[Verse]

Yeah, yeah

No tell me what’s happenin when you step inside my skin

Let’s switch it up for a day, and lemme know if you win

It’s funny, I wouldn’t wanna be you and you wouldn’t wanna be me

We gotta pay our own dues and chase our own dreams

Nightmares up in everyone’s head, yeah

No all the night terrors got you waking up dead

No the phantoms can’t hang but they do like to float, yeah

And you’ll float too, if you try to get your boat, so

Imma get my bag and I’ll just leave it at that

Man I’m working til “I want” turns into “I have”

Yeah I’m working till I’m proud of every melody and rap

Pay attention to the order there’s a lesson in that

I’m tryna learn all of those so I can know that I’m grown

Way before I propose and make somebody my home, yeah

Cause right now I ain’t trust myself with fame and the road

Cause see I know exactly who I am at night, alone

I was a real good kid, but then that kid grew up

Teardrops and balloons, I was just moving down and up

Back and forth, back and forth, yeah, I just keep going

Back and forth, back and forth, I’ll be better in the morning

With the sunshine on my face and my fingertips

Yeah I’m praying while I’m working that my shadow self won’t linger

It’s important that I got him but I gotta give him limits

Cause otherwise I know that he gon’ ruin my business

And we can’t have that, I’m too important, in fact

No I don’t think that I’ll cap with 2034 raps, yeah

No it’s a long story so you’ll have to run it back

The moment he leaves Tutera with a brand new tat, no

Yo gimme twelve years and it’ll start to make sense, yeah

And gimme ten days and I’ll better my best

No this for sure ain’t it, cause I’m just tryna write and spit

Pay attention to the mix, it ain’t my time to make hits, yeah

I gotta get to work now, i’m working so much I’m burnt out

I’m burning what I am learning so I can see what’ll turn me

Into the man that I think I need to be for myself, yeah

Or is it for her? man it’s really hard to tell
