Day Before

The day before I dropped
I failed a test and ain't acknowledge it
Been a couple months
And now it's still fuck a scholarship
Tryna figure out who all these
Rappers got a problem with
Cause if it's ASF then I'll
Solve it bitch, I promise this
Never had a nigga stepping
To me on some nonsense
And if I ever do then I can
Illustrate the consequence
Bruise bruise black eye
A room full of black guys
You got a new crew?
Here's a blue's clue: that's why
High school senior
Full time dreamer
Looking for a Spanish mami
Call her Rosalina
Long as she geed, she ain't
Boppin for the team yo but
If so, fuck it, I'll act like I never seen her
Ain't tryna be mean but
That's how I proceed
I'm steady getting this cream
Hit my beeper for a feature
Seen some shit growing up
You would never believe
But I stay based, still say grace before I eat bruh
I'm steady on this path
Trying to do the math
Figure the formula to
Try and recreate the past
Go back to '95
Back when I was alive
Now I'm dead in the soul
Holding on to my mind
I hear these demons calling
They know my fucking name
But I ain't falling for it
I know the fucking game
No I can't right my wrongs
Long as I'm writing songs
I'll let these niggas know
The top is where I belong
They tell me I'm insane
I'm telling them the same
They just dont know my drive
They haven't felt my pain
Remember I'm an artist
Back when I was starving
A lost boy swam with sharks
And remained buoyant
A smart boy had to grow up
And remain boyish
He saw toys turn to guns
But remained loyal
At some point he stopped
Listening to mom and pops
The news cut through their
Hearts like tomahawks
Now I'm on my grown man
Started now I'm finishing
Shaky on delivery but
I'm 'bout to deliver this
Yeah they call me Sage
In the mirror spitting lyrics and we
Drink champagne 'til we
Fucking up our liver, shit
Muchas gracias
To all the impost-e-ahs
Though I coulda dealt with
Just a little less dramatica
Blowing so much Marley
Woulda thought us Rastafarian
But we ain't complicated
We just in this bitch to party, hun
