{intro: the blck sparrow}
I knew that someone was gonna be like, dude thank you for writing that
Who are- who are we making music for? we not making music for people to be like, aah dude that’s so dope and to feed our egos, (uhm) nah bruh. we writing music for the person who can not verbalize to someone, cause they’re met with the same response, (uhm) “ahh that’s so deep bro”, (uhm) that’s the world’s response to when someone tries to open up…
{verse 1}
I’ve been so afraid since i was a young child
I know y’all know thе rabbi or rabbi that always has a really big smile
Always willing to help еven if he makes a mess
I’ve always had the fear of failure in my chest
I’m quite the mess
Sometimes, i don’t even fit in the south
There in the 219, they could teach you what life’s about
Struggled that thinking straight cause i tried to stay in your circles
Told me i’m outta shape, then i square up trying to hurt you
Funny, i lack the words to ever state that i’m a rapper
Look at my lack of confidence, authoring every chapter
Lack of selfish display, i’m being selfish to self
Cause i hate it when someone say that i’m better than someone else
Maybe it's cause i’ve always heard someone better than me
I’m not looking for pity, don’t shed me a tear from stream
I’m just tryna inspire the youngin that couldn’t dream
And that youngin could’ve have been me, if i could build a time machine
Aye
{chorus}
(slow tide)
You don’t have to remain so
(come wave by)
I can’t change where you came from
(your light)
I can help if you let me
(my soul find)
Let me help set your mind free
(slow tide)
You can spark every fire
(come wave by)
Light up the night
A moon of the desires
(your light)
I can help if you let me
(my soul find)
Let me help set your mind free
{verse 2}
Its deep, i get it, too many bars on a song
But i would rather have you feel it, then just jumping along
Hear me out for a second, i’m not tryna be depressing
I’m tryna tell somebody that i can relate to stressing
I can relate to feeling like your life is being messed with
And everything that you do feels like the opposite of blessings
A lot of things we do feels like it takes the pain away
But all we really gotta do is give them love they never gave
Its cheesy and it’s wack
Not the best in the track
But if it can change a life, it’s a blessing
If a village raise a child, how can you grow on your own?
Identify your goliath and start throwing your stones
Tired of aiming higher, i’m looking beyond the throne
I’m thinking about the youngin that’s gon’ be here when i’m bones
I hope that he remembers i was scared at his age, but i told him that love is all and now his fears are overthrown
{chorus}
(slow tide)
You don’t have to remain so
(come wave by)
I can’t change where you came from
(your light)
I can help if you let me
(my soul find)
Let me help set your mind free
(slow tide)
You can spark every fire
(come wave by)
Light up the night
A moon of the desires
(your light)
I can help if you let me
(my soul find)
Let me help set your mind free
