[Verse 1]
Sometimes I wonder how things would've been
If I stopped thinking about how things could've been
And sometimes I wonder how things should be
Should I alone go on this journey or should we?
Listen to me, I'm trynna f**ing talk to you
Seems like you don't want to so I'll try to give KShock to you
Seems like I've been walking down the same f**ing path all my life
You're right here and I still can't get across to you
There's me and there's him, two different people
In the same vicinity but hardly ever equal
But wait, aren't we the same guy?
Living the same life? Under the same sky?
I mean not really, just look at the picture
Two worlds, two lives, different people in the mixture
Maybe one's a little richer, maybe one's a little darker
Maybe one's easy to talk to, the other a bit harder
Maybe one just really wants to live a normal life
Get a normal job and love a pretty normal wife
But the other wants to have a good time
The other wants to really stand out, and make himself shine
But tell me how you change the darkness to greatness
Tell me how you change a young man through the ages
Tell me how you change a broken life into a life worth living
Please tell me now, man sometimes I f**ing hate this
[Verse 2]
Just walk with me, just talk with me
On my own, walking down the same f**ing block with me
Thinking ‘bout the memories that both of us shared
Remembering the times when no one else cared
But did we feel scared when life became harder?
Did we feel scared when our wine turned to water?
Did we feel scared when they screamed at us
"You won't be sh**! You won't be lit!"?
And then we made our fire hotter
With the embers of a thousand f**ing suns turned to ashes
Power of a lightning bolt screaming through the flashes
Flames of a million other universes burning
The demons in my mind all twisting and turning
Like please, get ‘em out of me, get ‘em out of me
Watching other people be legends I don't know how to be
So now you know my pain, welcome to the end of it
Welcome to the end of every problem I've been dealing with
Cause everybody wanna act holy, I gotta pray sh**
Playing games with God, but the demons won't let me play sh**
Like please, get him out of me, get him out of me
Watching other people be legends I don't know how to be
[Verse 3]
Man I'm just trynna do my rap sh**
I'm just trynna do me, no brag sh**
I'm just trynna get all caught up with the facts sh**
But I always gotta watch out for the trap sh**
Moving your pieces, but where is your game plan?
Say that you're flying but I don't count planes, fam
That sh**'s lame, fam
What happened to shame, fam?
f** all your money, your bullsh**, and f** your name, fam
Do you know what fame is, saying that you're famous?
Man I don't even know what your f**ing name is
Where is your greatness? Where is your pain?
All I see is paper, it's hiding your brain
But f** all these people who care only about the money
I've been living without it, working hard as a bee, no honey
All this music got me hopping all up and down like a bunny
And I'm trynna be the best but maybe that's a little funny
I'm using information that I've gathered through the ages
I'm just adding to my story, I'm not ripping out the pages
And I'm still going strong, no more hesitation
I'm asking you to come on this journey, this is your invitation
Yuh
This is your invitation
Yuh, yuh
This is your invitation
