[Intro Simian] Oh my God Are you really feel again dude? Really? How many times do I gotta drill this into your fucking skull? Ah, okay [Verse 1 Simian] This is neither the angel or the devil on your shoulder or head, but the voice that gets louder the older you get I dont know why you keep doing this I mean you can keep putting out beats and releases, pleading Please I need this to sustain me When its nothing but draining Thats like, 1, 2 months of high, tops Youd rather crest on that wave and youve forgotten When you speak like a flood that will never recede The pipe dreams only lead to the gutter, brother, there are other options to consider Ones that will take you farther than sewage water Like, I dont know, a typical ninetofive Eat, fuck, shit, piss, buy your time until you die, etcetera See the fact of it is, you need me to drive you, you just dont wanna admit it But you know it, think about it, what makes you constantly seek council from discouragement, right? I mean, I know you vibe with me I mean, why else the fuck would you confide in me? Im a pain in the arse but Im also your harshest critic You know youve made it when youve silenced me [Verse 2 Curtismith] Could have, lost touched with the real feelings How do people even deal with it? Can you show me who the real villain Looking in the mirror, asking if Im being real with it Yeah, hey, Ive been hard on my grind Using my touch and investing my time You should do you cause Im trying to do mine And Im here and they gossip, they try to deny talking shit from behind You see their faking from deep in their eyes I see the disguise I feel the resistance is keeping inspired Im keeping my mission from reaching their knowledge So I keep it one hundred I push the pedal to the floor with the car running I be kicking down the doors when they starshutting Paranoia getting stronger, you start frontin Know Imma do me till the day I die I need a couple more years to go and spend my life I gotta change some views, aint gonna waste my time I got a hundred other things to do to make shit right While they criticize you wont realize I have the right intentions, yet Im feeling fine, so I synchronize all my dreams with that To make the money, but keep the passion [Verse 3 Simian] Okay okay, I get that You got the energy, the words, the lyrics, fine You got the resources, the selfhelp lived The best thing in hell then shit sure Sad, this is capitalist, they say Ugh, but like Man does not live on passion alone, but when you get to that stage you be castin that stone So you gotta let me know dude Like, what do you fight for? Who do you rap for? What do you live for? A ship without an anchor is just wreckage waiting for an excuse to break, and buddy, looks like youre in deep water, keep swimming [Verse 4 Curtismith] Yet Im in here with the liquor Took another swig just to make me think clearer I was in a ditch like this so Im in fear of falling close to the same tree Lord made me a stronger man, then Id be alone I put my heart in this, now you hear a song I make art with this, I dont need a coach Im an arsonist with my speech enclosed in emotions Spoken word is to the beat Im dotting all my is and Im crossing all the ts Believe Im gonna be whatever Im gonna read But Ive been going on for miles, trying to sow all of my seeds Yeah, showing a bit of me Exposing all the work into my heart and my beliefs Im hoping that my vision takes me farther than the sheep Cause Im trying to be a shepherd, giving hope to all the weak Meet me when Im gone, feel me in this song See me through my passion, Im balancing right and wrong Its tragic but all the fabric in magic is hella fake But Im running from my dreams How long is it gonna take Yeah, I put the flowin on a break Make something out of nothing if nothing is what you waste I think about a coffin and having dope as a grave Man Im trying to find a balance to manage the way Im paced I race against myself and its myself only I do this for my pops and all my dead homies I pray that when I drop, I have stopped them phonies selling drugs, being thugs, but the conflicts growing Man, I hope I got time for that You can spend a lot of time but cant buy it back So I ride the track like theres no tomorrow Let me spit my game and let these rappers borrow
