[00:21.31]Time-tested, I could never trust my methods
[00:24.28]Always undermine my efforts
[00:26.20]On the outside, lookin' quite mild tempered
[00:28.75]On the inside, I fester (three, two, one)
[00:30.65]Wait (ha-ha-ha)
[00:31.55]What's my allegiance?
[00:32.95]Why am I defeatist?
[00:34.19]Hues behind my eyes are precisely the skies of Egypt
[00:36.62]Alright, alright, alright
[00:37.52]I don't like it, we try delete it
[00:38.93]Deciding on not proceeding
[00:40.18]Fuck, tryna define an Eden
[00:41.53]I think I need a break
[00:43.10]Sick of the forest, sick of the pain
[00:44.42]Don't be alarmed, do me a favor
[00:45.83]Take me apart and put me away
[00:47.28]And set me free
[00:48.57]Let me pause for the day
[00:49.85]Count the scars in my brain
[00:51.19]And the cards in my hands
[00:52.53]I'm reassessing, I need a blessing
[00:54.67]I need attention, depleted essence, I see no exit
[00:57.56]I see you when you see I'm jealous
[00:59.15]I seek for this needy depression to now cease
[01:01.23]Beating my psyche with the frequent questions
[01:03.45]You seem so comfortable in your skin
[01:05.24]While mine never seems to fit
[01:06.31]If I keep stretching, it'll rip
[01:07.76]And now I'm almost at the point
[01:09.07]Where it seems sensible to quit
[01:10.31]But maybe I could still learn something
[01:11.88]I'll eventually forget, so
[01:13.55]You do you, but homie tell me, what am I?
[01:15.91]Quick before I'm out of time
[01:17.63]'Cause time is what I need
[01:18.91]Seek the truth, it's the clock will go on
[01:21.07]Despite how I feel, it'll stop for no one
[01:23.49]I said, you do you, but homie tell me, what am I?
[01:26.59]Quick before I'm out of time
[01:28.29]'Cause time is what I need
[01:29.52]Seek the truth, it's the clock will go on
[01:31.63]Despite how I feel and it'll stop for no one
[01:34.88]Time's bested me through high pressure
[01:37.15]Always dashed in on disasters, trimesters
[01:39.54]When I found the job, but climbed to find vegeance
[01:42.10]And all I've found is that I'm injured
[01:44.29]Wait (ha-ha-ha)
[01:45.02]Why would I need it?
[01:46.18]Who am I defeating?
[01:47.45]Fuck a corporate ladder and boring pattern repeating
[01:50.22]I ain't sort of average
[01:51.11]I'm door-slamming, I'm leaving
[01:52.32]I'm no longer embarrassed
[01:53.79]No more rapping in secret
[01:55.17]My mom, now says she's proud
[01:56.45]My mom, now says she's sorry
[01:57.74]My girl, says she's still proud
[01:59.01]My mind, still aims to harm me
[02:00.25]Success, doesn't disarm me
[02:01.50]Still stressed, still don't belong here
[02:03.08]I'm threatened by the calm
[02:04.06]'Cause I'm blessed, but no accomplishing so
[02:05.98]My circumstances different
[02:07.54]But my thinking ain't
[02:08.79]Every time I throw out anger it just ricochets
[02:11.22]Sometimes the blues can dull
[02:12.85]But the pinks they fade
[02:13.97]And so it's rare for me to sing my praise for too long
[02:16.81]'Cause I do wrong, and then I cave
[02:18.75]Always felt like nothing ever gon' end my pain
[02:21.16]Try to remember every step I've made
[02:23.13]In the right direction, try, accept the flesh I'm in (yeah)
[02:26.98]You do you, but homie tell me, what am I?
[02:29.54]Quick before I'm out of time
[02:31.20]'Cause time is what I need
[02:32.52]Seek the truth, it's the clock will go on
[02:34.54]Despite how I feel, it'll stop for no one
[02:37.38]You do you, but homie tell, what am I?
[02:40.05]Quick before I'm out of time
[02:41.63]'Cause time is what I need
[02:42.93]Seek the truth, it's the clock will go on
[02:45.18]Despite how I feel it'll stop for no one
