[Verse 1]
They can hate, they don't wanna hear the music
But I'll shake the game, cause involuntary movements
Well I'm chasing fame, if it solves the weird confusion
That is day to day, forming bars is therapeutic
And my veins contain all of the substance I record
I can play the game, if they sub me in I'll score
But I take the blame, it is blunt I'm not a star
So I escape to space, take this blunt up to the stars
Can I change the pace, if I can't change the place
I would save the day but like to watch it waste away
And I'll never regret it, I swear to God like
One thing I learned in my life, is never trust your hindsight
Feel like my dad in 1982
Nineteen, recognized my talent tryna make a move
And his challenges I'm facing too
I'm way too dope, I swear this flow I channel should be pay-per-view
[Hook]
They don't love you like you thought, no
They never caught a glimpse of what you saw, so
Get smart or fall off
Get smart or fall off
Get smart or fall off
Get smart or fall off
[Verse 2]
Delusional hallucination, dooming though illuminating
Used to all that's beautiful, too elated, too complacent
When the mood will change, they lose control, stooping low
To stupid statements, trying to find a crucible to use in flaming
But the ice won't melt, the foolish all get super anxious
Bite their nails, 'til their cuticles are mutilated
Like for real, there's a cubicle for you to stay in
Your little office, better do what the boss says
A novice with knowledge that augments all very often
And I'd never sell out no matter who would sponsor the auction
Price is low with my backpack sh**, like stores when it's August
But I'll blow with this backpack sh**, like the bombing in Boston
All I know is this backpack sh**, all my thoughts center on it
Carry loads on my back, packed in a whole arsenal armed in
Order to show all the bandwagons just what loyalty warrants
Can hardly harness the hardships that harbor on my despondence
[Hook]
