[Verse 1] Always too shook to start I do not look the part, outside they frame (When I) decide to rhyme on stage and share these things that I can paint (I come) prepared for stares and glares that go as far as eyes can range And feel my spinal shake and pray, they see past what my titles say Anyways, inside my brain There's tidal waves, of primal rage, riptides of pain and rival games that try to sway and break my faith Make me feel SOME TYPE OF WAY Cried in shame and grinded late To find something that might equate Relate and see my side of things Raised in a place designed by fakes Where golden gates reside by lakes At private school was shy and lame That's what they'd say, no high or drink I just used the sky as aim And prayed to god id fly away Be guided straight Out of gas, running fast no don't apply my brakes! Please don't make my flight delayed I could die on any day Lucky doctor said I had a tumor, was benign by 8 Or 14 forgot my age Point is got no time to waste My lion heart was bound to break But now they hear my lion sing! My Momma said no time awaits Can't hesitate, or try to blame The things you hate, must fight the pain And drive insane, through night and day To make it to your time and fate So many questions to ask God Sincerely signed my name [Hook] Looked at the world, from through my eyes I, search inside and I cannot compromise for The answers that they give me, cuz Ain't no lies ever gon give me what I want still asking Why [Verse 2] Moving too fast I question, complicate, then fluctuate Between too many paths, don't want to crash, I need to pump my brakes Take me back to younger days, a 38 above my waist When honey glazed, and bu*ter tastes, kept me away from underweight Fo' I hit my junkie phase, druggie ways, my dungeon days Blazing blunts of skunk and shake, chase and pay for another eighth Another strain, stuck in space, munchies and some tummy aches It numbs my pain, corrupts my brain, but I wouldn't trade a slump in grades For anything Cuz it kept me from being someone vain What I gained was something strange A heart free from clubs and spades No diamonds on my neck yet play the game like I can trump they ace Confront my snakes, the ones that hate I'm real, that beats a hundred fakes So jump on board, jump on my train Fo' I'm gone and on my way And they say I'm long n changed Forgot the Lord and all his praise Forgot my home and gone extinct Another Drake, just cut and paste November's very own, various flows But waiting on my break I heard some say I overthink Cuz I wonder things, and flood my gates Well I like to think they under-think I'll hunt with ink, till' I'm drawing blanks I'm on a drug, some call it Faith Still have questions to ask God Sincerely signed my name [Hook] Looked at the world, from through my eyes I, search inside and I cannot compromise for The answers that they give me, cuz Ain't no lies ever gon give me what I want still asking Why
