Tae Beast - Safe lyrics

Verse 1: Say what you wanna say, I say what I mean That I'll be the best you've ever seen No normal routine, as I arrived on the scene I was out to get cream Might sound co*ky but these visions got me living rocky False hopes and pessimism tend to f**ing stalk me Full of ambition, and with my own permission I'm out to complete my mission and get recognition Bright yesterday, vague today, blurry tomorrow Grandfather was a good man that'll be a hard act to follow And guilt is kinda hard to swallow But you can't blame others for your sorrow Sometimes I see my autumn more that I can see my reign Too many job options I can't seem to find my lane Fans who got faith in me give me a little bit of fame That's when I get a feeling that something's about to change Something good, something for this novelist to get him out of this apocalypse of war, hate, judgement, portrayal and all the politics I don't wanna be apart of it but I can't just call it quits Negative thoughts, feelings and attitudes All the things that make people mad at you That's why I'm hesitant in person but I come alive in the booth Speaking what I see, hear, feel and what I think is true Chorus: I can feel the limelight I just need to play my cards right I wonder what it's all like Give me direction I need it now I don't know what to do, what to say What's my purpose in the world I'm just tryna play it safe Gotta make it every night and every day Afraid of slipping up so I just wanna play it safe Verse 2: The clouds could not hold it in any longer I think we gonna have torrential rain Cry cause we vanity slaves Wearing gold chains On frozen tracks but let's get on the railroad of John Coltrane She on a healthy diet while she tryna watch her diet Worrying about all the karats that she got in her diamond She hungry, she thirsty, she parched And all of this happened in the Month of March Her man be her financial plan Cause her father left and mama couldn't keep up So now she's a chattel for her n***a doing whatever pleases him and whatever teases him just to keep her feet up These scars are for others Imprinted on single mothers Salute to all the brothers Who still family lovers Nowhere else to go, nothing left say Degraded by her man to survive but she just playing it safe Chorus: She found the limelight She thought she played her cards right And all they do is fuss and fight Somebody give her direction she needs it now She doesn't know what to do, what to say How to make it on her own so she needs play it safe Gotta make it every night and every day Afraid of failing in the world so she has to play it safe Bridge: Trying to find my sanctum And resisting starting rebel anthems Living in a world where we all considered phantoms And they hold your optimism and pride for ransom So little peace, so much anger Too much grief in need of more laughter So many questions and not enough answers Chasing something but don't know what we're after
