Wasting time checking my DMs
New Year, but New me isn't what I'm seeing
Task dodging persists
Folks gassing me in my inbox. I forgot they exist
Their compliments remind me of how they thought I should quit
Poppin their lips
When I was cracking books and they were rapping songs they thought would be hits
Saying none of them worked out would be too heavy handed
(Pause) I think you understand me
They see the tour photos and crowds and think I'm balling now
They don't know my bank account has bottomed out
Was financially stable and then I quit the job
Didn't stop and my budgeting is the problem now
They don't know that every show dollar I'm running through it
Catching up on bills that stacked when I first tried to run the music
Testing patience of a couple homies. I owe money to em
On the Book people posting happy thoughts. Status all attesting to a
Resolution
Mine is always the same. Make my best improvements
Been consistent but tryna improve my execution
Be undeniable. But don't let them detect the movements
The homies always ask me bout my resolutions
Generation with the saddest station
I ignore the accusations
If being entitled is working tirelessly to get ahead, that's a jab I'm taking
They all lack imagination
They try to talk to me with no interest in conversations
I don't need reminders about the 80s and funds you saved then
I'm 5 years late embracing the path I should've taken
A while ago
Following advice that you elders gave me
Say that you're proud of me. Please know I appreciate it
I'm scratching off bucket list items in my 20s
I doubted it 5 years ago and exes caught me running
Chided me for evading the future they knew was coming
Pride is evil. It maybe consumed me, then it cast asunder
Every inhibition. I replaced it with vision, The best solution
You Elders taught me fear of risk, so I reject what you did
Look, fretting's useless
I'll do it now. I won't be getting used to
Your questions on
Resolutions
Mine is always the same. Make my best improvements
Been consistent but tryna improve my execution
Be undeniable. But don't let them detect the movements
I've watched my elders fail at trying to keep their resolutions
People say "This is my year"
Two weeks later, motivation disappears
It's hard to conceive
What folks want to achieve
Can't believe what I see
When I'm scrolling through my feed
But proceed
Though I will not follow
False promises make a ho seem hollow
Tomorrow is a new day, you say
But you drive the same way
Don't play
Cause you hate
The escape
That is working toward
A bigger plan than what he or she or they say
I'm getting bored
Whispers sounding all the same
Yet again we're getting trapped with the same shit
Looking left and right instead of what's in front of us
In a never ending cycle back
Talk smack
And drama
You can't break it but you wanna
No
You can't break it but you wanna
No
Resolutions
Mine is always the same. Make my best improvements
Been consistent but tryna improve my execution
Be undeniable. But don't let them detect the movements
Constant elevation is the only resolution
