pay my respects

Hello there
So glad that you could make it to the service
You can take your seat in the family and friends row upfront
Just make sure you leave the space next to Mr. Hollywood empty
Welcome to the funeral

Yeah, yeah, look
Baby, I'm finally free
But there ain't no safety net under my feet
See, nobody taught me to grieve
I work through the pain 'til I feel a release
Pray I don't lose freedom to dream
I look in the mirror
The ending is closer to me than it previously seemed
Planned on diving head-first 'til I got to the edge of the board
Then I questioned my scheme, questioned my team
Lost all my brothers, I lost everything
Was overworked, now I just overthink
Chasing love in these birds that they can't even bring
Pillar of salt if I go look behind
Moments of mourning if we go rewind
Prince to a king how I got this anointing
Ms. Blidge got real love, while I got disappointment

See, I just been filled with regret
Lay all my demons to rest
See that my childhood dead
Let me go pay my respects
I just keep looking ahead
Only see guilt I reflect
See that my childhood dead
Let me go pay my-
Look (It's Chelsea Baby)

Chelsea Baby ain't a baby no more
Big one-eight bruh, I done jumped off the porch
Reverence for what I lived through before
But, anxiety attached to closing this door
This the funeral look how I arrive
I was 5 when Daddy said not to cry
10, when Mommy said I'm not good enough
Ellie said 3 words that eat me alive
16 years old when they questioned my drive
Worked so hard for 2 years that I'm losing my mind
Last time I slept good was when Kobe died
But I have to expand 'til I can't be denied
6 years spent tryna bag up a dime
Now I constantly feel like I wasted my time
Fell in love around 12, I still haven't found balance
And closing that casket is my biggest challenge

See, I just been filled with regret
Lay all my demons to rest
See that my childhood dead
Let me go pay my respects
I just keep looking ahead
Only see guilt I reflect
See that my childhood dead
Let me go pay my respects

Yes yes, let me go pay my respects
Yes yes, let me go pay my respects
Yes yes, let me go pay my respects
Yes yes, let me go pay my respects, bruh
