[Chorus]

Fuck Kayze, what the fuck do you want

Why are you acting so woke

I can list em, you got many flaws

Your shadow, you don't even know

Yeah you want change

But you don't wanna see

The writing is up on the wall

Yeah you want fame

But you wanna believe

You are doing it all for the love


[Verse 1]

Fuck, shit, I see that you're right

I am no one to question a life

No one to ask for your morals

Or tell you what's right from wrong

Act like a hero but only in songs

Was giving them fear

When they needed hope

Had to make sure

That my shit was too dope

For a career

They said was a joke

My ego was bigger

My pride was small

I gotta prove I could do it all

Do I deserve it or am I too flawed

Should I just give up or try even harder

I am looking to you so tell me my lord

I cannot tell you cause that won't be right

Now is your moment you know it inside

You will find all the answers

You're searching tonight

Look in the mirror

Don't see what you like

You vision a city that's burning like hell

Only projects what you see in yourself

How will you fix it

You're part of the problem

You won't see no change

Till you change up your mind

You won't reach the place till you do it for them

Heaven in mind leads to heaven in life

There's no perfect way that you can really be

The voices they tell you tonight


[Chorus]

Fuck Kayze, what the fuck do you want

Why are you acting so woke

I can list em, you got many flaws

Your shadow, you don't even know

Yeah you want change

But you don't wanna see

The writing is up on the wall

Yeah you want fame

But you wanna believe

You are doing it all for the love


[Verse 2]

All for the love, I have love for the art

Industry cooked yeah it's filled with the sharks

I wanted to make it and be with the stars

They told me to fake it and sell up my heart

They looking for people to make catchy reels

But nothing is real yeah they do it for deals

To sell you their latest new sneaker and clothes

To make you believe you can get many hoes

I used to look at the world with this lens

Hating on people, they're playing pretend

The cycle of hate leads to start of the end

But part of my fate was to seek for revenge

How can I fix up this problem, you see

If I have become what I hated to see

My heart and my morals

I need to align

In darkness, I am blinded

It's all in my mind

I am just sharing the story untold

Dialectic and wise, yeah I need to be bold

I am ready to break up the cycle of hate

Yeah I am ready to change up the ways of my life

I see it all now

I am seeing some light at the end of the tunnel

Better not doubt

Yeah I learned from the struggle

I will stay true but

People are still gonna say


[Chorus]

Fuck Kayze, what the fuck do you want

Why are you acting so woke

I can list em, you got many flaws

Your shadow, you don't even know

Yeah you want change

But you don't wanna see

The writing is up on the wall

Yeah you want fame

But you wanna believe

You are doing it all for the love
