After Hours - Intellectual

(Verse 1: Taaru)

How do you survive in this environment?

I've tried lookin' for advice but it ain't helpin'

Do I sit and lie even if what I say

Doesn't apply to my life in any way

Should I act tough or should I act soft?

Should I up moral values or should I just be lost

If I repeat the same mistakes that I made in last grade

Then I'll be afraid of the raid that's to come

If I pass away right now will there be another side

Or will they just let me rot and die?

Will they just close casket look at me and say bye bye?

What am I gonna do on latеr in my life?

Is free will a thing or am I just a puppet?

Will I do anything beforе I kick the bucket?

They said I was promising but right now I feel nothin'

The grades are done man ashamed so I don't know if I have a chance

They said you can be a rapper without school

But that ain't the plan ain't tryna be successful

Or make money not a chance

Would life be boring or better when you're rich?

Or are you just a vessel that someone can flick like a light switch?

(Hook)

See me at the club after hours

We still underground so look down here

And I'm still not fuckin' with the cameras

They wanna see our shows but can't stand us

Been on shit, do or die

This might be suicide

Focus in, who's inside

Focus on us tonight

Focus on our free will

Stand there be chill

Imma die on this hill

With all the mics that I've killed

(Bridge)

Ridin' down the road

I'm almost home

Lightning flashes

And I'm layin' prone

We're all destined

To meet our fate

So why do we wait?

Why do we wait?

(Verse 2)

Comin' to terms with life

Before it leaves my eye

Before it zooms right by

Before I run out of time

I'm afraid of reality

'Cause death doesn't seem real to me

That's why I don't wanna wait

That's why I've been late

They say cowards die many times before their deaths

That's why I'm striving to be the best

That's why you've been at your desk

Wonderin' when can you get some rest

Wonderin' when this shit'll pay off

Wondering when you'll take off

Take off, time to go

Take off, down the road

It's time, for your rise

It's time for your life

What do I say when I'm on stage

And people want me to leave?

What do I say when I'm not okay?

But they won't leave me be?

Chased fame for long enough

Chased it time to give up

Done writin' I'm out of luck

It's time I'm leavin' look

I'm comin' down from my high

Say goodbye to that life

I'll never be the same

So fuck chasing fame
