Lyrics
Yo check it
Introduction, inviting attention
I'm about to break it down I ain't talking bout fractions
Breaking down concepts, not fractions
Talking 'bout tryna find the life satisfaction
Searching for life satisfaction
Living in a world that be packed with distractions
World full of distractions
Everybody looking for their passion
Everyone seeking their passion
Tryna make it happen
Pursuing dreams
But they drowning in the socials
Social media's impact on individuals
Suppressing every problem never opting to be vocal
Suppressing issues, lack of vocalization
Can't really escape even with escapism
Escapism doesn't provide real escape
A world full of color seen through a grey prism
Perceiving the world through a dull lens
I don't know if you can take it any longer always numbing
Struggling, numbing the mind
The mind in due time to the pressure you succumbing
Pressure leading to surrender
Maybe if you face yourself instead of always running
Facing oneself instead of running
You can truly start to love the person that you are becoming
Self-love through self-awareness
Back to the basics
Reiterating the call to go "Back to the Basics"
Back to the basics
-Recognize the shadow within and go face it
-Back to the basics
-Back to the basics
-Limiting beliefs gotta go in and replace it
-Back to the basics
-Back to the wall just embrace it
-Happiness within do not chase it
-Victim mentality you gotta go erase it
-I take 'em right back to the basics back to the basics
-On the road to success
Life's challenges, faith, and setbacks
When everything is falling apart into a mess
-You gotta have the faith that you'll continue to progress
-In this game of life which is really like a game of chess
-Be ready for the times you gotta sacrifice a piece
-For a chance to win it all or to fall in the streets
-Gotta stay on deck because life is really sweet
-When you recognize that every single setback is a treat
-People always said that you can run but you cannot hide
Confronting internal struggles
I tried
-Wide eyed
-When I found out they lied
-Ain't nowhere to run when the demon live within
-The journey has begun tell me when did it begin
Reflection on life's journey
Was it back when I was looking at the world like my opponent
-Or maybe couple years ago during college enrollment
-All I know is that I found that the only component
-Of living the good life is living in the present moment
-Back to the basics
Emphasizing the need to return to basics
Back to the basics
-Recognize the shadow within and go face it
-Back to the basics
-Back to the basics
-Limiting beliefs gotta go in and replace it
-Back to the basics
-Back to the wall just embrace it
-Happiness within do not chase it
-Victim mentality you gotta go erase it
-I take 'em right back to the basics back to the basics
Reiteration of taking things back to basics
Let these words be a refreshment
Life as an assessment, true investment
That every moment of your life is simply an assessment
-Testing
-If you realize that your best investment
-Is not up in the S&P 500 but it rest in
-The depths of your subconscious mind
Awareness of subconscious mind, self-realization
Feel like I was wasting time
-Seeking all the validation took a little while to find
-Till I started to look inward
-When my higher self has been heard
-Realized my potential is unlimited no longer hindered
-Ain't talking bout the Hindenburg
Personal growth and development
But I'm blowing up for sure
-Not feeling like an amateur
-As long as I can keep my word
-If you can stay unaffected
Remaining unaffected by doubts
By the doubts that are expected
-You could have it all just go against the path that is accepted
-Back to the basics
Returning to basics, breaking free from the matrix
I break out the matrix
-I break down the part of me claiming I cannot say this
Transforming, seeking a broader perspective
I change forms I shape shift
-I pray for a spaceship
-So I could see the bigger picture no contacts or Lasik
-I don't need no basis
Independence, creative expression, personal growth
To go and create this
-My flow is pervasive
-My growth is in phases
-I wrote down these phrases
-I broke down these cases
-I had to go take 'em right back to the basics
Final emphasis on going back to basics
