Been a while, I'm back and I can't wait to perform
I've changed a lot, grown a bit, I was anxious before
And every time I think about it, I was waiting for more
It's over - I don't know what my hiatus was for
I had time to make amends, played with my core
Now, my heart's like a home, so I just hang the decor
Separate me from the rest cause I come with awards
No matter what aisle I'm on, there's something in store
These clutches adore and meet the side of my face
Tied like laces on a shoe when I'm deciding my fate
I never had the intent, but I was likely involved
Cause the pollution in the air has helped my mind to evolve
At the bottom of the totem, picking up where I left off
Connecting to the sentence with a message and blessed thoughts
Pen meets pad - I'm dropping the art
I'll save a couple shots for later 'way I pocket these bars
YO...they told me it's right
They told me to cry
But everything that they told me, well I know it's a lie
[Yes] They told me it's right
[Yes] They told me to cry
But everything that they told me, I know it's a lie, so I try
Dream big, think small, yeah it's prolly bizarre
But I've always passed GO in my monopoly car
I never get ready...just to keep it serene
Can't settle down for decent just to keep with the themes
Never hit the bricks, chopped, never blasting them guns
I always hit the ground before I actually run
They say, "why you sprinting?" I'm on a mission to change
And every step seems like a mile, but Imma finish this race
With ease, change the pace - erase the dreams
It's all true, but for real it seems make believe
Anything is possible, but everything's an obstacle
My heart could feel like ice and yet it's melting like a popsicle
Props to those on the path, I've carried it wrong
Feeling like I'm at the top cause "that is where I belong!"
Or maybe not, I'd learn more from chucking it all
So when I stumbled on a chance I felt lucky to fall
YO...they told me it's right
They told me to cry
But everything that they told me, well I know it's a lie
[Yes] They told me it's right
[Yes] They told me to cry
But everything that they told me, I know it's a lie, so I try
I captured every meaning in this veteran's cell
And I never saw a difference between heaven and hell
Touching walls with the words as I silently write
Some people live for nothing, I just try to survive
Yeah, the meaning of the music isn't always clear
But I'm trying to be heard after all these years
One final thought...and then we'll meet at hello
Said my goals aimed high and I see them below
So when tomorrow finds forever then I'm already tossed
And all the pages stayed empty, I'm honestly lost
They say the words spray while my mandible swings
My tongue's flammable, spelling danger in tangible dreams
Had to retreat, bounce back, collapse in defeat
So when the moment came to smash, I got mad at the beat
It said keep on trying, I had to compete
The battle's just begun - but on my back is the fleet
