[Intro]
Yah
It's like my head keeps f**ing with me man, what's going on, for real?
sh**
Yah
[Verse 1]
It's like I hit twenty-one, still tryna' evolve
So many questions, unanswered, problems to solve
It's like I wake up drinking, go to sleep sinking
Turn around, "What the f** am I really thinking?"
Feeding and living on instant gratification
Looking for an escape, I'm on that next train
And nowhere fast, got nothing but my pride
A dollar and a backpack, filled with frustration
Watch the people come and go from my life
Like the only social network I value is at the bus station
Place I freaking diss myself, 'cause when this sh** breaks down
I can't really trust nobody else
I feel nobody else
I love nobody else
Even in my strife, I can't hate nobody else
I can't pretend that I'll change how I'm living
Yet I stay the same, I still don't get it
[Hook]
My mind, my mind, my mind slips, it stay slippin', I stay slippin'
My mind, my mind, my mind slips, it stay slippin', I stay slippin'
My mind, my mind, my mind slips, I stay slippin', I stay slippin'
My mind, my mind, my mind slips, I stay slippin', I stay slippin'
My mind, my mind, my mind slips, it stay slippin', I stay slippin'
My mind, my mind, my mind slips, it stay slippin', I stay slippin'
My mind, my mind, my mind slips, it stay slippin', I stay slippin'
[Verse 2]
If I could foresee the future by the lines on my hand
Whisperin' through allegories and the lines in the sand
I would reconfigure away all my moods and decisions
Constructin' my mind, stay slick with precision
Growin' up, never had something worth building
Got the double-speaker tell with the voice of the children
Standing on my shoulders with the brain of a genius
The touch of an angel, and the sk** of a wizard
Frankie, heard but couldn't paint a better picture
Present day sci-fi, the void of religion
I used to think Heaven is the Mount Love until i walked that stretch
Saw the same n***as tryna' re-up
Went home, turn my pen and pad to a time machine
Transportin' my brain to a place that I've never seen
Looked in a mirror, twenty years to the minute
And it still was the same, I still don't get it
[Outro]
And it all fades to black
And it all fades to black
And it all fades to black
And why is that?
'Cause life is like that
