[Verse 1: Mychelle Lee]
This here it ain't no picnic
I'm sorry no pun intended
Shift gears, I'm drifting
Mind is on something serious
Fast furious lifestyle man I lived it
'Til something said slow up and chill out for a minute
I listened
Ain't really have a choice, was a voluntold decision
Stopped the grind 'cuz something's wrong and nobody knows what is it
Gimme ounces of prescriptions and these diets filled with liquids
And these words over my head like treatments and remission
I'm sick of second guessing and I'm tired of the pain
Tired of running around like you wanted out of state
All I want is an answer and to stop it all the way
And the Lord, he got my back, but what's he really tryna' say
These questions in my head, and decisions on my plate
I eat 'em up like entrees, at the county buffets
'Cuz what else can you do but take this thing head on
Ain't no other way around it but to go through the storm
[Hook: 2X]
And I want it so bad, so bad I can taste it
I keep hearing that the key to greatness is patience
Well here's the lock, I'm patiently waiting on my spaceship
Patiently waiting on my spaceship
[Verse 2]
The most beautiful works of art, come from dark painful places
Guess I'm a high priced portrait, a Mona Lisa in the makin
With every brush struck of ill hope and countless waitin'
Aging my sentiment to dry form like fermentation
Try to see the light of day because I'm stuck within a cellar
And all I keep hearing is chill it gets better
But I be countin' days, like it's maximum security
And ain't no where to go and ain't nobody really hearin me
Ages my sentiment to dry form like fermentation
Try to see the light of day because I'm stuck within a cellar
And all I keep hearing is chill it gets better
But I be countin' days, like it's maximum security
And ain't no where to go and ain't nobody really hearin me
Beefin up on anything to strengthen up me spiritually
'Cuz in these trying times, that's the only thing real to me
Loosen up the chains 'cuz it's rackin' my brain
That there's somethin' on it's way and I'm stuck with just a name
'Cuz it's getting kinda hard to never give up
To some you look stupid and others you testing luck
Well, I guess I'm dumb because I'm almost there
Just as the wind blows, I can feel it in the air
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
Made an album for the critics in stitches, ain't even think twice
Played it all out when the dr made that first slice
Blood, sweat, and tears, on the literal I did it
On the cusp of a dream almost hindered by a sickness
In weakness I'm a giant
My stature was that of queens
In d**h I chose to live
That ain't an ordinary thing
Got the heart of a champ, better yet a stellar player
Surrounded by success, and unfamiliar to failure
Got the world on my shoulders but the burdens weight is feathers
I'm closer to my dreams much now more than ever
Much now more than ever, I'm closer to my dreams much now more than ever
