[1st Verse]
I sat and waited for the moon to rise
It covered up the sun and when I looked my eyes was hypnotized
Eclipse of my life
Had me dead to rights but gave me sight
Everyday pretending we alive but it was all a lie
(For real)
We barely livin’ as we wait to die
We speeding through our lives
In sixth gear we hit the overdrive
Patience is a virtue we was born to hide
Like inner crimes
Couldn’t wait to grow and now we older shit is never fine
Memories of a child’s innocence we lost and can’t find
I waited for the light to turn green it took a long while
Anxious for a change been waitin’ for it like the summer time
The winter only comes to make us love it when the sun shine
(For real)
[Hook]
I was drivin’ ‘til my dreams
Said a million miles left I had to laugh and turn the key
Yeah, I was prayin’ on my knees
I ain’t seeing nothing change but I still be begging please
Yeah, life been seeming out of reach
Tryna surface something new I couldn’t find inside of me
Yeah, been tryna practice what I preach
Takin’ time to heal myself by holding on so I can see
[2nd Verse]
I sat and waited for the sun to set
I was on a quest
Looked satisfied was giving it my best
I was feelin’ stressed
Weight of the world was on my chest
Shit had me vexed
Knew that I was bound to pass the test
Ain’t easily impressed
Feel like everyone’s a pest
I been goin’ out more but still been watching every step
Niggas hope you trip
On the sideline talkin’ shit
Fingers crossed waiting, wishing you would die in the abyss
We living longer though
Choosin’ where we wanna go
Never got permission we be eating like we Hannibal
Wait and they will handle you
Goin’ full force off the (?)
Threw the touchdown scored another two
[Hook]
I was drivin’ ‘til my dreams
Said a million miles left I had to laugh and turn the key
Yeah, I was prayin’ on my knees
I ain’t seeing nothing change but I still be begging please
Yeah, life been seeming out of reach
Tryna surface something new I couldn’t find inside of me
Yeah, been tryna practice what I preach
Takin’ time to heal myself waitin’ long so I can see
[3rd Verse]
My niggas act up
And pack those sacks inside of fat blunts
Laughed at the past stuff
Sad but we had trust
And that’s all you really needed
Fuck love, it’s just loyalty inside of my regime
Had fire in my eyes, seen things you won’t believe
We was tryna find solace in the jungle of the fiends
There was nothin’ there
I spent years unaware
Gave my time to some corny niggas that ain’t cus I was scared
They was just there
And we ain’t hanging out with statues
Stacks off the last move
Stashed in the back room
Past gloom had to splash on the raft to
Shacked with a cat, true
Smashed in the bathroom
My bag loose
I could spazz on a whack fool
Trap make the pack move
Smacked off the gas fumes
Last few, they don’t make them like the nineties
I’ll be dancing in the rain, niggas know where they can find me
[Hook]
