I’m like what happened to us, maybe I’m rapping too much |
I been missing your touch, sometimes I’m out and I lust |
What if love ain’t enough, and all we have is this trust |
What if I’m fucking that up, so you don’t trust in me much |
I’m wasting your time, to say I’m straight, I’d be lying |
It’s either you or this music but I can’t make up my mind |
I’d throw you a line, I’d give you a sign |
Right now I’m through with the trying, I think you ready to fly |
I settle for less so when I’m tired of stress |
I go through the motions pretending I’m at my best |
Fall victim to flesh, I live to be fresh |
But this ain’t what I expect because my life is a wreck |
I run out of breath cause I ain’t taking the steps |
Money comes and it goes 'til family’s all I got left |
I’m seeing my growth, but I’m still from myself |
You’ll be hollering out next because you’re ready to fly |
I can’t find the words so you’ll just fill in the blanks |
I’m doing the norm and not what it takes |
I’ll keep folding my cards and you’ll keep raising the stakes |
'Til we forget about us and what we have is too late |
I know in your heart, you ain’t conditioned to race |
So I steady the wheel, forever pumping the brakes |
Resort to the bottle, that’s how I deal with the shakes |
Pray for these haters, that’s how I deal with the hate |
Look to the sky, don’t be content with the now |
You ain’t concerned with the why, you just wanna know how |
I didn’t give it a chance, when you just wanna be down |
And save me from myself, but I’m wanting to drown |
King is much more than the weight of a crown |
As good as it feels, that ain’t the way that it sounds |
Being single is cool 'til ain’t nobody around |
Then I’m chasing you down, cause you was ready to fly |
I can’t be what you want me to be |
You’re shooting too high cause you ain’t aiming at me |
One minute you’re calling out for the D |
Then the next minute you wanna be free |
Then the next minute you hollering out peace |
Although I know it’s a war and there’ll be blood in the street |
If you call don’t be frustrated at me |
Just leave you’re heart at the beep, cause mine is harder to reach |
Cause mine is harder to see |
And that don’t make it harder to cheat |
Being friends would make it harder to breathe |
So if you ready to fly, just forget about me |
But if you willing to try then I’m willing to leap |
Out of the window of pain and fall in love at your feet |
I ain’t the man you want me to be |
I guess that’s what’s been bothering me |
