[Verse 1: Alyssa Marie] They're in way too deep But the root of the issue is superficial Every diss they do is using a pistol to shoot a missile You official? Well I make the moves that don't miss you How you walk to the talk wearing shoes that don't fit you? They missed you Pa**ed 'em over, going back acting bolder Now we're older and they're talking faster but I'm laughing slower They're happy sober cause they're high on life But fail to mention what a bad trip that high's been like It's kind of nice This looking in perspective from outside the box I witness at a distance with a crooked grin, reflective of what could've been With such a satisfying pity Pretty sad, but that's the sh**ty side I've had to hide within me But I'm finished being red flagged, sick of flying half mast All this sh** they said one day that I'd look back and laugh at Yeah I'm still waiting for the humor in it I'm still sitting at my ending Patient for that new beginning [Hook: Alyssa Marie] I don't think that I'm the one I don't feel like I'm above 'em, I don't know what I'll become But what I do know, is when it's said and done It's more about the chase than the run I don't think that I'm the one I don't feel like I'm above 'em I don't know what I'll become But what I do know, is when it's said and done It's more about the chase than the run [Verse 2: Alyssa Marie] So let the record show I know it's not a simple "yes" or "no" They wrote a letter saying "let it go" And signed it X and O Bless the soul that hasn't sold it yet The one that's getting no respect But holds onto their morals with a slow success If it all Yes, I know the sh** I talk Never one to soften when externalizing inner thoughts But listen I'm giving y'all the vision I wish had then Back when I stood before a path that wasn't past tense But that's then This is now All I gotta figure out Is what f** that's supposed to mean, I think I'm fit to vouch And tell my story, though it's short it's gotta lot of lessons Beginnings and endings and blending of curse and blessing That together form experience Enough to relate to For anyone, create the need to follow where I take you Shift the love to hate then watch it cycle back, light to black Every type of past uniting through the slightest crack In wishing they could travel back and fix it Before that crack was shifted to a crumbled wall of fallen stacks of bricks It's the same sh** Different but synonymous and parallel The fact stress is carried well's A win and lose cause half the hell You're living through is overlooked, that's why I laugh Step back look at life like a joke I finally grasp Hoping while I pa** through existence I can turn a pa**ion to a living Without asking for a**istance [Hook: Alyssa Marie] I don't think that I'm the one I don't feel like I'm above 'em, I don't know what I'll become But what I do know, is when it's said and done It's more about the chase than the run I don't think that I'm the one I don't feel like I'm above 'em, I don't know what I'll become But what I do know, is when it's said and done It's more about the chase than the run I don't think that I'm the one I don't feel like I'm above 'em, I don't know what I'll become But what I do know, is when it's said and done It's more about the chase than the run I don't think that I'm the one I don't feel like I'm above 'em, I don't know what I'll become But what I do know, is when it's said and done It's more about the chase than the run
