[Verse 1]
It's hard not to act fake in a world that thinks the word fake
Is the one to replace being real
For God's sake, can I get your take?
'Cause I'm in a place that's not feeling real
Tell me I'm not crazy, someone tell me that I'll be alright
I've been thinking daily and staying up all night
Something doesn't seem right but I live life
Without a fight unless the devil is in my sight
If so, then it's light out
Watch out for energy vampires
They don't come out when its bright out
I got not worries, I'm just trying walk the right route
I'm not in a hurry, but I still might shout
If you standing in my way as I'm commanding this escape
From this mental prison as I'm dancing with my fate
Withstanding all the hate and handling the weight
That's placed on my shoulders ever single fucking day
Anything is possible so when I think my thoughts
I think, on second thought, I think that I ought
To take a breather and stop trying to be a leader
A genuine believe doesn't gotta be a preacher
Anything is possible so when I think my thoughts
I think, on second thought, I think that I ought
To take a breather and stop trying to be a leader
A genuine believe doesn't gotta be a preacher
[Chorus x2]
Never doing wrong, I'm where I belong
Staying strong through this long journey, come along
Spread some love with me 'cause there's already plenty hate
Rather stay true to myself than be a fake any day
[Verse 2]
I got so much on my mind, so much emotion in my heart
I find that I've been fine and going with the motion since the start
Since 1992, never been blind to the truth
Been trying to find the signs but it's like trying to pull a tooth
'Cause sometimes I'm full of poop and let life pull me in a loop
Instead of calling it a truce, I continue to brew
Up a spiritual stew, harder than I've ever knew
I get ahead of myself and create my own queue
It could all be simple, upside down frowns are dimples
Instead of being air headed, I could be more nimble
Every wave comes from a ripple, every roof starts with a shingle
Everything big is formed up of something little
Some things you can't explain
Sometimes you can't take away pain
Life may not seem sunny now, but it can't always rain
There's a purpose for everything, that's why it's in existence
Know that everything can change in an instant
Everything is as it should be, nothing needs assistance
Sometimes doing too much can create resistance
Hop on your train of thought but don't get lost
Make sure you know your destination and know when to get off
Everything is as it should be, nothing needs assistance
Sometimes doing too much can create resistance
Hop on your train of thought but don't get lost
Make sure you know your destination and know when to get off
[Chorus x2]
Never doing wrong, I'm where I belong
Staying strong through this long journey, come along
Spread some love with me 'cause there's already plenty hate
Rather stay true to myself than be a fake any day
[Verse 3]
I'm connecting with those that are like minded
Searching for direciton and I might find it
If I stop projecting my shadow self, can't hide behind it
I'm respecting the light that I've felt, not getting blinded
I know the darkness too, dwell in it once in a while
Life throws a buncha blows, I take each punch and I smile
Life can get deep and if I plunge I know that I'll
Continue to follow my hunch and compile
All the info that I come across and experience I gain
I'll connect all of the dots while remaining the same
Just turning each page and trying to gauge how
To stay in my lane while these haters getting slain, mane
I'm at that age where I wanna make a difference
But I'm also at that stage where I feel indifferent
Like nothing would be different
If I showed my brilliance with persistence
Why is it always myself that is my biggest hindrance?
I know that I'll change a life, even if it's just my own
Someone's always on my side, I am not alone
I'm speaking my mind, the truth I won't withhold
Knowing that I'm doing what I'm supposedto
No matter what I'm told
I know that I'll change a life, even if it's just my own
Someone's always on my side, I am not alone
I'm speaking my mind, the truth I won't withhold
Knowing that I'm doing what I'm supposed to
No matter what I'm told
[Chorus]
Never doing wrong, I'm where I belong
Staying strong through this long journey, come along
Spread some love with me 'cause there's already plenty hate
Rather stay true to myself than be a fake any day
