As It Seems (feat. Temper Beats)

I done seen great days played out on a tv screen Come to find the cuts they gotta hide inside behind the scenes Nothing is as it seems (One more time for me) Nothing is as it seems Yeah We tryna live our lives through these Kodak moments But often find ourselves when we cold or at our lowest Never take no pictures, don't want nobody to notice And wonder why the way we see ourselves feel outta focus You not just the highs or the lows, no Not just surrounded or alone Or in and out yo zone If that's all you truly had, man life is short Embrace what's in between and show love to all your folk! Cause what else truly matter more than finding joy and spreading it? How can I be happy if my people don't reap the benefits? The right people goin help you when you bout to reach your precipice And when we counting stacks we get to sit back and reminisce bout all these times not having it Enjoying the lavishes that come with all the statuses Imitating greatness, in our hand the fishbowl glasses is Six shots of Lobos each, we bout to be some savages Facing all the liquor how I face most my challenges As a kid I was always told that I was talented As I got older I was told to be sum average They wrote out a plan for me and mad that I ain't having it Said I could be anything and snatched it when I'm grabbin it You'd be mad too if you was promised the world and the first thing they do is bury you Chop you at yo knees, leave you weak And then complain they gotta strain they obliques tryna carry you Reminding me that Nothing is as it seems (One more time) Nothing is as it seems (But I've seen) I done seen great days played out on a TV screen Come to find the cuts they gotta hide inside behind the scenes Nothing is as it seems (One more time) Nothing is as it seems
