[Verse 1]

I’m

Making plans to see my shadow

Hoping I don’t duck out

Thinking my luck’ll run out

My

Shaky hands play the piano

And have my man play the fucking drums

We don’t care if you think we’re bums

Roll the kush with my sticky thumbs

Tryna push down the shit

That’s been stuck in my cranium

Feeling so alien

Lately

I know they hate me son

Wanna take me down

Wanna stake me in my back

On my downtime

And I’m the crazy one?


[Verse 2]

Everything I do is on purpose

Everything you think you know

You thought was useful

But it is worthless

Look past my surface

Or don’t search for that on google

Why you so frugal with your mind

Hiding the jewels in your mine

You know they’re useful

But you’re not using your pupils right

Pushing it to the side

I was busy with do or die

So when the hookah died down

My hue and vibe drowned

Wanted to die

But my shoes are tied now

Don’t worry

Eyes still blurry

But what the fuck

Am I gonna do about that

I gotta move on to the next path

I got a tuner and a deck of pads

A can of tuna with some bread to match

I’m chill with that and raps

Eyes peeled to catch the traps

No shield just steadfast

These eels can’t get passed me

Coming in dead last

Humming my ten best songs

These prawns can’t break me

If I go long it’s a safety

You ain’t no Tom Brady

You know my mom helped shape me

And she’s no artist

You said you’d always see the great in me

But now you’re the farthest

Admittedly had some latency

In regards to being honest

I know I promised you shit

And then tarnished it

So now you’re unharnessed

How does it feel to be beyond the margin

But still a common ass kid

With some glass problems

You could just smash and demolish it

But you’re polishing that nonsense

Know what I’m sayin

Stop it

It’s obvious


[Verse 3]

Can you get what you want

And not ask for it

Can’t even act like savant

I’m so passed restoring

At least my past ain’t boring

I’m sorting through all the ash

To broadcast the story

I’m more than moving

Like a ball passed

And catch to score it

I’m seeing flashes like my path shorted

Fuck being fractured I’ll attach, morphing

I’m P-Tree actually warranted this time

Peace to Nino laughing

See more in the next life

Either way I’m happy

Recorded his sick lines

Wished he had a stage to spit em

But we was playing

The ether hey

We’ll see greener days

And crazy women

We’ll write screenplays

And people’ll pay for em

The evil will stay awoken

But we got game tokens

It’s only sprained not broken

Look what we gain from the spoken

So keep your spokes spinning

And peep the whole image

Can’t get ahold of this

Just keep on floating in it

You’ll free your boat flipped

And get back coasting in it

Cold and you’ll shiver

But shit

Flow with the river

And kid

Your soul will deliver you

Don’t let this bullshit get rid of you

Gotta be incredible

Before you regret it go

Before you know

You’ll be posted

In a quick check

Making minimal checks

As your typical best

While watching criminals

Get integers

You can’t even pronounce

And getting into your house

Is a miracle every time that you’re out

Don’t even doubt that shit

Just prove me wrong

And get up out that shit

So many mountains to flip

But many more clips

To click with

The fountain is rich

Unless you counting every sitch

As a bitch that you can’t switch

Which

Worsens it

Every memory hurts

When you thirst for it

Gotta learn to cherish it first

Before it is curtains, fin

Over, no go for it

Gotta learn to be bold

If you wanna be golden kid
