[PHASE 1]
Sacrificing health for a little piece of mind
Telegraphing rhymes got me losing track of time
I'm not really sure if it'll pay off
But ion give a fuck, I'ma put it on the line
Kept low-key with the process
Just to pop off, stir noise on a release
You gon' have to put my pain on repeat
Bleed me for 32 seasons ‘cuz
[REFRAIN 1]
I was in Hell for the summer
And I told them devil fuckers that I died for nothing
I've been tryna keep my mind structured
But a plan gon' ruin the surprise of it
Sorry for the wait, I was hiding out
I was sorting through some strife just to write it down
Gon' consort with the pipe, I'm enlightened now
No distortions to fight when I'm vibing out
[PHASE 2]
But you can find me on a canvas, illustrating sadness
Heart on my sleeve, so I know you see the damage
And I know it's gon' heal, I don't peek beneath the bandage
I'm really resilient, lemme show you how I manage
I've been seeking truth, I've been meditating before I hit the booth
Always been brazen, but never lacking couth
Measure situations, so I know when to shoot
Still, I shake cages
[REFRAIN 2]
And I'm headed straight for the summit
And I know motherfuckers who gon' hate for nothing
I'm about to bring you all trouble
So you bitches better keep your eyes covered
Sorry for the wait, you thought I fell off?
I was tryna figure out a way to tell y'all
I ain't going anywhere till the bell tolls
I'm dedicated to the craft for the long haul, yuh, aye
