[Verse 1]
Took a look in the mirror and I could finally see me
Recognizing in recency when I'm not thinking freely
It's like a genie comes and tells me when I'm being greedy
Sometimes it cuts deeply when you see what you should change really
I feel the need to become something and leave my sanctuary
Hit the world running holding a Wu slang dictionary
Interested in lean but when he's home he's only sipping dairy
Still having dreams in which he's k**ing canaries
I wanna move to a prairie work on myself with no mercy
Although friction is lowering I'm lucky I didn't overheat
I don't know I just feel clearer, I've been noticing
Just how little control my boss has over me
My focus is shifting to, my addiction to
And dependence on solitude and what I gotta do
Stop wallowing in it till I see fit to call it a night
Don't wanna be so uptight make me require a light
Rearranging days from where sadness was the standard
Take a look back, how far the tables can turn
I learned not to ask man for answers
You'll get sh** like plant's a noun and verb
Made Sun Ray in an attempt to help the souls be free
Whoa is me, poles switch depicting UFO or OBE
It hurt when I landed but I'm brushing the dust off
I must not fail I've tried too hard thus far
To screw heads on and to get these minds straight
Cuz they've been pushed aside by sentiment like get in line, wait
Afraid to make a sound too much to file a complaint
It's been a while since they'd had to fake a frowny face
Try and break laws and get smacked on by the rulers
Do their damndest to be sure they get it in like virgin tutors
Squirming with the discomfort of others undermining their futures
The ones who decide if and when you become a f**ing loser
You're stupid, you need to do what I say I swear you're gonna fail
You're f**ing nailed if I catch a whiff of you slipping under rail
The goal is crunching you to a number making your summer stale
Bail on your friends but don't forget neglect others or they'll
Take advantage making our games pale in comparison
Embarra**ing as admitting it is I know your arrogance'll
Spare me can't care for thirty seconds or think for yourself
You're special to me, I think you deserve to serve well
Would it be easy if I just don't
(x2)
[Verse 2]
I hold no stock in college daze or Ivy League
I.V. stream sedating me complacent proud of my degree
No chasing dreams I play the game they still don't hire me
And now I'm stuck in a rut cuz I couldn't see the higher me
Disguised in glee, forked road, no good way to go
But, hey, I chose this, I broke my f**ing soul
If I ever have kids I don't know what I'm gonna tell em
Love felons don't get jealous and to stay in the present
Rebellion's more fruitful than losing your voice yelling
If they feel inadequate they're still more compelling
Than the cases who embrace weapons their steady drip of venom
Never sell yourself short remember you're already heaven
Take the breaks off
Go slow
[Verse 3]
I must say, today sure could've been worse
The next to come could be the one that really hurts
Could be the one that frees me from this Earth
But end in bed or a hearse, know its purpose is served
At first it seems it might be like the one before
But my eyes open I see there's no knowing what's in store
Or what it's for, who, even when it's said I can't be sure
But the effects are felt and in the end it just gets restored
Whether it led to better head space or lessening dead weight
The d**h rate decreased releasing souls return to grace
To the purity of virgins till there's lessons they be learning
Loosening mind sets stretch grow accustomed to the serving
Sized up, lied to from start to finish mind f**ed
Carts in front of horse you get nowhere if you don't try some
Forget what you know, ego can't possibly help none
Doesn't matter what happened pat on the back, there, well done
Another one down
