Rotten Core! (feat. Kemist)

Confederate flags standing tall in my neighborhood I never saw the hood, but I knew how to get mine Situations on replay, clouding my young mind Hard to interpret the racist jabs at my sunshine Still life was simple Itching hard for a rewind Hardest decision was picking Crayola Crayons Followed the rules, I only shot from the foul line Timid and sweet, I turned a grape to some fine wine It's my time Got the clarity I needed I soon began to blossom Set my story like a thesis Living with my brother, situations turned facetious But I had to untie my inhibitions like a sneaker A natural born leader Ain't happen to know it yet I used to hold it all, now I'm pushing the chest press Felt like I would fall, till I leveled them high steps The Devil like monopoly, he waiting to collect But I will pass Go They hoping I won't have a chance Want me to sleep on the floor The hate be feeling so romantic Watching me like they Joe And so I keep on climbing high, I'm passing all the plateaus My spidey sense is telling me, these people like Jameson They need someone they can blame Don't want no good Samaritan I just try to clean my name Keep it clear like it's Claritin Now Im feeling arrogant I just need to keep my prayers up and talk to my therapist I'm not a kid anymore Stumbled my way through the dark Searching for love in a loveless place Don't think I can give anymore Breaking in thousands of pieces Will I make it on my own? I'm rotting right down to the core Rotting right down to the Core, yeah yeah Man, Q said rotten to the core now And growing up my confidence was torn down But they can never take away the source crown Love to hear the music, ain't it soothing when it's your sound That mean the way you are is Your decision Taking back my power became my religion Knowing that they feel me Everytime they listen Is the greatest feeling And it's really got me on a mission I'm doing yoga now, I'm too efficient No more soda, this Kombucha hitting They think I'm bougie, I'm just moving different Doing something right, cause though they judge me They can't lose their interest I was never one to fake or quit Take your pick, it's either me or me that you gon get Truth emits from every syllable is ever spit Though no longer a kid, I am as childish as I've ever been Cause life is just a game and I'm gon play it like it's never been My advice, don't take it to serious, it's never been Grace is what you call it when no matter what you better than Grandma hit my phone to reinsure I never let em in Referring to the haters and the leeches The moves I make in silence always seem to leave em speechless And currently I'm swimming in the deep end With sharks all around me, but I'm chilling like it's peaches I'm not a kid anymore Stumbled my way through the dark Searching for love in a loveless place Don't think I can give anymore Breaking in thousands of pieces Will I make it on my own? I'm rotting right down to the core Rotting right down to the Core But I'm not a kid anymore Stumbled my way through the dark Searching for love in a loveless place Don't think I can give anymore Breaking in thousands of pieces Will I make it on my own? I'm rotting right down to the core Rotting right down to the Core, yeah yeah
