Tryna stay tough, Tryna stay on this earth
Tryna call your bluff, cause I know what I'm worth
Sick of this stuff, only got a few bucks
To spend on whatever therapy sucks
Caught my second wind, just as I begin
My foes jump started much to my chagrin
Head starts are never quite what they seem
You wear down by the time I'm coming clean
I'm under the gun now I feel the burning sun
No shadows left to hide what I've done
Save your constructs, and your lame aw shucks
The things that I've done will all conflux, because
I'm the same damn man at the end of the day
Even with this egg dripping from my face
I'll be your shoulder to cry on, shoulder to lean
But I warn you now I'm a bit obscene
It's on me, the words I said
It's on me, left you all for dead
It's on me, ain't that your epithet
It's on me, but I think I'm ok with that
I'm going, for the gold, not made, from a mold
I bought, the blindfold, for the world I've sold, I've got a
Knack, for this place, & I like, your face
I wont, fall back, in this endless race, I moved
Farther, from the water, played father to your fodder
Raised 3, damn fine, good honest daughters
Not waiting, for your calls, not baiting, on your balls
I'm explaining, the falls, of neanderthals,
All this crap, that I know, holds back, my growth
Y'all are holding back, although you took oath
To protect, yourself, not sell your soul for wealth
I'm here to help, boost your mental health
It's on me, the words I said
It's on me, left you all for dead (it's on me!)
It's on me, ain't that your epithet (it's on me!)
It's on me, but I think I'm ok with that
