[Hey, miss! Who's there?]
[Famous Amos]

I be ballin', and ballin'
I can't see the future, but what am I causin'?
Affecting the numbers, I don't do no slumber
I keep gettin' at it, I eat like a maggot
I got some bad habits, I've made some mistakes
I'm in a strait-jacket, but my soul they can't take
I might not wear glasses, but I see what it takes
I'm staking my claim, my claim to fame
I still feel the same, running this game into the ground
As these bitches surround me, uh

No distractin' interactions, that's what I been on
Had the feeling that maybe I was slackin' off
So I'm backin' off of the chats and blogs, Snapchat and all
Un-like
Most people I know, living life through the lens of an iPhone
Goin' viral, for awhile, in denial
And that's just not my style
I'm more like
Eliot Ness, untouchable with every flex
Non-refundable with every check
Indestructible, treasury strength
Every sentence, and I keep going 'til I'm out of my breath
I'm tryna, make the world go away
Until it's something better than what it is today
But I know I gotta play a part
To make some change through art
I'm just afraid it's not quite the way we on

So I'm going out on my own terms
But will I own myself when it's all over?
(So I'm going out on my own terms)
Give me some padded walls, it don't feel that bad at all
The more that you live life, the faster it goes (But will I own myself when it's all over?)
What does it all matter for?
Wonder what does it all matter for?

Walkin' around with my strait-jacket on
Heading to my classes, shackled in bonds
Money on my mind and a little on my wrist watch
All these motherfuckers busy watchin' TikToks, their brains switched off
Things have been off, all I hear is chit-chat and shit talk
Lately I ain't had the energy to fight my enemies
In fact, the other day one befriended me, so maybe it's the end of me
Seems my actions have penalties not revealed to me
Or said to me until it crumbled down tremendously
If Heaven be where I finally find peace
Let it be before I'm decreased, that I'm deceased, so they don't feed me to the beast
My anger grows like yeast in heat, infecting everyone I meet
Take a seat, watch me eat alone
Sittin' back, stoned at home
Never had me sold on growin' old, I'm tryna own some gold robes
Where they can bury my bones
A different realism, that ain't so appealing is it?
Let me be specific, I'm getting big
Practicing nepotism for those who stuck with me, strugglin' through shit and mud
We gon' cause a cataclysm of makin' big decisions in the span of seconds and minutes
Don't give a damn, they all just follow religion
I'm doin' something different, movin' with faith
Saved by-, saved by-, saved by grace, but it don't change my rage
Or the stage in God's campaign, so I just hope He waits
For me to be made, before I die by the blade
I just hope I'm saved, and that God waits
For me to be made, before I die by the blade

So I'm going out on my own terms
(Give me some padded walls, it don't feel that bad at all)
But will I own myself when it's all over? (The more that you live life, the faster it goes)
So I'm going out on my own terms, (What does it all matter for?)
But will I own myself when it's all over?
(Wonder what does it all matter for?)
