(Pieces)


[Verse 1]

I’m on a mission, God

Some say impossible

But, I am possible is all I see

When you have fallen to the pits, it’s unlikely

You stay long, reaching heights strong, with all might, E

See

But it’s harder to feel that with a cushion

Gravitational pulls are resistant to my pushing

On top of everybody’s expectations

Whether it’s greatness or since I’m young, to be complacent

They see stability, I see a barrier

I’m tryna bury her

Fuck the feelings and dealings of being fancier

They tryna carry her

When nothing’s left to worry ‘bout

You see what’s scarier

And for me, that’s never succeeding

And I ain’t referring to me ever getting on knees, and

Not to mention day ones looking for they ones

Times that by the hundreds, it’s fuck the world ‘til they day comes

It’s my fault for being a giver

Not considering in need, I would never get a sliver

When the broken becomes the fixer

Keeping the frame and letting them get the picture

Constant worries of who gon’ have my back

And who’s just looking to get a stack

‘Cause I’m

Levitating

Waiting for the day I blow up like I’m detonating

Tell me will that day be exciting or really devastating?


[Hook]

This life ain’t all peaches

It’s like glass, I’m just giving you the pieces

Transparent, look and reflect, no choice but to get warm

Heated under pressure, no choice but to take form

So fragile, too many fragments lost in the shatter

Remaining solid, but never feeling like you matter

Just madder

Rough on the edges, they dropping us hard

Swept up all the pieces

Left us with nothing but shards


[Verse 2]

The time is flying

I’m seeing familiar moods

The generational cycles and tarnished silver spoons

I’m oxidized from drowning in all those killer ‘soons

Forcing myself up for air and it’s a different fume

See, I’m learning how to breathe again, Toni

I see the beginning, can’t help it that you see the end, homie

Where I was, man, it used to be lonely, ‘til I decluttered my mind, got on my grind, now this lonely’s feeling real homey, homie

Never easier, it’s just I’m getting better

Play my songs, it won’t be long before you see the treasure

There’s life in the music, and music is lit

So when you roll with the punches, everything is a hit

‘Cause I was

Searching for blessings to stunt on niggas deceiving

Learning the lessons to realize I needed healing

What a feeling

When every burden you had’s being lost

Epiphanies are just coming to keep you charged

Up

Now I gotta get it, no time to be a loser

Early bird gets the worm, I’ll be the rooster, the future

While these niggas remain in the past

Worried ‘bout where I used to be, ‘cause that’s where they still at

That’s when I’ll choose to chill and spark the highs

‘Cause nothing lasts forever, not even the darkest times

That’s when I’ll choose to chill and spark the highs

‘Cause nothing lasts forever, not even the darkest times

But


[Hook]

This life ain't all peaches

It's like glass, I'm just giving you the pieces
