Backseat

Oh, all my life been a black sheep

All my life been the black keys

True, I never really was a bad breed

Daddy probably rather me an athlete

Man, that **** move like a taxi

All my life in the backseat

You talk about life, is it that sweet?

All these eyes staring at me

I've been feeling real low, ****, low-key

How a brave heart feeling so weak?

Tattoos on my passport, no sleep

This is what you asked for, don't weep

Don't whinge, man, I'm here and I won't leave

All I wanna do, make songs, blow trees

Wouldn't be honest with myself if I don't speak

So I make the point to address them, man, you know me

Got me believing in Buddha the more I proceed

Oh, this life isn't guaranteed

All my life felt a cold breeze

And then now we staying up and never down, you hearing me now?

Give me some time and a little space I'll figure it out

They wanna know my whereabouts and who I'm around

Been in wonderland for time tryna find our way out

You can hear it in my rhymes, I'll be thinking aloud

I'ma be a ghost for a minute, don't get in your feelings

I ain't even wrote for a minute, not a single lyric

Man, I got a life that is crazy, most cannot live it

See 'em tryna sabotage me, got me fucking livid

All my life been a black sheep

All my life been the black keys

True, I never really was a bad breed

Daddy probably rather me an athlete

Man, that **** move like a taxi

All my life in the backseat

You talk about life, is it that sweet?

All these eyes staring at me

Phone rings and I misread everyone

All I hear them saying is look what you've become

This is what you signed up for, you forget

This is what you get, this is what you get

All these eyes in the front row

Hella pure souls in the front row

'Member seeing J Cole, I was in the front row

Couldn't move, was in awe if you must know

Still struggling to find who I trust though

All my life in the cut though

All my life caught the bus home through the north side

Then I got a pedal bike, mommy flipped when I got home

Like people getting killed out here

But mommy, I'm a rider and a fighter

Never been a dickhead in life though never try me

Don't get it confused 'cause I'm humble and I'm quiet

Loud **** step into Simz and get silenced

I ain't got to say how and it don't involve violence

Though I got G's that already gonna here for it

But there's no need, I just want peace

Take me higher, get an eight from the supplier

Make your mind up, what you mean? What you desire?

**** hating but it's cool, man, it's a minor

I'll just do me on my own and I'm the driver

Twenty three, feeling older and I'm wiser

All my life I search for what I'd die for

Guess I am the one the people I'ma fight for

Surely you should know regret, know who you ride for

All my life been a black sheep

All my life been the black keys

True, I never really was a bad breed

Daddy probably rather me an athlete

Man, that **** move like a taxi

All my life in the backseat

You talk about life, is it that sweet?

All these eyes staring at me

Phone rings and I misread everyone

All I hear them saying is look what you've become

This is what you signed up for, you forget

This is what you get, this is what you get
