The Calm

Uh, I'm just so far gone, October's own, please leave me alone Drunk off champagne screamin' in the phone See my house is not a home, f*** is goin' on Where did we go wrong, where do we belong Caught up in the game and it's one I can't postpone Meaning if it rains I'm the one it's raining on When my diamond chain is on still nothing set in stone Women borrow sweaters that I spray with my cologne And tell me don't forget 'em and I promise that I won't Feelin' so distant from everyone I've known To make everybody happy I think I would need a clone Places we get flown, parties that we've thrown I've done more for this city then these rappers that have blown It's only been three years look at how I've grown I'm just in my zone, I call this s*** the calm Yea, but I'm the furthest thing from calm Dedicated to my mom, and I swear my word is bond Everything will be okay and it won't even take that long You can see it in my face or even read it on my palm Leader of the new school it's proven and it's known I'm sittin' in a chair but in the future it's a throne I know you like to worry it'd be better if you don't cause You know, everything gone be alright, I promise. Apologize to you know, to put y'all in this position and vent to y'all but Forty mom always say, "Don't ask permission, just ask forgiveness" You know, so, forgive me. Yeah, yeah Uh, and life is so insane, look what I've became, tryna make a name All my first dates are interrupted by my fame Because every picture taken is a fan that you can gain They love it when you smile unaware that it's a strain It's a curse you gotta live with when you born to entertain Women need attention and for women will complain Develop hatred for men and say that your the one to blame Tryna enjoy myself with Taz in Miami at the game I just wish he knew how much it really weighed like Dwayne It's a weight that's on my chest whoever spottin' me is playin' So I'm liftin' all alone try not to get a sprain Hopin' Western Union doing currency exchange Cause my dad called and got me feelin' guilty and ashamed Like, how I had a Rolls and I went and got a range And he payin' for his cigarettes with dollars and some change Damn, and I could only feel his pain Cause in Memphis Tennessee there's only so much to attain So I'm fillin' out the form at the counter once a-gain He say he love me I just hope he doesn't say that s*** in vain Why oh girl heart is in a slang Call me heartbreak Drake I'm the hardest one to tame As a man I'm just honest as a artist I'm a king With my own set of problems that be sittin' on my brain Yea, and see this is the thing What they viewing as braggin' is the way that I maintain The s*** I write while staring out the window of a plane Is the single handed reason I remain Me, yea, uh, I said I call this s*** the calm. But I'm the furthest thing from calm. I swear I'm puttin' on but they always Wanna ask what type of act you puttin' on like, man.
