Verse 1

Can everyone just breathe for a minute

I just wasn't me for a minute

People coming if I leave for a minute

Giving up the deeds to the kingdom

If it wasn't for them I wouldn't be in the system

Id be changing speeds when im in it

Life becomes a breeze when im different

Zooming by the trees looking vivid

Drifting every street for a instant

Other words my drive is deep into the distance

No I won't give up the keys to the engine

All thr signs I never read when im shifting

Gears me for means that im hitting

While I live the dream that I drift in

Guess il stay asleep while the wheel is spinning

In the seat that I sit in driving till you rip my ticket

Verse 2

Your work never goes unseen for a minute

I had to change my plead for a minute

I promise to be me for the finish

Rappers think im weak this is business

Everytime I speak you have wished it

I throw the kitchen sink you do the dishes

The dirty work is free for the wisdom

Down the drain is green bad decisions

On a plate with cheese no assistance

Water down the greed thats a given

Down there is the fiends where they living

Uprising is creed all amongst the women

They really set the scene signing these petitions

Whos pulling all the strings cut off the additions

Hindsight always keen when the mindset competion

Blindness reings supreme when the rebellion never listens and they see

Verse 3

Enough of the spitting like that

Switiching it up and not giving it back

Rapping it up like I live in the lab

Ripping it up like im giving the gab

This giving is christmas can't fit in my lap

This chip on my shoulder is killin the moment

The wishlist is vicious man its so naughty just act like a body

And get in the bag

Theres nothing to hid im one of a kind

Just numb in the mind in love with the climb

Im flipping the ladder can make it go backwards

And maybe its something devine

Maybe the mummy just died maybe im coming alive

Maybe just biting the dust is igniting the lust

And judging my heart is same as touching my eyes

If I stay inside my hands tied so im bloodshot for the undead

And every eye drop means the guns cocked for the bloodshed

The bigger the trigger the bigger my finger

Im splitting the difference the quicker I hit it

Man its uplifting the shadows be dimming

Till I drive off in the sunset
