Call Me Ace - Gray Skies 2 Lyrics

What was time anyway?
I never had control over the to-do list I owned
Just tryna create a path to help me navigate unknowns
But - instead I procrastinate when I'm alone
Too much frustration building inside forced to stay inside
Not the way I was raised, the type to run away
Spending many nights and days getting' charged up
Without anybody's say, but
The silver lining's that I'm paid while I'm thousand miles away
From my family wondering if they'll be safe
It's weird slavin' hard for the freedom to choose
Cnd then what's left when there's no choice at all
It was all a façade
Makes me wonder why I was even workin' that hard
Who's success am I chasin' if it wasn't for God
I fight bein' cynical all while beatin' the odds
Cll while tellin' them don't be starstruck
I'm just human

I'm thankful for the day should be feelin' this way
But it's just another day how I'm feelin' today
I'm lookin' high up with glazed eyes
Tryna fly steady through these gray skies
I know that I'm thankful for the day should be feelin' this way
But it's just another day how I'm feelin' today
I'm lookin' high up with glazed eyes
Tryna fly steady through these gray skies

I mistake resting for being idle
The fear of losing my calling - that's why I grind bro
Lift the foot off the gas but who gon' drive tho?
One man band scaling plans with no handouts
C vision of what could be guess I'm growin' on demand now
Not millions but it's hundreds more like thousands that's my fans now
Data says it's promising, requests keep on fallin' in
Cskin' for a download on my work while I'm still installin' it
They read my business like The Guardian
To try to wear the same shoes I made to guard me in
I'm like "huh?"
Keep advancing for what?
Well I don't like to look back to see how far we is
We might get complacent then stop and not restart again
Not the type to call it quits but I have thought of it
I can't lie to ya
I figured out the art to how to see right thru ya
But mama used to tell me don't let yo mind fool ya, nah

I'm thankful for the day should be feelin' this way
But it's just another day how I'm feelin' today
I'm lookin' high up with glazed eyes
Tryna fly steady through these gray skies
I know that I'm thankful for the day should be feelin' this way
But it's just another day how I'm feelin' today
I'm lookin' high up with glazed eyes
Tryna fly steady through these gray skies
