before i knew what i was doing i was trying to do something that s the definition listen of a know it all young n hard headed hardly headed in directions i intended where i ended wasn t deaded like no exit except the entrance now i m making my entrance as if i m hopping the fences thinking i m being careful but really i m just an infant adolescent at best had a lesson at livin given to me the stress inherited with the vision wool over my eyes blue say is the sky gray is the true color but who sayeth the why so do that make me pessimistic if i fill up my head with the best of this shit niggas say i m cool shorties say i m their lipstick on the tip of their tongue is my they re whisperin let s make it apply right place and the time tight space and the vibe is right for lacing a rhyme might say i m in prime light laced in the lime bittersweet is the beat and together taste is divine lemonade in my shine dimmer shade in the blind spots in my mirror forward never rewind plot s vividly clearer not saying that i m knowing just what i m doin but got faith in my grind so stop haters you re lying if you say that you can get it how i get it swab test you failed can t spit it how i spit it one of these days baby i hope to be whatever they be is all that i hope to be one of these days baby i hope to be they re saying oh bring that real shit something you can feel shit numb to that dumb it down spun overkill shit run over hills shit dated like the fifth wheel hate it when they made it but they praise it just to get deals me never that man that s never happening see i be rapping for that feeling i got back when i was riding on a big wheel when friends owing me a dollar was a big deal sunday night grandmama would cook a big meal meaning that i do it for the innocence in it still and if i m naive fuck it then shit will seems better even though the weather seem chill spleen chills at the idea seeming fake even though imitation makes mean bills i mean innovation will get you recognition but keep it real is really code for when the check is missin and that s cool cause me i m a realist optimistically drinking from the glass of the pessimistic hey check it listen 2
