[Verse 1 : Crowded Places]
It's a beautiful day outside
But I'd rather stay in and contemplate
And regulate, everything that's failed as of late
I peer into the eyes of my friends and I see the struggle
I see the problem magnify in the rubble
They also reflect me
And everything we hate to be
Yet we can't run from it
It's the fact of knowing no matter how hard we try we still succumb
We still are irresponsible and numb
And time makes it worse
I wanna speak my mind, but it's been shut so long
Once opened I'm afraid it'll burst
Like a Uzi shot from a baby it's just innocent trauma
If you knew me you would listen no drama
And if you see my heart please take it
That's not something everyone is shown, I don't fake it
So don't break it, don't take advantage
Just please bandage all your mistakes so you can move on
You don't have to suffer for what used to go on
When hope is everlasting as long as you belong
Stay in that circle of joy so you remain strong
Cuz how can you feel genuine compa**ion alone
When looking to find your own way it doesn't take long
Because you're going at what you wanted anyways
But you're better than laziness on a bad day
[Hook: Crowded Places]
I'm calling out to a lost state of mind
I'm calling out to who's mine
I'm calling out to a lost state of mind
I'm calling out to who's mine
[Verse 2: Crowded Places]
We don't see what takes too much effort in our eyes
And that's how far we've been desensitized and burrowed
The motto is work for nothing and expect the world
I feel down when I think about these things
But it's hidden like an adulterer wedding ring
Soaking in a bed of shame
Pain all in my pillow as I pray
And ask for guidance for you and me to take the right steps
And the proper moves to make, it'll be ok
That's what I keep saying
I gotta be strong for any trail I may leave
Because you never know who's following your lead
You never know what words will motivate someone else
You never know what hurt you just helped
Man, the sun is bright gotta shut my blinds
Wow, the sun is glorious
[Hook: Crowded Places]
[Verse 3: Crowded Places]
Why am I sitting her thinking about what's wrong when the sky shows what right
Can't hardly appreciate what good I have when what I want is my only sight
I need to go outside
And enjoy this day of life
You might think this is unfair
Yeah you might think my dice is weighted
Cuz I leave you, leaving the sedated
Leave you feeling sedated
Think my dice is weighted
Yeah you are my patient but, wait, you ain't sick
I think I'm heated
Now cuz I spit my first verse on the track
The cypher going harder than track races
Yeah I saw black people
Running fast that mileage
That's, that's Usain Boltage
Usain Boltage
Boltage going in like voltage
Yeah the Colts and Andrew luck
But I don't got no luck
I'm all fortunate
(Ohhh this is over)
