Clarity

[Verse 1]
Talking intentions over actions
Brothers trust me with a passion
Unafraid to tell them the truth
Whatever the repercussions
I’m living for clarity
I’ve been way too close to the edge
To live for a salary
Walk the past like a gallery
Mothers calling my phone
This bout to be a long call
Get to asking me about women, I can no longer vouch for
Thoughts on my mind
Let em sink in the wine
I’m tryna be transparent
You can’t negotiate with time
I’ma be here for you
That’s a good enough excuse
For me to embrace the chaos
That falls below the blue
Still love me for my flaws
I fell through yours
Found each other in each other
I’m afraid to give you more
Unsure what I believe in
I needed a way to let go of all of my Demons
Pursuing love
But still ain't found someone to give me reason
To give this up
I’d never settle for less than the feeling
I’m dreaming of

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ma keep it the way I wrote it
Only authentic
These questions are cliff hangers
I’ll have to close my eyes
They listen, they know it’s real
They know how I feel
Sometimes I float in the ink
Until these words sink
Anxieties that I had
Made me the stronger man
Looking in your eyes
Like a galaxy I understand
The devil's tryna tempt me
But my fathers got a bigger plan
Walking back through your footsteps
To the motherland

[Chorus]
Coz when I feel the first raindrop
I’ma look up, and don’t fade away
And I heard you don’t believe
In the things you used to say to me
Coz when I feel the first raindrop
I’ma look up, and don’t fade away
And I heard you don’t believe
In the things you used to say to me

[Verse 2]
My feet dangle over my comfort zone
All these rappers clones
Hard to see their heart through the façade they feel obliged to show
Spend some time up
Then I’m low
Let the feelings go
She just wanna rush
I move slow
So I’m not involved
Sometimes I’m off then I’m on
But my brothers stay
Sometimes I sin
Follow faith
But I always pray
Live like anything can happen, nothing is taken for granted
Don’t mean I won’t take a risk
But won’t pick apples in this garden
Brothers want it for themselves
But it’s bigger than me
I’ll be living for you
15 consecutive weeks
Turning pages that question what you know I’m destined to be
And then I’m back on the music
Bars ruthless
Straight truth
I’ll draw anyone out when I paint my past in the booth
Why are they acting, like I don’t read between lines for a living
I could see the snake in you when it was smiles and finger clicking
My brothers know it’s real
Judge a friend by how they moved in the past
Intentions glow in the dark

[Pre-Chorus]
I’ma keep it the way I wrote it
Only authentic
These questions are cliff hangers
I’ll have to close my eyes
They listen, they know it’s real
They know how I feel
Sometimes I float in the ink
Until these words sink
Anxieties that I had
Made me the stronger man
Looking in your eyes
Like a galaxy I understand
The devil's tryna tempt me
But my fathers got a bigger plan
Walking back through your footsteps
To the motherland

[Chorus]
Coz when I feel the first raindrop
I’ma look up, and don’t fade away
And I heard you don’t believe
In the things you used to say to me
Coz when I feel the first raindrop
I’ma look up, and don’t fade away
And I heard you don’t believe
In the things you used to say to me

Fuck..
