Greatest Curse

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
One time for the city
One time for the city, yeah

If I'm being honest I been slacking off
Pressure, I been backing off
Put most of my energy in people
If I cap it off
Maybe then I'd be more confident
Maybe then I'd just say thank you for the compliment
It's too exhausting
Explaining what it's costing
To have my music heard across every single continent
Even Konami couldn't cheat the situation I'm in
Pen to the pad, already know how it ends
What I wanna be is equal to 23
With my jersey in the rafters for everybody to see
I'm trynna do better, I'm prioritizing me
That's the last thing my manipulators wanna see
But it's difficult staying humble at all times
Overwhelmed every season so I call TIMES
But I'm cursed
With coaching everybody else
I just want a little something all mine

If I knew back then
What I know right now
It would've never went down
If I knew back then
What I know right now
It would've never went down
Because it is the greatest curse
The pain couldn't make this worse
God spoke said that it wouldn't always hurt
It's gonna turn out fine
But it's gonna take time

I speak my mind
Cause it hurts to bite my tongue
So I rhyme just to cope with all the ways I'm stung
I'm bout peace so I'm trynna wife a Kazama, Jun
Lungs running outta breath cause when I'm hung
Up on all the details of trynna to get my music into retail
Where people cherish art and aren't in it for the resale
I can tell this is not the pinnacle of artistry
Social media fraudulent just so people will follow me
Pass
I'm traditional to a fault
I studied the game I'm well aware of the cost
Of fame
I'm still ashamed I ever tried
If I lied
Then I know I woulda died
But I'm back and I'm better
Prepped for the weather
Cold world, catch me in a hoodie not a sweater
Money make the world go round you buying hours
The greatest curse is knowing that knowledge is power

If I knew back then
What I know right now
It would've never went down
If I knew back then
What I know right now
It would've never went down
Because it is the greatest curse
The pain couldn't make this worse
God spoke said that it wouldn't always hurt
It's gonna turn out fine
But it's gonna take time
