BRAiN

No auto tune, but you can feel the “Pain”.
It all comes spilling out like I hit a vein.
What up lil’ Bruh?
What up SlumVille?
I hope you know that y’all the reason I have fun still.

That ain’t how it works.
That ain’t that how it goes.
And I been getting high just to balance out the lows.

I never share my thoughts,
This is all a nigga knows.
And every time I try, it opens up my eyes.
These verses are a chance to be remembered and reprised.
And I would be performing this as long as I’m alive ,
So every word I utter will be mine.

And I’ma keep it honest.
I’m so tired of being subtle.
It’s just me, Forty, O, and Nek standing in a huddle.
Staring at the members of my team.
Who get questioned about they profit from this million dollar scheme.
Just know that am in debt for you defending all our dreams.
I hope you tell your families this shit ain’t what it seems.
But y’all the reason for a lot of my devotion.
You know I spend money because spending time is hopeless.
And know I pop bottles ‘cuz I bottle my emotions.
At least I put it all in the open.

Don’t believe the lies.
Look me in my eyes.
Please don’t be scared of me.

Fuck all y’all.
We ignore feelings here.
Premature millionaires.
Welcome to my realest year.

things are just surreal at home
People think I’ve changed just because my appeal has grown
And now security follow me everywhere so I never actually am alone, I just always feel alone.
I think I’m scared of what the future holds.
I was wishing for some things and now am used to those.
Every girl I meet thinks I’m fucking groupie hoes.
The honesty of my music has left me too exposed.
All my old friends think I got a new crowd.
And people seem to notice every time I do smile.
I guess that mean they come few and far between.
Even though am living out what you would call the dream.
Yeah.
And my uncle ain’t even messaging me.
And him missing in my life is kind of messing with me.
I hope this isn’t one of those forever things.
It’s funny how money can change everything.

I swear I’ll know your face in the crowd
And I’ll hear your voice so loud, when you’re whispering

We are swimming with the snakes at the bottom of a well
So silent and peaceful in this darkness where we fell
But we are not snakes and, whats more, we never will be
And if we stay swimming here forever we will never be free

Open your eyes boy I think we are saved
Lets take a walk on the bridge right over this mess
Don’t need to tell me a thing, we already confessed
I raise my voice to the air and we are blessed

Its hard to give, its hard to get
Buy everybody needs a little forgiveness.

If we could build a ladder that tall to come up and see you, we would, ‘cause we out here. And we miss you.

You say you want to kill yourself,
It might make it just a little bit easier
You think you’re the only one who hurts?
Try looking just a little bit harder.
I don’t know why you’re holding on
To the damage that’s been done

‘Cause you’ve got me wrapped up in your illusion,
I keep on trying to change your conclusion,
But you’ve got me wrapped up in your illusion,
I keep on trying to clear the confusion
I keep on dying ‘cause you’re busy wasting life.

Don’t disguise your emptiness
By placing blame on me and everyone else,
Protected by your safety nets
But you can’t put the heart of your fears at rest
All I feel is deep regret for what you have become

I bring no consolation for you and your pain
No one else can change your fate
You’ll have to do it for yourself
