The Man Without a Face

I, grew up
Too late
Said I'd be great
Instead I'm turnin gray
Stuck in
This place
That's just how I'll stay
The man without a face
Runnin
Hidin
Tryna find my way
Before the end of the day
Stuck in
This place
That's just how I'll stay
The man without a face

I, became the subject and not the object
But y'all don't see that, cause I don't flex too much
I sit in studios and try and rest up my menti
I should be goin out tryna strut my stuff
I've been runnin shit on every single paper I touch
Been makin' paper lately but I be steady savin' it up
Man I ain't spendin it much, to busy diggin a cut
It ain't luck, I've fuckin earned this rumplestilskin touch
But what's it gonna cost me
I ain't used to drinkin' coffee
And all of these women sloppy
I really be pushin off me
I don't know the fuck I'm nodding
When they tell me that they see nothing different, eyes must be cloudy
Cause when I look in the mirror I don't see that boy
I see something different but I don't know if I should build or destroy

I, grew up
Too late
Said I'd be great
Instead I'm turnin gray
Stuck in
This place
That's just how I'll stay
The man without a face
Runnin
Hidin
Tryna find my way
Before the end of the day
Stuck in
This place
That's just how I'll stay
The man without a face

The beat breaks down but I won't
Been buildin up my walls for too long, but I ain't sunk yet
Moat around the greatest cause I need the space man no disrespect
But I've let a lot of people in that left me full of regret
Content with this type of story as long as it keeps maturing
And that's the issue
Time gonna leave me on the floor for another one
Space moving past me, while I'm cuddled up and cold

Time is runnin out as I go spew my guts
Space is runnin out as I be fillin up my cup
Time is runnin out I'm tryna cop this dub I know that
Space is runnin out I'm tryna fill this club

What's left for me
Nothing left for me
Can't rely on the world
Can't rely on a girl
I hear me speak
I see me move
But I don't know
If the movement is staying true
Standin' on a rooftop waitin' for my mind to set me free
Standin' on a rooftop hopin' Imma' be all I can be
Standin' on a rooftop waitin' for my mind to let me go
Standin' on a rooftop hopin' Imma' find my way back home
What's left for me
Nothin left for me
I just want my peace
In this peaceless world I know
Where to go, the air is cold, the ground is froze, I'm scared to go

I, grew up
Too late
Said I'd be great
Instead I'm turnin gray
Stuck in
This place
That's just how I'll stay
The man without a face
Runnin
Hidin
Tryna find my way
Before the end of the day
Stuck in
This place
That's just how I'll stay
The man without a face
