I been thinking bout my options, I don't balance decisions
If they manage to listen then it's cool cos what I'm gettin
Is a feeling that it's heating up but I'm still here chilling
Cos a lotta them offended by the way that I been living
But I'm not tripping off it, only tripping off odometer that's broken Saying I'm not very close to where I'm going
Saying that I'm close to my potential, lying cos I'm knowing
That I got a lot to give long as I wanna keep it going
That's the goal, longevity
Been told that I'm a catch so many times
But I'm not tryna catch these women that are next to me
Fuck a talking stage, I don’t talk so don't be texting me
The whip gymnast pull up jumping out I got these cheques to see
It's obvious you do not know, no point tryna expose me
And I know the truth bout that shit I'm outside as it's unfolding
And my intuition told me it’s about to change again
Don't recommend wearing the cape for very long just hung it when
I tapped right into who needed saving
Found out if I didn't change in certain number days it would be me that would feel strange
I took enough losses from life it left me feeling bitter
Bu the times I got back up confirmation I'm not a quitter
Got extremely high standards, you don't meet them? then I'm quickly leaving
Scheming 24/7 cos I can't bare to breath without
Ticking shit off my list of things I'm tryna be achieving
If nothing else distracting me from grieving
There’s a reason for every movement and motion
Each word spoken each evening
Still rejecting offers off the strength of still believing
In a path that leads to freedom 'stead of being boxed and feeding
The greed of someone who really doesn’t need it
Every moment is fleeting
When the time's in alignment with what the dream is
But the speed is making it hard to see, even when I cleaned it
After everything, it's still slightly difficult, took a different approach
Didn't need a fork it took me dow two different roads
One of finding everything I thought I wanted
And one of missing everyone that got lost because their vision wasn't the strongest
But I'm still persevering
They be hearing shit about me I ain't even hear I guess that's mighty hearing
I be in the whip, slightly steerin', she be thinking that I'm drunk swervin'
Nah girl I'm driving like this on purpose
Shout out Andretti
Can't tell me shit I got these bands ready
100k before it even start, I got my hands heavy
Say it's taking off but still grounded
Work in silence still the loudest
Giving up because results not instant, still haven't allowed it
You living up to these low expectations and thats why I'm not astounded
If I was waiting to be carried, I’d be downing
You clowning someone who is more successful
No matter how many times life gets you down
Dragging someone else with you will never help you get back up
And I been fighting on my own so fuckin' long its no wonder the mind be tough
Keep the circle small the water's looking rough
For all these outsiders tryna dive in it
Cos this wave not giving up, yeah
Woah ohhhh
Yeah yeah
Yeah just tell me where it is and I be heading towards it
Yeah just tell me what it is and I be destined for it
The destination's in your head I been finding out
cCos the journey what this shit is really all about
Yeah just tell me where it is and I be heading towards it
Yeah just tell me what it is and I be destined for it
The destination's in your head I been finding out
Cos the journey what its really all about
