Figure Out (feat. Marcus Lee)

Let me breathe now Never understood but I'm here now Got a second try gotta figure out I ain't letting up I will make it out Future looking hazy teeter totter on the fence I've been overthinking and my mind is on defense Life is complicated but one thing I am convinced There's something out there for me cause I'm never giving in I work hard But I work smart Back in grade school I was book smart Gave it all up for a quick start Said I'd go back I couldn't part Ways with the way I was living Money on mind I was driven Bought an o z I was smitten Didn't take long I was slipping Got my first job at 15 Had a little money Not a lot of dreams Momma always said stay away from the fiends Didn't take long I would burst at the seams Worst than the fiends Never chasing a dream Only 18 Things that I seen I was in disbelief I could never be free Give me pills Give me weed Give me amphetamines Oxy was my oxygen Fighting with my pops again Snorting smoking hydrogen Arrested spent the night again Locked up in a cell again Demons I'm in hell again Glad I found a friend again Whoda known where I'd a been Let me breathe now Never understood but I'm here now Got a second try gotta figure out I ain't letting up I will make it out Let me breathe now People in my corner wanna see now Where we going next we gonna figure out Nothing to complex we gonna make it out I just moved back into my house, couple days ago Spent a night in jail, thinking 'how the hell my days' this low?' Bouta be pushing 31, man this ain't it, bro I go back to the mirror, like my nigga why you caged in though And I do it to myself man Spent a long time losing I ain't tryna get into it Been abusing myself man Standing in front of judge With my head down Excusing myself man Like I'm losing myself ma'am But I'm just another number to her Deluding myself into thinking/ If keep on drinking that I will forget it at all All the while staying still If I keep it real, then I have been ready to fall Waiting waiting waiting waiting If I stay sedated I cannot be great No, I can't be the greatest I cannot survive If stay in hiatus Because I'm not breathing My man's, I'm deflated I'm late again Late registration I'm playing coy Plagued with frustration to stay in joy Not in my career so I ain't employed She done with excuses 'like save it, boy' I'm done with excuses, myself Tryna focus on just moving myself For too long, I been stagnant Even moving backwards Only way to win is to lose to self Let me breathe now Never understood but I'm here now Got a second try gotta figure out I ain't letting up I will make it out Let me breathe now People in my corner wanna see now Where we going next we gonna figure out Nothing to complex we gonna make it out I got distractions more than actions And every time I take a step I'm taking fifty backwards And I'm just trying to find my pep And some greener pastures I do some things I do regret it's time I gotta factor I gotta get out on the road I'm reaching 29 and the times are getting old I never told soul I kept on the low I guess I'm insecure but now I'm vulnerable I'm just trying to see globe I've been leaning on my hope I've been praying to the Most I've been doubting that's fosho Gotta get it for my folks Raise your glasses for a toast When we winning in God we boast We didn't do this on our own No And please continue underestimating And I'll continue working while I'm working on my patience The journey long I've been to hell and back I can take it Success ain't measured it's what you make it just don't be complacent Let me breathe now Never understood but I'm here now Got a second try gotta figure out I ain't letting up I will make it out Let me breathe now People in my corner wanna see now Where we going next we gonna figure out Nothing to complex we gonna make it out
