What if we are shadows Like versions of ourselves What if we fight battles Sail the waves looking for something else When you dream, do you dream in colors You see the world for what it is Empty space, in this time, I'll be fine (If I, If I) Go back to the future Seen it all, done it all, rise and fall Ima still be here in the future (x8) Benevolent and heaven scented How I was born onto earth Adversary, a provider from God It's already scary and gentrified Before I even grown to be 20 Blessings of adolescence I made before, fine dimes and pretty pennies Always putting my two cents in So a nigga always watch what they say But on the contrary, a nigga just see what the blend is Feeding me happiness through a straw Commissary blessings But that ain't enough to boost for what I'm going through Childhood friends passing away like fresh morning dew Every day my mind is laced, strapped up Protection on waists of Rugrats Tryna find angelic sounds in this place We shot for the stars, and we ended up with more case of color blue Same shade as the pill I'm now forced to take Screaming lord, take the wheel, hit the emergency brake Never stop, voices in my head And I hear them say Seen it all, done it all, rise and fall Ima still be here in the future (x3) If time is of the essence Type to take it out of context Conflicts with imaginary enemies I give cold stares, walking everything that illuminates fear Battle you with myself Stop trusting every help As the lunatic And they pray that the night fall Even the clock got his hand together Shade night a slave to [? I used to the music Foot soldier on the beat street Hoping I don't lose it, tho Need your time of day With the time nigga, I prove it back Me in this fourth corner, poverty stricken solution Mind reaching as high as pollution Roaming as these ruins Out of shape with this hex on me And nowadays, I ain't feeling blessed homie Showing you all my hands Nothing on my person tell you ima bluff Even on my last breath Even when I'm out of luck Even when my dreams stall Even when my time is up Screaming.. Seen it all, done it all, rise and fall Ima still be here in the future (x3)
