Yeah The lies I've told And the lines I've crossed, the times I toed But learnt that old men who sit down write poems, Have stories 'cause they lived life bold Your smile does show less teeth than what you once had But a heart full of gold I sat in awe soaking up the wisdom Vivid imagination, you're Picasso with these mental pictures Not quite like Van Gogh but I gave my ear My biggest take away, Besides God, there's nothing to fear Life is hard, death is certain People are hurting A mother just buried her son A new father just burped his Whole squad graduated, one ended up as a cashier So how do I smile knowing there's always a catch here Listen, the answers in the journey son And often you'll find em when you're not searching for 'em Relish adversity, that's when soul searching's done And the sum of you in those moments, know you're better than See I found peace in my lifetime And all I had to do was let my light shine It all fell into place at the right time And all I had to do in life was love mine Okay that's old man advice And I don't mean to sound spicy but damn, today's vices? Instagram, it might seem like we all just chasing nice things I'd dare you to walk in my shoes but damn these are pricey And the girls are all feisty and want a man that's got a nice whip See I thing you got a nice deal You didn't have to scroll no IG While you're peers are posting pricey Dior, Fendi And high-key, you wanna spend your last money at the Gucci store And hope they like it, double tap Whatchu know about that? Youngin', it's the same old shit, just a different day I see you talking hella slick hoping I miss the play And it's okay You think I never felt small? Think nobody back in my days had a bankroll? Cressida pressures boy my days were not a cake walk But that's besides the point See, there's always man that's doing better than you Look how your pride won't let you take that statement as true But I'm proud, 'cause what that says is you want better for you At the top of every mountain you gon' broaden your view, every time For every achievement this statement hold true Look out, don't let your ego lead and have you consumed You've got to define happiness, it's meaning to you And be proud of all your Ws Don't ever look down when you take an L, look up And show them who you are Show them you deserve this and you earned right where you are But make it look so easy that they start to think you are Replaceable but learn the hard way that you aren't And I've been listening for hours I wanted to tell the world but you said somethings are ours To know and not to share 'cause the world is not prepared And the real jewels you said I'm too young for, I cannot wait to hear Just soaking up your wisdom Corner of your eye you check to see if I'm still listening Thought I'd be distracted by my device but today I put some distance Decided I should actively listen Our time is always short You're always gardening of course We ain't use the chairs that I brought You're never still you always walk Tending to these beautiful flowers you adore Until next time, back to heaven you go
