Swiftly get to commas, if he shifty you can miss me with the talking
You ain't making moves, you a moving target
We been moving product
I been losing sleep to find myself some progress
Honestly I'm in another new dimension, been on my ascension
Tired of all the politics and pointless picking
Push me to the point of breaking now I'm vacant
Running out of spaces
Had to tie my laces, father gave me game before his life was taken
We grew up with Rico then his life was taken
Ain't no heart inside my chest that spot is vacant
I ran out of patience
Time for you to pay me
I already paid my dues
Either that or necks start breaking like it's news
I'm just way too smart to ever be confused
I'm just way too introverted to be cool
I'm just way way way too special to be you
I just witnessed way too much death in my youth
So much blood that burgundy became the hue
I been running for so long I found a groove
That's why you could never try to wear my shoes
That's why you could never try to wear my shoes, yeah
Counting, I’m counting my blessings
I’m feeling so high, my heart is reflecting
Keep asking me why, for my own perspective
I don’t even try, this feeling’s refreshing
I’m so hypnotized, alive inside
Seeing like you, breaking the lines
Taking my time right now
(Taking my time right now)
XO, with a gold rose, with a solo in my hometown
Overtaken by emotion, writing loose leaf, making motions
Can you see this world from my point of view
Can you feel what’s real? Is there room for two
Can’t shut us down in other news
No, we never lose
