Disguise
Unveiling the Veil: Abstract Reflections on Life's Struggles
Lyrics
Times changed and I had to get away
Expressing a need for change and distance from current circumstances.
You saw my face and you didn't know what to do
Others' confusion or inability to react upon seeing the speaker's face.
I made all these tracks and there's still alot to say
Having created many musical tracks but still having much to express.
I made all these statements so there's still alot to prove
Having made bold statements and the desire to prove oneself further.
Advice to niggas was always just to keep out of my way
Offering advice for others to stay out of the speaker's way.
Advice to niggas was always just to never speak on my name
Advising others not to speak negatively about the speaker.
May show my happiness in these silver and gold chains
Displaying happiness through material possessions, specifically silver and gold chains.
But it's consciousness, and nothing can really disguise the pain
Despite outward appearances, the speaker is carrying inner pain that cannot be hidden.
Disguise the pain
Reiterating the theme of concealing emotional distress.
And it's obvious, my motive is just to be better

You always hide from the truth

You always put on a mask, like what's that gonna do

You hide your smile in the pain and always think that your wrong

You can't decide your emotion in your headphones and a song

People say I don't understand life
Addressing criticism that the speaker doesn't comprehend life.
The choices that I'm making, I hope I end up all alright

The things that have happened also took me by surprise

I see the shadows of my past walk with me
Seeing remnants of past experiences influencing the present.
Darkness, I was lost in and that Irie wrong feeling
Recalling a period of darkness and a wrong feeling (irie) that was ignored.
That something's gonna happen but I usually ignored it
Noticing the consequences of ignoring intuition and premonitions.
Now see where we at, I lost a team member

We believed it would never, and now I miss brother
