Step Back

Got a lot of stuff going through my head
Not to worry about what you said
Yeah I'm tired, but I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sometimes you got to step back when you're ahead
Got a lot of stuff going through my head
Not to worry about what you said
Yeah I'm tired, but I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sometimes you got to step back when you're ahead

One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)

Oh my god, oh my god
Everybody shrouded in facades
Can't see their future with their mask off
Blast off, like a rocket or torpedo
We go, zero to one hundred, real quick
Riding el camino
I been replaying all these memories like they're on demand
See I've never been really big on following plans
Just as soon as I get on course, I drift off again
Not so easy to get a grip when you been given shoddy hands
But these hands were blessings, crawling when I couldn't stand
Arms extend, trying to reach knowledge that's not easy to comprehend
Taking leaps I knew I couldn't land, still I jump
If I miss, get back, don't exist, do too much
Cause if you don't, the next one will
Shoot your shot, and shoot to kill
Trying to build myself into a human highlight reel
I keep it canon, can't cover scars if they're branded
Just wanted to share this incase you been feeling stranded

Got a lot of stuff going through my head
Not to worry about what you said
Yeah I'm tired, but I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sometimes you got to step back when you're ahead
Got a lot of stuff going through my head
Not to worry about what you said
Yeah I'm tired, but I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sometimes you got to step back when you're ahead

One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)

I wish that I could tell you, that I have it all together
But I don't, so I won't, but still you should never tether
Down to anything that could change in a moments notice
They say home is where the heart is, but some of ya'll are homeless
That's not a diss
More like a wish
That some day you'll relent
But the emptiness... of promises
I can understand your descent
Into madness, sadness, happiness, you had it
Then it went and vanished, can't remember how it happened
But here we are in present day, trying to suppress the pain
Led astray, pray for sun, but instead it rains...
That's just life, is so cliche, comes at you fast with no delay
There is no map to know the way, but in the end I hope you stay
And I hope that when you need it, you will let us know
And just know, I only write the things I felt before

Got a lot of stuff going through my head
Not to worry about what you said
Yeah I'm tired, but I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sometimes you got to step back when you're ahead
Got a lot of stuff going through my head
Not to worry about what you said
Yeah I'm tired, but I'll sleep when I'm dead
Sometimes you got to step back when you're ahead

One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)
One foot back, take a look (step back)
