Sometimes I wonder why I make mistakes
But I remind myself I'm human and I learn from the pain
If everybody was content then there would be nothing to say
I would rather feel a little shame than be indifferent
Bars like lemon
Sweet with some filling
Hit the track then some wax to relax cause stalling might kill me
Remember the packs with the holographic the teachers used to retract
I wanted to shine I looked at all the stars for some practice
Was passionate but the rapping was never what I imagined would keep me happy
All into basketball I guess I thought I was tall
But all the signs pointed to mics and applause
I had a gift but never opened the package I guess I'm left with the rapping
We only have today
So won't you go and make the best of it
We only have it made
When we don't need the rest of it
So won't you please be kind yeah
'Cause I can use a little peace of mind
And won't you please remind yourself
It's gonna get better with time
Yeah
It's gonna get better with time
Yo check me out
Yeah
And through these words you see the depths of my soul
Look in my eyes and then you'll know how far I'm willing to go
Get in control of my emotions as I walk in the door
They say the grass is always greener from the opposite scope
Too many no's to let it get to me now
Too many lows to never raise from the ground
It's good to know the tunes I'm making are sound
I'm not competing these feelings will change with seasons
I wish that I could be decent when my demons are out
I want to tell her I love her when she's feeling in doubt
Sometimes I keep emotions tucked like I buttoned it down
But I remind myself I'm human I deserve to be proud
Illuminating the room with a vibe to keep you in tune
Don't assume the worst of my views
You ain't walk a mile in these shoes
I give the credit to Em and Tribe for getting me through
I went from seeds and stems
To fluffy purple to fuse
If you've been fearing the end
Begin by changing your mood
The only way to free our minds is change the thoughts that we choose
So I walk in the booth confessing like it's catholic school
In hopes you'll find a little courage out of nowhere to use
I realize that I'm a burden 'till I flow with the truth
Just keep swimming
We only have today
So won't you go and make the best of it
We only have it made
When we don't need the rest of it
So won't you please be kind yeah
'Cause I can use a little peace of mind
And won't you please remind yourself
It's gonna get better with time
We only have today
So won't you go and make the best of it
We only have it made
When we don't need the rest of it
So won't you please be kind yeah
'Cause I can use a little peace of mind
And won't you please remind yourself
It's gonna get better with time
