[Intro]
This the type of shit that (goes through my mind), yeah
This the type of shit that goes through my mind, ay
Ay
[Verse 1]
Lately I’m taking my pain, and making it fuel, I’m talking bout tear gas
All in the county collect, calling my momma and holding my tears back
I wish I could erase all of the trauma, build a time machine, get them years back
I had to free my mind from all of the infinite power that fear has
Persevere past all the fake shit, on a clear path, I can see that you ain’t shit
You be where niggas act weird at, I don’t wanna be near that
I get anxious, I wanna talk about growth
You wanna talk about drama I don’t wanna hear that
How come evеry time I’m happy when I look at you, you always appear mad?
How comе you blame everyone for your problems but never go check where the mirror’s at?
Never ask for your opinion, but for some reason you just go volunteer that
You should just shut up and listen
I’m the one fucking the chicken
Can’t nothing fuck up the business
I can’t be stuck in the system
I can’t get caught, slipping or tripping when out in the field, I stay on my feet
I’m playing in cleats, I’m playing for keeps, I’m paving the way for my peeps
Head underwater out here, just trying to wait in the deep
Finally awake, no way imma sleep
I been through a lot, that’s saying the least
I’ll tell you off top, don’t play with my peace, sheesh
Don’t play with my peace
Don’t play with my-
Yeah, uh
I been through a lot, that’s saying the least
I’ll tell you off top, don’t play with my peace
[Verse 2]
Woah, woah, woah, woah, ay
I know you’re out there somewhere
I been looking for you for quite some time (I’ve been looking for you)
All the faces and places out there
You’re the only one I can’t seem to find (I know)
I know you’re out there somewhere
I’m the only one you always leave behind (I know)
I know you’re out there somewhere
I need you to come, help free my mind
I know I'm not the only one (I know I’m not the only one)
I know I’m not the only one looking for you
I’m not the only one (Know I’m not the only one)
I know I'm not the only one looking for you
I know you’re out there somewhere
I been looking for you for quite sometime (I been looking for you)
All the faces and places out there
You’re the only I can’t seem to find
I’ve wasted so long out there
I don’t know how I ain’t never see the signs
You were never out there
You been here with me all the time
[Outro]
Time
Oh, time (You’ve always been within me)
Time, oh, time
Oh, time (I don’t need to search any longer)
Oh, time, time
Time, time (Finally got you)
Time, time
Time (I’ll always fight for you)
Time, time
