Lay burdens down
Intro
[Verse Loud]
Laid my burdens down/ use to be some baggage
I can't live a normal life/ I'm living above average
Use to have some darker ways/ something like a savage
Now I'm working on my craft/ you could call it practice
I know why the way/ that I'm living/ makes a k**ing
But I just want/ the perfect life/ you can have the fill in's
Adding up my wrongs and rights/ math is something sickening
Pa**ing up on certain highs/ I've never really fit in
Swerve
1-2-3-4/ and my word to god no ones perfect
1-2-3-4/ what's a life to live with no purpose
See we speaking to the ma**es/ I'm pleading my case
The only m**m that keep asking/ bout following fate
I want the throne and crown/ do I look out of place
I never fold to a bluff/ I hold up my face
Flow
I'm stumbling (4x) now
I'm falling (4x) down
I lay lay my burdens down
[Verse Loud]
Stories of a figure/ product of society
Just to see the picture/ had to forfeit nights of any sleep
Pa** up on a swisher/ backwood had to help me eat
Took a chance on myself/
Now they call me prodigy/
Pissing off my enemies/ they probably have some other plans
Could have fell for anything/ but I had to take a stand
People try to trick you/ like slaves from the motherland
Tell you what's right/ but never show they other hand
1-2/ I'm slightly relaxed/ remaining calm is a fact/
Success is my obsession
1-2/ haters get so confused/ tanks running on fumes/
It's all just perception
1-2/ and I've probably been thru/ what most people would view/
As life's contradictions
1-2/ but I will be on top/ my hands control the clock/
And this is my prediction
Flow
I'm stumbling (4x) now
I'm falling (4x) down
I lay lay my burdens down
[Verse Loud]
1-2/ I an*lyzed all the views/ picked roads that no one choosed
Called me an out cast/ cause I was one of the few
I painted my own path/ I walked it in nike shoes
I saw follow the leader/ that path I refused
My dol-Lars I choose/ my pen is my fuse
I won't be a black statistic/ I'm bending those rules
I won't criticize the people/ that called me a fool
I over came my demons/ my calm is my tool
Sitting here is drastic/
Had to get up on my feet/
I'm not over reacting/
Working while you still asleep/
I'm training to be captain/
Serving size is 1 of me/
You get your satisfaction/
Can your read the caption/
And I'm never slacking/
If you grow a backbone/
Then you'll always see some action/
If you trust your hands and head/
You might just have the pa**ion/
I just tell em hold your head/
People just old fashion/
Flow
I'm stumbling (4x) now
I'm falling (4x) down
I lay lay my burdens down
