Vices

I don't stress much when I've got a blunt and a pen
Young and wild tryna have fun with my friends
We got lungs full of sin
But we don't give a fuck cuz a couple hits in depressions gone with the wind
And the smoke and the vapor
Write a couple song's while we're rolling the papers and loading the chamber
We know of the danger's but potions our savior
We're all just emotional Vaders
That's dark nigga
Battling these demons every time a nigga sparks swishers
Never hit them bars with the kids who went too hard shit I'm
Just a kid at heart whose depression sparked him to be a bar spitter
And now this shit's getting much bigger than me
I'm spreading my vision through lyrics I've written
And don't need assistance from hits of the tree

I realized that there's more to living life
Than whores and getting high
I'm tired of pretending we're alright
Don't wanna live a lie
I'm done
It's more than just the green that's getting lit up in these blunts
We've been getting lit until we're numb
And we write it off as us just being kids and having fun

I'm just a young bastard kid
Whose been living in a world full of savages
So I passed the spliff to get past the shit
Till I realized I should focus on my raps and shit
And stay passionate
Tryna make a change in this world before having kids
Hell no I'm not an advocate
Of the bullshit that's promoted by like half the kids
In this rap game, damn raps changed
All the whackest niggas out grasp fame
Just talking shit while they flash chains
And these zombies get on their campaign
What a damn shame
What happened to lyrical food for your thought
Way before trappin
Sold way more than passion
What happened to viewing the music as art

I realized that there's more to living life
Than whores and getting high
I'm tired of pretending we're alright
Don't wanna live a lie
I'm done
It's more than just the green that gets lit up in these blunts
We've been getting lit until we're numb
And we write it off as us just being kids and having fun

I'd been lost in the world
And I remember days when I was awkward with girls, when I talked almost hurled
Now I know a couple of them with the thoughts of a squirrel
Tryna get a nut so I can get them lockets and pearls
When I blow up, I often hear them talk of the glow up
Like who would've ever thought I would grow up
Into someone who was hot and dropped bars that'd blow up
Like Semtex, bitch ain't nothing change, hoe I've been fresh
And been stressed as a bitch
And I remember being young and saying how I'd flex when I'm rich
Tried impressing some chicks, then I learned a lesson real quick
And ended up depressed by the shit
Now I'm just anti-imperialistic
Instead of materialistic
Cuz there are more serious things to address
Than drugs, money, and bitches

I realized that there's more to living life
Than whores and getting high
I'm tired of pretending we're alright
Don't wanna live a lie
I'm done
It's more than just the green that gets lit up in these blunts
We've been getting lit until we're numb
And we write it off as us just being kids and having fun
