all the commotion
Now I really can’t control this
Urge to fix whatever’s broken
And I’m way too focused on opinions
Never took notice to my privilege
Now I’m Losing my mind
Like I’m supposed to
And I could give up
That’s what most do
No.
I watched the pressure build then I broke down
I Heard some things that make me wanna go now
Now I’m way too woke for my hometown
I’m Way too woke for my hometown
And all them show true colors when it goes down
Familiar faces turned to I don’t know how
How I got too woke for my hometown
I got too woke for my hometown
I see some things I can’t digest
I feel sick to my stomach
The things they mumble under breathes
But won’t go sayin out in public
Its got me clenching up my fists
I wanna send these cowards fuckin’ runnin’
But I’m sick off all the bull shit
Sick of being frozen
Too scared to start commotion
I’m sick of being worried bout opinions
I’m Tryna do my best to make a difference
But I’m losing my mind like I’m supposed to
And I could give up that’s what most do
FUCK
I Watched the pressure build then I broke down
I Heard some things that make me wanna go now
Now I’m way too woke for my hometown
I’m Way too woke for my hometown
And all them show true colors when it goes down
Familiar faces turn to I don’t know how
How I got too woke for my hometown
I got too woke for my hometown
For my hometown
I hope I’m not the only one
Only one, only one, one
The only one, only one, only one
I hope I’m not the only one.

rock bottom

I just had to go cut like all my ties
Just to compromise
All the weight I’m haulin’
Push me to the edge one too many times
Thought that I could fly
Don’t you see me fallin’
Did some things that really cut me up inside
Swear I never cried
Like the way I’m bawlin’
Get back to my feet reach the other side
Make it in due time
Don’t you see me crawlin’
I don’t like Hennessy
Makes me do things I don’t condone
Too much energy
Wasted on things I can’t control
Fuck the jealousy
That high school shit is getting old
Yeah I’d rather be
Back in my bed leave me alone
Back then I was 19
Don’t hit on my girlfriend
Just say you don’t like me
Why
Why Did you even invite me
You say you’re my best friend
But you’re just a hype
I just had to go cut like all my ties
Just to compromise
All the weight I’m haulin’
Push me to the edge one too many times
Thought that I could fly
Don’t you see me fallin’
Did some things that really cut me up inside
Swear I never cried
Like the way I’m bawlin’
Get back to my feet reach the other side
Make it due time
Don’t you see me crawlin’
Why,
Why did these years go by so fast
And I’ve made some new renovations
So I won’t even get mad
I’m no longer that kid from the basement
Back then I was 19
Don’t fuck with my girlfriend
Just say you don’t like me
Why
I don’t like it here
Why did you even invite me
If you got a problem
Then you could just fight me
Now I just had to go cut like all my ties
Just to compromise
All the weight I’m haulin’
Push me to the edge one too many times
Thought that I could fly
Don’t you see me fallin’
Did some things that really cut me up inside
Swear I never cried
Like the way I’m bawlin’
Get back to my feet reach the other side
Make it due time
Don’t you see me crawlin’
And I drank
Way too much Hennessy
I did some things I don’t condone
Got this energy
I don’t any could control
Stuck in jealousy
And I can’t find my way back home
Get away from me
I’m in my head leave me alone

caffeine
03:10
|

I got way too much caffeine runnin' through my bloodstream
Yeah I feel like no one could even touch me
They could try but they better be feeling lucky
They don’t want these problems I can’t solve
No I ain’t gettin' enough sleep
But I feel like no one could even judge me
They could try but it’d just make them look ugly
I’m sayin what’s the move
Gotta figure this out
These demons circle over my head like vultures
Tell me what to do
But I won’t give in to the culture
Of just saying that we’re doomed
Cause everybody found out that the world is just seconds away from broken
That ain’t news
You just see it more as you’re gettin' older
Yeah I run and I hide till no one can find me
They tell me give it some time
That We gon' be fine
But I’m sick of these hypees
And I just wanna rewind
And take some more time
Then Keep it beside me
So maybe I could refine
But I know that it’s fine
I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be
I got way too much caffeine runnin' through my bloodstream
I feel like no one could even touch me
They could try but they better be feelin' lucky
They don’t want these problems I can’t solve them
No I ain’t getting enough sleep
Yeah I feel like no one could even judge me
They could try but it’d just make them look ugly
Yeah it’d just make you look real ugly
Mhm it’d just make em look real ugly
Lately I’ve been on the hunt
Gotta figure this out
But I didn’t grow up with enough culture
I’ve been on the run
But I still haven’t seen Forrest Gump yet
No
My brothers sayin that were done
Cause they just figured out that the world is tickin' down from an explosion
Our demons won
Got me wishing I was less soft spoken
Yeah I run and I hide
Till' no one can find me
They tell me give it some time
That We gon' be fine
But I’m sick of these hypees
And I just wanna rewind
And take some more time
Then Keep it beside me
So maybe I could refine
But I know that it’s fine
I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be
Yeah I got way too much caffeine runnin' through my blood stream
Yeah I feel like no one could even touch me
They could try but they better be feelin' lucky
They don’t want these problems I can’t solve
No I ain’t gettin enough sleep
Yeah I feel like no one could even judge me
They could try but it’d just make em look real ugly
It’d just make em look real ugly
Oh no no no no
Oh no no no no
Oh no no no ba da ba dum
Yeah it’d just make em look real ugly
Oh no no no no
Oh no no no no
Oh no no no ba da ba dumb
Yeah

no sleep

It’s way past 10
I gotta work at 4am
These melodies are telling me
“Don’t go to bed”
So I stay up
And work until like 3:10, F***
I stumble in
Tired as hell yeah I'm mumblin'
How I shouldn’t be here
They’re all convinced
I’m on something saying
“He’s off the shits”
But truth is I’m runnin' off no sleep
Skipped my whole chore list and groceries
Too busy doing my own thing
And everyone thinks that I’m crazy
But truth is that you just don’t
You. Don’t. Know. Me.
You. Don’t. Know. Me
You. Don’t. Know. Me.
People always say
You gotta go and find your way
Save up, Put money in a 401k
So when you can’t work you can pay
People always say
Don’t get lost in this corrupted world
Just go Get your
high school sweetheart and give her some kids,
Just to make them your world
But the truth is I’m runnin' off no sleep
Skipped my whole chore list and groceries
Too busy doing my own thing
Everyone thinks that I’m crazy
But truth is that you just don’t know
You. Don’t. Know. Me.
You. Don’t. Know. Me
You. Don’t. Know. Me.
You. Don’t. Know.
I’m tryin I’m tryin
but I get so lost everyday
I’ve contemplated all the thoughts
I don’t know what to make of it
And I hear all the expectations that they tell me
They said that I’d turn out okay
Just do this, and do that,
And Lose yourself along the way
Truth is I’m runnin' off no sleep
Skipped my whole chore list and groceries
Too busy doing my own thing
Thinks that I’m crazy
But truth is that you just don’t know
And truth is that you just don’t know
Truth is I’m runnin off no sleep
Skipped my whole chore list and groceries
Too busy doing my own thing,
Everyone thinks that I’m crazy
But truth is that you just don’t know
Im crazy
