You better look dawg, you better
You better look dawg
Uh, yeah
Better look inside
Trying to look inside my heart, is your boy
Doing his part to find his soul accord
Easy to get caught in life's scoreboard
Panic mode if your output near the floorboard
I'm at the seaboard, I'm deep, no doubt feelin' some heat
Maybe my current plan of action now obsolete
Maybe trying to impress folks that I shouldn't be
I'm learning that life's best gifts are simple and free
I went to The Philippines, observed how they do
The most refreshing trip through a genuine view
Truly humble, don't take things too seriously
And stuff we take for granted for them is lucky
Now that I'm 30, I care less bout what you think
But that don't mean, I don't get self-conscious at the blink
Of an eye, so I try, to shield what you see inside
I'm a public person but sometimes I let that slide
Hide and seek is meant for kids, I'm a grown man
Though at times I'm liking posts 'stead of focused on my biz
I'm laying on my bed with my wife beside me
Both on phones, disconnected millennial shit b
Damn it if life ain't one big distraction right
We trade time with our family for a 9 to 5
I'm my own boss, I have some rule over Pete
I can provide for many years or week to week
But that email I couldn't snooze 'til Monday prevails
Now my mind ain't relaxed - back to the pay scale
When I should be visiting my Mom who's sick
And caring for her instead of building meaningless bricks
Just another cog in the machine, so what's up
Can I gain enough discipline to pattern interrupt
What are my goals accomplishing? A real cause
Or is all I desire inside to show you who's boss
Show me what you got inside
If you down to ride for a cause
Introspect with no flaws
Stay raw, even when society tries to make you
Run the other direction, fight it off like an infection
Show me what you got inside
If you down to ride for a cause
Introspect with no flaws
Stay raw, even when society tries to make you
Run the other direction, fight it off like an infection
You better look inside your heart
Is this world every thing you want, be your own savant
Can we regard your story avant-garde
Or are you replaying the same motherf*ckin' hand of cards
As another girl down block, she's doing her
Freeing you from her history to reoccur
So do your own thing, kna mean, and let it be
Make sure your time is spent on your legacy
Everyone looking at the other side of the glass
Seeing cats with big toys and that's hard to pass
We in the zoo of life, showcase in cases - hooray
Money over bullshit, accolades on full display
Yeah they signed the paperwork for a bangin' ride
Don't let that negate the valid dream you have inside
Don't let those baby pics make you feel short
If you rush God's plan the devil demands child support
The comparisons at some point have to stop
Cuz it's an empty existence when we follow a flock
We oughta be shot, for engaging reckless behavior
And I do mean reckless, crash in traffic no savior
Yo I miss the day when everyone had their own gig
Impervious to trends, building on their own rig
Nowadays the pressure to conform is too much
People following their parents' vision, their fate crushed
So why talk about it, if you can be about it
If you down on luck get like a dress
And just come up out it
Like a switch board take your plug and just reroute it
Change your mindset, stay adept, Eagle Scout shit
Take this damn world by the horns
And if that bull, paws the dust, punch it hard in the gut
Take a chance and just weather the storm
Be you or die trying fully reject all norms
Show me what you got inside
If you down to ride for a cause
Introspect with no flaws
Stay raw, even when society tries to make you
Run the other direction, fight it off like an infection
Show me what you got inside
If you down to ride for a cause
Introspect with no flaws
Stay raw, even when society tries to make you
Run the other direction, fight it off like an infection
Show me what you got inside
If you down to ride for a cause
Introspect with no flaws
Stay raw, even when society tries to make you
Run the other direction, fight it off like an infection
Show me what you got inside
If you down to ride for a cause
Introspect with no flaws
Stay raw, even when society tries to make you
Run the other direction, fight it off like an infection
