[Verse 1 : Crowded Places] It's a beautiful day outside But I'd rather stay in and contemplate And regulate, everything that's failed as of late I peer into the eyes of my friends and I see the struggle I see the problem magnify in the rubble They also reflect me And everything we hate to be Yet we can't run from it It's the fact of knowing no matter how hard we try we still succumb We still are irresponsible and numb And time makes it worse I wanna speak my mind, but it's been shut so long Once opened I'm afraid it'll burst Like a Uzi shot from a baby it's just innocent trauma If you knew me you would listen no drama And if you see my heart please take it That's not something everyone is shown, I don't fake it So don't break it, don't take advantage Just please bandage all your mistakes so you can move on You don't have to suffer for what used to go on When hope is everlasting as long as you belong Stay in that circle of joy so you remain strong Cuz how can you feel genuine compa**ion alone When looking to find your own way it doesn't take long Because you're going at what you wanted anyways But you're better than laziness on a bad day [Hook: Crowded Places] I'm calling out to a lost state of mind I'm calling out to who's mine I'm calling out to a lost state of mind I'm calling out to who's mine [Verse 2: Crowded Places] We don't see what takes too much effort in our eyes And that's how far we've been desensitized and burrowed The motto is work for nothing and expect the world I feel down when I think about these things But it's hidden like an adulterer wedding ring Soaking in a bed of shame Pain all in my pillow as I pray And ask for guidance for you and me to take the right steps And the proper moves to make, it'll be ok That's what I keep saying I gotta be strong for any trail I may leave Because you never know who's following your lead You never know what words will motivate someone else You never know what hurt you just helped Man, the sun is bright gotta shut my blinds Wow, the sun is glorious [Hook: Crowded Places] [Verse 3: Crowded Places] Why am I sitting her thinking about what's wrong when the sky shows what right Can't hardly appreciate what good I have when what I want is my only sight I need to go outside And enjoy this day of life You might think this is unfair Yeah you might think my dice is weighted Cuz I leave you, leaving the sedated Leave you feeling sedated Think my dice is weighted Yeah you are my patient but, wait, you ain't sick I think I'm heated Now cuz I spit my first verse on the track The cypher going harder than track races Yeah I saw black people Running fast that mileage That's, that's Usain Boltage Usain Boltage Boltage going in like voltage Yeah the Colts and Andrew luck But I don't got no luck I'm all fortunate (Ohhh this is over)
