Yo, something should've told me these days would come, Faith is at a low and life weighs a ton Wanna lay down and die but I'm way too young And no, we didn't come all this way for none Flash back, 5 years we was brave and dumb Wanna rap, change the world, rearrange the sun Had hopes so we waited 'til the paper come The paper never came so now we jaded, son
Never been about the money, it's more the time we spent Keep thinkin' I'm too old to shuck and jive for rent Friends ask me what's wrong I've got a lot to tell 'em How can I tell them I no longer feel in line with them? Travel the world, autographs we be signing them Had enough girls but honestly I'm tired of them Trying to win, still living in this life in sin And I would give it all away to some enlightenment Right now Right now, feel like I'm wasting my time It's like I'm waiting in line with no patience to finally make it And I'm trying to find a place to recline And relieve this stress that weighs on my mind 'Cause right now it's all so fake and I'm trying to escape and find a little space in time to myself For my mind to be healthy enough to deal with some of the cards that I dealt to myself Right now
It's been a long road it seems Just trying to mold reality from hopes and dreams And now, I'm not so sure it's the life I wanted Might just call it quits, get a wife and all that and just settle down It's the truth if I sound a little bitter don't get it misconstrued Just a bit confused, sick of drifting through this life I want to see it from a different view But I ain't got what I wanted to get off my chest, off it yet Not about to stop and step away
'Cause someone never dropped a cheque, Was never in it for the money, y'all let's not forget I mean, I've got respect and that should be enough I guess 5 years back it would be but what's next? Now don't get me wrong, I'm thankful for all this success And I'm not depressed, I'm just stressed Right now
Feel like I'm wasting my time It's like I'm waiting in line with no patience to finally make it And I'm trying to find a place to recline And relieve this stress that weighs on my mind 'Cause right now it's all so fake and I'm trying to escape and find a little bit of space in time to myself For my mind to be healthy enough to deal with some of the cards that I dealt to myself Right now
