When you hit a wall, they go AWOL
Different shit in the same stall
Can’t keep writing the same songs
Nights are short, but the days are long
And I’m tryin’ my best to keep it together
L.A. born, can’t deal with stormy weather
Honestly torn, could’ve done much better
Cuz I’m a capital A when it comes to letters
Artist in chains, my consciencetethered
Jiminy Cricket, I’m a conscious terror
Invisible like I’m the constant wearer
Resurrecting dead like the ring bearer
Holden, chasing Amy forever
Inhale-exhale ‘till my brain stem’s severed
And I’m no Drake, don’t call me clever
Less “Take Care” and more “Hell’s Winter”
No Burroughs itching for a fix
Social Anxiety's tryna to carve a niche
Didn’t get this far to slow down and quit
I came in this game to get rich
And I don’t mean from the almighty dollar
Mean in world tours and Facebook followers
And fans in the crowd who aren’t afraid to holler
Along to the chorus of “MTHRFCKR”
Makin' a comeback just like Chris Tucker
My ass is going big, better pucker
Rain on your parade, better run for cover
Step aside, I don’t got time for bluffers
Diamond in a baggie, I’m a jewel runner
Pip in my headphones, what a stunner
Soarin’ like an eagle just like my brother
Not another rapper tryin’ to downplay the hunger
