[Verse 1]
Weight of the world on my shoulders let me know when it's over//
It's like i just can't catch a break, let alone my composure//
no longer get that satisfaction from saying I told ya//
and nowadays I need a drink just to feel like I'm sober//
I'm overcompensating, guess i had to be trusted//
Thats why I spread myself thin like the last of the mustard//
and I can't catch up if I wanted to, mainly cause I'd never ask for help//
and I don't deserve it I promise you//
I should remember to forget things-//
and let things go, and maybe even miss things... more//
but lately I got so much on my mind that I don't even take stock//
So I don't know what's in store//
It's like it's easier to lose track//
Than focus on one love cuz when you I lose that//
You end up back at square one and I could prove that//
I been there, I seen it, and I ain't try'na move back naw//

[Chorus x2]
Lately I got so much on my mind, that I just wanna turn things down//
I swear that I could hear it all the time, it's like it's playing in the background//

[Verse 2]
Say what, I just say what's on my mind//
I don't do it when I speak but I say it when I rhyme//
And lately I ain't had the motivation nor the time//
To put my pen to the page, my passion to the stage//
So I bottle my emotions like they trapped inside a cage//
That's ironic cuz I'm known to empty bottles around my way, but ah//
All jokes aside// I'm just trying to plant seeds so my folks could thrive//
Yeah we just try'na let it breath and keep hope alive//
But still they looking at us homie like they so surprised (It's on us)//
Yeah I'm just try'na lift my people up//
I know I got a lot of mouth and I don't keep it shut//
I know I got a lot of clout but if I keep up//
I prolly end up losing sleep and trust me I don't sleep enough already//
And I'm not Trumastr no lie//
Ain't got the social skills and I ain't got the bow tie//
I did it my way that's how I live my whole life
Ain't saying its the best way but fuck it I could get by//
But still got problems of my own
While I try to fix the problems of the world with just my phone//
And the words that I select to shift the views and switch the tone
I want folks to feel uncomfortable even when they at home (Real talk)//
And last week they called us savages//
It fucked me up cuz even I forget how bad it is//
And ain't a way to change the shit with Instagrams and statuses
No retweets could dismantle the whole establishment nah//
But still you know what they say//
Never put off 'til tomorrow what we could handle today//
And it ain't selfish if you take care of yo self on the way//
In fact some body told me that was revolution-e-ray//
So drink water//
that's not a bar, I just.. don't want you dehydrated//
It happens to us often//
I'm lost inside my thoughts I'm Nosferatu in that coffin//
Feeling dead to the world I swear that living is exhausting//
And this is for all the people proud to kick it on they porches//
Not ashamed to be who they is even in front they bosses//
You think you passing time, but I promise y'all passing torches-//
and knowledge down to the children//
Y'all should just feel exalted right now//
And bad news'll make your heart drop//
Don't let em put you in that box until your heart stop//
Don't let em put you in that box until your last breath-//
Done spoke the last truth that you done witness as you pass death, yeah//
But let 'em say what they will//
They try to tell us what's attractive, I don't see the appeal//
They try to tell me I'm reactive when i say what I feel//
I guess they'll need to figure how they could deal, cuz I just feel stressed//

[Chorus]
