Saving my thoughts for a better time
Saving my time for a better thought
Saving my mind for the day it don't grind
And the weight of my life let's a little off
Cuz it's been heavy as ever I used to head to my Jetta
Back in 2011 to drive and silence whatever was goin' on
Now I don't feel as close to Sean I don't feel as close to Soup
I don't feel as close to anyone I said was in the crew
And it's my fault feel their eyeballs shift
From the other side of the drywall shit's getting tired y'all
Should a been productive with my time off
Friends who said I shoulda went to Taiwan: True
'Stead I'm writing my songs, that no one ever listens to
It's tough because I only feel connection when I'm missing you
But I don't wanna grab a beer, 'cuz I don't like the atmosphere
Of anywhere I go, rather have it all alone, singing
Sad songs
'Cuz that's what I need, and that's all I mean
When I tell you please, don't know how to be
But I'm feeling free, like shit, finally
Uhhuh
I feel at peace, just being me
So let a kid be
Uhhuh
At least I can dream
Uhhuh, Uhhuh
While y'all still sleep, at least I got dreams
But everything ain't what it seems, I swore I could be
Someone on this Earth, the gift and the curses
Tryna be perfect, old habits always resurface, shit serves a purpose
Trust me
But if y'all don't feel the same, I don't feel no shame
They say how you 'bout to bench press to slow songs crazy
While I was playing Frank, they want Bone Thugz' Blaze It
Swinging for the fence, gotta choke up, baby
Or feel the vibrations like you're Carlos Correa
Bet my downstairs neighbor hates the way the floor be rockin'
From the speaker, and the feet that's tapping every time I write a feature
Play a beat, or freestyle rap, their pom-poms wavin'
Like it's Corsicana, focused on manana
Ain't no aur revoirs towards tomorrow, 'nor a ra-ra
Me and my medulla oblongata ain't scared of nada
So buck up, or you'll get run up, they raise the Sun up
And I'm the son of a long line of veterans
And far-sighted relatives who all hype benevolence
And I should thank for all my intelligence to stay out of the petty shit the present brings
'Cuz my future's looking awesome
Stay away from shame like I'm Emmy Rossum, still forever blossoming
'Til I shine like the sign out in Gotham
Never been the type to rock a costume, same guy on the town as my apartment
And everything in life has a compartment, until you start
Sifting out the prints from all the inks up in the cartridge, to paint a portrait, and it's me
But you can't tell the art from the poster
Can't see the real from the fake love, no mistake love
'Cuz I only hear my heart when it's broken
Still putting Tarts in the toaster, still think I'll start when I'm older
Still face my cards like it's Poker
Ace in my cardigan, straight but I'm guarding my
Place 'til I take off and market that I just make
Sad songs
'Cuz that's what I need, and that's all I mean
When I tell you please, don't know how to be
But I'm feeling free, like shit, finally
Uhhuh
I feel at peace, just being me
So let a kid be
Uhhuh
At least I can dream
Uhhuh, Uhhuh
While y'all still sleep, at least I got dreams
But everything ain't what it seems, I swore I could be
Someone on this Earth, the gift and the curses
Tryna be perfect, old habits always resurface, shit serves a purpose
Trust me
But if y'all don't feel the same, I don't feel no shame
And if y'all need someone to blame, throw dirt on my name
Like I can't run up the game, I'll stay in my lane
But you and me ain't the same, I take that shit to the bank
Take that shit to the bank, like I'm out at Wells Fargo
Chilling out in Fargo, feeling well, hell as far as I know
I could probably go by tomorrow, gotta see this out though
Never gonna stop for the outro
