Things Change

Changing, Ain't the same as what I used to be
Looking in the mirror, Facing fears, And what I fear is I'm losing me
Look, This isn't new to me, Painstaking, I knew it'd be
The moral of the story, I'm mortal, And only growing, But
I can't take it, Feelings of being naked
Thinking that I could make it, When really was never slated
Let me demonstrate- There's a reason why my channel's dead
I was always in my way and in my own head
Look around, Like is this really enough
Thought I was bein loyal, But I was just fuckin up
Temper was off the hinges when opportunity comes
All these verses I'm writing, No credit and little funds
It was straining y'all, All the burden on my spirit, It was draining Rawb
I paid dues that was crude and outweighed the cost
Now I'm thinking I ain't worth the hype
I burned bridges over trails that ain't worth the sights

You know that things change
From a child, Up till now, Don't view it the same
If I defile my tomorrow, There's nothing to gain
Nothin else'll remain, I can't do this again

Stop that, Reminiscing like the pistol when it cock, Back
Tippin like a top hat
If y'all ain't checkin, Scene changes in seconds
Hate explaining the message, Refute it or intercept it
Ion give a fuck, Too many gems that I'm giving up
You can't hack it, Ain't no badges in this gym to touch
Explain what is, Keeping me from the cusp- Is
Lucci the one to blame, For people I'm out of touch with
Huh, I played the role, Made a star or dos
Mortifying- I'm the one boxed out the most
The plain's stained with the King that you wanted slain
Tuxedo Flask, With the raps, I've arose again
Integrated with the real, If it fit the bill
If this is just a game, Then I play the field
Know this nigga's ill and he do appeal
When you hear me on the mic, This is what you feel

You know that things change
From a child, Up till now, Don't view it the same
If I defile my tomorrow, There's nothing to gain
Nothin else'll remain, I'll just lose it again
