Metamorphosis

[Verse 1: Lyte]
Problems, you know that I got 'em
But I won't rot at the bottom
I feel like the Joker from Gotham
Lyte really out of his noggin, keep watch, keep watch
Look at all the scrubs that do love to box and detox (Detox)
Time to get rid of them drugs and toxins
So I'm plottin', never stoppin' 'til I'm reachin' the top
Tell me do you understand what I'm speakin' or not?
Pay attention 'cause you floppin' and I'm teachin' the flock
Failure's not an option when a priest on your block
And I ain't lyin', I'm grindin' tryin' to pay bills for brokers
Perfect timing, I'm shining try to make mills, but no
No denying, I'm dying, my rhyming skills are dope
But kills the hope, fuck it I've got pills to cope
I need to (Need to) chill and smoke
Come real with folks 'til I'm ill or croak
Bitch I'm still the goat
You heard me, heard me, 'til I'm dead or laid up on that gurney
Forever my team riding dirty
So follow the Lyte and come join this journey

[Chorus: Madame Macabre]
I've had my fair share of sorrows (Sorrows)
I've lived others' dreams but not my own (My own)
So here's to my brighter tomorrow (Tomorrow)
I'm so much more out on my own (My own)
Can you hear me now? (Can you hear me now?)
I've become every doubt you ever had in me
When you see me now (When you see me now)
I'll be so much more than what you thought I'd be

[Verse 2: Lyte]
Bitch I'm on a mission, never stopping the vision
Now listen, can't you see a ninja in the perfect position?
I'm certain the mission ain't gonna need a principal mission
To tell me this another step and put the trick in submission
I'm working the system, I'm hurting you, wishing that I would fall flat
Get back up and do again, that's what they all lack
Never giving no dedication is what you call that
No more waiting patient, my headache can make a small crack
Placing on the ball, bet you're numb to pain
To dumb your brain, what are you umm? Insane
I got none to gain, this rum to blame
It's time for this bum to change and run the game (Nanana)
From underpaid to hunger pains
I feel that something to say so I come to claim
And if not that drum will bang
I don't give a fuck about a ton of fame
Trust me though (Trust me though), it must be solved (It must be solved)
If I slip, my clique will pick me up and dust me off
And put me back on the path 'cause this road
We made it whether I'm blowed or faded, that's a no debatin' bitch

[Chorus: Madame Macabre]
I've had my fair share of sorrows (Sorrows)
I've lived others' dreams but not my own (My own)
So here's to my brighter tomorrow (Tomorrow)
I'm so much more out on my own (My own)
Can you hear me now? (Can you hear me now?)
I've become every doubt you ever had in me
When you see me now (When you see me now)
I'll be so much more than what you thought I'd be

[Verse 3: Lyte]
Got an angel and a demon in my ear
And I don't know who to take advice from
And it's all becoming so crystal clear
That I'm cold as ice numb
And this life comes with a price and I sacrifice tons
Just to live a nice one, I'm fightin' just like Tyson
I'ma roll this pair of dice 'til paradise come
Telling me to quit and give it up, your advice dumb
Working years of life away for something that ain't guaranteed
Apparently they swear to God they care but disappear and leave
Y'all here to breathe, where is he? Seriously I dare he pleads
Tell me to my face that I'm the one that you can bear to see
Now answer real, hit me hard just like a cancer feel
Same shit, different day, look at me stuck in this hamster wheel
In circles like a racetrack for the money I need ASAP
In a place that I can be myself can you tell me where that place at?
It's right here, it's a lightyear, we finally won baby
I put that on my son, my life done took a one-eighty

[Chorus: Madame Macabre]
I've had my fair share of sorrows (Sorrows)
I've lived others' dreams but not my own (My own)
So here's to my brighter tomorrow (Tomorrow)
I'm so much more out on my own (My own)
Can you hear me now? (Can you hear me now?)
I've become every doubt you ever had in me
When you see me now (When you see me now)
I'll be so much more than what you thought I'd be
