lyrics
I'm trying to / get a / handle / on the / stories in my mind (yeah)
Gotta to / get un-/ tangled / from the / worries / I design
Jealousy testing my vanity /
Opinions creating insanity /
Privilege dangling fantasies /
Gotta stay grounded
And focused on balancing
Ten percent of me / wrecks the best of me, steadily, recipe / for incredible dissonance, next to me // my fears / are festering excellence, never quite doing enough, not impressing them // it's a medicine empty of everything / sentiment / settling down to the bottom like sediment / evident / hindsight / check my twenties for evidence // searching for validation in preeminence, / didn't matter where effort went / as long as I'm climbing the ladder then / I felt I was shiny and elegant / don't want to fall for that spell again / Cinderella fella / repping an ego like elephant, simple and selfish embellishment / I'm spreading these wings / admit no impediment
It takes a village to raise children / shift in mindset, distilling // they try to poison any visionary voice / just to keep the same the rhythm, boy / keep marching // who's to say who's in charge? / they can't be charged // silly me / accusing you of villainy / I know that ain't your official cup of tea / bite me / stop telling me how my life be / what's in reach and what's not for me / that's first degree / blasphemy / here's my plan, no one clap for me / the raddest action is a masterpiece: / when someone's kind and doesn't have to be / no strings attached, no one asked to see / that's for me /
