I want to stay backstage I want to stay backstage I don't want no one to follow me So many roles that I play And everybody want to play with me I want to stay backstage I don't want no one to follow me So many roles that I play And everybody want to play with me Sometimes we got to live inside the moment Sometimes we got to stop and smell the roses The stage is set for you All for you The tree of life never stops growing Even when them heaven doors open The stage is set for you All for you Yeah Yeah I think it's time for a tabula rasa Clean the slate clean the plate get rid of the imposters I got friends that's lawyers and doctors killers and robbers And I'm just somewhere in between trying to figure out all this Feeling hopeless in this life trying to think of the next stage Was like a homeless man with pride now I've learned to accept change You ain't know It's human nature you ain't know Our thoughts like rivers watch it flow We plant a seed then watch it grow Memories of our sacred family tree Got us branching off to places that no one could foresee Just in search of our peace Like the sun we shine for many tomorrows They rain on our parade we can't drown in our own sorrows Desensitized to pain and loss feel the numbness Second guessing if we feeling means we still feeling something I swear Yeah my vision is clear Mother Nature birthed the story I'm just happy to share I'm just happy to share Sometimes we got to live inside the moment Sometimes we got to stop and smell the roses The stage is set for you All for you The tree of life never stops growing Even when them heaven doors open The stage is set for you All for you Yeah Code-switching for all my auditions Trading places changing faces wit God as my witness Every single stage of our lives is just that A performance a theatric a valuable act In the hood we playing roles for pure survival It's in the way we walk the way we talk it's so insightful Mean mug and street talk we do it with our eyes closed Walking on the block feel like I'm walking on a tight rope With a blindfold Them cop lights feel like stage lights We got stage fright They pull us over turn our voice white College boy imposter syndrome feeling out of place Tough classes no help I almost exited the stage Got to stick to the script nigga Or you get recasted Casting spells give you hell just to put you in caskets Damn They might smile in your face but it's just a mask I hope I'm free of bondage when the curtains close and season pass Sometimes we got to live inside the moment Sometimes we got to stop and smell the roses The stage is set for you All for you The tree of life never stops growing Even when them heaven doors open The stage is set for you All for you Yeah Act one the world is greedy
