Look Around Video (MV)

If I'm being honest I ain't never had a friend
And at the end
I know I'll be alone in my coffin
Maybe it's because I stay at home and I'm cautious
Cuz I don't like to go out in the open so often
Maybe it's because I got a problem inside of my brain
Maybe I just got tired of dealing with drama and pain
Maybe I'm insane
Maybe if I try hard enough then I can change
But it's hard for me to keep it real
When the doctor tells me
All I really need is pills and my thoughts are so f*cked up
That they need to be concealed
The truth is hard to swallow but it needs to be revealed
Yeah
It needs to be
I can tell you that it doesn't happen easily
I can see that you hide behind a mask and when in ask
I can see that you ain't even free
Look around
You can see that you not free
Everybody telling lies but it's not me
Everybody wanna vibe cuz it's on beat
Yeah
Look around
Look around
You can see that you not free
Everyday it's like I got a mountain to climb to find motivation
There's only doubt in my mind, it comes and goes in phases
I really hope it changes
I'm in an open cage with broken dreams and hopeless wages
Maybe I just need to open up my brain a little bit
Maybe I was f*cked as soon as I became a little kid
Maybe I just need to learn to give and take a little bit
Or maybe it's because I'm always complaining about the shit
Yo I try to stay positive, ominous thoughts prominent
Taking over, why are they so dominant
I'm feeling all alone like I'm on my own continent
And running out of oxygen
Yeah
I'm out of breath quick
Looking for my next fix
Searching for some air
I ain't really got a death wish
Nah, I just gotta change my mindset
All I really know is
I don't wanna die yet
Look around
You can see that you not free
Everybody telling lies but it's not me
Everybody wanna vibe cuz it's on beat
Yeah
Look around
Look around
You can see that you not free
Look
You shouldn't judge a book by the cover
Hip hop is in the blood of every son and every mother
Every single person that is walking this earth
Has poetry in his mind to put his thoughts in a verse
We started in the same place before we all got dispersed
That's real shit
We learned to hate each other real quick
Cuz we all got problems that we don't wanna deal with
Look, I can't be any clearer
It all starts and ends with the man that's in the mirror
You can't give in to fear
All the pressure from your peers
Everybody's a professor when they lecture in your ear
I don't hear it though
Keep my circle small like a cheerio
Really though
I ain't even tryna be funny
It takes a lot for me to trust you with my wife and my money
And when my life is on the line
I expect you by my side riding
Ready to die
