Walking on the Grass
I'm walkin' on the grass
I don't use the sidewalk
I'm walkin' all alone
It's me against the world
I look around
And all I see is diamonds
I guess I don't belong
'Cause I'm just a pearl
Yeah it's just me
Nobody willin' to trust me
Startin' to feel like my family are the only people who love me
But I love peace and I get a lot
It's unceasing, it's lovely and I love bein' alone
God can judge me but
See nobody else can, even when they try to
They try to get me to play their wicked games to see if I'd lose
I'd like to, but I know that's not the right move
I gotta play my own cards, they're not even in the right suit
Nice to meet you I'm Z E.L.F.R. "ink," yeah
I didn't come to just say words I came to speak, yeah
Tell the current goat he's 'bout to get impeached, yeah
'Cause I deserve a spot, I came to claim my seat, yeah
But wait I just opened my wallet and there's a reality check
It's negative one-hundred million dollars and seventy cents
Financial services, I see an email they may have just sent
It's all about textbook rental and tuition expense. That's why
I'm walkin' on the grass
I don't use the sidewalk
I'm walkin' all alone
It's me against the world
I look around
And all I see is diamonds
I guess I don't belong
'Cause I'm just a pearl
Why do we humans make our lives so confusin'?
The things we're pursuin', they're truthfully useless
Personally, I see it with this thing that I'm doin'
I'm makin' the beats, but I don't even hear my own music
I guess it's just survival of the fittest, isn't it?
It's like we're runnin' away from death even though it's imminent
We work so hard to build our chair, but we don't sit in it
We don't enjoy the game; we're too focused on winnin' it
They say bein' an adult and bein' independent makes you feel free
Well, I tried to follow that beaten path but it's really not the real me
As a child, I was absent-minded. I think that still is true
I still chill by the window sill in the livin' room
But every mornin' at the crack of dawn, I grab a backpack and put a jacket on
Hop in my car and head out to class as I listen to rapper songs
I like the sound of the bass and the snare with the catchy melody
But I feel like the first rapper who hasn't committed a felony, so I guess
I'm walkin' on the grass
I don't use the sidewalk
I'm walkin' all alone
It's me against the world
I look around
And all I see is diamonds
I guess I don't belong
'Cause I'm just a pearl
When I get knocked down, Imma fight back
I just gotta get my life on the right track
I don't really care what they say about me
I'll still make it from point A to point B
When I get knocked down, Imma fight back
I just gotta get my life on the right track
I don't really care what they say about me
I'll still make it from point A to point B
I'm walkin' on the grass
I don't use the sidewalk
I'm walkin' all alone
It's me against the world
I look around
And all I see is diamonds
I guess I don't belong
'Cause I'm just a pearl
I don't use the sidewalk
I'm walkin' all alone
It's me against the world
I look around
And all I see is diamonds
I guess I don't belong
'Cause I'm just a pearl
Yeah it's just me
