[Verse]
Ayy
Now days the pain follows me, deal with trauma privately
I don't wanna be a burden, I handle things defiantly
Spent a decade searching for a higher power guiding me
Figured out that faith is not up there, that it's inside of me
Act with execution, what's a plan with zero action?
Faced with bad habits knowing it's a magnet to my imbalance
I'm somewhere between confidence and arrogance
The middle ground is treacherous, I work on getting out of it
Pops is looking down, I feel him every time the sun shinе
Back to being unsigned
I only got my bloodline with mе going forward
Smokin' cookie 'til we dumb high
Heard you taking shots, we pulled up on 'em, they was gun shy
2PM in Rome, we at the chapel eatin' sun dried tomato's and a plum wine
Life been like a movie, I don't know how long the runtime
Hope it's an extended cut
But when I die, download my consciousness on to a thumb drive (Yeah)
And upload it to the masses when I pass
All my sets is holographic, life's as real as you imagine (Okay)
My Jewish girl was tight 'ccause I ain't link her on the sabbath
But it's Friday and I got a few robins I need to bask in
Play in traffic if you wanna play the faction
We don't act, we gettin' active
Stacking cash and dodging taxes
My father was a Catholic, never taught me how to practice
But with music I'm a Baptist (I'm a Baptist)
Christen all these fucking tracks I bless these raps with
[Chorus]
Standing in the middle of the mosh
Both sides cave in on the drop (Caving in on me)
Praying to my pops and the gods (Pray to God, please help me out)
Can you spare me for once? (Spare me for once)
Ayy, yeah
Can you spare me for once? (Can you spare me for once?)
Ayy, I ain't asking for much, no
[Bridge]
We watch history, we make history
And one day we become it
Drop some buckets and then we kick the bucket
Just tryna reach the peak before I finally plummet
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Standing in the middle of the mosh
Both sides cave in on the drop (Caving in on me)
Praying to my pops and the gods (Pray to God, please help me out)
Can you spare me for once? (Spare me for once)
Ayy, yeah
Can you spare me for once? (Can you spare me for once?)
Ayy, I ain't asking for much, no
