Marathons
All I see are lights
All I see is hype
All I sing is songs
In the key of life
All they see are timelines, they don't see the grind
They don't wanna see you speak your mind
They just wanna sing along
Spent 27 years tryna share my voice
Funny after 27 years I can't hear my voice
Got a lot of things I don't know
Like why should I be on the microphone
Why am I in a condo
My family in Haiti just lost their home
All my life I made art
All my life I sang songs
Twice I almost lost my mom
All my life she stayed strong
These days I don't call much
When I lose her, I'm gon' hate myself
Birth name, stage name, same thing
Either way I play myself
Get messages every day
Tellin' me my messages makin' change
Tellin' me to never quit, never break
Almost like you knew I was feelin' pain
And you feel the same
So when it's hard I just wanna say
It's not a race
Run your life like a marathon
Day by day
Runaway, aye
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm killin' every song
Now I'm killin' every song
Now I'm feelin' very on
Now I'm feelin' very on
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm killin' every song
Now I'm killin' every song
Now I'm feelin' very on
Now I'm feelin' very on
Been doin' it ever since 10, yeah
Almost 20 years in love with the pen, yeah
Never day dream 'bout anything
'Cause chasing dreams how I live, yeah
Smokin' weed how I live, yeah
You wanna live how I live, yeah
They don't wanna see you on the stage
In that married life with some kids (nah)
So I thought
So I stunt
So I stunted my growth
So I fuck with these hoes
So I might be alone
Alright, completely alone, yeah
Just me and the music ridin' away (way)
Ridin' away (way)
But what is to gain (gain)
Gotta get paid
Gotta get fame
Fuck that
Came in the game with a bus pass
I'ma be the same when they bump that
When you give me love I give you love back
When somebody change don't trust that
Watch for the snakes gotta cut grass
That's real life you can trust that
Running this race, got lost sometimes
But there's never been a day
I don't come back
Like marathons, yeah, yeah
Like marathons I'm going strong on everything, yeah, yeah
I go for broke and bet it all
But not for me and not for y'all
This rappin' shit ain't all I got
Gotta cop a crib for my momma once
And my godson need a college fund
That's marathons
Real life, that's marathons
One time, that's marathons
Life goals, that's marathons, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm thinking marathons
Now I'm killin' every song
