Inside My Mind

Man, I was a lonely little sucka Always tryna find a lover Cuz I saw it in my mama's novelas And every slumber I would dream about the dreams of my dreams A matter of fact A figure of speech I could not see the opportunities in front of me While Mama was buildin' a bridge to luxury Now, I'm 24 I spent my youth on always wantin' more and Hard habits don't break quick Ain't tryna get rich quick I'm tryna follow on this long road Get the ball rollin' I'll succeed long as my humility slowly grows up past my ego But really, where do we go? Cuz maybe I got time, and maybe I don't If I don't give life to my dreams then I kill my soul Yeah I was a lonely kid and always lived inside my mind Yeah I was a lonely kid and always lived inside my mind Sit for a minute so I can laugh with you Once this truth has made it's way through To all your sentimental views Of your struggles while you're caught in the coup I'll pick pocket and loot ya brain's knowledge for old wisdom That I forgot to soon All of my memories run rampant Slave to my own mind Time to take strides I slip by my own life I don't wanna die I don't wanna ride On the River Styx On it ever since Gimme some time Or I'mma take it Eat a piece of cake with it Just for the sake of it man Sometimes you gotta fake it till you make it man Hope my rhymes are reaching farther than my closest fam Yeah I'm a lonely person always livin' in my mind Did you know? I'm a lonely person always livin' in my mind Check I need time to rectify all my lies I need time to rectify wasted time I need time to rectify all the stupid fights I'ma step in line I'ma get the timing right I need time to show myself that I'm doin' better I need time to let myself be under the weather I need time to show myself that everybody hurts It is not the worst to feel like you will never be with them I wish time came with a gold receipt That I could back up with a never ending warranty I said I wish time came with a gold receipt That I could back up with a never ending warranty, but I will always be the only person in my mind All along, I will always be the only person in my mind Yo So if you ever see somebody who's in need Reach out your hand You ain't even gotta understand what they going through Cuz you already know it's true The sufferin' inside you The sufferin' unites you Yo So if you ever see somebody who's in need Reach out your hand You ain't even gotta understand what they going through Cuz you already know it's true The sufferin' inside you The sufferin' unites you And I wrote
