Lyrics
Picture this
Imagining a situation
I’m elevating, still going round in circles
Progressing but feeling stuck in a repetitive cycle
These scars don’t heal with these tinted windows part of the why I’m hurting
Emotional pain remains despite attempts to hide it (metaphorically represented by tinted windows)
Fakest friends, they will not stop till they see a little kid get packed
False friends causing harm until they witness someone vulnerable suffer
I can’t trust no soul when I’m singing for the pros cause when it all ends it’s curtains
Lack of trust in anyone while pursuing success, aware that everything eventually ends
Feelings, man I can’t feel it, living inside these meetings
Numbness to emotions due to a lifestyle consumed by obligations and meetings
And loyalty’s real to the boy so tell me if you won’t ride then leave it
Emphasis on loyalty; questioning commitment from others
People lie and the evil lurking, tell me what’s fake or not
Difficulty in distinguishing truth from falsehood with deceit prevalent
Look, I don’t wanna get laid in box
Not willing to end up confined or limited
You don’t know me better repay them costs
Expecting reimbursement for any investment or effort
On the South-Side never know when it’s time to run
Living in a place where danger is prevalent
Where your heart gets dark and you lose your path cause anything crime get done
Describing a harsh environment where crime is rampant and morality fades
Look, my cake full of smallest pieces but I’ll breaking mine
Struggling with personal issues despite outward success
And I’m signing deals, there’s hope for the future
Optimism about future prospects despite challenges
Cannot be wasting time
Valuing time and avoiding wastage
I get hate from a distance, mandem try me
Receiving negativity from a distance, facing challenges from peers
Man I’m tryna make this work
Striving to make things succeed despite difficulties
Back then I was young and I had no fear
Reflecting on a past fearless but reckless self
I was steady tryna play with dirt
Past tendencies to engage in risky behavior
Trust me, man I never had no heart like any 16 get murked
Previously lacking empathy or emotions, capable of causing harm
Now it’s all about music, rap and singles any 16 get turnt
Now focused on music, transforming past negative energy into positive creativity
Can you hold it out for the moment now?
Asking for patience in a difficult situation
They just tryna get me broken down
Feeling targeted and under pressure
In the danger-zone where there’s broken bounds
Being in a hazardous and boundaryless situation
Stanzas got the potent sounds
Music's verses carry strong emotional weight
Back then they didn’t wanna see me win
Past lack of support turning into recognition of personal victories
I admit I have wins and losses
Admitting both successes and failures
All eyes on me where there weren’t in the different days where a kid had nothing
Attention received now was absent when struggling previously
In a field of battles, ready to escape this place
Ready to leave a difficult situation or environment
I think God put a curse on me but it’s cool cause my heart wasn’t made to break
Acceptance of challenges as part of life, resilient in the face of adversity
Why the world so cold and the people’s hate you, man I gotta deal with pain
Questioning the world's cruelty and dealing with personal suffering
They just looking for ps and some of my relevance, man it don’t feel the same
Feeling a shift in how others perceive and treat the speaker
And they say that I’m changing, smiles that I’m faking, where do you hear this from?
Responding to baseless accusations of changing demeanor or personality
Got the purest heart with the darkest mind and you can hear this on songs
Having a pure heart despite inner struggles reflected in music
Fakest people tryna pretend it don’t matter if a kid still hurt
Noting the insincerity of some people despite personal pain
And I’m baring in mind that I came here alone, that’s how I’m gonna leave this Earth.
Understanding life's solitary nature, anticipating departing as arrived
