Keep Me Steady
Let me take you back to a time (Way back)
Before I really even knew that I could bust a rhyme (Bust a rhyme man)
Back to when I was ten, back to when I was nine
Throw back when I was six, way back when I was five, damn (Jeez)
I met a friend, we would always play pretend
Making up games thinking that none of this would ever end
We were so close, so much to say that he was my kin (My brother)
But as time passed separation began
Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like banana
I remember playing league running out of all my mana
Skyping my cousin, that game was so bananas (So bananas)
But now we barely talk, I miss you man
Boy, what happened? Uh
Was always dropped off at the daycare
Mama would work out while I would sit and play there
When she would turn to leave I would fall to fear
I was always afraid of being left alone there (Whaa)
Back then that was my only worry (Worry)
Now I gotta pick up my act, find a college in a hurry (Run boy)
Just wanna stay young, just wanna stay cool
Just wanna do my music but I gotta go to school, uh (Man)
Man, growing up is so freaking depressing
I don't understand why this music got me stressing
Wanna do this for my life, wanna do this for myself
Take away anxiety, work on mental health, ay
I don't wanna grow up, grow up, grow up
Just waitin' on that come up, come up, blow up
I don't wanna grow up, grow up, grow up
Just take me to the top already, and keep me steady
Would you ever blink? Would you ever know?
Would you ever think? Would you ever go?
I don't really know (I don't know)
I ain't really focused on perception
Only on progression
On these chords and on my super flow (Flow)
But these views always got me second guessing
And while these SoundCloud rappers they be out here stupid flexin' (Why you flex boy?)
I just been jotting down my feelings homie I been venting
It ain't cause of weed, it's from super dope invention, yeah (Whoo)
I got no time to take a break between songs
Gotta be on my grind, doing music all night long
Baby girl I know we haven't even hung out in so long (I'm sorry)
But you gotta understand I'm treating this like it's my job, ay
Try my best to not be acting like a snob, ay
But cause' of music I know some nights being robbed, ay
Turn down the headlights, look this road is being fogged, ay
But persevere, though the traffics pretty clogged, woah (Oh no)
Gotta do what needs be done so I can live how Imma live
Got a bullet in a gun and life is shooting at this kid
Tryna' make myself a life, gotta give what I can give
Chest is bleeding with this knife, take this pain out of my ribs (Ahh)
I don't really understand why this come up coming slow
This the only thing I want, this the only thing I know
This the only thing I need, can't you hear me beg and plead?
Oh my God, won't you help and guide me? Ay
I don't wanna grow up, grow up, grow up
Just waitin' on that come up, come up, blow up
I don't wanna grow up, grow up, grow up
Just take me to the top already, and keep me steady
I don't wanna grow up, grow up, grow up
Just waitin' on that come up, come up, blow up
I don't wanna grow up, grow up, grow up
Just take me to the top already, and keep me steady
And keep me steady
And keep me steady
And keep me steady
And keep me steady
