HOOK
I'm forever grateful for this life.
All my pretty flaws keep me alive
Things are not always as they appear, my love
All I ask is that you keep it real, my love
VERSE
I see right through it, it's translucent
Simple how i set the scene i'm so Stan Kubrick
It's odd to see (Odyssey) they see me Shining with they Eyes Wide Shut
On it like Clockwork, aren't (Orange) you terrified by us?
Cool is not the word, i'm taking it beyond that
School to me is a verb, i'm taking it beyond rap
So watch & learn as i pick & choose how to switch my views
Been dialed in on the biz & neglecting ridicule
Nothings ever perfect but it's always what you make it
& i know the sound cliche but take a second to embrace it
I scope the present & compare it my past
& hope i find a way to make this last
On my resume is not rich & famous but i'm an honest man
Couple homies poppin off the gram without the contraband
Grip the game i've gotta handle on it like some pots & pans
But satisfaction's always outta reach even w Giannis' span
I'm always wanting more, a double edged sword
I say we run up the score, no matter heights that we've soared
I guess i'm pretty pretty down to the core
