The Jesters Interlude

See I ain't tryna shine too bright just right You could call me Shikamaru when I come thru I pull up to the fight nah I ain't on the frontlines From the shadows to your minds See I ain't tryna shine too bright just right You could call me Shikamaru when I come thru I pull up to the fight nah I ain't on the frontlines From the shadows to your minds I used to want fame I used to want cash Used to want to be a star But then I found pain When I got that bag See it came with scars I took it too far While chasing that bar I downed all the bottles then got in the car Saw the bright lights it looked so bizarre Then Then I snapped back to my senses Lowered all my defences Looked into the mirror and saw a man so helpless Defenceless Told myself he needs change Cause the same things that bring pain Don't go away on another day So maybe this time I look the other way When she back that ass up slap the other cheek So peak Power of the mind so unique now Imma just take the backseat See I ain't tryna shine too bright just right You could call me Shikamaru when I come thru I pull up to the fight nah I ain't on the frontlines From the shadows to your minds See I ain't tryna shine too bright just right You could call me Shikamaru when I come thru I pull up to the fight nah I ain't on the frontlines From the shadows to your minds Nowadays everything about views If you ain't get likes Then you ain't that good If you fuckin' with my music Then I'm fuckin' with you too But something is in the way And it's fuckin' with my mood Don't like how we treat celebrities We put them on a pedestal Outside their expertise And when you find out they ain't perfect Another casualty I plan to stick around But why remember me I barely know shit about politics But my flows are quick and my rhymes are sick And I ain't well versed in many current affairs But I see bars in my mind and I can write with a flair Shouldn't give advice on relationships But I look good on a screen my personality lit And if you still haven't really got my drift I'm just an entertainer man stop deepin' this shit Cause no one man should have all that power F*ck I agree I don't want that either I'm just an artist my opinion doesn't matter I mean See I ain't tryna shine too bright just right You could call me Shikamaru when I come thru I pull up to the fight nah I ain't on the frontlines From the shadows to your minds See I ain't tryna shine too bright just right You could call me Shikamaru when I come thru I pull up to the fight nah I ain't on the frontlines From the shadows to your minds
