I ran face first into this wall
Thinking i should be someone else
Shadow boxing in the mirror
One on one
Versus myself
The silly game
Of life is interesting
Looking from in this shell
I been locked up
Won't let me out
Until I'm back into myself
Being trapped inside this cage
Interesting not at all
I'm going thru withdrawals
F*ck the medicine default
It's unsettling, see the people
Calling me a name
I never recognized
I'll let him take control
I guess it's better than
Facing disappointment
Head up
Instead I'll get my bread up
And have the world viewing me as famous
It's sounds lazy
Who are you to judge?
You never play me
I'll let laflair Van Gogh just carry me to safety
I ran face first into this wall
Thinking i should be someone else
Shadow boxing in the mirror
One on one
Versus myself
The silly game
Of life is interesting
Looking from in this shell
I been locked up
Won't let me out
Until I'm back into myself
Is it fear holding me back?
From spewing it all
Giving the truth because
Inside it's hurts me deep in my soul
Or is fear of repercussions?
Will niggas give a f*ck if I just give it up?
Will they relate or just say f*ck it!
Now who I do this for?
Nigga for me or for y'all
Worries 2 much bout the wrong things
Unfocused and all
I've always known myself
No I'm not Laflair
Van Gogh is aware
But Jelani Imani's right here
(I told you I'm ME)
