People Watching

[Verse 1]
Fresh up out depression got me feeling mello hype
I be sealing feelings like my dealings, hella tight
I don’t like nobody but in public I’m polite
When the money match the motive, I’ma show you what I’m like
Larry David honesty ain’t curbing my replies
Killing those with kindness more deserving of demise
You ever been in company of people you despise
I feel like that every time I take a walk outside
Weekdays run my errands so that I don’t run into you
Asking what I do for work, I don’t care what you do
You moved to the city for the scene that you erase
I moved to New York cause flights is cheap from JFK
I was cool in DC out in PG round the way
Your coolness smell of newness yeah that receipt say today
Old you or the new you keep both you out my space
Glad to see you blossom, do I look like I’m a vase

[Chorus]
Apologies for the way I come across
I hate everything for no reason just because
An introvert at heart, I appreciate the love
Please don’t feel the need to show it, knowing's good enough
Became an entertainer as to hide in plain sight
It’s the one on ones that I succumb to stage fright
My rhymes are without filter in real life I keep it hush
I feel I’ve said enough it's time to step back on the mic

[Verse 2]
I’m not babysitting for adults who live in fear of rejection or can’t deal with being wrong
Or think that going in directions not preferred is something weird
Cause your acceptance to conform is so that you don’t get compared
God forbid, if you’re different you’re a threat because you dared
Well if thats how you feel when I’m my presence say you scared
Please don’t come around me flexing with the energy of feds
Acting like I got wire way you watching what I wear
What’s left that’s unique, we all subscribe to pre-prepared
I used to have a story 'til it leaked and got re-shared
I know it’s not as lonely when you think that someone cares
Exactly why the reason though is still up in the air
I’ve people watched from steps at Union station to the square
And I can’t help but notice what’s distinct's becoming scares
We gladly trade our freedom for convenience cause it’s comfort over quality a burden to think logically

[Chorus]
Apologies for the way I come across
I hate everything for no reason just because
An introvert at heart, I appreciate the love
Please don’t feel the need to show it, knowing's good enough
Became an entertainer as to hide in plain sight
It’s the one on ones that I succumb to stage fright
My rhymes are without filter in real life I keep it hush
I feel I’ve said enough it's time to step back on the mic
