Stranger Things (feat. Traum Diggs)

Unprecedented access but we don't fact check
The phone smart but we dumb; what is freedom?
An illusion, a delusion, ignorance, confusion
Profiteers and target boosting, algorithms ruling
1000 posts about the problems I see no solutions
Why is you thinking what you thinking? Doing what you doing?
Last week, I told my girl I need to buy a desk
Turned on the app and seen a dozen ads about the desk
Every time I see you winning I get more stressed
More money more trips I get more depressed
TMZ more the press than the press
Black bodies in duress that make more press
More or less the precedent's here for death and despair
The weapons is near the lessons is clear
Cause fear and anger only lead to danger
This world is upside down and things is getting stranger

And nowadays I find myself focusing on 11:11
Paying attention to signals and signs
These riddles and rhymes got my mind racing
Tracing steps got me vexed about time wasted
What's time? Redefine it and find patience
With myself as a man for plans that might have failed
Promises never kept potential that's unfulfilled
The real will always rise, forever is all we have
These lessons is what we learn, these blessings is up for grabs
Mine for the taking, nevermind you forsake it
There's two types of habits, few of mine need replacing
Just think about the grind and be patient
You know it ain't the shine that we chasing
Was never me
My only enemy is in my head with me
Try to ignore what it be telling me
To keep it G is muscle memory
Can't let myself get ahead of me
Put my pride to the side try to lead with some empathy
That's some grown man energy, for real
