Lucid Dreams - Intellectual

[Verse: Young L3X]

Appreciate what you have is what they say

But I can’t appreciate the shit that comes my way

Why can’t I be jealous of someone that has more

But they tell me nah boy love yours

I don’t love the fact that I been though the struggle

Just get by, I had to pray, I had to hustle

My homie sold crack, kept the strap in the duffle

Gotta stay strapped, with the gat for the trouble

And I don’t see good times its all a mirage

And nobody’s perfect we all have flaws

If you act like you got it, you might get robbed

And when they clapping at you it’s not an applause

I want the happiness and joy that I see in others

So I suffer and I wonder, why the devil has to hoover

And why does bad happen to the good in my neighborhood

There ain’t no good in my neighborhood

[Chorus: Siera]

If the sun doesn’t shine

Does it take away the pain?

Would I ever win this game?

Is it me that is to blame?

And If the stars never shine

Do they ever fade away?

Would they ever call my name?

Would the earth still spin the same?

[Verse Two: Young L3X]

They won’t give me none

Feel like they owe me some

I should charge interest, I feel tremendous

So, stop depending on me to fail

All this weight on me, don’t wanna see a scale

I should keep the steal, I might need protection

And might confidence been lacking & I hate rejection

Yea I want the fame, but I hate attention

I ain't never been a square I don’t fit those dimensions

Its hard trynna keep the balance

Im trynna own a palace

Escape this hell hole, make it and get real doe

Yea I need it all in my bank

I want the funds in my account

I don’t want it if its blank

I been poverty stricken

My happiness missing

The way things going I feel like everyone hissing

Like everyone’s a snake to me

But I live my life dreaming

There’s no waking me
