Hear Me

My mama used to read me prayers before I slept at night Then prayed again in the morning that God would get me right At the same time, I thought a prayer could solve a messy life Until I found that words alone can't help you win the fight This signified growth and a new state of mind The principle of you getting yours and imma get mine Minefields as I'm stepping through time Anticipation and fear These emotions combine Ball up And hit me straight in my spine I'm falling In and out confusion You know life is an illusion but Somehow some way you gotta make ya contribution I feel electrocution When I think of these rhyme schemes I aint a Watts kid But the pen filled with lightening Headphones plugged in Frequently typing Trynna reach goal That can seem so unlikely But I'm watching how I fit Like a Melrose hypebeast Last puzzle piece How I fit so nicely I gotta do me Do I care if you like me? I'm heatin' up But my hearts still icy I'm heatin' up my hearts still icy Sometimes I wonder if they ever hear me Y'all don't see it how I see it clearly Things don't always look how they appearing Fake smile Guess that I'm veneering I'm either wondering or wandering Daily I be pondering If the music I keep conjuring Is time I keep on squandering Spoke to God And said this verse is like an offering He told me if I honor him Then I will keep on prospering At the age where life can look so imposing Disposing of the past is like a door that ain't closing Probably like the beat but please hear my words closely Trynna move remotely is part of what really broke me It's hard for me to trust when y'all be shadier than Oakley But I ain't the type To walk around like people owe me You really didn't know me And that's just fine But then you reapproach a nigga With them dumb ass lines Time is precious Almost as much as money F*ck them Dark Days I'll come out when its sunny Niggas turned into bitches And I find it very funny Now they watching all my moves Instead of out gettin money Yeah Yeah I'm shinin' yeah I'm glistening They feeling all the viciousness I'm hit with new predicaments To you it's not significant We just see it different And everything I'm feeling my nigga I'm fuckin sick of it So I called into the distantness Where there is no witnesses Yeah I scream into the void kinda ignorant Cuz yelling at my problems isn't fixing them I'm trippin man Sometimes I wonder if they ever hear me Y'all don't see it how I see it clearly Things don't always look how they appearing Fake smile Guess that I'm veneering
