Same Old Story

I need some' to bring my psyche up
Something I can feel I'm tired of dealing with this light stuff
Feel I'm wasting energy on people I don't like much
But that's the good heart in me, shit I can't help but hype up
I ain't feel the love, so I left town for a write up
Dropped a 16 that I sketched down was a light one
Just a little taste so they check now when I spice up
That's why nowadays I strut with my chest out and my sights up
Moves calculated it's chess now as I hike up
And they think I got the cheats you know, left down, right up
The drive brought me far, can't rest now it's tight one
Throw me in a cage with lions, go ten rounds if I fight one
But it's the-

For real
It's like the same old story but
Just reading it a different way
Let me talk
Yeah
Look

Ain't no adversity gone get rid of me
I take what this life gives to me
I just keep it quiet plead the fifth believe
That I've been going thru a lot but differently
Barely getting five hours a night might as well skip the sleep
Taking on so much at once but really it's a fix for me
Probably unhealthy but I ain't cool with little league I'm tryna' hit my dreams
I got too much pride to tell myself to chill, just know I see a bigger me
And even Mortal Kombat couldn't finish me,
I been off the head with it lately, but when I write this shit's calligraphy
Came a long way from the cyphers sipping a Twisted Tea
Now I'm in position to make this fit what my vision sees
If I win, you win, it's symmetry, you can live through me
So it's the-

It's facts
Just give it time
On everything, it's right there
Yeah
