My Therapy Is My Mic

Taking a trip through my mind, got me phasing through time, got me seeing all my people
Getting stuck up on the climb, I've been trapped in a circle, too afraid of what to do next
Unlocking thoughts inside my mind, just realizing time's a given. The only thing we
Guaranteed in life is death, so fuck the money, fuck the love, fuck the stress, if you believe
In this vision, let me tell you what I see next

City lights be shining down upon my face
Looking like the opera, and now they see me on the stage, I always hold it proper
Told them I would fill the books, if I had the opportunity, putting out hits, doing my shit
These people they feeling me now, they seeing me out, and I've been trying to channel my thoughts
Aint trying to live like all these people, they be stuck in a box, it got me looking for a way
They always tell you not to stray, but one thing they never say, the right road ain't always paved
Sometimes you gotta pave your way, embracing all the change, knowing where we go
It ain't always safe to stay, I always said we wouldn't know the good without the bad
But what's so great about the good, if I learned to love the bad, we ain't get no second chance
I ain't taking it back, this is my final decision, and I've been putting in time
Making incisions in my game, and I've been changing out
And I've been paving my lane, these people see me now, forget the word of mouth, forget the doubt
Now you got it body by the culture, and I've been losing my mind, I've been losing my thoughts
You look up in the sky, and all you see is vultures, because the music be dying
I'm slowly trying to revive the game, the first step to take change, is acceptance
Fuck all that bullshit that turned you into a savage, the second step to change
Fuck them diamond rings, & fuck all the love, and fuck the money
I've been losing just to prove to somebody, that I ain't willing to change
Somebody had to say it, these bitches getting hella crazy, thinking that they made you
No don't you let them paint you, I use my demons as my guide
I've been keeping them close, doing the most, sharing hosts
They be jacking my posts, uh, but I ain't give it the time of day now
Said fuck all that shit in the past, I cannot change, I will not change now
For who? for you? nah, ayy, breaking it down, but things are never remaining the same now

Uh, ayy, throw the top off the coupe, rolling down the boulevard with my boo
Got her dancing to my tunes, she know the words to my songs
And she know it turn me on, every time she sing along, shh, listen
My therapy is my mic, so I just had to write a song about it

And now I got em bouncing, playing my tunes, bumping my shit
Got me losing my mind all of the time, when I see it I be tripping out
It got me thinking that my value is unknown, cause I ain't start yet
Fuck all the label companies, say you can suck my nut sacks

Independent how I keep it, like my life, it ain't no secret how I did it
That's why they always questioning am I finish, but I could never quit, I'm holding it down
I put my town up on the map, said kona town, a true king, I bring the crown back
flashbacks inside my mind, seeing the sunshine on the tarmac

I lost my head and ever since, it got me looking for a new cap
tryna find a way, I've been lost, tryna find a day
I've been changing the way that I think and react
Selfish enough to put love in the back, and I've been holding it down

I ain't takin it back, said no regrets
And ain't no one gonna change me, I'm thankful for the ones who tried to save me
Focus on time, driving down the road
Ignoring the signs, and ain't nobody paying no attention

So fuck the love and the faith, I've been embracing the change
I've been accepting the hate, all of these people what they gotta say
But I ain't never let em in, no I ain't let em play
It's just a journey through my mind, it's just another day

But I ain't never let em in, no I ain't let em play
Taking a trip right through my mind, fuck you gotta say

What the fuck you gotta say
It's my life, my words, my book, my vision

What the fuck you gotta say
