How much time it take? I gotta accept my flaws Lately I’ve been dozing off like Tylenol I just finished school, I'm just a know it all Yeah, if I don’t know the answers, then I guess I'm wrong I’ve been losing sleep, I'm losing stride The hood in me can’t multiply What do it take to get me by? I guess therapy can’t sympathize We living with each other lives Everybody switching sides I wonder where my brothers lie I'm in the moment where I don’t know what's next I even contemplated texting on my ex If my back against the wall, then I'm dealing with reject If the fame come too soon, then I'm dealing with the press If you a man and you cry they assume you depressed Check the color of my skin you would know I'm oppressed I'm a product of some dogs that was counting every check If it’s me against the world, then I guess I'm taking less How much do you really got to lose? Pictures on the Gram turn to something we can’t prove If make it out was a person, let me be the living proof Sour taste in my mouth, they was laughing at my shoes Always been that guy that just try to play it smooth Guidance in the mic, it’s just something that I do But if words can get me by I'ma sharpen up my tools Lately I’ve been focused on some things I’ve been immune Was a class clown in a clown class I’ve been amused Yeah, when the times changed and I look back I been abused Yeah, same pencil from freshman year, I just reuse Yeah, that bad bitch with the long hair, I couldn’t refuse Yeah, yeah I just realized that I'm living in lust Gotta close my eyes and look above But liquor talk and bullshit walk You see my scars, they cut that far, yeah They look for satisfaction in designer stores It’s the law of attraction in a bag of clothes The time I spent out there wanting more Can’t be oblivious to the doors I closed Print my face on a paper like a missing person Before learning how to write I was thinking cursive Understand that I'm different, I'm just now learning It’s those signs from above told me talk to sermons Oh, in other words we lost under rocks, spin our clocks It’s a speed to the top but the heat it been hot Unless you fold then you rot Shiesty mask for them shots Story time no plot but them stories got red dots Okay listen, I got consumed by my vision Thinking Hollywood was my mission Wish a nigga would tell me different Sharpen up my wood I'm a villain Niggas got two-face they revealing Have you seen the judge know the feeling Even though the judge know the feeling Ha, that's crazy Crying to the jury for repentance Product of the system, not a menace They put him in a cell for a minute Tell him this is hell, this ain't prison You shoulda seen his eyes when he saw the witness But let me finish Honestly I'm mortified there’s no more pride Even holding hands you can’t tell the sides Even knees on necks they been televised (and we know who died) Tears across the window but it’s no more cries Why we getting jobs when we can’t apply I mean apply it to our real life If there’s no food on my plate, I'ma seize mine Fuck 12 and drive-bys, they just creep by I be existing till my soul dies I know bae got it twisted but its soul ties My story won’t be finished, it’s a cold dive
