[ Featuring WILLHOUSE ]
I said we all know sleep is the cousin of death
For most all that's left is a life full of struggle and stress
Hear the devil mumbling under his breath
God forbid if I ever listen
Halo round my head is gon forever glisten
Reminiscing of a time my thoughts were way purer
Days when we would fly to Europe just to hoop
And dreaming of a day that they would que up just to hear me spit the truth Ain't no excuses
Ask a nigga how I feel ima tell you that you're being too obtrusive
Way too reclusive to let you in
Heating up the remedy to pierce it right through his skin
Fighting all those battles but his heroes are deep within
They tryna break free
I know my actions make me and my words
They don't really mean shit
I know a nigga alive why do I not feel it
Anything that's in my grasp is way less appealing
I need mental healing
There's certain things from the past that a mask can't conceal
I'll keep it way more than real
I'm not tryna paint a picture I'm just telling you how I feel
When I think about the time that's left
And the time that we lost
Realized every minute wasted that comes at a high cost
This a one way road it only leads to one place
Will you leave in disgrace
Or will you break down all the walls
So you don't fit in the same space that you're claustrophobic in
You too weak you hold it in so you just soldier on
Ain't got no heat you drawing blanks on dreams they sold you on
You got the key you see, unlocking potential is what they hold you from Give you the gun but I can't pull the trigger for ya
What you aiming at
You swear to make a change
But the fear consumes you you assume that you must take it back
Even in the darkest corner you can make it back
Glimmer of hope still shines if all else fades to black
Yo, when it all fades to black
Glimmer of hope still shines if all else fades to black Even in the darkest corner you can make it back Glimmer of hope still shines if it all fades to uh
Yo, when it all fades to black
Glimmer of hope still shines when all else fades to black Even in the darkest corner you can make it back
(You can make it back, what's up)
Don't give a f*ck bout how I should live I live my own way
I dismiss advice they give proceed to give my own take
You of all people in the world know what it takes to win
Kinda like how money make it spin but we don't see it rotate You see I'm prone to hold a grudge if niggas don't wait with me In my zone when I'm alone like I'm balling out of Salt Lake City Self destructive, it says way less about me
Than it does her if a hoe stay with me, yo
Pray the dough stay with me as I rise
Living on the edge is cool till you realize you can't fly look
Rock and a hard place we living in between
Type of shit that keeps you going when you young and got a dream Drown out all the noise hear my voice is not the same
But it's useless as a politician lobbying for change
My brothers is my campaign donors
We far from the herd but these suckas wanna stampede on us
I can't breathe, i feel the pressure caving in
If he swallowed by the masses boy there ain't no saving him Check, I feel the pressure caving in
If he swallowed by the masses boy there ain't no saving him
If ima fraud I ain't worth saving
Conflict ripping at my core nigga I ain't really sure
All I know is that the shit I'm wading through is deep
One thing I ain't certain will he save me if I sleep, aye
If I'm gon fall from my grace
At least let me say my peace
If In the palms of my hands rest my fate Can they tell me if I'll wake when I sleep If I'm gon fall from my grace then At least let me say my peace
If In the palms of my hands rest my fate Can they tell me if I'll wake when I sleep
When it all fades to black
Glimmer of hope still shines if all else fades to black Even in the darkest corner you can make it back
Yo, when it all fades to black
Glimmer of hope still shines when all else fades to black Even in the darkest corner you can make it back
Yo yo yo, check
