Let Me Be

Yeah
Yeah yeah
Look, fell from the heavens in 97
Ain't seen no sheep, what is sleep? I'm restless when counting blessings
Can't see too many when living in sin while they contesting
If he were to die today would he see the gates of heaven
That's the question, what's my purpose? Am I worth it
Far from perfect, reason being straying far from all them churches
Feeling like I shouldn't have to learn them verses from the scriptures
All this praying isn't working, death reserved you can't reverse it
Seeking vengeance, this verse could serve as the premise
A haven to keep from feeling complacence inside these trenches
You know the feeling of drowning inside what they call pretentious
Off precision kept me out of the money I wanna swim in
It goes against my morals and traditions to think of quitting
These struggles causing all my inquisitions
Which seems to put in the position of saying fuck em
Like I ain't value y'all niggas opinions
I dropped the tape, know it was further than late
Gave y'all a couple demos now y'all ain't got nothing to say
I got a lot of shit they served with my plate, all's at stake
Doing it all just to ensure that we ate, I need a way to escape
I shut my eyes, dim the lights, close the drapes
And think about my future, failure's not apart of my fate
I know these kids can't relate, cause everything was given to them
I would scrap for the bait, never the need to debate

I don't have a dream, those require sleep
Infatuated with the riches those inspire me
With similar desires, you get my inquiry
I been stressing tryna get it, tell them niggas (Let me be)
Tell them niggas let me be
I been stressing tryna get it tell them niggas let me be (Let me be)
Don't worry bout me, get the fuck out my face nigga I can't breathe
I don't have a dream, those require sleep
Infatuated with the riches those inspire me
With similar desires, you get my inquiry
I been stressing tryna get it, tell them niggas (Let me be)

Time elapsed, leading me to relapse
Through years of hell to get to Nazareth and Lazarus back
A weaker will revealed the happiness that's fading to black
And got me asking where the fuck is it at
They say you need to relax but shit the devil hanging over my back
How should I cope with this, I need to find a way to react
Load the clip inside the 9, proceed to cocking it back
Squeeze the trigger, splat
My mama cleaning blood of the mat
Desperation in turn of physical degradation
I walk alone on this road in search of a destination
Mental break downs, break down, split the middle
Get it lit, pass around my medication
Yeah, mama never loved it, I know it hurts her heart that her only son does it
You ain't first without a good impression so it's fuck it.
I'ma keep a blunt inside my mouth these bitches love it

I don't have a dream, those require sleep
Infatuated with the riches those inspire me
With similar desires, you get my inquiry
I been stressing tryna get it, tell them niggas (Let me be)
Tell them niggas let me be
I been stressing tryna get it tell them niggas let me be (Let me be)
Don't worry bout me, get the fuck out my face nigga I can't breathe
I don't have a dream, those require sleep
Infatuated with the riches those inspire me
With similar desires, you get my inquiry
I been stressing tryna get it, tell them niggas (Let me be)

Dug myself up out this pit, don't need your pity
Should've figured that you fucking niggas wouldn't get me
Let alone think you'd understand me, it's been different since I lost my granny
Distance grew between my family
It may be my defiance. Fuck these rules we living by, I'm not abiding
Wish I could be compliant but how I'm living, you'd spend all night crying
And if they would tell you it would be alright then they'd be lying
I'm tryna learn the science of myself which led to silence
Now nobody's up to listen to my findings
And I find it difficult remaining tranquil, keeping kindness
When these niggas actions at me have me happy for some violence
I say happy, emotion, I never knew it
Until I became amused with this movement I call the music
It's the only thing I have in this life and can't lose it
Whenever I'm down bad it's been proven as therapeutic
Not one of these bitches I thought would be down for me and kick it
Holding out on 7 digits but let me not be specific
Just get into these logistics on how these hoes be persistent
When they see that I'm prolific, bank account with 7 digits
Let me be
