Do It Alone - Intellectual

Verse 1:

Trying not to get stuck in my ways, can't live life on a treadmill just running in place

In desperate need for a change, Because everyday feel like one of them days

Still I keep my head up on straight, 'cause it's mind over matter that's how I maintain

With everything that's on my brain, it's the music that keeps me from going insane

Tryna cope with losses, I just lost my Auntie back in August

I been through a lot I'm still walkin', I done grew a lot I'm still evolving

Though I'm steady getting through college, certain times I've thought about droppin'

Workin the same old job got me exhausted, I think my spirit needs some recharging

Had a lot of rainy days no raincoat, I been out and about but I stay low

Hard not to lose sight of the main goal, when everybody try to tell you where you can't go

Been a lonely path, ever since my OG Moe Beats passed

So many tears I was holding back, Thought it'd be a downhill slope from that

But every single day been an uphill battle, dodgin' all the snakes in the fields where they rattle

Calculated steps when my shoes on gravel, I just hit the booth, let the truth unravel

And everything coming from the heart, I make light of all my thoughts coming from the dark

Brighter days ahead know they comin' from afar, and I know the world a stage I'm just here to play my part

Hook:

God on my side I can't do it alone, it's way too hard to get through it alone

Just let me be 'cause I'm too in the zone, just let me be I'm too in the zone

No passenger I'm just cruising alone, me and this road I'm just cruising alone

Still on a journey just moving alone, still on a journey just moving alone

God on my side I can't do it alone, it's way too hard to get through it alone

Just let me be 'cause I'm too in the zone, just let me be I'm too in the zone

No passenger I'm just cruising alone, me and this road I'm just cruising alone

Still on a journey just moving alone, still on a journey just moving alone

Verse 2:

I know my family got faith in me, I know my family pray for me

I stay on the go no breaks for me, 'cause ain't nobody gonna wait for me

These blessings they coming from somewhere, as soon as I feel like no ones there

My city ain't got too much love there, better off keeping my distance from there

Tell me how can I fly? With the weight of the world on my wings

Every year it gets harder to rise, but I'm still getting closer it seems

I'm hoping it's not an illusion, cuz shit feel like it ain't been movin'

I'm not hear to make no excuses, patience my only solution

Everything been goin kinda slow, opportunities ain't been knockin' tho

I kick down the door if they lock it tho, I gotta keep runnin' no stop and go

So I set my target then lock and load, 'cause I gotta have it like Watch the Throne

And my main objective is hurdle the obstacles and overcome the impossible

See I been on a mission but it's bigger now, got dreams that are in need of living out

Focused on the bigger picture now, made some minor changes things is different now

I'm only in my 20s but I wish I had it all figured out

Need to stay calm and stop trippin' out, nothing's been the same it's just different now
