I can never sleep cuz my mind always racing Friends wanna chill but I'm locked in the basement I just like the music never cared bout my placement And now I'm so good that they have to embrace it But I'm off it, hot like the tropics Manifest things when I speak from the conscience When I write this, nobody could top it I don't got the money but they say that I'm a prophet But it makes sense that I have to make cents Can't break bank so how can I pay rent It's a sad life, but I never pass twice I been going at it grinding harder than a half pipe I don't skate but I'm great with the words Why would I get drunk when I can pick apart a verse? I just got the talent, competition not a challenge Tryna work to get the money but can never see a balance Man I gotta get it And if not I'm gonna take it, everybody racist Hatin on the kid cuz his skin isn't shaded You really can't talk on a 5-figure pay-slip A day job would kill me, rap is the real me Man, but the wounds never healing Suicidal thoughts didn't sound too appealing I had to feel myself before anyone could feel me Lately I been working but I'm never getting paid Writing down my problems then I crumple up the page How I tell the people that I'm struggling inside Mean they love when you up but they laugh when you cry Yeah, that's how they really feel inside Love when you up but they laugh when you cry Yeah, that's how they really feel inside Love when you up but they laugh when you cry Don't need the fame, don't need the cash Know what I want so I don't go to class Crazy how I'm betting throwing every single chip in And everyone around me just thinks I'm a rich kid I'm blessed, but I never had it like that All I do is write raps Eyes on the gold and my mind in control So if you ain't keep it real then you gotta give the mic back Dad left when I was 3 Grandfather died when I was 8 Now I hate when they speak, nobody can rap and, All they do is mumble so that no one can relate I'm humble, but I wanna be the greatest Everybody basic, no one wanna face it I been in my own lane my mind-state complacent I'm working til' the day that my idols adjacent How many years Fought with my past overcame all my fears Stopped being weird but I was dropped by my peers Wanna see you win but they laugh at your tears Yeah, that's how they really feel inside Love when you up but they laugh when you cry Yeah, that's how they really feel inside Love when you up but they laugh when you cry
