SELF HELP (feat. Anfernee Myers)

I spent a long time running from problems why I was seeking love
Imposter syndrome keeping me down, keep me from speaking up
My homies told me rap, they told me I should do a feature run
Competition ain't to beat the people it's to beat the run
You racing time, I marathon the life
It's just the race we run
You gotta go the distance, pace yourself you gotta finish
That's the only way to lose, if you're trying then you're winning
If you lying then you crying, if you truthing then you living
If somebody fall down in the moshpit, then you pick them up
Lifting as you crying that's how everyone get lifted up
Keep on dropping knowledge places everyone can pick it up
Karma will reward you back in space so what you gifting us?
Look at what you giving back for all the good you've given up
Sorry to be preachy, I don't mean to be so listen love
This really is a message from me to me to be lifted up
Reminder from my mind that I keep the peace and I prosper just being myself properly
That's what the only option be
I was holding up inside and made me sick awfully
But when I let it out I let my chaos live lawfully
No ADHD, anxiety or depression stoppin' me
Didn't need a key just had to shake the shackles off of me

The way you talkin' makes it sound so easy
I'm just scraping by and reading all these books I should be in my prime
I need to go the distance?
I don't even know what race I'm running
What kinda face you looking at me?
I'm overwhelmed now I'm lost
Videos on videos all the life hacks, and yoga pose don't fix post trauma
I need to post more drama
No, I don't need more water, what's a little run gonna do?
When I'm feuding with the family, live on channel six news
When I'm deep in my bag do I keep doing all these tricks?
I'll probably get tired of this shit
I'll probably get bored outta my mind, I need a little chaos in my life, I need to be late all The time
Change in my life so
I'll get started at nine
