[Verse 1]

Walk into the room, people asking whatchu doing

I say I've been in the studio, busy with the music

I've been going crazy, yeah I think I'm gonna lose it

Say that I should sleep, don't be acting stupid

I've been working, if you haven't heard it

Then you must be deaf, where's the surgeon

Oh I killed him with a beat, I wasn't certain

We was pretty close, but he's a burden

Never stopped it with the questions

Not to mention, he said I should deal with my emotions

What a notion, I gotta learn how to love my reflection

The depression, gotta find a way to end the tension

When I'm writing, the fact I can't achieve perfection

Got me fueling up aggression, cut the section

Start dissecting, open up my brain, you and me are not the same

If you weren't with me, when I needed your help

My name, should, never leave your mouth

I don't wanna hear a sound

Monsters underneath my bed, they've been breaking out

Been spending so much time, busy underground

Been stuck inside the lines, but we've been crawling out

Used to be a joke, but we're slowly rising now


[Hook]

Funny how they think, they understand me

I don't even know, I don't even know my own self

Funny how they hate me, I'm just being real

Saying what I feel, I'm just being real


[Verse 2]

We've been through this last week, I ain't gonna get sleep

All the demons in my room, they just never let me

Why you gotta test me, you don't understand me

Only time you hit my line, is to say my flow is nasty

Man I love this, being honest, we've been real from the start

We've been on it, we're committed making art, we are poets

Keep a note of it, you should know it, since the eighth grade

We were motivated, now we're dedicated, every painting

That we painted, turning back, like yeah we made it

Waiting for the day we make it

Imagined selling tickets, laughing back at the critics

Smiling back at who left us, who never saw our vision

I made some bad decisions, I prolly will, still make em

I don't feel hurt the same, that is just for the living

I've been dead for a minute, yeah we gave hell, a visit

I didn't like the service, I left, no early notice


[Hook]

Funny how they think, they understand me

I don't even know, I don't even know my own self

Funny how they hate me, I'm just being real

Saying what I feel, I'm just being real
