H O K O R I

What I can do and who I am is all that I believe
I don't need nobody, only thing that I control is me
Or am I compensating for all of my insecurities
Is it because of my past, or a lack maturity?
But if you read between the lines my time is full of issues
Don't need to talk to nobody, rather let it out on instrumentals
No patience for who I'm becoming got to keep it together
Never needed nobody, not now, or ever

Sometimes I can't trust myself, how can I trust someone else?
Got it all on my own, I don't need nobody's help
Fuck all the people doubted, I got the champion belt
Now I'm living life clouted, with the same pain felt
I always had my father but never a role model
All I ever had was trauma, that's a hard pill to swallow
Cause I been trying to heal myself, by making the fans holler
And when my pain follows
Maybe I do and the answer's my pride
It's what keeps my heart safe and my mind full of lies
The same reason people die or they're down to do time
Over chain, over a gang, or anything to be fye
Pride the same reason Cain had killed Able
Pride the same reason you keeping the dirt under tables
Pride the same reason I ain't want to face music
Pride the same reason I wondered if I would lose it

What I can do and who I am is all that I believe
I don't need nobody, only thing that I control is me
Or am I compensating for all of my insecurities
Is it because of my past, or a lack maturity?
But if you read between the lines my time is full of issues
Don't need to talk to nobody, rather let it out on instrumentals
No patience for who I'm becoming got to keep it together
Never needed nobody, not now, not ever

Think I'm starting to see that I'm already enough
My childhood taught me never show emotions, always be tough
Learning it's a lot better to just be open
Rather be underrated, then accepted for soft spoken
Lately it's a lot that's weighing heavy on the mental
Firstly, shout out to P-Tone, for making this instrumental
Jerry helped me trust myself when I was feeling lost
Brand X believed in me like the disciples did the cross
We ain't spoke in months but had to get this off my chest
My pride is what kept me from always doing my best
Pride and ego got in the way of the music and what could've been
Shedding tears thinking bout what should've been
Whether you forgive me or not, Prismatic gone be on top
Thank you for all the good times, know I ain't gone stop
Patience for who I'm becoming, ain't got to have it together
Everybody need somebody, not just now, forever
