[Intro: Logic]
My message, which is peace, love and positivity in my music
And that I stay grounded and that I am who I am and I don't pretend to be anything else
Be good, be kind-hearted, do your best to help others, follow your dreams, do whatever it takes
And don't tell yourself you can't because if you tell yourself you can't, you've already been defeated before you've started
[Verse 1: Progress]
I never shed a single tear ‘till I was 18
Caught up in the frenzy, caught up in the lucid dreams
Caught up in my head, caught up in the make-believe
Caught up in myself, looking for reality
Yeah, and I could try to make excuses
Looking for the reasons that I do it for the music
Looking for the pa**ion, asking, “Why do I do it?”
Find a reaction in my heart working through it
Uh, take inspiration from the greatest
So when I meet ‘em, they can tell me that I made it
As for the hating, there will be zero debating
Eyes on the prize, tryna' break my concentration
But they can't phase me, like a Jedi in the zone (I'm in the zone)
Meditating tryna' tune into the tone (into the tone)
On the radio, the frequency is gone (you see it's gone)
I'll bring it back like it's a soldier coming home (I'm coming home)
And fine-tune it so they never know it's lost (they know it's lost)
A price tag doesn't really tell the cost (don't tell the cost)
And authority does not make you the boss (you ain't the boss)
How many disses does it take to get across?
I'm sick of hearing all the drama and the hate
Lying media just tryna' fuel the flame
They feed off the publicity like parasites inside us
And turn around and tell us lies infected with the virus
So it spreads, like a wildfire
Don't get it twisted in all the barbed wire
Don't tell me twice because I heard it all the first time
The first line, the first rhyme, the worst time
You know that first line about the time I cried?
That was the last time I focused on the downside
This is my sermon, you heard it, I will testify
Look into the music and lose it as I will clarify
[Hook: The Weeknd]
Sidewalks saved my life
They don't ever lie
Sidewalks saved my life
They showed me all the signs
[Post-Hook: Daniel Wilson]
They don't let me down
But they lead me on
And they don't let me down
But they lead me on
And they lead me on
