[Intro]

It's like it's a beautiful thing, man

Like every second is an opportunity, you know?

Just whether you cash in on that, the window never closes

Look...

[Verse 1]

Wake up in the morning and I'm thankful that I'm still alive

Never complacent with this hunger that I feel inside

No swishers, no herb, when tryin' to fill our high

Not a man govern by urges but what I feel aside

Tryin' to learn something new, absorb it all in

That's what I do and I'm all in

Cause I'm comfortable in my own skin

I try to give you the truth, they looking at me like, "come again"

Once again, I'm a man with flaws

But understand it y'all: we all have things we can practise on

Yeah and I'm sure we've all been there

Time to prove there's more behind my words than thin air

The greatest award follows the hardest struggle

That's what I keep telling myself

So, excuse me if what you say gets ignored

I'm just focused on me and not everyone else... I'm sorry!

[Hook]

I can't see past my own nose

I know I have my own flaws

I can only see what's in front of me

Why they looking at me like, "what's been up with me?"

[Verse 2]

What's been up with me lately? I don't know

I'm just focused on beats, paving my own road

Yeah... I plan to stay in my own zone

No self examination – you won't grow

I take time out of every day, I focus on mistakes I made

Tryin' to grind out every way, cause life is a paper chase

I'm sick of running this hamster wheel

Thinking it'll all pay off one day

And fuck all this rapping skill

I'm in St. Johns going the wrong way down a one way

I feel like I'm in need of my homies

And everybody keeping me closely

But, obviously I owe an apology

To everybody thinking they know me... so, I'm sorry!

[Hook]

I can't see past my own nose

I know I have my own flaws

I can only see what's in front of me

Why they lookin' at me like, "What's been up with me?"

X2

[Verse 3]

So stuck in my own world but worst of all

I ain't tryin' to place hurt on y'all, nah...

If you know me then you learn my flaws

And I promise I'ma work on returning cause

I feel so bogged down

No job doesn't mean no roadblocks but he won't stop now

Oh God, he's just on his soapbox now

He's an fiend for attention and that won't stop now, either

Think of all the leisure time he has

It's greedy as what they redefine me as

Selfish? I can take that, awesome

But it's all gonna pay back in the long run

I'll hit you back ASAP, we can talk, we can catch up

Either show me less love or wish me best luck

Either way we can pick up where we left off

When everything is different, you should just know... I'm sorry!

[Hook]

I can't see past my own nose

I know I have my own flaws

I can only see what's in front of me

Why they looking at me like, "What's been up with me?"

X2

[Outro]

What's been up with me lately, man?

I do not know

I know it's time to prove there's more behind my words than thin air

Like I said...

And this is step one

*Hook repeats till end*
