Tense

You ain’t gotta follow
You ain’t gotta wait on nothin
You ain’t gotta check if it’s hallowed
Plant your feet down and start runnin'
Have faith
Nah nah nah nah nahhh
Nah
Cause you never lose what you don’t have
You can never learn if you don’t lose
You can only step with intent to grow
If you hold yourself back, that’s on you
I as upset, I was on mute
I was unfair, I was close to
Telling off everyone in this house
No space on the couch, there was no room
I was upstage, I was upstairs with the lights off
I was tryna find my voice, I was tryna fill that void, I was tryna be that boy,
I was tryna kill that noise, inside
Yeah, lookin' for a place I could place my drive
Even when they said it was a waste of time
I used that as a map I could trace to climb
Now I’m doing what I’m supposed to
Even though I’m not at where I wanna be
I can still see that I’m finally getting' close to
What I first set out to do, but then out the blue comes
Red flags, setbacks
But still I know you gotta expect that
Just build, let em fellow your set tracks
That’s real, I know you gotta respect that
I cannot wait for tomorrow, yeah
I take the lead and they follow, yeah
I have an issue
I’ve never seen my life in a light where I can admit to
Any success that I’ve had so I jab at the thought of a brand new hill to climb
A new task I can build behind
A new mask that I can wear and hide and use that to detach what I feel inside
Aside from Rap I never had a Plan B
No brace and place for my landing
No space to go to waste, withstanding
See, I never would settle for what they hand me
And I never would settle for playing the backseat
And I never would meddle with any rap beef
And I never took heed, what they would spoon feed
Negativity I would let go in passing
I just
Use that as the gasoline, to gas my dreams
Maybe I will amass a team
Maybe I could use that as a slap to the face to people that lacked faith that
were trashing me
Like «Stop»
Nah nah nah nah nahhh
I’mma take that vain assault with a grain salt and wave it off letting it in my
train of thought
I thought Love was acceptance
I thought cutting you off was protection
I thought being alone was being strong and never needing a hand was being more
of a man
I regret that then
Red flags, setbacks
But still I know you gotta replace that
Just build or just fall right on your face, flat
That’s real, I know you gotta embrace facts
I cannot wait for tomorrow, yeah
I take the lead and they follow, yeah
I don’t want to stay too long
I don’t wanna see you fallin'
I can only stay so long
I can barely hear you callin'
I don’t want to stay too long
I don’t wanna see you fallin'
I can only stay so long
I can barely hear you callin'
Callin' (Yeah)
Callin'
I know you hear me callin'
Callin'
I know you hear me callin'
Callin'
I know you hear me callin'
Callin' (Yeah)
I know you hear me callin‘
I cannot wait for tomorrow
