Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You expect me to know a lot of shit
That I'm just out here tryna figure out
You expect me to know the answer
To some shit that I'm just tryna get up out of
Where did the time, where did the time go?
I'm in the paint tryna be Rondo
Of course, you got the answers
'Cause you ain't the one that's in my position
[Verse 2]
I've been sorting through a lot of shit that's in my head now
A lot of shit that had me scared now
And don't you leave me here for dead now
I've been sorting through a lot of shit that's in my head now
A lot of shit that had me scared now
Don't you leave me here for dead now
[Verse 3]
Look, the winter is here, depression is tripling
Nobody give a shit, I'm gettin' bread
Industry really be killing my ****
Guess entertainment business yin and the yang
Wait, I'm not the same, I can't find no peace
I sacrifice my world to a world that ignore me
Black man in therapy 'cause white terror don't sleep
I got to roll up my leaf, might stop the PTSD
[Verse 4]
Carried away, bitches break up with you if you don't break
**** is lame, ****, my drive ain't the same
Of course you irate, it's a Wraith
On God, I got some reason to wear my head down (Head down)
Pray all my odds be even 'cause it get hard
And I follow what I feel but that's the issue (Issue)
My thoughts can be deceiving if they get a warm welcome
[Verse 5]
I've been sorting through a lot of shit that's in my head now
A lot of shit that had me scared now
And don't you leave me here for dead now
I've been sorting through a lot of shit that's in my head now
A lot of shit that had me scared now
And don't you leave me here for dead now
[Verse 6]
And on God, she got some reason to wear her head down (Head down)
Pray all her odds be even 'cause it get hard
And she follow what she feel and that's the issue (Issue)
My thoughts can be deceiving, my thoughts can be deceiving
[Verse 7]
Summer approaching, she look in the mirror
She wish it was winter, her tummy is poking
Looking at Instagram, making you sick
Yeah, the figure you're fishing for ain't in the ocean, no
Your potential is more than gold, expectations is bogus though
Talk about what the eye don't see, this is body dysmorphia
[Verse 8]
Most of these pseudo-celebrities ain't really beautiful as you could ever be
Talking the tanning and bleaching and all the procedures
That make you gon' think that you not a queen
I ain't judging, just being real, if the silicone help your anxiety
If I like you enough I'ma foot the bill
But you do it for you, shorty, not for me
[Verse 9]
That's the cycle that she repeat
All the models she following living sweet
But the body she like doesn't come for cheap
She will live under knife for the infamy
Say, but who am I to judge?
I got my own problems so I am not the one
When things get dark I be in my own mind
So even in the crowd I'll be more so alone, it's like, yo
[Verse 10]
Just like me, just like us
It's like her, it's like you
It's like us
[Verse 11]
Yeah, I've been sorting through a lot of shit that's in my head now
A lot of shit that had me scared now
Don't you leave me here for dead now
I've been sorting through a lot of shit that's in my head now
A lot of shit that had me scared now
And don't you leave me here for dead now
