Trough/Crest... (Interlude)

"What is your biggest hope?
Is it to look in the mirror one day
And realize you're at the bottom?"

[Shotta Spence]
Sick to your stomach doesn't the ride make you
Regretful of the places that your pride take you
"Stick to your stomach," they said. You said thank you
You run to the summit you thought the wind would chase you

But somehow, now you staring at a snail's ankles
Olympic gold perspective turned to Kurt Angle
Your thoughts wrestling in a head full of anger
Your cup overflow like 40 mules and 1 acre

Go head, quit! You used to that shit
You thought that stroke of luck was a God given gift
You think that God's giving gifts out to ordinary kids
That think they nice enough to be on Santa Clause list?

[SaBang]
You never achieve you quitter
You never shoot but them shots delivered
You hold the bow but arrows in a quiver
Better off dead too much to the liver

[Shotta Spence]
I said mothafuck a Grammy bitch I still got my stack
Yellow gold on my teeth but I still lack the plaque
I be flossing in that 4 door beamer fuck a coupe
[SaBang]
We need way more seats for the niggas in the troupe

[Shotta Spence]
I been tryna do it big, tryna find out what to do
But it's kinda hard to fly when you sticking to your roots
If I never touch a cloud I'll still roll up all this loud
If I never get my crown I'm still the king of my town

Doing donuts in the Porsche like a merry-go-round
Walk inside the store to spend, I don't go in there to browse
[SaBang]
I said bitch this ain't lint busting out my denim trous'
I talk shit cuz I win bitch I ain't Ronda Rousey
(Uh)

Please excuse my French, when I'm out in public bent
Know this just may be complex, confidence is just a tint
And them tints do they job, real me a real problem
Roots close to you but you just not yourself at the bottom

[Seph Pierre]
(piano and sax break)
That was a wrong chord
...oh okay

[Kakuyon]
The darkness turns me on
(Yeah) and the fire burns me gone
Enlighten me, turn me off
I'll see when we crest this trough

Ohh pick apart the darkest heart
You'll find it barren, stark
Just give it a spark

Ohh in the night a frightening sight
Eclipse the ever brightest light
La la la la la
(searching for the light)

You are never far but I cannot see where you are
Ohh I don't wanna know where you go

No difference whether my eyes are open or closed
...

"What is your biggest fear?
Is it to look in the mirror one day
And realize you're at the top?"
