Balance and Composure

All these rappers complain about fake friends

But for real, that's a problem on my end

No time to try and defend

Don't pretend to extend

Won't try to make amends

This time its different

I'm holding my head real low and feeling like I'm creepin

I should be studying

But you should see this rut I'm in

I'm drinking lean, committing sins

Without a team, no excellence

No preference, irrelevant

Top that no elegance

I'm the best and you're so reverent

But these drinks I do depend on them

Drown my sorrows, bright tomorrows

Shit sun never came up

Hard to swallow, pills so crushed though

Darkness till the fame huh,

Order bottles, no moscato

Til then I remain nameless

Never thought this would be painless

I express myself so shameless

Niggas thought I dun came up

I'm feeling like King Tut

On top of the world but underground

But soon enough you're gonna name us

And I know I'm young enough, but too old to be new

So I'm trying to make a living off this by 22

 

 

Hook x2

Tell me I aint rappin like my life depending on it (x3)

Doing all these drugs, pour it up, smoke that chronic

 

I ain't make music you gon bang to

Or music you gon slang to

Wanna make a track with Mac Miller

Wanna make a joint like J Dilla

Wanna top billboards, MJ Thriller

Get a girl and then thrill her

See me I'm a dope dealer

Not the drugs, but on tracks and I'm still a

Real G when I'm spitting bars

Drive real fast when I'm in my cars

Don't crash now but I'm going hard

Don't derail or drop your guard

This beat so fire it's avant garde

Light the rag, it's a molotov

You know it's fire if I'm involved

If I'm not that shit dissolve

Rappers use beats like this to talk about their time

to talk about their shine

But shit it's all mine, at all times

These my rhymes and my story

What the fuck y'all ever do for me

So scary shit so gory

Shit just an allegory

Open up the lanes cus I'm just tryna get through

I ain't quitting I ain't splitting, I'ma stick it like glue

And I know I'm yound enough, but too old to be new

So I'm trying to make a living off this by 22
