[Intro]
I feel like the genius of our time
Might just be a miss who's into spitting rhymes
I feel like this ain't another song
That I'm pushing through the mic, realize it's real life
I feel like I'm outside, looking in
Counting all the problems, I don't know where to begin
Trying to wake the f** up and trying to break the trend
But if nobody's listening, then?
[Verse 1]
Am I ready for the attention?
From those who disagree with me and become apprehensive
Cuz I ain't what you're used to seeing and our beliefs become defenses
My agenda's an abomination, so I'm getting d**h threats?
I'm everything you already expected
And more too, previous prejudices laid to rest
In peace; What I breathe and believe answers all the hardest questions
Life throws at us when the ma**es are left guessing
But it's okay to be unsure, as long as it's tested
Up-to-date hypothesis, revised and edited
Shouts from all directions. I swear the tension's never-ending
We fight about who's wrong or right and disregard the message
That you and I and that mother f**er you can't stand
Were only born to die fighting for some promised land
Try to picture and understand
You ain't the only one implementing scriptures in your plans
[Hook]
I feel like I'm outside, looking in
Counting all the problems, I don't know where to begin
Trying to wake the world up and trying to break the trend
But if nobody's listening, then?
[Verse 2]
I'm trying to stay up, I'm trying to get my life straight
Ever since that evening flight, I kinda got my mind made
I'm gonna be that magic I imagine day to day
Where my music's moving mountains and I'm finally getting paid
Something brewing in my brain, and here I thought I was insane
When I was really dope as hell, cuz I had something else to say
Ain't for everyone, but f** it, I'm grinding anyway
Ask anyone. I'm spreading love, cuz love can moderate one's hate
Bitterness consumes and won't alleviate your pain
I know it, I've had my share, and still I can't complain
Cuz when you get that low, you don't got sh** to lose, but all to gain
It's so attainable now. I'm k**ing cats and taking names
And where I'm coming from, yo we don't like to play
I stay about it, practice what I preach. Free to validate
Whoa, I said we ain't into playing games
I stay about it, practice what I preach. Y'all can validate
[Hook]
