Aiden Goldsmith - My Own Lyrics

(Applause?)
Back on my own type of flow, yeah
Back in a soundscape I know, yeah
Back on my business, trying to give, like, over a hundred percent
Laughing in everyone's face when they say I can't, but promise I'm gon' make it big
I knew some people that's shrouded in fake, I can't let em drip on my clothes
I knew some folks, who's spinning way out of control, I thought that I told
So many people that this little path that you're taking can lead you to plenty destruction
Ignore my words, head in a blur, they never go faster than passing construction
You can get a lot of cheese in this rat race,
But you might get killed going dat way
And I never liked to party like the trap way
But it's too many jailed for an ashtray
Too many failed, crime at an all time high
And the dumb don't learn, they just get by
Too many bailed, can't drive no drive-by
Cause the smart don't shoot, they just froze by
The feeling they get when they aiming the barrel
And squeezing the trigger, blood on the apparel
Their mamas just staring at obituaries
And reminisce on the times they were at home
The buried processions and feeling no blessings
And carrying weight of the sin and the stressing
And realize potential you had to be next up
Was gone the very minute you domed
Another young rapper cause what if his fans
Find out the reason you stay on the lamb?
And make it their mission to get you next,
In a cutthroat game, they don't spare necks
Can't fantasize about getting big checks
When your balance thrown off, feeling no respect
In a game prolonged by "no regrets" mentality
Kev' vest can't protect fatality
Back on my own type of flow, yeah
Back in a soundscape I know, yeah
Back on my business, trying to give, like, over a hundred percent
Laughing in everyone's face when they say I can't, but promise I'm gon' make it big
I knew some people that's shrouded in fake, I can't let em drip on my clothes
I knew some folks, who's spinning way out of control, I thought that I told
So many people that this little path that you're taking can lead you to plenty destruction
Ignore my words, head in a blur, they never go faster than passing construction
Once you get in, now you gotta
Live it, it's the only option
Conform or die
Would you kill for your life?
Once you get in, now you gotta
Live it, it's the only option
Conform or die
Would you kill for your life?
Yeah, I really don't know
It's easy to look at some seeds
That's never been watered before
And planted in cold
And wonder why they never grow
And also the pot that they're put in is covered in mystery,
History writing the show
You never knew that, of course
I thought that I told- I know that I told you before!
Tons of kids spraying clips
Taking trips to the trap on the highway
And that ain't called living the right way
But what do you do when the only
Thing that you've ever been showed
Leads down that road,
With lean on the road,
With beef on the road?
Opps corpses rolled into a Backwoods!
Back on my own type of flow, yeah
Back in a soundscape I know, yeah
Back on my business, trying to give, like, over a hundred percent
Laughing in everyone's face when they say I can't, but promise I'm gon' make it big
I knew some people that's shrouded in fake, I can't let em drip on my clothes
I knew some folks, who's spinning way out of control, I thought that I told
So many people that this little path that you're taking can lead you to plenty destruction
Ignore my words, head in a blur, they never go faster than passing construction
(Applause)
