My mama used to read me prayers before I slept at night
Then prayed again in the morning that God would get me right
At the same time, I thought a prayer could solve a messy lifeUntil I found that words alone can′t help you win the fight
This signified growth and a new state of mind
The principle of you getting yours and imma get mine
Minefields as I'm stepping through time
Anticipation and fear
These emotions combine
Ball up
And hit me straight in my spine
I′m falling
In and out confusion
You know life is an illusion but
Somehow some way you gotta make ya contribution
I feel electrocution
When I think of these rhyme schemes
I aint a Watts kid
But the pen filled with lightening
Headphones plugged in
Frequently typing
Trynna reach goal
That can seem so unlikely
But I'm watching how I fit
Like a Melrose hypebeast
Last puzzle piece
How I fit so nicely
I gotta do me
Do I care if you like me?
I'm heatin′ up
But my hearts still icy
I′m heatin' up my hearts still icy

Sometimes I wonder if they ever hear me
Y′all don't see it how I see it clearly
Things don′t always look how they appearing
Fake smile
Guess that I'm veneering

I′m either wondering or wandering
Daily I be pondering
If the music I keep conjuring
Is time I keep on squandering
Spoke to God
And said this verse is like an offering
He told me if I honor him
Then I will keep on prospering
At the age where life can look so imposing
Disposing of the past is like a door that ain't closing
Probably like the beat but please hear my words closely
Trynna move remotely is part of what really broke me
It's hard for me to trust when y′all be shadier than Oakley
But I ain′t the type
To walk around like people owe me
You really didn't know me
And that′s just fine
But then you reapproach a nigga
With them dumb ass lines
Time is precious
Almost as much as money
Fuck them Dark Days
I'll come out when its sunny
Niggas turned into bitches
And I find it very funny
Now they watching all my moves
Instead of out gettin money
Yeah
Yeah I′m shinin' yeah I′m glistening
They feeling all the viciousness
I'm hit with new predicaments
To you it's not significant
We just see it different
And everything I′m feeling my nigga
I′m fuckin sick of it
So I called into the distantness
Where there is no witnesses
Yeah I scream into the void kinda ignorant
Cuz yelling at my problems isn't fixing them
I′m trippin man

Sometimes I wonder if they ever hear me
Y'all don′t see it how I see it clearly
Things don't always look how they appearing
Fake smile
Guess that I′m veneering
