Through

Walking my own way on my own timing
Stop in an oasis if I find it
Watch it dissipate on the horizon
Through and through

Walking my own way on my own timing
Stop and take a break if I'm reminded
Caught up in the chase until I'm guided
To what's true

All I ever wanted isn't truly what I need
And I'm trying to believe that realization
I would be dishonest If I didn't say a boost in my esteem
Puts a strain on all my family relations
I can feel 'em fading while I spend another day inside a daydream
Leaving people hanging while we playing for the same team
They seem to take it well, I can tell they're waiting
For me to snap out of it, it must be aggravating

Stuck in between be safe and be selfish, I chose
To prioritize the forces in the depths of my soul
Put my best foot forward and I stepped on their toes
Walking in the middle ground between the yes and the nos
If I fail to find a balance for ones I love most
I'm afraid I'm not the one in control
To my mother, and my uncle, and their mother on that comforting road
Hope I'm coming home with something to show, I'll let you know
Yeah

Walking my own way on my own timing
Stop in an oasis if I find it
Watch it dissipate on the horizon
Through and through

Walking my own way on my own timing
Stop and take a break if I'm reminded
Caught up in the chase until I'm guided
To what's true

Bare my soul or beat my chest
Either gonna lead to stress
Sleeping less
Four hours a night but I don't even rest
Odd enough, I wake up and still feel refreshed
I've been drawing energy from my desire to be the best
I know that my nana and my auntie loving me to death
But I hear them worry when they calling asking me what's next
Bet they would prefer me in an office reading emails at a desk
I confess, I can't see that, I don't feel that in my chest

Ask yourself, what you want outside of obligation
Who are you besides an occupation and a bosses' confirmation?
From the general congregation
I've been straying and I love that
I hope you can see it in the messages I unpack
I hope you can set aside the times I don't respond back
Lately, all my hours hold a weight 'cause I get none back
I bet that my father probably wonder where his son's at
Running from the wrong path
Walking through a sunset

Walking my own way on my own timing
Stop in an oasis if I find it
Watch it dissipate on the horizon
Through and through

Walking my own way on my own timing
Stop and take a break if I'm reminded
Caught up in the chase until I'm guided
To what's true
