Serenity

I can still see our old ideas half erased
Planned our escape for a life that I had to chase
Got a little taste of a warm embrace
Just to come back and see I was replaced, what a massive waste
In a lot of ways that pain has built a greater force
Some days I'm crushed by a wave of guilt but I stay the course
Lose your faith when that's all it takes to break a home
I tried to give away the weight, the safest hands are still my own
Been waiting by the phone for a call that never comes
Wonder if it ever does for a dream that never was
For a kid tryna find success where he failed before
A few bailed in the storm but we still prevailed and sailed to shore

I'm just looking for some peace of mind
Start to run behind but what's undefined comes with time
If it's all just cause and effect
I'll accept what I can't change and change what I can't accept
I said I hope you grant me peace of mind
Start to run behind but what's undecided comes with time
And if it's all just cause and effect
I'll accept what I can't change and change what I can't accept

Probably get my flowers when they put it in my casket
Only get the accolades they put it on my jacket
Check the back door I think the homies trying to get me
If I stop doing favors I hope these niggas don't forget me
My bitch don't trust me
I want to love her, she won't let me
She won't admit it but she hate that she met me
I'm sorry I took your innocence
Trying to earn your trust I know I got some diligence

Dropping on you like a check I'm talking stimulus
I got a bad rep with your friends I know I'm infamous
Tattoos the only pain I can feel
Emotionally unavailable I don't know when I will heal
Penthouses don't even get as high as I am
He don't want to argue let's get started, Will.i.am
Huh, I need some peace of mind
Drugs and time, think I'm going blind
I'm dozing off with my seat reclined, yeah

I'm just looking for some peace of mind
Start to run behind but what's undefined comes with time
If it's all just cause and effect
I'll accept what I can't change and change what I can't accept
I said I hope you grant me peace of mind
Start to run behind but what's undecided comes with time
And if it's all just cause and effect
I'll accept what I can't change and change what I can't accept

Seem like I can't get no peace of mind
I hate when people try to waste my time
Seem like I can't get no peace of mind
I almost relapsed on the drugs I do it all the time
I love you though we don't see eye to eye
And there's money on my side this my ride or die
They ask me I retire, I say possibly
Even when I'm out the country ain't no stopping me

Everybody seem replaceable
I tell them all my secrets boy and I hate they know, aye
And she ask me what I want to know
Tell me would you ride to the end and never fold, baby
And she ask me what I want to know
Tell me would you ride to the end and never fold, baby
I don't know what I'd do without those things
In the media they treat me just like I'm a king
