“Genius” is the eighth and final track on my new EP “The Unattainable State of Mind”. It is the outro to my EP and speaks of my personal feelings towards my music, and towards others who aspire to do great things but are detained by feelings of denial.
[Verse 1]
It's a shame that too many people
Will go so unkown
Cause' their genius isn't shown
Given up, cause no one gave them hope
And what they are just isn't spoke
The broken will stay broke
[Pre-Chorus]
Gotta keep on workin’ grindin’ motivatin’
Break the mold and find a way in
Take the chance with no complainin’
You’re the genius. Show who'll make it
Workin’ grindin’ motivatin’
Break the mold and find a way in
Take the chance ignore the hatin’
[Chorus]
Don't let them break your genius
Don't let them break your genius
Genius
Don't let them break your genius
Don't let them break your genius
Genius
[Verse 2]
It's a shame your talent is brought down
But you will rise up from the ground
And like a king you'll claim your crown
You've broken off, and parted from the mold
And now your story will be told
Dug through the Earth and found your gold
[Pre-Chorus]
Gotta keep on workin’ grindin’ motivatin’
Break the mold and find a way in
Take the chance with no complainin’
You’re the genius. Show who'll make it
Workin’ grindin’ motivatin’
Break the mold and find a way in
Take the chance ignore the hatin’
[Chorus]
Don't let them break your genius
Don't let them break your genius
Genius
Don't let them break your genius
Don't let them break your genius
Genius
[Verse 3]
You see, I’m only 16
And I don’t really know if there’s someone listening
But Imma keep going, do what I do
Cause’ honestly, I don’t know what else I can do
Yeah, This music’s all I’m good for
If this doesn’t open up doors
Might as well not live anymore
Cause’ I don’t know what else I’m good for
And yeah, it’s kinda sad to think about it
But at least Imma do it and not think about it
Cause’ I know lots of people that just dream about it
But Imma keep on working til’ I speak about it
Life has changed me
Rearranged me
But imma keep on singing
Til’ I can provide for the parents that raised me
And Imma tell em’
How much I love em’
Cause’ they gave me all I wanted
Won’t put no one else above em’
I love em’
Yeah, the same goes for both my brothers
Cause’ they gave me all my cover
And we’ll always have each other
I love ya’
And when I’m going out
And when I see that crowd
You’ll always be by my side
You’ll always be around
But that’s if I ever make it
Cause’ honestly, I’m not gonna try to fake it
I got a lot of worries that I wish I could shake
And I got a lot of habits that I wish I could break
So future me
Sorry if I make some mistakes
And we don’t end up with the dreams that we had when we were awake
Yeah
But hopefully
That’s how it’s s’pose to be
And the girl that I love
Will still be close to me
You see, I’m only 16
And i’m feeling kinda like I’m stuck in between
But one things for certain, I’m one of a kind
Cause' I’ve reached the unattainable state of mind
