Sometimes I see some things that I shouldn't see; simple patterns that are sitting right in front of me Try to climb ever higher try to get to the sky and though I've been to the clouds it's just a temporary high Take time, I said now what you're trying to do, if you're gonna see it through it takes time I said it takes some time to figure it out Stay in line But how do you follow it and cross it at the same time? You just can't cross it oh, no I don't wanna say the things I have to say who's to say that I'll ever say them at all? Gotta be that, gotta get it with that act Gotta wear the hat although it's all a mismatch Squared circles, ran around the hurdles I did everything, I thought there was a purpose? Can somebody show me how to get in? 'Cause I can't figure out how to get in. Can somebody show me? I can't see in The Dark Can somebody take me? I can't stay in The Dark? Will you Illuminate me on out of The Dark? Turning pages, turning corners, turning into another Turning into a song that's just like every other They say to get there you already have to be there to start How do you get there when you know it's what you need in your heart? Take time, I said now what you're trying to do, if you're gonna see it through it takes time I said it takes some time to figure it out Stay in line But how do you follow it and cross it at the same time? You just can't cross it oh, no I don't wanna say the things I have to say who's to say that I'll ever say them at all? Gotta be that, gotta get it with that act Gotta wear the hat although it's all a mismatch Squared circles, ran around the hurdles I did everything, I thought there was a purpose? Can somebody show me how to get in? 'Cause I can't figure out how to get in. Can somebody show me? I can't see in The Dark Can somebody take me? I can't stay in The Dark? Will you Illuminate me on out of The Dark? No sound like this Look what you made me do, look what I made for you Knew if I paid my dues, how will they pay you When you first come in the game, they try to play you Then you drop a couple of hits, look how they wave to you From Marcy to Madison Square To the only thing that matters in just a matter of years As fate would have it, Jay's status appears to be at an all-time high, perfect time to say goodbye When I come back like Jordan, wearin the 4-5 It ain't to play games witchu It's to aim at you, probably maim you If I owe you I'm blowin you to smithereeens Cocksucker take one for your team And I need you to remember one thing (one thing) I came, I saw, I conquered From record sales, to sold out concerts Young did it to death, you gotta love it Record companies told me I couldn't cut it Now look at me, all star-studded Golfer above par like I putted All cause the shit I uttered, was utterly ridiculous How sick is this? How sick is this? I don't wanna say the things I have to say who's to say that I'll ever say them at all? Gotta be that, gotta get it with that act Gotta wear the hat although it's all a mismatch Squared circles, ran around the hurdles I did everything, I thought there was a purpose? Can somebody show me how to get in? 'Cause I can't figure out how to get in. Can somebody show me? I can't see in The Dark Can somebody take me? I can't stay in The Dark? Will you Illuminate me on out of The Dark? Will you Illuminate me on out of The Dark?
