I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes

And I remember back when people didn't know my name

And now their calling me their friend, oh how the tables changed

It's gotten to the point its numb its like its novocaine

Cause I don't know who's there for me and it's just not the same

And now I feel like I just gotta' keep on moving things

Cause if I stop then I'm an advocate on losing dreams

I tried my hand at finding love and all the normal things

But I ain't got it figured out no matter how it seems

To busy chasin' all these picture perfect beauty queens

When all I ever really wanted was in front of me

But I'm to stubborn to ever let myself be happy

Closing all my doors I rather be where they can't find me

A place where there's judgement and no suffering' lien'

The only place I know where I can live continue trying

All the restless nights, but yet I still continue grindin'

Im never giving up cause I already see me shinin'

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes

And I'm still healing from the stabs I taken to the back

It helped me learn about the different snakes up in the grass

I tried so hard to think of now and disregard the past

But yet it sculpted me into the person that I am

And I ain't shaking hands, no matter what they say

I rather do it on my own and start to pave the way

Cause people asking for advice they lookin' up to me

So every move I make you know I do it cautiously

And its so hard to only show the better side of me

Im only human so I find escape in poetry

I want a better life for me and all my family

I see it in my head I see the picture vividly

And I was never meant to spend my days up at a desk

Id rather risk it all so I can start to manifest

The vision that I had since I was just a little kid

Cause people lose their dreams but I feel like I never did

And all the expectations in this life you gotta' live

Won't really matter when you start to looking deep within

And if your feeling broken use your dreams as medicine

Cause trust me its the only path that you were meant to live

And anything inside this life you gotta' get it

And everybody's distant till they start to see you winning

But they don't see the work and all the time that you been givin'

They just see the product, not the moves that you been makin'

Cause I was just a shorty making beats up in the basement

Always feeling' crazy for the dreams that I was chasing

So anyone who loved me from the very very start

Just know I have a special place that's deep inside my heart

But I ain't gonna' lie and say I'm doing this for you

I do it for hard times and the struggles I been through

I do it just to shine a little light, a little proof

That if you're working hard then homie you can do it to

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your eyes, I can see it in your eyes
