your love is shining on me
your love is blinding and sweet
your love is shining on me
your love is blinding and sweet
i don't wanna play with these bitches leave me down for the kill
i'm a sheep in the trenches i'm a wolf in the field
stay outside the pandemic but you're paranoid still
it's alive in your headache it's a part of the drill
baby steps
all the things you said all the things you said
shoved inside my chest deep inside my chest deep inside my chest
i don't wanna play with these bitches leave me down for the kill
i'm a sheep in the trenches i'm a wolf in the field
stay outside the pandemic but you're paranoid still
it's alive in your headache it's a part of the drill

it's quiet
too quiet
it's quiet
too quiet
no peace in my quiet of late
the silence has been violence of late, yea
that silence and riots at night, yea
and outside we riot at night, yea
set that shit on fire
set that shit on fire
watch it burn, burn, burn, yea
set that shit on fire
watch it burn, burn, burn
life is a stage you're not getting free
feel alive when i ride, tap into 3
feeling the wave, moving my feet, my vibe is a vibe, tap into the 3
playing the keys, glow in the dark, up in the wave
growing my wings, i'm growing my wings
growing my wings, growing my wings
i'll buy one for you
i'm yearning for your touch
still ain't heard from you
yea, i reminisce
i don't really miss it
this loneliness
has thrown all of my sense out the window
it's too quiet, i've been losing my mind
switch places cuz i'm not for real
set that shit on fire
watch it burn, burn, burn, yea
set that shit on fire
watch it burn, burn, burn
my soul is solar while my heart is polar
i miss my momma while i'm at the MoMA
mind is focused, living in the moment
who's the homies when the homies are homeless?
who's my people before the people?
who you see in the game? is you see-through?
who's my folks before the hoes and n--as for real?
set that shit on fire
watch it burn, burn, burn, yea
set that shit on fire
watch it burn, burn, burn
wake up!

i don't want to be alone anymore
miss the room shake
i miss having you next to me
telling me that everything is perfect this moment
take it slow
i know you but right now i don't know what's gonna happen anymore
feel the room shake
take me back there
i know there's more there waiting for me
the silence and the room
can't take me back to you
can't take this anymore
take this anymore

thoughts racing,
one track mind
tripped over a couple hurdles,
still made the finish line
spending time relaying message,
talking in circles
why they sprinting for attention
running round with no purpose?
on the track i field
keeping them on they heels
cheap thrill mean nothing if the love ain't real
don't meddle with silver soles
cuz i got a heart of gold
with feet made of bronze
i'm a god with no hope
so i write like walking on ice and cleats
put my life in the lines when i write to the beat
man this ain't for defeat
this the feat
like walking barefoot in the street
sometimes you gotta reach til you hit your peak
lowkey when i'm riding through the city
??? they said i'm filthy
i'm bout respect
????
if my youngest crash out it's a wreck
????
i took a one-way
??? monday through sunday
they say they with me
but i know they not
i ain't with that sucker shit
it'll get you shot
i came from ???
i ain't one of these n--as that's talking about what they had
they said be careful what you wish
i always played my part
??? since the start
just live your life cuz you can't get that back
??? with a penny turning into racks
bummer turning into summer
turn into another
just a little longer
i've been tryna hold out
gonna hate it when it's cold out
be a while, don't burn out
you ain't sure and i got no doubt
i'm just starting at my breakfast all day
listening to Brahms and Beyonce
careful what you wish, happy holidays
careful what you wish for--it might just stay this way
that's ok
either way

wake up!
wake up!
wake up!
wake up!
wake up!
hear the church bells ringing
i'm singing freedom
we live in modern enslavement
i'm exercising my demons
i'm splitting the congregation
i done caught the holy ghost on these motherfuckers
the spirit is in me
father to son, i'll bury my enemies
we a dynasty compared to the Kennedys
but more Black, with more straps
i mean they barely could kill me
i'm immortal
bitch you ain't walking in these here Jordans
size nine and a half
tell me who your favorite
i'm Kurt Vonnegut
promise i'll slaughter all 5
running out of the ride
with a Louis Vuitton bag
a lot of yall looking real performative
(doing what?)
sitting, thinking
way done with that
wake up!
sleep
eat
pass out

I used to go out a lot
I still felt lonely then
But not the way that I'm feeling now
Now I miss talking loud
At least I'm still in love
I used to go out
I used to go out
I used to go out
At least I'm still in love
It's more than I could want
I've been losing my mind
I've been losing my mind
