From Martin to Luther
From Luther to Lex
I build my riches by writing all of my thoughts into texts
Those words built up an image of a man greater than the next
A young boy driven mad by his love for his exes
Who guessed it?
Not a soul on Earth could've been close to me
But each experience brought A closer to point Z
The ends of his ropes, they fraying
His parents keep on praying
His heart keeps betraying his ambition
Leaves him to proceed with more than caution
What was he supposed to do?
Make a hit song 'bout dropping out and rolling with the crew?
Lie some more about the happy days
Tell the truth about his loneliness
That juxtaposing hocus pocus Harry Potter shit
These Mood Swings allowing him to rewind, reminisce
But perspective is a helluva a thing, so what's this?
Should I chill with Champagne on the Midnight Blue? That's word to Chris
Or give the people my name, because the Ace won't miss
Tit for tit, tat for tat, I play with both options
Coast hopping, deadly combo, I'm Notorious Tupac-ing
Without the hood in me but my hood's up when I'm training hard, a young prospect
Prophetic draft and I'm top pick, the one option
My brother said it best, that everything's a trinity
Cause without balance, there's no happiness and there's no peace
But if a piece of me wants to end peacefully, beware
Cause looking at my body, all the stress is showing there
Everybody says I love too hard
But I think that's harsh to me
So what if I wear my heart
On my arms
For all to see
Who am I supposed to be?
Tell me who am I supposed to be?
If you know what's best for me
How you know what's best for me?
If I let you in, don't go too far
From my heart, heart
Never could I get rid
Intrinsic values I hold close to my heart but that's a mistake
Opposing thoughts I put on wax, now that's a mixtape
An episode in my life, that's a real EP
Season 3 on that streaming, no more Blueray
I often put my energy in people right in front of me
To the point my people asking what's become of me?
Am I drained out? I can't be if I want success
So if I'm 'bout to fall, I kneel instead and count my blessings
I've been stressing hard from these Stretch Marks
Bench Marks
Thinking 'bout my last project, asking "Will my next chart?"
Asking for a like or a view while I know
People jump to see you still, they don't care to help you grow
Word is bond, but nowadays you meet the superficial
And you fall for traps that make you blame the world for all yo issues
Ain't no comic, I'm jumping out the page like anime shit
Like animation
Adaptation, it ain't the same
I bring you multiple expressions I've encountered
So the people that are hearing catch a verse and feel empowered
Wise men listen well, wise woman speak their heart
Wise children take the lessons even when they stray far
You never notice till you take a good look at who you are
Stare into your eyes, see the true scars, they healing
So now these marks feel like each has a purpose, not to shame
But so when I reach my goals, I can see how far I came
Everybody says I love too hard
But I think that's harsh to me
So what if I wear my heart
On my arms
For all to see
Who am I supposed to be?
Tell me who am I supposed to be?
If you know what's best for me
How you know what's best for me?
If I let you in, don't go too far
From my heart, heart
Pain goes down but Love holds strong
Pain goes down but Love holds strong
Pain goes down but Love holds strong
Pain goes down, Pain goes down
