Rearview

Damn I miss all that mischief, it was bliss in that spliff mist
All that innocence slipped quick even as a kid was a misfit
Shit that's probably why I spit so sadistic
To all my friends, my obsession's a sickness
They say I'm gifted, but I just feel addicted
Living at the mercy of ambition, my missions
Nobody can hurt me I'm my own worst critic
Every verse unfinished, every word I spit is too rehearsed
So rigid ice cold that's frigid I
I need a new lease on living
I Let the blue dream visions be my new religion
Vision skewed, bad image, uh
How I do I get in view of the riches
I'm a student this shit I'm used to eclipsing
The most ruthless in the room with my script it's
Too elusive, you must've missed it
Goddamn what I wouldn't do for a witness
I'd crucify Lucifer all for a hit song
Then cut him loose let him limp off

Story goes by fast, grab hold of the past don't let go, yeah
Might need it in a pinch, good memories keep me out my bag when I get low
Low tide, slow rider, don't blink too much
Go find, where home lies, just don't think 'bout us
Talk bout the late nights, it's all up in smoke by now
Lost all the gold I found, just getting older now
Walk out the cage fights, couldn't control myself
Lost all the hope I held, we all had to go through hell

I'm just, starving and asking
How to be a baller like a Lamarvelous Jackson never drawn to the fashion (Fuck it)
My mama told me shine son shoutout Mr. Ayton
Bump that social media and all the picture taking
I gotta make it back to home because the kids are aching
All the ones that wanna run away and turn those pigs to bacon
I gotta get to grinding, it's on my mind just to be strictly shining
You get some money and some diamonds just from simply rhyming
Some pre Madonnas be dishonest just to get some commas
But I don't really do material things, nah
They say good things come to those who wait
Well I don't know about that, I don't see what they mean
I'm floating gently down the river trying to be with the stream
I got some obese dreams, call me Ceelo Green but I
I need a new lease on living, travel in the whip I'm just Nissan living
All the peace I'm giving is a lure take me back to the sewer
Dirty racks and manure take her back just to screw her
But nah it ain't like that no more
I'm trynna go recite raps that might crack the core, uh

Rearview mirrors fog up fast I'm blind, this time
Woah we've been waiting for this light to shine, in due time

Story goes by fast, grab hold of the past don't let go, yeah
Might need it in a pinch, good memories keep me out my bag when I get low
Low tide, slow rider, don't blink too much
Go find, where home lies, just don't think 'bout us
Talk bout the late nights, it's all up in smoke by now
Lost all the gold I found, just getting older now
Walk out the cage fights, couldn't control myself
Lost all the hope I held, we all had to go through hell
