Lyrics
Wishin', sittin' wishin' things'd be different
Expressing a desire for change and different circumstances.
In the kitchen, cookin' up they lies they've been livin'
People are deceitful, cooking up lies in the kitchen of life.
I had a vision, led me down the line in the distance
Refers to having a vision that guides the person along a path in the distance.
Some decisions, never cross our mind 'til we miss it
Some decisions become apparent only after they are missed or neglected.
When the sun up, puttin' in the time 'til I make it
Working hard from sunrise, investing time to achieve goals.
In the basement, countin' notes and lines that I'm makin'
Engaged in productive work in the basement, counting progress.
I'm on the come up, haters gonna smile and fake it
Despite facing adversity, the person is on the rise, acknowledging fake smiles from haters.
I see them fakin', claim they love but lie with their faces, come on
Observing others pretending to love while lying with their expressions.
Passion, traded in for watching the news
Choosing passive consumption of news over pursuing one's passions.
Action, replaced with what they find on YouTube
Action is replaced by passive consumption of content found on YouTube.
We talking options, keep an eye on stocks when they move
Considering various options and monitoring stock movements.
Applying caution, when I talk about what I do
Exercising caution when discussing personal actions and decisions.
I had a problem, too much drinking Proper and Juul
Struggling with excessive drinking and nicotine use (Proper and Juul).
I seen a doctor, wrote a 'script and said to take two
Seeking professional help for personal issues and receiving medication.
I never copped 'em, found my own cure and I knew
Choosing to find a personal solution rather than relying on prescribed medication.
I'd never prosper, living like the rest of us
Refusing to conform to a lifestyle that doesn't lead to success.
Wishin', sittin' wishin' things'd be different
Reiteration of the desire for a different reality.
In the kitchen, cookin' up they lies they've been livin'
Repetition of the idea that people are living deceptive lives.
I had a vision, led me down the line in the distance
Reiterating the vision that guides the person toward their goals.
Some decisions, never cross our mind 'til we miss it
Highlighting the realization of missed decisions in hindsight.
When the sun up, puttin' in the time 'til I make it
Continuing to work hard and invest time to achieve success.
In the basement, countin' notes and lines as I'm playin'
Engaged in creative work, counting progress and playing with lines (lyrics).
Yeah I've been patient, every day I'm hopin' and prayin'
Expressing patience and hope, anticipating recognition by the summer.
That by the summer, hear my rhymes on some of your playlists, I'm on
Aspiring to have one's music included in playlists by the summer.
Third eye dudes think they seeing it all
Critical perspective on individuals who claim to have superior insight (third eye).
I'd rather two open wide over three in the dark
Preference for clarity (two open eyes) over ambiguity (three in the dark).
I took a long drive south and I did it alone
Reflecting on a solo journey to gain a broader perspective on life.
And got a bird eye view of what to do when it's wrong
Gaining insights on how to navigate challenges when things go wrong.
I wanna play back, days that, I never get to take back
Expressing a desire to relive moments that cannot be undone.
Hate that, can't change that, pray I never lay flat
Regretting irreversible actions but hoping to avoid a negative outcome.
And people online over time gotta face facts,
Acknowledging the inevitability of facing facts over time, especially online.
Lot of bad guys doing crime get no payback
Noting the lack of consequences for many wrongdoers in the world.
Wishin', sittin' wishin' things'd be different
Reiteration of the desire for a different reality.
In the kitchen, cookin' up they lies they've been livin'
Repetition of the idea that people are living deceptive lives.
I had a vision, led me down the line in the distance
Reiterating the vision that guides the person toward their goals.
Some decisions, never cross our mind 'til we miss it
Highlighting the realization of missed decisions in hindsight.
When the sun up, puttin' in the time 'til i make it
Continuing to work hard and invest time to achieve success.
In the basement, countin' notes and lines that I'm makin'
Engaged in creative work, counting progress and playing with lines (lyrics).
I'm on the come up, haters gonna smile and fake it
Despite facing adversity, the person is on the rise, acknowledging fake smiles from haters.
I see them fakin', claim they love but lie with their faces, I'm gone
Observing others pretending to love while lying with their expressions.
