I slowed my pace in this rat race
I lost my breath trying to chase
The messenger that told my soul
That I really have full control
Who are you? No who are we
Who am I when I'm feelin deep
Say what you mean
Just keep it G
Live how you think the world should be
As I lay
Down to sleep
I think of you
Am I too deep
So dismayed
At what I see
Can I heal the world
Or will I freeze
I'm so dismayed
I hear the pain
I play no games
I feel no shame
An open book is what I lay
To you I seem like I'm okay
Deep down I am
Deep I'm not
Deep down I wonder why I try
I feel the pressure stirring hot
I know deep down I am a god
I'm makin a livin, they pay me in full
I'm learnin my lessons, I am not a fool
This chapter is showin I'm beating the odds
I'm way in too deep, with no option to stop
Be cool, be cool, be cool
Smokin by the window, blow it towards the view
Mama told me always keep it true
Well good news
I ain't ever gonna lose, true
All I see is pride when I look into their eyes
So word to the wise stay focused on the prize
Never lose yourself to the world of wealth
Never lose yourself
Never lose yourself
As I lay
Down to sleep
I think of you
Am I too deep
So dismayed
At what I see
Can I heal the world
Or will I freeze
I slowed my pace in this rat race
I lost my breath trying to chase
The messenger that told my soul
That I really have full control
Who are you? No who are we
Who am I when I'm feelin deep
Say what you mean
Just keep it G
Live how you think the world should be
