PSA: Lights Out
Why the ones that talk the most be doing the least
And the ones that's to themselves be the ones that we need
No cosign this sound like nothing when it's coming from me
Only valid for the niggas they want us to be
Watching friends losing mentally, get to fucking with me
Minds full of everything but what they should see
Just know it's all love even when you're coming for me
Cause if it wasn't when I did it, I wouldn't have done it for free
I'd have just done it for me
On my David Ruffin show up casually, fuck up the scene
Like this is the team and I'm the one that you coming to see
I get it now, this is what niggas wanted to see
Cause when you lack vision, you can't hear it, you need something to see
You can run from the truth, you can run from your life
Nigga no running from me, you pray you don't run into me
Had to carry the weight, don't know all the weight that I carry
And it was nothing but me
I don't even understand it
I don't understand how you ain't in the right now
Stack that chicken up and you can get it right now
Hopefully you don't understand when its lights out
Lights out, lights out
Lights out, lights out
Hopefully you understand when it's out my mouth
Out my mouth
Before I'm out
My biggest accomplishment is being willing to give myself a thousand second chances
And every time I got to 999, I pressed reset
I didn't ask permission, I gave notice
At some point I have to stop asking can I be great, can I be brilliant
Can I be okay and still be accepted
I just stopped asking permission and just gave notice unapologetically
And not in a braggadocious way
Not in a way that shrunk anyone else
In a way that said I only got one life
And I'm gonna ride this one till the wheels fall off
And the ones that's to themselves be the ones that we need
No cosign this sound like nothing when it's coming from me
Only valid for the niggas they want us to be
Watching friends losing mentally, get to fucking with me
Minds full of everything but what they should see
Just know it's all love even when you're coming for me
Cause if it wasn't when I did it, I wouldn't have done it for free
I'd have just done it for me
On my David Ruffin show up casually, fuck up the scene
Like this is the team and I'm the one that you coming to see
I get it now, this is what niggas wanted to see
Cause when you lack vision, you can't hear it, you need something to see
You can run from the truth, you can run from your life
Nigga no running from me, you pray you don't run into me
Had to carry the weight, don't know all the weight that I carry
And it was nothing but me
I don't even understand it
I don't understand how you ain't in the right now
Stack that chicken up and you can get it right now
Hopefully you don't understand when its lights out
Lights out, lights out
Lights out, lights out
Hopefully you understand when it's out my mouth
Out my mouth
Before I'm out
My biggest accomplishment is being willing to give myself a thousand second chances
And every time I got to 999, I pressed reset
I didn't ask permission, I gave notice
At some point I have to stop asking can I be great, can I be brilliant
Can I be okay and still be accepted
I just stopped asking permission and just gave notice unapologetically
And not in a braggadocious way
Not in a way that shrunk anyone else
In a way that said I only got one life
And I'm gonna ride this one till the wheels fall off
