I don't need friends but I do need time
Time to find time when I can make more rhymes
To me time and rhymes don't always compromise
That's why I say the wrong things at the flip of a dime

Yeah

I try to find ways to win an external race but I only win dismay
Figure out ways just to keep to myself and stay in just one place
better to do that then to wake up in one piece
used to thinking death would ever give me peace

Get mad at every drop of the mouth
Spit shit then pop at the mouth throwing a huge cow
Entered a game thinking it was just a fun game
Now that I've come it's more than just fame
Truthfully it's about putting your life in lain and it's just more than enough to aim

I had to toughen up and hope my callouses would roughen up
Had to shut my mouth too afraid to start more stuff
It's like change that I went through and now I've had a breakthrough
Unleash the chains so i can finally break loose

It hurts to write something serious as this
Canal to canal I'm frustrated and I can't really flourish
Listening to "Beautiful" on replay because it's the only thing that's brightening my day
It's powerful and inspiring to know that
A man on drugs was willing to change for his fans

That takes a real man
Wish the world wouldn't interpret that as putting a gun to another man's head

Robbing him of his life while he was robbed back of humanity instead
It's been said and said; this world's fucked up I guess we keep on forgettin

We hear this trash everyday and want to get back to payback for the people we hate
According to the dad I never really had
Back in the day the only PayDay was a chocolate bar
He obviously had a payday because he had a new car but I guess I was a mistake because if I got in
I would leave it quite subpar

I keep trying and waiting then attempt contemplating
But when you're a child that shit's frustrating
I don't rap in perfect bars
That's just testimate to how different we are
Don't expect anyone to be adjacent to you
Don't place anyone adjacent to you
It's a displacement we choose
Think about it as not being in the same room

Even though I'm young life's not all fun
Made some dumb decisions just to end up headstrawn
I know my purpose isn't done but ever since I started this
I feel like I'm feeling the pain of everyone in pain
Tears in my eye making me feel ashamed
I want to reach others with passion and give a big FUCK YOU to fame
Ambitions all smothered by aggressions and ideal names
I'm not rapping with crutches which explains why my pain nudges
Lyricality is lame but I'm willing to stay in a game with one last life and one last leg off crutches
replacing it with my once lost conscience
taking back my joy, the Devil can have my grunting

I'm still mellow with a fresh new mindset
Coming out stronger than I once did
I'm still mellow with a fresh new mindset
I'm still mellow with a fresh new mindset.

"In my shoes, just to see
What's it like to be me
I'll be you, let's trade shoes
Just to see what'd it be like to
Feel your pain, you feel mine
Go inside each others minds
Just to see what we find
Look at shit through each other's eyes"
