[Hook]
Yo, life be movin' way too quick some times
I be tryna settle down for a moment
To reflect on what be goin' on
But then I be feelin' like
There ain't no time to be waitin' on
This is it, this is the only life we got
I be saying that, but I'm still tryna' figure that out
So what gives?
[Verse 1]
Been tryna' get my shit straight 2018
On my grind by my muthafuckin' lone
Gotta get into the zone yuh
It don't matter what time of the day
I be tryna' get the K like what's missin' after J
Smokin' J after J got the mix up on replay
Soundscapin' all these tracks and now wе gotta lead the way
Boogie down to thе bay take a trip to Bombay
2K in a day throw it like a bouquet
I'm the real duce I don't do what you say
Money stretchin' like the wings on young blue jay
Big flavor on these wings cause we make it gourmet
Broad day make a scene on the block & Broadway
Tryna' push up on a better future earnin' my stripes
Do it right through these times takin' action through the night
Ain't no sleep on my part we just tryna' win the fight
There's a war goin' on for your muthafuckin' mind
You inclined to believin' everything that's false signs
Hive minded stay protected by the fact that they online
Don't be cryin' when you get called out you fallin' into line
You a dime in a dozen I'ma dozen of the dimes
No gas just electric when we ride the Tron bike
Only pushin' for the better future for our fuckin' rights
I don't care about agendas I'm just pushin' in my prime
Doin' me doin' right havin' one hell of a time yeah
[Hook]
Man the only thing is love can be so complicated
You be spending so much time tryna' get it right
With a person that you just wanna keep spending more time with
Only to not be so sure how they even feel about you in the end
And that always leaves you feeling like you got a hole in your heart
Feeling like you forgot that it's still beating, it's intact, but it still hurt
So what gives?
[Verse 2]
So what gives, I'm just really tryna' learn how to live
All these boys up in the lot, they be capping up a lot
I'm just tryna' shoot my shot and see how you gon' really feel
All these expectations running through my head
Was it something that I said? If I hit you will you leave me on read
Really try to keep it short and sweet cause I can't really do it
Gotta Camelback across the desert sand get the memo
I'ma needa see the world 'fore I settle for another
I just need some time to push the little things
I just gotta do my thang I just gotta let 'em know
I'ma go out with a bang I'ma go out with a bang
By the time I'm fucking 30 I'ma live it hella' gorgeous
By the forest with the gorges eating up a bowl of porridge
And recording to the chorus shawty saying she a Taurus
Only tour I know is seeing where we souring to the moon
Outta' here, stratosphere I'm see another day yeah
[Hook]
It's not even like
It's not even that hard
It's just always easier said than done
Someone's always tryna' condition you
To think how they would
But you never truly know unless you're
Going through it yourself
Only you know what's best for your mental health
I'm still tryna' figure that out
