Tighten Up

(Lighter sparking cigarette in the forest)
Where I'm at not all solo
I'm sick of watching from the nosebleed row
I'm the next one from zero
I don't strive to be the world's hero
Busy staying out of broke
I understand when your pockets choke
Financially I have to nope
Investing in my career so it does not croup
Knowledge a pool I love to float
In grad school I tend to soak
Holistically that transformed my game to soap
Cocaine crazy my substance dope
No need to pull me I'm far from rope
I chase dreams like a dog to a bone
My checkpoint might be the throne
Platinum one day will be my home
I just need to tighten up
Continue to show love
Do not lose my trust
Ensure my skin tough
I just need to tighten up
Continue to show love
Do not lose my trust
Ensure my skin tough
I be so tempted to quit
That's my mindset when I was a jit
Sharing emotions to people who care
Betting they'll feel me was odds unfair
Many would listen because of the moment
Outside that framework no support they'll show it
Is what it is that's the nature of life
Support is not given or bought overnight
Proving myself is what I do best
People test me like teachers not impressed
I'm tired, exhausted, and mentally drained
Writing these lyrics be easing my pain
Infectious neurologically
Sometimes it's best to let me be
This biased world is a stressor
And it seems to not get better
Uh
I just need to tighten up
Continue to show love
Do not lose my trust
Ensure my skin tough
I just need to tighten up
Continue to show love
Do not lose my trust
Ensure my skin tough
(Fire growing in forest)
