Reflections
Yea, yea
Look
As the morning sunrises
I check my mobile devices
Thinking bout my piece of the pie
And getting slices
Eyes on what the prize is
So dumb to the fact
That I ain't even thank my creator
Once I opened my eyelids
Damn I'm really slipping
Damn what was I sipping
My momma probably look at me like
Damn nigga you tripping
Condemning me how I'm living
How niggas who ain't perfect
Get to look me in my eyes
And tell me bout how I'm sinning
Damn that shit is wack
What type of shit is that
How you expect me to grow
When you all over my back
But then I step back
To look around and reflect
The dots become clearer
As I begin to connect
So when I see somebody
That's giving me criticism
I never argue with them
I listen to all the wisdom
I'm knowing that they may just be
A momentary angel
To guide my footsteps
And for that, I say thank you
Yea
Look
As the morning sunrises
I check my mobile devices
Thinking bout my piece of the pie
And getting slices
Eyes on what the prize is
So dumb to the fact
That I ain't even thank my creator
Once I opened my eyelids
Damn I'm really slipping
Damn what was I sipping
My momma probably look at me like
Damn nigga you tripping
Condemning me how I'm living
How niggas who ain't perfect
Get to look me in my eyes
And tell me bout how I'm sinning
Damn that shit is wack
What type of shit is that
How you expect me to grow
When you all over my back
But then I step back
To look around and reflect
The dots become clearer
As I begin to connect
So when I see somebody
That's giving me criticism
I never argue with them
I listen to all the wisdom
I'm knowing that they may just be
A momentary angel
To guide my footsteps
And for that, I say thank you
Yea
