Take It Easy Video (MV)

Take it easy
Sometimes I think it's hard to be me
And that my life is lacking magic, just as static as a broken TV
Sometimes I feel I need a lifestyle change
I'm overweight and all this weight on my shoulders I can't afford to gain
I tend to complain bout a lack of peace
How my brain is crowded and how I always come back to these rhymes
In my old journalism notes when all I had was hope
Back in South Hall 223, we should've recorded these
Sometimes I feel that I don't feel enough
That I be so hard on myself sometimes that I don't even feel no love
That's prolly why I lack the drive to get my shorty back and now her name is mostly followed up with a was
It was my fault
And I admit it now, my thoughts are vivid now
Except the evil few that try to whisper "boy you finished now"
I guess it's time that I go make my rounds to end them now before they get me down and I be moping driving cross the town
Damn, that's how it happens
I got a goal to find the balance between easing up my mind and rapping
Perfecting crafts can be disastrous
If you ain't came for some air then you'll look up and see another month has passed again
This what the old folks mean when they say you grow up quickly
Niggas come up from that water and be 50
And never take their time til the longer stretch is behind them
And til they see that ribbon at the finish line so nigga take it easy
And just live in the present somedays
I know that peace of mind can be attained in more than one way
I think to lead the blind could also be just fixing your ways
To know your flaws should never make you ashamed
No need to blame, just take it easy
We all just wanna live freely
And I can be the one you lean on if you need me
Just take it slow
Cuz you never wanna lose control
Or reach the point you gotta let it go, shit
Y'all take it easy
To all my niggas from the Northside
Niggas from the Southside (Y'all take it easy)
To all my niggas from the Westside Niggas from the Eastside (Y'all take it easy)
To all my niggas worldwide
All my niggas worldwide (Y'all take it easy)
To all my niggas worldwide
I write this verse on what's likely the final day of Auntie Anne's life
Shit has got me thinking bout mine
And how my head is always up in the sky
And now I'm finally back on Earth and came to terms with my blindness in past times
I'm not a holy nigga
At least I know I don't be the only nigga
If life's a problem, dawg I don't know the figures
Back in Memphis my homies tryna cross the shit on their wishlist
But we got dreams bigger than paper
My homie JB got cancer and she ascended to Heaven
So when it rains blessings I try to pause for a second
Think I took living for granted
Had my list of sins, sometimes I've been selfish
It got me wondering why I never perished
I use that as a lesson tho
My mind be running fast gotta take it slow
Can't worry bout the future much it's too unpredictable
I've been inside my head enough it's like I've been in a hole
So please don't hit the door before I let you know my nigga take it easy
And just live in the present somedays
I know that peace of mind can be attained in more than one way
I think to lead the blind could also be just fixing your ways
To know your flaws should never make you ashamed
No need to blame, just take it easy
We all just wanna live freely
And I can be the one you lean on if you need me
Just take it slow
Cuz you never wanna lose control
Or reach the point you gotta let it go
Y'all take it easy
To all my niggas from the Northside
Niggas from the Southside (Y'all take it easy)
To all my niggas from the Westside Niggas from the Eastside (Y'all take it easy)
To all my niggas worldwide
All my niggas worldwide (Y'all take it easy)
To all my niggas worldwide
