| My eternal clock ticking
|
| Has got a nigga tripping
|
| Stressed for a living
|
| The pressure, I can feel it
|
| The sky ain’t the limit
|
| I’m breaching through the ceiling
|
| Hard to keep composure when your heart ain’t even in it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep your shit together when everything’s falling apart, god
|
| My mind been running in circles constantly
|
| It’s got to be the opposite of positive velocity
|
| My head still in the clouds
|
| Looking at stars, that’s astronomy
|
| While pondering powerful possibilities and beautiful soliloquies
|
| The characteristic traits of the greats
|
| Save me a place and a plate, and I’ll say grace while you save face
|
| You copping out, like copping pleas, appeased by your saving grace
|
| These niggas talking beef but never speak when we raise the stakes
|
| Cease to bring the heat and keep it moving like roller skates
|
| Protected 'bout as well as JFK in the motorcade
|
| I cascade over the grass knoll by a flagpole
|
| Aimed at a moving target, hit or miss, at least I shot my shot, uh
|
| My eternal clock ticking
|
| Has got a nigga tripping
|
| Stressed for a living
|
| The pressure, I can feel it
|
| The sky ain’t the limit
|
| I’m breaching through the ceiling
|
| Hard to keep composure when your heart ain’t even in it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep your shit together when everything’s falling apart, god
|
| If it ain’t one thing, it’s always something ain’t it?
|
| They gon' complain about the picture, irregardless of who painted it
|
| The color composition and the hue becomes irrelevant
|
| Could make a masterpiece but they gon' point out the flaws
|
| Applaud that it’s off, and tell you how to do your job
|
| Critics and heretics are one and the same, they hypocrites
|
| People love giving opinions assuming you give a shit
|
| I tune it out, I’m not attentive, no I wasn’t listening
|
| Thinking you could do it better well go 'head and do it then
|
| Watch you fail, come back and tell me how that feel
|
| These niggas blind to the signs, yeah they might need braille
|
| And the gon' fold under the pressure, that ain’t hard to tell, nah
|
| My eternal clock ticking
|
| Has got a nigga tripping
|
| Stressed for a living
|
| The pressure, I can feel it
|
| The sky ain’t the limit
|
| I’m breaching through the ceiling
|
| Hard to keep composure when your heart ain’t even in it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep it
|
| Tell me how you keep your shit together when everything’s falling apart, god |
