Going Left

I guess you could say its a California
A California
Its a California state of mind
Yes we warned ya
Everyone of my mistakes is mine
And its okay for me to own it
Im my own biggest opponent
The addiction of my past is transforming and becoming more vaporized
How is that
Im trying to get my powers back
Im tryin to get the hours back that I have invested
And never seen a return from my very initial investment
Im thinking that I have just learned that Im concerned about
Things that I dont need to be concerned about
I ain't spoke to my momma in weeks
We connect through word of mouth
Speaks through the grapevine
Cuz I can't seem to make time
Cuz I can't seem to slow down (slow down)
And yes I got a smile on my face
But at this point I know how to fake mine
Say cheese for the photo op
And my inner hamster wheel moving forward but going nowhere fast
Is this how gangstas feel?
Face a robocop
Gotta know to stop

It be going left
Unexpected as Im
Running out of breath
So I gotta know
When to stop, and when to go
When to pause, and when to roll
Cuz, it be going left
Unexpected as Im
Running out of breath
So I gotta know
When to stop, and when to go
When to pause, and when to roll

Why do we try to
Hide whats inside
When inside is all we know
Talking bout the things that you dont let show
Guess it all just means that
I got the world on my back
Girl on my mind
God in my heart
Gun on the dask (No dont do it)
Mamma says, baby you runnin to fast
This nicotine come in the nick of time
Nickodemus was a genius to come in the night
And ask how to be saved
I can't be proud of my ways now
Its getting harder to write them down on the page now
Its high noon in my room
With the curtains closed
If these are the brakes I might just let my curtains blow[?]

It be going left
Unexpected as Im
Running out of breath
So I gotta know
When to stop, and when to go
When to pause, and when to roll
Cuz, it be going left
Unexpected as Im
Running out of breath
So I gotta know
When to stop, and when to go
When to pause, and when to roll

Are you here tonight im saying
Are you here tonight im staying
Are you here tonight im saying
Are you here tonight im staying
Im going left
Im going left now
We going left

Who you think you is young blood you up and left
I was on my deathbed, took my last breath
Oh you living nice now
Oh you say blessed
Well good for you
Yeah, good for you
You know the same suckers on the block ain't nothin new
You know I thought youd always be the one to keep it true
You on the west now what you rockin red or blue
Hahaha
You feeling left out cuz you not the gangsta dude
What you smoking incense now
Making up war stories[?]
Talking bout yeah baltimore just ain't for me
Walking with the Lord now, do it for his glory
Left me on the block with a skully and a 40
You used to be the dude selling incense and oils B
I hope they catch you roll and know you ain't about loyalty
If I could do it all agiain I'd prolly leave yo holy[?] in the soil B
And leave you... like you left
Like, like you left me
