The Shepherd

Spent so much time tryna fit in, can't be different
Smoking sipping daily hate myself because I did this
Why I do this again? Always thinking about the end
I wish I didn't try pretend of finding comfort in my skin
Like I need a break, leave the world a couple days
Smile is on my face, whole time its a masquerade
Like I need a place where space and time just don't exist
Pen my truest thoughts hoping that you notice them
It's like I'm throwing punches but them fuckers don't connect
Like they scrap your jaw and you just feel a little bit
Missing chances cause I can't get out my own way
Like I had a interview and I overslept
Feeling uninspired so I'm playing 2k
Trapped thinking that tomorrow is a new day
Tomorrow never comes so I'm in a rat race
Tryna get my funds and I finish last place

Spent so much time high it's like I became sober
Then I was sober it was like a new high
Then I was sober I was like a new guy
Then I was sober anxiety was sky high

Had to teach myself how to fucking be myself
Had to teach myself I don't need nobody help

I don't wanna be like you, I don't wanna rap like you
I don't wanna sing like you, I'm a do what STEEZ would do

Yeah I'm not a gangster, yeah I'm not a thug
Yeah I'm not a poet, don't got a lotta love
I'm a bit of everything knock them out in any ring
They ain't wanna be like me, now I see them worshipping

Up a couple buckets now im fucking leading you
I ain't no sheep I'm the shepherd leading you
Used to be a sheep now I fucking seen the truth
I'm the prophet how the fuck could I ever beef with you?

Shouts to 2 door cause I need a 2 door
Fake friends got no room for, cut them off need two swords
Me and ma we was so poor, couldn't find us wit sonar
Always knew I was so raw, style gross like coleslaw

And it's fuck the system fuck it if I sound corny
I can't think of shit that they ever did for me
Congress making laws about some shit they never witnessed
You can't have no say if you ain't ever fucking did it
Tryna fix the poverty they grew up in the Hamptons
So they view is skewed and all they research has been dampened

Cycle repeats and these jobs don't wanna get em
Fuck America cause everything is just a business
Fuck America cause everything ain't just a business
