Yeah, took me a long time to look at you and feel nothing
Took me a long time to hear your name and heal from it
I make music and I feel summoned
I put it out and all I hear is cheers from it
Fear nothing
There's chills running down my spine, but I'm still running
I'm still gunning for the top while niggas steal from me
And all these niggas that I thought was real wasn't really real to me
Some of them are probably still fronting, but I can feel that energy from a mile away
Used to be as hard as finding needles from a pile of hay
And when they show they true colors, believe it right away
I use the music as my therapy and my escape
While y'all was sleeping on a nigga, I was wide awake
Type of nigga, if I can't get it, then I'mma find a way
And if she coming to my crib with her clothes on
I bet you she gone take it off like a holiday
Yeah
Mmm
Tired of pretending that I ain't who I am
I'm too nice, tucking my light away just to please them
Offers to reconcile some shit, just know that I'mma rescind
Just know that we can't be friends, I got my list of reasons
I'm a different pedigree, unapologetically
Shit is getting deep, think I need some levity
Said what I said, nigga, excuse my brevity
And I made the beat too, don't this shit sound heavenly?
But I didn't do this shit for you, or they, or them
But for whoever the f*cking shoe fits, I guess I'm ruthless
Feel like if I didn't write this down, record it, and put it out, then I'm toothless
Uh, but we know that ain't no true shit
And if I'm not telling you the truth, then I'm useless
So if you wondering why we stopped talking, that's why
I had to stop this shit before the ship capsized
I had to cleanse my spirit of you with the baptize
This wasn't meant to condemn you, ridicule you, or chastise
Some people might even say this shit is ill-advised
But you know how it is, when you a rap guy
Spilling from the heart, it's a new beginning
I can feel the start, nigga, who we kidding?
Yeah
This shit ain't really difficult
But just know I didn't do this shit for you
