Distant.

Now my

Sword swinging

Directions and ear ringing

Inflection upon voices

Hoarse and non-important

I’m lord praying, but figured

He's non existent

Dismiss belief

Church, I stay.. distant


[Verse 1]

Take me back to middle school

Put upon the armor for the first time

First lie, told my mom I'm honored

As the first guy, to never cut class

Skip school, diss rules, it's cool

How I'm acting, asking momma for the gift

Same question asking poppa, 3 o'clock is for the lift

How was school? what you learned today?

“I took a lighter, burned his face.”

Growing pains inside my brain

I never told my family

Computer science major-rapper

Grown-up as the man you see

Manuscript was empty

Wrote this shit in google docs

And I’m compiling all arrays...

What’s the code to kick rocks?

Split profit, with my band members

Seeding from our damn ventures

JJ got his hand severed

Crazy fans


[Hook]


[Verse 2]

That's what really happened

Spewing lies

They from the captain

Of the ship

It's sinking slowly

Facing death

You turning holy, huh?

While reciting scripture

Look through verses for encryption

And the chapter filled with symptoms

Feel your soul like ravioli

I’m..out the box, unusual

My fate is pharmaceutical

And soon I'll see the silence

Provided by all your funerals

There's not a casket

Cubicles

It's suitable to feed a fool

But honestly, it's hard to see

You're beautiful exceeding school

Why can't you be patient?

Be a doctor, get some patients

Know if I can, you can make it

Pass your classes, graduation

(Uhh)

"Well my class is vacant

Ain't no teacher for debating

See I'm seeking greater knowledge

Nigga fuck a piece of paper"
