[Verse 1 : Richard Alire]
What you cryin' for? What you dyin' for Richard? What you lyin' for? Tell me what you hidin from
What you runnin' from? tell me where you goin', I just think I'm tryna find home
Maybe I ain't ever seen it, guess I'm really only dreamin' wit my eyes closed
Wit my eyes closed
What you lookin' for? who you waitin' for? Tell me what you waitin' on, why you tryna front doe?
If you really runnin' why do it silence? why not walk out through the front door?
You a k**a? Be a k**a, show me what you really made of let the gun go
Let everyone know
I ain't ever been a k**a but Im ready for the k**in' if it make one
I been waitin' all my life and I ain”t hearin' sh** from Christ, homie say some
I still be thinking bout my ex, I swear I read all of our texts when I can't run
I guess I can't run
I ain't never stayed put, though
Move it like a greyhound I ain't tryna stay round I wanna get my cake up though
I'm tryna see the sunshine, lately I been colorblind, don't wanna wake up, slow
Maybe I'mma dreamer, but lately I been dreamin' you gone take us, home
Home
[Hook : Richard Alire]
What you cryin' for ?
What you cryin' for ?
What you cryin' for ?
I don't know
I do my dance without my shoes tied
I do my dance without my shoes tied
I do my dance without my shoes tied
It's f** the world, and get them tubes tied
[Verse 2 : Richard Alire]
Lately I been thinking too much, I think
Maybe I been drinkin' too much, I just need a little green
I been smokin' till I can't and then I smoke a lot more, I need a shrink
I ain't wastin' my time, im just pacin' my grind, what you mean?
Took a mean a** minute now we all feel like we mean some'
Dissin' me then you dissin' my team, thank god we dreamed some'
I ain't never felt like Im free I just feel like I'm freerunnin'
sh**, im just tryna be somethin'
We all tryna be somethin'
Made a promise last year, I said no more tears so I'm mean mugging
Now I'm lookin' in the mirror wit a bigger sense of fear on what Im becomin'
I don't know what Im becoming
I ain't talk to my bro in like 4 months, sh** I know he buggin
I'm getting hella tired of runnin', pretty soon im finna trip, I can't handle this
New year, I'mma get my name clear yo its time to be a man & sh**
Say goodbye to my mom, I ain't got no time for cryin', I'mma “man” & sh**
[Hook : Richard Alire]

[Verse 3 : Richard Alire]
Lately I been feelin' myself
Lately I been feelin' myself, I don't think I need help
Spent my whole life waitin', now I'm winnin' I ain't takin' no L
I been doin' my dance without my shoes tied, b**h, no belt
Middle finger the haters, middle finger to the ops, f** YOU
Middle finger to the b**hes who ain't f** wit me back in high school
Now you tryna get some, and Im waitin' for the one like Neo
She ain't callin' my phone, now I'm sick of love songs, f** Ne-Yo
Ya I bet you proly know it but I still be thinking bout you everyday
But I told myself you'd never get a song, and so that's all im bout to say
Guess I lied, because I hope you doin' well, nah, I hope you doin' GREAT
Hope you doin' great
Ya, I been doin' great
I been writin' more songs, I been writin' more wrongs wit my pain
I been workin' on my self, I ain't holdin' no one else for the blame
I can finally say I'm free, I ain't really feelin' linked to the chains
Ya, I been doing great
[Hook : Richard Alire]
