Written in Stone

Some of y'all never took a risk and it shows
Comfortable but how y'all still living at home
Gave up too early, didn't stick to your goals
You gotta risk it all to get it written in stone

I hit the open road, everything I own in the back seat
Tears down my momma's face, pops tryna combat me
The black sheep, whiting out the script that dad written for me
Hoping in the end that I'll come and show my wits importance
Blisters hard to reach, the biggest misconception
Investing time in me and in return I'll skip depression
All that work for someone else to build your dream propaganda
That they teach while we young and weed doesn't breed a commander

He's sad I haven't talked to my dad in three months now
Nurtured a pen and the paper ain't futhered my education, shunned out
His generation rolls like secret sevice I don't copy docs
Fuck security I'm in this bitch without a body guard
I know what's to come for me
Took a couple 'L's but my bounce back game rooted deep like a rubber tree
I cut the seams, don't fit into the pack because I become the lead
I'm seeing there's a whole lotta yous but only one of me

Some of y'all never took a risk and it shows
Comfortable but how y'all still living at home
Gave up too early, didn't stick to your goals
You gotta risk it all to get it written in stone
I'm saying some of y'all never took a risk and it shows
You look comfortable, how's living at home
Crazy what'll happen when you stick to your goals
You gotta risk it all to get it written in stone

I'm finally understanding everything, designing my path
Realized the only thing I never got was time to relax
That 60 hours plus a week, that job got me drained
But I can't stand the thought of someone else deciding my pay
While most decided to wait, that shit aligned with your fate
You got content and you relied on those provided escapes
Too many excuses, you gon wait until the timing is great
That set of mind states fucked, cause you can die any day

Look at my leg work
To make some movement, gotta take the baby steps first
But I made it mine, I need it now like J G Wentworth
I'm passing up on pussy, ooh curving tens hurts
But lessons learned I won't regret her
Married with kids, it's fine y'all don't understand it
But I interpret all the truth from what y'all say underhanded
Yeah I thought it, I felt that I went and acted upon it
Chasing the sun, my future bright
Ain't looking back on the dumb, no

Some of y'all never took a risk and it shows
Comfortable but how y'all still living at home
Gave up too early, didn't stick to your goals
You gotta risk it all to get it written in stone
I'm saying some of y'all never took a risk and it shows
You look comfortable, how's living at home
Crazy what'll happen when you stick to your goals
You gotta risk it all to get it written in stone
