[Verse 1]
Hello angles I hear you
I remember back in the day I used to fear you
Never saw numbers
But my intuition was expanding my logic
Helping get through the toxic
Days
Now all that shit tends to be a haze
But it raised my consciousness
Realizing this reality is bottomless
More spiritually inclined than the general populous
My mental design
Was divine
But the rest of me declined
Til I defined
My purpose
Dove beneath the surface
Spirituality doesn’t need a purchase
Which was good
Because I didn’t have money
It was funny we was in the hood mentality
Like screaming and grey morality
Barely had any food except for on the first
But what was worse is that he ate it all
Got high and went on binges
Like whoever chose this life had some glitches
But best wishes when the past bites you in the ass
But fuck it
Imma do me
I don’t have kids so I can smoke a tree and binge
But I don’t even want to
I’m already high on life
And I’m full on accomplishment
I’m doing something significant
I turn on my equipment and spit out something that you might feel indifferent
Because you have a resistance to look at the rhymes and take the time to breakdown what I said
Fuck it man this is for me when i couldn’t get out of bed
When I couldn’t get those thoughts out of my head
Positivity is what I’m trying to spread
But I have to let you know it’s okay to talk about the dark days
Raise awareness
Because in all fairness
The ones who need it most don’t have it
So the mic I grab it
[Verse 2 ]
I aim to break generational habits
Giving the white rabbit a carrot
Reading from my tarot deck
I’m working for a future check
I stay in check
But I’m sticking out my neck
Could destroy my career in a sec
But it’s only up from here
I have nothing to fear
But imma keep it clear
I’m spitting truth into your ear
It’s up to you to hear
My purpose seems worthless
To many on the surface
But you can’t spread good without stating the bad
It just so happens with the past i had
The words come easy
I guess you can call me greedy for expressing myself
But there’s a reason I don’t remember being 12
Why it all blends
I spend so many lines
Speaking about my past
Because I bet half of you haven’t healed from your cast
That you put yourself in
From all the sins that got under your skin
I know before I started writing my patients got thin
Like when am I gonna win
Well I waited
And I debated
Now I’m acquainted with rap
The love will start falling into my lap
A future that I make money while I nap
I love the process
Everyday making progress
I address the mess and stress less
I passed the test of life
I was deprived of simple rights
Suppressed by my mom
But I stayed calm
Couldn’t have an opinion
If it put her in a position of wrong
So I saved those thoughts for a song
I hope everyone else can rap along
If you dealing with this shit now
Stay strong
It gets better
You can also write a letter
And burn it
Your future is up to you and how you turn it
