[Verse 1] As I sit back staring at the ceiling Exploring God's mind tryna achieve the feeling Holograms of life surpa** dreaming Escape is trife in a life of high scheming Most n***as see robbing and stealing A nice shortcut to living amongst demons And when the red and blue lights start beaming Your heart starts beating, your freedom is leaking Stress levels peaking, my drug use is frequent Dip in black sizzurp never bother to freak them Candy in the cup cause a n***a tryna slow down Used to smoke trees graduated to that blow now You n***as gookin if you think I'm gonna hold down You fertilise hatred your a** get mowed down Y'all n***as gay like the boyband O-Town I'm so low cold with the flow so profound [Hook x2] I can see past the present The eyes don't compare to the mind mind I live my life unrestricted by time In the world that's infected by crime I arise from the grime I align for a sight with the signs [Verse 2] Astro the magnificent Is so proficient with breaking down barriers Buddha and bad b**hes This gift was bestowed upon me in the womb As an infant I lay in my crib singing tunes Said my first word, "Light" at the age of one A precursor to the shine of which was to come The Gift of Gab seems to be dripping from my tongue The way I captivate the minds of the old and young A n***a fresh, a n***a fly, a n***a real Cold as steel and I never cry I sense p**y in your heart then I sever ties We intercede with the greed that consume our lives No wives, just b**hes in this nightlife Squeezing coke sacks searching for the right white They say life's what you make it in hindsight When it's the other way around, you know you're blind right? [Hook x2] I can see past the present The eyes don't compare to the mind I live my life unrestricted by time In the world that's infected by crime I arise from the grime I align for a sight with the signs
