Back and forth forming worst opinions 24/7 working, asserting my dominion Cutting off all of these fake minions Despicable me, lyrically unleashing all of my worst demons Release the people that can't f*ck with the vision I refuse to let another person ever catch me slippin' It's positive vibes only, keeping these eyes open Opportunity don't come sleeping, keep my mind focused Treat every new project like it's my magnum opus Platinum status my onus, I own it Suitcase packed with a suit and tie and a few Trojans It's business in the morning In the evening who knows if I'll find another woman to ease my troubles a few moments? Really that's typical Force is centripetal, running around in circles 'til my feet swell up and split open Critics are cynical 'cause I defeat their pinnacle on a daily basis Airplane in a rat race with one game token, Lord of the Rings, Tolkien Rings like a champion Talk success with my haters it's like I'm speaking Mandarin Candid candor, pardon my manners, I'm very direct with everybody Or maybe you've just never heard the truth from anybody Everyone's texting obsessively, symptom of our modern age So when I come at you direct you actin' buddy-buddy But really I know the truth Faces covered in lies, but I can see right through I can see it in your eyes that you just might lose your confidence Then you'll show me a magic trick like "poof", damn Sooner or later y'all disappear If you're making shit complicated I don't need you here I got enough spirit, you ghosts don't ever need to haunt me Though neither God or the devil are very fond of me I'm constantly switching sides, I'm always swapping teams Either very sublime, or very obscene I could take her to dinner, tell her follow her dreams Or I could take her home, ask her to get on her knees But this isn't the pew, this is not a confession I'm just obsessed with success, cashing checks and perfection Some of these women with perfect complexions catch my affection We form a connection but then I forget 'em Cause I'm too caught up in the wave Got too much on my mind girl, I can't see you today They might find another man but tell me that I was great But I can't get caught in my feelings, I've got money to make And I've got business to do, I've got something to prove I got ice in my veins, I got spikes in my shoes Because I race to the finish when I'm here in the booth And right now I've got nothing to lose, nothing to lose Riding this wave, cause I needed to find a way to live my life for me Something that I couldn't see Spent too much of my time trying to make it right by saying What I know people want to hear in the moment Riding this wave, cause I needed to find a way to live my life for me Something that I couldn't see Spent too much of my time trying to make it right Just by saying what people want to hear in the moment I've been riding the wave and why follow my lead? And I don't know what I want to hear people say in the moment Love under my eyes, now there's smoke in my eyes that I'm clearing out
