[Part I]
~#**************#~
[Intro]
~#**************#~
When you wake up aye, in the mornin and then you go bout your day
~#**************#~
And who— who you are, right? Mm-hm
~#**************#~
This— this is how I do my day, I know that the hardest person, the toughest boss that Ive ever had in my life is myself
~#**************#~
And my level of consciousness tells me this, I say, “Well, when you wake in the mornin, I want—, I want my day to have certain things, you feel what Im saying?
~#**************#~
So I— I live off that formula, right? And here, at the end of the day, I see how close I was today, how close I was to be in my own world
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
Meditate to stop all of the brain fog
~#**************#~
Logged out and turned Instagram off
~#**************#~
God whispered, “Take all of them chains off”
~#**************#~
Fuck I spend three hundred thousand on a Range for?
~#**************#~
Validation, what I used to aim for
~#**************#~
Tried to hide the shame with the fame, yall
~#**************#~
Got guilt that drove a nigga insane, yall
~#**************#~
Suicide became one of my main thoughts
~#**************#~
Uber X-ing bitches for a nightcap
~#**************#~
Addicted to the pussy, learning how to fight that
~#**************#~
Jogging in the dark, had to get my sight back
~#**************#~
Cant heal these injuries with a ice pack
~#**************#~
Let me head to therapy and Ill be right back
~#**************#~
I feel alive now, Im on the right track
~#**************#~
Million dollar deal, really looking type whack
~#**************#~

[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Im tryna find a fuck to give about this rap shit in this rigged game
~#**************#~
Treat us like slaves, hand us whips and a big chain
~#**************#~
Its funny how they call masters “masters”
~#**************#~
‘Cause if they own yours, they making money after you die
~#**************#~
Generation gap at my shows
~#**************#~
Gotta feed the little kids more of the Fergie flows
~#**************#~
Been ducking all the drugs, I been fucking all the hoes
~#**************#~
Tryna figure out how to fill this hole up in my soul
~#**************#~
Tryna figure out how to stop all the want
~#**************#~
Can you be a rapper and live your life like a monk?
~#**************#~
I wanna be like Future and drop every month
~#**************#~
But if it aint the vision, God holding my tongue
~#**************#~
Its about instant gratification these days
~#**************#~
Which leave us feeling worthless, no matter the age
~#**************#~
As I get more aware, its hard to stay engaged
~#**************#~
When you notice all your peers aint on the same page
~#**************#~
[Interlude]
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Hold up, lma tell you why lm unhappy
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
Im unhappy about music in its current state
~#**************#~
Im unhappy about my appetite and my current weight
~#**************#~
Im unhappy about my friends and how they handle certain things
~#**************#~
Growing pains make it stressful to go through certain change
~#**************#~
I ever tell you get a job, I aint tryna be lame
~#**************#~
You gotta try everything before you ask me for change
~#**************#~
Money dont grow on trees, especially with the fame
~#**************#~
‘Cause if the ship ever sink, you will tarnish my name
~#**************#~
And act like you was never a part of the blame
~#**************#~
I crippled you by getting you apartments and rings
~#**************#~
When a little bit of struggle can make the hustle engrain
~#**************#~
Its treacherous waters taught you how to swim, but its hard to sustain, stay afloat
~#**************#~
[Outro]
