Raava - Youngin' lyrics

[Intro:] "Only as sure as I am that the reality...of one night Let alone that of a whole lifetime can ever be the truth" [Verse 1: Darxx] I wouldn't rap on this Unless it was the whole truth So that's what I'ma give ya Live life or it's gon' k** ya If the duration was fluid Wouldn't get called a b**h now would it I'm just saying, please don't get me wrong, I love women But temptation could be downfall That's why I usually stay from around y'all An introvert by nature But that ain't exactly the spice of life So I switch up my behavior Before I act like I'm the type that's hype Gotta put a mask on like we all do 'cause it really doesn't matter what they call you Only thing that matter's what you respond to 'cause in the end You better realize it is all true or "just a dream" Who knows? I don't care too I'm too busy in the moment Trying to be the one that's chosen Not them other people posing that I tear through When I'm riled up or frustrated Writer's Block got me all like what patience? Difficult getting my mind right Consistently tripping from hindsight Get something written I might just Until then, people say I was tight once Nowadays though they really ain't sho' What the hell you trying to make us wait for? Wish I had an answer and I do now Old-school sorta fool with a new sound Origins found 'round the eight-three-oh So when people ask why I take things slow I just say [Chorus 1: Darxx] Ever since I was a youngin', there's been something to explain Had to muscle through the struggle after confronting the pain Trials and tribulations tried to take me underground Now I speak to keep my demons from making another sound (x2) [Verse 2: Darxx] From the beginning, my sea been spinning And now my equilibrium rough Can't walk around without knocking down Everything including my dreams, it's tough Figuring out what you're supposed to do What's the one thing keeping you going? Exactly what separates those who are stagnant From those who flowing? It's pa**ion and action Mixed with good old-fashioned motivation 'Cause pa**ing on what attracts you Don't make half as much sense, it's so persuasive And enticing to finally go for it It's right there, just gotta take a shot It comes down to simply being a matter of whether or not You're really dying to make a spot or "just a dream" Choose one, only two choices The aftermath, your's alone to face A man ain't right that's gon' ignore his place So beware of the mirror's reflection 'Cause to me, there's no clearer deception Than the lies that we tell ourselves often To get outside of the boxes we locked in By the state of mind's we possess Posing as low-key and not threats To our dispositions and sets of wishes Then before you know it, you regret to mention That your time is up, straight bowing out It's over man, I'm through playing While I'm still letting all this steam up By living out that which I dream of And saying [Chorus 2: Darxx] Repeat x2
