[Verse 1: Solo] I'm feeling like I need to write this song My mind cluttered like the space on the desk that I write this from Filled with half-empty glasses from late nights sitting in darkness Spent wondering where I went wrong Been a minute since I didn't feel like I'd been gone Somewhere in your city limits wherever the mic is on, you'll find me With my man A. Diddy right beside me Hand on heavy heart I don't take this shit lightly Pen in my hand from a four-star joint in a foreign land Bought with the words of an honest man Keep your dollars man, this ain't no cash for comment scam Tryna document the mess we're in since the comet landed For better or worse, we ride tandem Whether it's fall or fly, I'm just that sort of guy True kings don't demand respect, they command it And inspire when all hope has been abandoned But all I ever want to do is sit on the couch Twist my worries in a spliff and blow em into the clouds I'm sorry, you looking for Nick? Well he isn't around I ain't seen him been a minute since he visited now So if you see him would you give him a pound, tell him we miss him Tell him his mama love, she wanna hug him and kiss him Tell him not to think about doing nothing stupid Just to go off the map and come up missing-listen- My ears ringing from the bombs that I've dropped But you can hear the crowd roar, they don't want me to stop And what would I do if I did? This is all that I got That feeling I get up my spine when I'm rocking the spot So honest to God, you gonna get it whether you want it or not Johnny on the spot, representing for the Horrorsquad I'm on and on till the break of dawn, I flow deep My crew's No-Doz so don't sleep, Till you lost your sheep like Little Bo Peep Now you're tryna solve some problems that you just don't need While I conquer obstacles and proceed To my sweet release as I go free
[Hook x 2: Solo] So when you're looking in that mirror what you gonna see? Is it who you are? Who you pretend to be? Facing off with your own worst enemy The same as it's always been, you've gotta set yourself free
[BRIDGE: Solo] I can see it all from right here I don't know what's holding me back Vision blurred but I'm seeing so clear I wonder if I missed my chance I can see it all from right here And I gotta push through it "I'm living for the one day whatever may come" I wanna see it done so I'll be the one to do it
