fishbowl
From the basement to the pavement, paid my dues
Now my face on television, on the news
Singin' blues, fake friends, every move's on cue
Ain't got money but I still got the attitude
Ain't got no time, livin' in the fishbowl
Every move scrutinized, bout to take its toll
Can't breathe, can't sleep, feel like I'm always on patrol
Never been to prison but I'm tryna make parole
Yeah, I'm tryna make parole, already sold my soul
Feelin' higher but I think I'm standin' in a hole
My life's a lie, I live it every day
Lookin' for an exit but I'm stuck on display
I'm about to go live but I'm still tryna break free
Livin' after midnight, got them all watching me
Trapped in a situation but it ain't what it seems
All I want is peace but I'm lost in my dreams
Eyes on me, everywhere I be
Tryna find my way but I can't break free
I'm in the fishbowl and there's always someone watchin' me
Who am I supposed to be when my dad dies
Am I supposed to act surprised? I watched him break before my eyes
Years of providing took its toll, I sympathize
And I don't wanna generalize
The grieving stages, but I feel they're overrated
Cause you never appreciated
The time you had with them when they were alive
I got ten years left, I'ma make the best of 'em
Fuck all the rest of 'em
Livin' how I wanna live is how I get the best of 'em
Play it close to vest with 'em
I go chest to chest with 'em
(Now if you're faced with a situation
That you need to use your gun...)
(No, what are you doing)
(No, you're not)
(Stop)
(What are you doing)
(You're not posting this)
(Brian)
(Brian)
(Brian)
(Brian, stop)
(Stop, stop)
(*bang*)
(Just go, just go with it)
Stuck in a cycle, feelin' psycho, but I don't know yet I might go
From zero to hero, like I'm Michael, Jackson or Jordan? I'm white tho
Distorting my vision, every decision, a precision incision
Cutting through the noise, no illusion, my mission, uh
I'm a rocket in a bottle, full throttle, and it's time I break free from the shackle of
Living in a fishbowl (fishbowl)
I'm a juggernaut, an astronaut, interlocked afterthought
I got a plot, to break the knot, every shot, I give it all I got but
Someone's watching me (gang, gang)
Someone's watching me (gang, gang)
Someone's watching me (gang, gang)
Someone's watching me (gang, gang)
Don't believe the hype
I'm a real mother fucker
Always keep it hunnid
I don't give a fuck
(Start over from the beginning)
(And be more dramatic)
