Peace of Mind

Oh, clarity's all I need
I've been on the verge of a breakdown from these challenges I receive
Tell 'em I won't break now, won't bring a smile to my enemies
I been blessed enough so far, but still the Lord's got me on my knees
Still working
I've made mistakes and I've learnt
You think you know what I'm earning?
You need to worry about your worth

I been through hardship, I'll tell you
There was only a pound in my purse
Still grind this shit, I ain't made it
Ain't gonna lie it coulda been worse
My phone's been ringing off lately
I save numbers as "Don't answer"
I know that shit, it sounds rude
But I get that trait from my father

I look above and see mountains
In Turkey now as I'm writing
Shit, clarity's all I needed
It took time to understand timing

Please understand that these are my thoughts
Yeah, that I share with you, I care for you
When you're down, just press play, and I'll be there for you
Like you can count on me
Yeah, you can count on me
Us uniting as a unit is what I'd be glad to see
Talk to me

In search of this, peace of mind
Peace of mind, peace within myself
Peace within this fuckin' universe if you will like
And in this industry, and within everything just like
There's too much war already, there's too much segregation
There's too much discrimination there's too much (give me peace of mind)
Too much of anything is bad for you right, so
I don't know man, for fuck's sake (give me peace of mind)

In a different timezone, different place
I hardly remember days, I partly feel quite ashamed
That I rarely remember faces
My artistry hasn't changed
That's probably the one thing that actually can maintain
These just are my thoughts

See that I share with you, I care for you
When you're down, just press play, and I'll be there for you
Like you can count on me
You can count on me
Yeah, you can count on me
Go

Oh, vanity's all they teach
They ain't tryna work for nothing any more 'til their salary has increased
Get down on your knees
Pray to the Almighty
'Cause when that day comes, you're either pissed or you got lucky
This won't be the worst of my days
They will remember me for paths that I've paved
Take the stone with your right hand and make sure they see on them stars, my name is engraved
Is that Hollywood fame?

Is that selling your soul for a little bit of change?
Is that burning coal for a little bit of flame?
No control, I'm a little insane
Oh, let go, have a little champagne
Sip that slow 'cause our aim is to maintain
Is that a gimmick you play games
Live show, there ain't a limit on that stage
That's that, uh!

Keep me to yourself and don't share me to no one else
Have I been to this place before?
Can I mold and break down the door?
Am I lost in my thoughts?

This is what I share with you, I care for you
When you're down, just press play, and I'll be there for you
Like you can count on me
Yeah, you can count on me
Us uniting as a unit is what I'd be glad to see

See how I be on the edge
I know you had the knowledge I had inserted
The way I did it on 'em
Never under pressure, I ain't trying to say
Never forever telling me, Simz you just shitted on 'em
Stars, you can see I'm headed for 'em
And even if you're headed this way
I don't wanna be in the presence, so I'ma teleport
I been waiting for it
Now I'm ready for it

Tell me how to find your way home when the lights go
I was thinkin' 'bout the past then my mind froze
Brain freeze, I believe that shit is ice-cold
Killin' every single rapper, they can die slow
You can live fast and then wonder where the time goes
'Til I build it, I'm just tryna get my mind blown
He be lookin' for the ones, you be looking for the one
And just both of them are lookin' for the right souls
That's

Them in a different timezone, different place
They hardly remember days, they partly feel quite ashamed
That they rarely remember faces
Their artistry does not change
That's probably the one thing they actually can maintain
So these just are their thoughts

See that they share with you, they care for you
When you're down, just press play, and they'll be there for you
Like you can count on me
You can count on me
You can count on me
