But That I Do

Today
I missed an opportunity
Today
I messed up brutally
Today
I spoke at my funeral wrote my own eulogy
So Rest In Peace
To me
The Wannabe
The one without a grip on reality
The one who's going down without a legacy
Flip the script tryna change my history
It's not a fact that I will be forgotten (No)
On the playground back in kindergarten
I was the one you could count on
Need a friend man you found one
He knows he's the last of the real ones
Say my name again when I'm gone
Say my name again baby life goes on

Everybody talk like they ain't got shame
But that I do
Everybody wanna switch it up back in my lane
To tell the truth
I'm crippled in the middle of a one way crossing
Can't see the street
Traffic backing up from the jam that I'm causing
Can I get a minute to get back up on my feet

Everybody wanna tip the scales but
Nobody wanna try to fail
Nobody wanna pay my bail
They would rather take my talent throw it up for sale
Looking through me like Casper
I know what I say it don't matter
Imma get paid either way I don't shatter
You should be flattered I only hang out with the maddest of hatters
Depp comma Johnny the fliest of actors
Fear I am loathing, toasting to my final chapter
You want it so bad, promise I want it badder
Better get at her like yo pitter patter

Everybody leaves
No one stays
They make it look easy to fly away

Everybody spit like they ain't got game
But that I do
Everyone a clone know we all sound the same
To tell the truth
I'm tired of chasin down phantoms
Voices in my head throwing tantrums
I move my feet to the rhythm
Another cog in the machine of the system
