Yeah
Ok I'm back again it's like 6
I never thought I'd have my sights fixed
On what I wanna' do
I just wanna' do
What I wanna' do
When I wanna' do it
I don't really like wasting time
Sometimes I don't even wanna' speak my mind
I keep it bottled like fine wine
Bring me down but I got 9 lives
Like fuck it
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest, yeah yeah
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest
Ok like who's this
At my front door
Go ahead break in
I'm done for
That's what you thought
'Til the gun cocks
Everybody got a plan
Yeah run off
Just face plant
Right in the concrete
Life hits hard
Been since the 90's
I been riding with some nikes
I been vibing since last night so fuck it
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest, yeah yeah
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest
I just wanna' do
What I wanna' do
When I wanna' do it
Hope it doesn't bother you
I'm sorry
I just wanna' do
What I wanna' do
When I wanna' do it
Hope it doesn't bother you
I'm sorry
Yeah
I apologize for my lazy ways
These lazy days
Gonna' pave the way
Ima' ride the wave
'Til I see the shoreline
And waste some more time
Yeah, I'm good at that
Never thought I'd be good at rap
But look at that
I got checks now
It goes to bills
Less stress now uh
Woke up with a cold
My greatest fear is probably getting old
And never living life to the fullest
Here's to a better life bite the bullet
It's a better night
Than last week
Ima' get it right
Don't ask me why
I get so weird now
I've been facing fears now like fuck it
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest, yeah yeah
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest
Yeah
I feel like a different breed
I look at you and see a different me
I look at us and see different trees
With different roots from different seeds
These seasons change
Come and go
You ease my pain
And you never know
Why I stay quiet
I don't know
Maybe that's just how the wind goes
But the wind blows to the northwest
Get me out of this boring nest
I got a lot to get off my chest
You know me
Don't hold your breath
Just hold me
Like you do
When that lightning hits
The roof
I'll pull through with a happy face
This studio is my happy place so fuck it
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest
Gotta hustle
Swear I'm never learning nothing
No discussion
I'm a mess
Got it tatted on my chest
I just wanna' do
What I wanna' do
When I wanna' do it
Hope it doesn't bother you
I'm sorry
I just wanna' do
What I wanna' do
When I wanna' do it
Hope it doesn't bother you
I'm sorry
