Scare You

The road less traveled not gold it’s all gravel
Burdens on your own back, no pack camel
Every step you take is a risk, mad gambles
Everybody ready to judge, mad gavels
Everything is dark, no torches no candles
Make it by the skin of your own tooth enamel
Win the war but often leave the battle in shambles
Come across a lot you never thought you could handle
When nobody is before you or beside you
Ain’t nobody done it so nobody can advise you
No one elsе is doing it so there’s no one to rеlate to
You think you could be the first so lots of people hate you
Wanna see you falter
Hate to think that they live in a system you could alter
Luckily that’s a fabrication we could never fall for

Anytime you make a mention
Of you straying from convention
People start with building fences
People start with building tension, voicing worries
They want to voice these worries in a hurry
They feel like they’re super necessary
Should you happen to ignore em they may lose they whole decorum
They may even go as fars to clown you in a public forum
You rejecting the experience of adhering to the norm really strikes a chord
They think you calling em boring
Of course
All they see is walls and not doors
They just move away and not towards
Those are their problems not yours
And not mines
Or like minds
Think of this as a wink of the eye
It all could change in the blink of an eye but

YOUR PARENTS ARE TRYNA SCARE YOU
DOCTORS ARE TRYNA SCARE YOU
STATISTICS ARE TRYNA SCARE YOU
YEAH YOU

TEACHERS ARE TRYNA SCARE YOU
CULTURE IS TRYNA SCARE YOU
COMFORT IS TRYNA SCARE YOU
YEAH YOU

One day they like “don’t quit that job you don’t like you need insurance ‘cause you’re gonna get sick”
Next day they don’t let someone know how they feel ‘cause they too frightened that they gonna get dissed
One day they like “that relationship might make you unhappy, but you don’t wanna wind up alone “
Next day they like “this is never where i wanted to wind up. Feel like putting a gun to my dome.”
‘Cause there’s nothing more dangerous than playing it safe
It’s a trap you need to make an escape
Skate
Break
Don’t wait
Making moves with no faith seals your fate
There ain’t no gains playing low stakes
It's a damn shame tryna save face
Tryna act sane
Nome sane
Safe
