Potion

Hook:

Mixing up the potion
Sip it like devotion
Burning up the ash
I could use some lotion..
Put that on my back
Easy to drown
But I'm never overdosing
...
I'm simply over hoping

Verse 1:

Messages in my inbox
Half siblings tryna reconnect
I have a sibling
I don't need a next
And if that nigga loved us
Why'd he disrespect?
I can't be going down on that same path..
Kids struggling Just to name dad..
Only visit when he cut a check
And always doing shit to make my mama mad

I can't breathe!
My brain was sick, I needed IV..
I always dreamed to hit the league
And now I'm gone
They tryna find me
They say they wanna see the boy succeed..
I'm tryna keep my past behind me
They only wanna see me bleed!

They only wanna see me

Mixing up the potion

Easy to drown
But I'm never overdosing
...
I'm simply over hoping

Verse 2:

And I was tryna be an optimist
But this society is set
So that niggas tryna make it
Lose to offices
And officers
It's all the same
They take yo soul
And make you blame where you call home
Or go insane

Just feed a nigga lies
They plotting my demise
They shooting at the stars..
Ain't they ain't never seen disguise

So I hide my feelings
They won't never kill him
Unless they look into to his eyes
See just how I'm feeling

And my mind ain't militant
I just know my melanin
And my soul is gold
So they treat me with jealousy
For my...

(So I'm just)
