DA'FLAME - THE KEY Lyrics

They say patience is key, but I'm gonna break the lock
I'm different in this industry, man don't put me in a box
I got my own identity, y'all should stay true or just stop
I found my own recipe the best thing I did was to take my shot
And yes I failed, but I tried again
God I can't die in vain
Outside I'm looking like I'm shining, but inside there's pain
I got to hold this down for real why would I whine it's lame
I don't sleep much and I think a lot I guess that's why I'm drained
But I'm not panicking
Opened my mind now I see clearly what is happening
They tryna bring me in the darkness like I'm Anakin
But I fight back no I can't stay still like a mannequin
Life's beautiful, but it's a journey
I'm such an open book that now I see they tryna burn me
I'm defending the truth, but I'm an artist, no attorney
But will it get to shine before I die, I'm kind of worry
I pray I'm good for people and even after I'm buried
DaFlame
Uh, yeah
Man I'm back at it
I'm feining for these moments like a crack addict
I'm always a pacifist while some are way too mad it's sick
I don't talk to people all that much they're just some fanatics
Y'all slow like on the activist, I'm coming like a catalyst
Just watch the kid, I'm not wack at this
My soul is in flame it's not extinguishing
I work way too much it feel so wrong like something's been missing
I just want some respect, cause I'm a man I got that thing within
I cannot fold under pressure I will tell you when I'm finishing (woo)
Not now
I shut up for the most part, but now I done got loud
I was silent, but I was tired to hide in the pot clouds
Tryna find an answer, I was screaming God how
I just had to open my mind
I really been down bad, but now I'm hoping to shine
With or without you people I'll be going real high
I got to suffer first, but then I'll be glowing in time
It's life!
Yeah
It's a matter of patience
Everybody will have their time to shine baby
