This life is damaging I used to paint pictures for peace But now there's stains of bad blood on all of my canvases Put my emotions on wax whenever these candles lit Nicotine drags to cope with my growth Success gets cancerous But I can't quit I go through cash withdrawals and start to crave for more All my life I've been so poor/po Writing poems till I shake hands with fortune With the hopes that pain is Nevermore Had to change my approach And now this Wldface is what I sport Look at all the lives that I can score With soundtracks that get tracked Behind these public housing walls Their sh** is a cry for help I'm here cancelling their calls And if their confidence is high I'm here cancelling that cause Like a failed transaction, my flows back-handing These rappers, daddy's home Nomadic, I'm more than average Lord knows where I might go I put my trust in Jesus, grab the wheel
And if i crash it's safe to say My faith had got me k**ed This life is damaging I used to paint pictures for peace But now there's stains of bad blood on all of my canvases Haunted by echoes from a couple of my promises So i got to get it, can't be worried about who I stand against 'Cause life is full of surprises Prepare to prosper, prepare to give out demises I know that they despise me, understand I got the Visine Vision clear as crystal-ball I see my future reaping, all I wish for The strings I pull bring funerals You see I'm all for violins/violence An awful lot of noise about the boy I just feed them silence I was taught to respect the dead Don't got the time for politicking I'm after presidents instead This life is damaging But i'm prepared to take the damaged 'Cause I'm a damaged good Yeah, I'm just a damaged good
