Look At Me Now

Once upon a time, there was a boy who dreamed of being a musician

Timing a rhyme, it's like stopping the time
Leave you scratching your head tryna take it to bed
Making your way, it's a thing people say
I can't figure it out, baby, look at me now
Losing myself, put me back on the shelf
I'm not ready to sell, I'm still burning in hell
Take me home to my spirit, I don't wanna hear it
I'm tryna be near it but stuck in my shell
Yeah I know I'm a little bit crazy
I can see that much in myself lately
But you think that you know what you don't know
Telling me I'm not happy, it's getting old
I see worlds in my mind that you'll never see
I hear patterns in life that inspire me
I can live in a place that I make up
I can sing it alone when I wake up
In my head I got everything that I need
Wish I could share it with you but you don't see
My invisible in 'cause it start to bleed
Through the ground, the sound that I'm making
There's a line out the door but I'm taken
By myself 'cause I know I'm not faking
Think you want me but don't even know me
Tryna hunt me but chasing too slowly

Look at me now, look at me now
I'm all alone, finally grown
Look at me now, look at me now
I got the skills, hungry for kills
Look at me now, look at me now
I'm a fanatic, I'll never be static, nah
Look at me now, look at me now
I'm on a mission to live on a wish
It's a kind of amusement I get from abuse
I can see what you're thinking
The poison you're drinking
Don't give it to me, I don't want it, your fronting
I'm tryna get free of the system we bumping

Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now

I'm in a tunnel, my mind's in a funnel
I just can't escape it, the edges I'm scraping
Round and around I'm a penny, I'm rolling
I'm swirling, I'm twirling, the path is uncurling
Somebody moving my tongue
It's a feeling I've come to embrace from the edges of space
Line after line I'm a terminal
Giving commands to myself like a general
Put on the gloves and I punch it on three different clocks
But you only see me when we hang on the docks
People are more than what you can see
It's a fact I've been thinking 'bout lately
Skin is only as much as you pay me
Don't gotta talk 'cause I see what you're saying
Dollar sign on every conversation
I can see myself in your equation
What you think of me but I ain't playing
Level nine-thousand I'm a supersayin

Look at me now, look at me now
Used to be lost, now I've been found
Look at me now, look at me now
Used to be dumb, learned to be numb
Look at me now, look at me now
Used to be last, past is the past
I'm a creature of habit
I think I'm an addict, though
Follow me at your own risk
It's a rabbit hole
Shaking the can, it a sign of a man
I'm a dozen a dime
But at least I can rhyme it, though

Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now

I'm on a bridge, stuck in the middle
I'm in the fog, feeling so little
I'm on the edge, I'm looking over
Can't see the bottom, tryna get lower
I'm on a trip, I'm on a dip
Boiling over, gimme the drip
I'm on a roll, paying the toll
Day after day, looking the same
Face in the mirror, always be changing
I'm not the same, see what I'm saying?
I'm on a dive, staying alive
Little bit dry but I know I can thrive
I'm in the desert, looking for water
It's an oasis called my own name
It's a path I've been taking alone all the way
Gets a little bit hazy when you start to make it

Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
Look at me, look at me, look at me now
