Latency

Used to think I'd run out of words
If I wrote my songs and posted afterwards
For my friends I still bend backwards
It's not their fault I'm that type of person

Back in high school I would like to flirt
And the girls would flirt back attraction hurts
I was half jock but still half nerd
Never knew myself but that's a lesson learned

Now I'm stretchin out in my sketchers
They call me the trend setter
Yeah they call me when I'm in the lead
But when I fall back they ignore me

I was so fly, still soaring
I been up til 6 in the morning
Now the bartender keeps pouring
I said one more but that was four drinks ago

That was 4 weeks ago
And that was for me to know
And for you to find out down the road
It'd be so meaningful, ugh

That was 4 weeks ago
We weren't even sure if we could go
Back to the shore 'cuz it's pouring
Real talk, it's not feasible - Ow

Got my sights on the prize, it's a celebration
You could say I was getting high on my expectations
Apart from the loneliness, I feel real amazing
You could say that I'm blessed but that's an understatement

Sketched out I been drawing
Hold tight to your Spaldings
Stand back while I relax
There's a price that comes with free falling

Flow so hot I mean scalding
That burn notice that warning
I'm a have to take that with no warrant
Warren Sapp I'm sackin' the quarter-

Back to back, Kobe and Jordan
Brush that, dirt off my shoulder
Watch the clock, you couldn't be slower
I'm the rock, never been bolder

Yeah, just a little bit of acting
Yeah, I get a little bit of action
Yeah, with the lights and the camera
It's like giving up isn't an option

Give it up quick that's a better pass
Get it don't quit like a game of tag
Now you spittin that sufferin succotash
While I pepe le pew with my better half

Never been under the bleachers
I been the teacher
I gotta stay above it when I lead her
So I can always tell her that
I will treat her better than he did

Never been one to get heated
Stay awake longer than sleepy
I could be seated, next to the president I'll be the speaker
Bumping the speakers like

Yeah, I'm a believe it's right
Yeah, I live a secret life
Only the friends of the fam and the fam
Really do know what it's like

Really do know what it's like, hey
Really do know what it's like, look
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Goin back in gotta go ahead
Everyone alone when it's all said and done
Gotta great run but it's no fun
When it's all love that you want

GoFundme when I'm bout to crash
In a packed house left out to drag
Finna gonna pass out you announce the cash
Now I'm gonna lash out now I'm out of gas

No reruns, feelin' like Obi Wan
Yeah, the old me's done
I bring the hammer you Banner I'm Thor's bro
Gonna have Loki fun

Low-key pun
That is final one 2010 Finals when Kobe won
Buzzer I beat it I flow when I'm heating up
Call me a heater it's clear when I rap I don't speak enough

Yeah
Bitterness comes when you seen enough, yeah
Figure you fit in the scene enough
I gotta sit when I'm feelin it
Lemony Snicket you know it's unfortunate

Fortune I torch it til all of it scorches
I force a good morning I call on the Lordy
Of course I know God has a plan it's enormous
But sure it gets heavy when I get the portrait

I get the picture I copied it
Sent it to all of my followers
Don't let it become what you thought it was
Why bring em down if you know what's up

Why you resist what is good for you
Why do we lie if we know what's true
Why do we ask all the questions but never mention
What somebody has done for you

Reflection is a hard thing
Resentment is lurking
Redemption is coming so we won't have to keep
Protecting our self-esteem

Give someone hug
Flip the script never pull out the rug
Run to it so don't gotta run from it
You are not alone in the strug, yeah

Shrug it off, yeah
Taking a beating you strong enough
You get the picture like cameras
Reach to the ceiling you know what's up

I wanna reach out to all of ya
You can call me if wanted to
Whatever you need I'm available
Or hit the repeat if you jamming still
