No tell me what's happening when you step inside my skin
Let's switch it up for a day, and lemme know if you win
It's funny, I wouldn't wanna be you and you wouldn't wanna be me
We gotta pay our own dues and chase our own dreams
Nightmares up in everyone's head, yeah
No all the night terrors got you waking up dead
No the phantoms can't hang but they do like to float, yeah
And you'll float too, if you try to get your boat, so
I'mma get my bag and I'll just leave it at that
Man I'm working till I want turns into I have
Yeah I'm working till I'm proud of every melody and rap
Pay attention to the order there's a lesson in that
I'm tryna learn all of those so I can know that I'm grown
Way before I propose and make somebody my home, yeah
Cause right now I ain't trust myself with fame and the road
Cause see I know exactly who I am at night, alone
I was a real good kid, but then that kid grew up
Teardrops and balloons, I was just moving down and up
Back and forth, back and forth, yeah, I just keep going
Back and forth, back and forth, I'll be better in the morning
With the sunshine on my face and my fingertips
Yeah I'm praying while I'm working
That my shadow self won't linger
It's important that I got him but I gotta give him limits
Cause otherwise I know that he gon' ruin my business
And we can't have that, I'm too important, in fact
No I don't think that I'll cap with 2034 raps, yeah
No it's a long story so you'll have to run it back
The moment he leaves Tutera with a brand new tat, no
Yeah gimme twelve years and it'll start to make sense, yeah
And gimme ten days and I'll better my best
No this for sure ain't it, cause I'm just tryna write and spit
Pay attention to the mix, it ain't my time to make hits, yeah
I gotta get to work now, I'm working so much I'm burnt out
I'm burning what I am learning so I can see what'll turn me
Into the man that I think I need to be for myself, yeah
Or is it for her? man it's really hard to tell
