[Intro]
Have you ever figured out what you'll be like in a few years? Why don't you look ahead?
Aw, don't preach at me or...plan of looking ahead. As if you can tell what you'll be like in a few years
[Verse 1: Red Pill]
I don't know what I'm here for, I don't know what the point is
Spent so many nights alone sipping this poison
All of us trying to find it, some of us call it "purpose"
Don't know if it's divine or can we even define it
Am I playing a role in somebody else's theater
Look around at this world and nothing's been getting clearer
Only be getting weirder
I just sit in Detroit, little blip on the radar, maybe there's not a point
Maybe it's all coincidence
Trying to make a little sense out of something that doesn't
Maybe there's no significance
We're just rational cattle, uh end of discussion
And as lonely as that can sound
When you look up at the stars, son that black background
You wonder where you came from and why you stay
Maybe there's not a reason and that's okay
[Hook: Verbal Kent]
No one's ever promised tomorrow
I'ma be who I am and you are who you are
Uh, let's let the past be that
The sh** is over why overreact?
No one's ever promised tomorrow
Let's do today right now
Maybe the secret to life is that you're not the main character
And the fact that you're even a factor is a miracle
[Verse 2: Verbal Kent]
No matter what road I travel on, add a little something to the catalog
I'm living in stereo and an*log
Where we go is unknown
Trying to get a handle on the cut throat
Nature anticipated with utmost
Energy, remember me as give before he took
Guy who did the right thing, took your hand and then he shook
Played it straight but could've gone sideways like any rook
Never judge the contents by the cover of any book
Pay it forward any possible place and time
Doing every turn that for most sh** just don't go the way it's designed
I cheated d**h, some say it's a sign
I think the strength that others gave me is the way I survived
Maybe it's open to interpretation
The moral of a story touching us at different points of life at different phases
All the places I've been, I've always looked at different Hell
And taking in the scenery a different version of myself
[Hook]
