Sidetracked

What was I missing?
I decide the tides, tell me, what was I fishing
These reasons bringing me down, fuck a live, listen
Used to seeing me around, that's a odd vision
That's a odd vision
What was I missing?
I decide the tides, tell me, what was I fishing
These reasons bringing me down, fuck a live, listen
You used to seeing me around, that's a odd vision
Now that's a odd vision, yeah

I did a lot of people wrong, I hope they forgiving
More importantly, I fucked up on my poor decisions
Gold is glistened though I ain't going for it
I'm aiming for the top, dropped down, now I'm going forward
Back pedaling, I leveled it out
The rap settled in like melanin, I figured it out
They back snoozing, now I'm waiting for the wake up, wake up
Didn't think of the payout, I'm thinking that they way out
Way out, homie, stay out, stay out
This ain't no place for no sucka MC's
Thought I must see, how y'all musty, smoking crushed leaves, obscene on the scenery
They seen it, me?
I've just spent a couple months tryna handle all the stress
Tryna put it to the test, messed up on a whole different space
Different takes, distant tapes, dishing plates, now I'm on a wishing date
I wish the dates of these times didn't really go by how they do
Pops told me keep it to myself so you ain't gotta prove
All these people scheming daily, now I'm on the move
Back in the day seeing Aily, really put me in a groove
What to do, what to do, wasting times on the moments that I couldn't really lose
Shoes looking beat up, clothes is looking ragged
Tried to bag it as soon as I'd see it, three weekends, contemplating on who I was being
Faking my personality, stopping them, being mad at me
Hoping my central salary, didn't depend on gallery
How can he act like, a bunch of people who ain't themselves trying to act white
So they don't get in my shoes, and scratch up my back, right?
Now how I'm thinking that's right? Living in the fast life
My life was fast, but I slowed it right
Down to a point where I can act right
Yeah
Now I'm thinking

What was I missing?
I decide the tides, tell me, what was I fishing
These reasons bringing me down, fuck a live, listen
Used to seeing me around, that's a odd vision
That's a odd vision
What was I missing?
I decide the tides, tell me, what was I fishing
These reasons bringing me down, fuck a live, listen
You used to seeing me around, that's a odd vision
Now that's a odd vision, yeah
