Cleaning tables and sweeping While waiting for 12 to hit I'm anxious and hype Cause my favorite artist dropping new shit Five years since his last release And I wonder what he gon spit Cause every time I hear him rap Is when I start to have that itch To get back in my bag Been pressing pause and feeling discouraged Numbers are going stagnant I fear that I may not flourish 12 am, the album dropped As I listened I start to hear The shit he saying now Is shit I been saying for many years WTF If this man is a genius, then what am I Same concepts, same introspection Same kinda lines The more I think about it I might have been way before my time And the world take some notice If they listened to my rhymes Blame myself, I don't think I really put the Time and money into marketing myself It was the art that kept me hungry But my business was a mess Ain't have no trust cause I been got before Fake promoters pimping out artists for bread, I kinda thought That every one was shisty Either that or cause of my ethnicity Or color, or my style, they didn't like me I bodied every show And every song I wrote was Catchy And my bars would stay on point But how I dressed was nothing flashy He had good kid, I had before and after He had to pimp a butterfly I drop I know now a couple years after Purple skies, and the fall My singles had em in awe But just the people that heard em That's what forced me to withdraw Social media was killing me Was doubting abilities Questioning my career If I should look for more stability What good is all my talent Speaking my truth and humility If I don't see the spoils of the shit I've done in this industry Now I'm thirty-two And the feeling I get is haunting If I continue to chase my dream Will the outcome be daunting Seen men so pigeon held that they stay stuck in it while staying poor And I refuse to be that man to have my kid sleep on the floor Is this just a thought Or a cognitive distortion Is this being real Or me being overly cautious Is age just a number Or a concern i create for me Compared to other people the same age as me Who I believe might have their life together Worried it might be to late for me To succeed in this game Or if this game is really made for me Seem like overthinking Has really served as a plague for me Self doubt and resistance has kept me from Risk and bravery And I don't want you to wait as long as me to see Blatantly You maximum potential requires you to live faithfully You got what it takes And your excuse is an entire lie You have the same inside you As the people your inspired by The work that you put in is the only thing that you control And If you really wanna see results It's best you let it go The universe and god will stay in motion What they're meant to do Get what you put in What you get out it is what's meant for you I'm learning this hard way And still don't got it down pact But If I'm moving forward Then that's progress and I found that Slow mo is better then no mo What they don't know is What they don't see when the door closed On your own road to recovery It require some seclusion Sometimes you gotta stand still In order to keep it moving Sometimes just staying busy Serves a blur and an Illusion That your doing something great But what your doing ain't conducive To your goal I'm keeping it a hundred and two I wanna learn from my mistakes While teaching something to you I wanna evolve as a man And reach my maximum view I want you love who you are Not just the things that you do I wanna build my faith I wanna have my space I wanna know my place I wanna put some things into this world I know it will embrace And like my inspirations I wanna inspire others Believe in my inner genius And know that I'm worthy of it for real
