LA POESIA FINALE

Pay attention, losing everything can make you gain perspective
Make you change your whole perception like you changed your lenses
Focus on the negative, then that's gonna be the place you're destined
There is blocks to the top of shit like a game of Tetris
Stay the course and the same direction, each day's a blessing
Relationships are like phones, it's best we stay connected
Just don't erase the message, man, I hate the ending
Trying to protect you is the reason I became protective

A machine that's been feeling like he became defective
I wanna live a life where I don't have to hate my exes
I wanna live a life where I don't have to face depression
But that'll only be on the day that I face the gates of heaven
Life's a trip, lot of late nights with illicit drugs
I no longer will partake in this, I'll give it up
Studio sessions 'til seven, the sun ain't dimming up
People trying to live it up, but I done lived enough

Huh, shit, sick of all the shit I've done
Got no friends, I just talk on Twitter like give me love
Shit is sad, like my Instagram
No more clips of us
I guess our shit is done, I guess we finished, huh?
No more memories, everything's been deleted from folders
Guess that's the new age way of us needing some closure
I ain't trying to let people ever see my emotions
You can close the door on me, my baby, but I'm keeping it open

And you can throw away the keys, but we keeping the moments
Keys to success, they be rusty, can you see the corrosion?

I'm trying to be at peace with the pieces I'm holding
No Jesus piece on me, but me, I'ma bleed for the holy
Do this for my young fam Lina, Nico, and Toni
Won't stop grinding until they each fall asleep with a Rollie
No Adobe Photoshop, no this is real life
And I'ma put your ass through school 'cause it feels right
Been ignoring your messages, yet you still write
I know you thought I did you wrong, but I was still right

Nice, now look at the way you kill life
Through legal issues, the team is with you, we be official
See clear as crystal, the people with you don't need a pistol
We Michael Vick in this bitch, and we will unleash the pit bulls
But for now, I'll stay steady working, releasing singles
Life is complicated, cannot keep it simple
It can even sting you, yeah, you're gonna need a thimble

Losing a lot of friends when they see you winning
What's next, stories coming out on how I'm treating women?
Truth is, all they wanna do is sleep with villains
And that description, I'm fitting perfect to be specific
Had abandonment issues, I wasn't speaking English
Plus my dad, he had issues, cost him his seed to miss him
But that can't be sufficient 'cause that would be suspicious
Been projecting shit on anyone who'd even listen

Need to be committed, want to be everything that my ego isn't
Guess everything is my fault
Blowing up in my face now like I was staring at the last left second on a fuckin' time bomb, pff!
Yeah, ain't that a bitch, always been on my fam shit
I was there when my mom was having her back inked
Real talk, this ain't funny, this ain't a slapstick

Pill popping to feel awesome, a classic
Real problems, I ain't building off theatrics
And this is not a drill, this is really laws of attraction
City left me to drown, I've been sinking, I'm lost in Atlantis
If you feel the same, then you're really talking my language
Following your father's footsteps, but you're not as established
Accolades got 'em, hey, don't compare to pops and his platinums
Can't compare to pops and his platinums

Guess I'm changing my mantra, no more handouts, it's time to be frank like Sinatra
Table conversations over plates of the pasta
Peeps get fishy over beef, that's the steak with the lobster
If we ain't working, still I'm grateful for offers
Turned you down once, and now you full of hate and you watch us
Ass backwards, like Mercedes to Mazda
Be patient, correct yourself like you was changing your posture

Salute to my day ones that ain't feeling entitled
Shit got me preaching more than a priest with a Bible
This that being let down when you're meeting your idols
Over some BS like the number 23 on the Michael, huh
We all wanna be kings on the path of a pharaoh
All we do is bring each other down, though we crabs in a barrel
Rappers getting shot, RIP, pretty soon you will only see them
On a shirt like its Champion apparel
Can't I put my feet up when I like?

Can I be iconic like Adidas with the stripes?
Is what I ask myself, but these days everybody switching
Even Yeezus and his wife, yeah, he gone need Jesus right?
When shit gets hard, ain't nobody sticking through it
Even me, I made a promise, wasn't sticking to it
Pill-popping in the washroom, watched Whitney do it
Washed it down with liquor bottles as a drinking fluid

Balancing your home life with the rap game
Can fast-forward your whole life to the fast lane
With a dash of childhood trauma, I call it back pain
Seems like every problem man-made
My dreams will probably need a blank slate
But now I feel like there ain't a problem that I can't face (can't face)

Ain't a problem that I can't face
La poesia finale
