Clockwork (feat. Big Homie Wes)
(Slow it down for a moment)
(Yo)
You talking fast
I'm on my second glass
Slow it down for a moment
Let's focus on the facts
I only ask
For a lowering of masks
I was hoping you could show me
How you covered up those tracks
Some of us still laugh
Its simple math
Those of us who open up
Show growth in every rap
I stay rowing on my raft
Composed of scraps
Knowing it still holds enough
Took my time but now I'm back
This energy I pack
Just a scratch upon the surface
What's lurking in the black
Shadows that I track
That'll soon be clear
I tattled on my past
I'm moving through the gears
Like its clockwork
This is fodder for my ears
Heard it as a toddler
Now I'm speaking as a peer
I'm at peace here
When this is all that I can hear
Words are all I offer
So I'm sure to spit them clear
I'm on feral time
Aligned with the stars
How much I sacrifice
To get this far
Rap about you had it hard
I didn't have none at all
No plan B for me to fall
Rise above
If I do for you
Its out the kindness of
The help I never had
Needed a helping hand
All I had were grams
Lost my dad became a man
Lost my fucking mind
Trying to understand
I'll never understand
Had a hundred chances
Blood spilt into Sanskrit
Tears evaporate from the canvas
Given the advantage
By every shot that landed
Took the pain revamped it
Shift of chemicals in the brain
And nothing looked the same
Seeping on the information
That your retinas contain
The digital age
In an ocean
Of signals and waves
(Yo)
You talking fast
I'm on my second glass
Slow it down for a moment
Let's focus on the facts
I only ask
For a lowering of masks
I was hoping you could show me
How you covered up those tracks
Some of us still laugh
Its simple math
Those of us who open up
Show growth in every rap
I stay rowing on my raft
Composed of scraps
Knowing it still holds enough
Took my time but now I'm back
