Afraid of Us (feat. Zeroh)

I was sitting in Japan when my nephew was born

Broke my damn heart when I wasn't there for him

It made me think about my life and my order of operations

I was drunk at a show and fucked my boy's set up

It was a blessing when he checked me at the check in

I ain't been the same and I'll never forget it (Thank you D)

I've been the burden of my people and alienating fans

Just thinking they would never understand

Really, it's the wavelength bringing us together in a way

So I should be more open to two-way

And if I ever did you something dirty, I do pray

I get another chance but this karma catching up in a true way, yeah

I've been so caught up in the lack of acceptance

I never focused on the man to accept

And if it's too late for a formal apology, I accept it

And if it's too late for a formal apology, I accept it

You think me less of what I am but maybe that's a blessin'

I just hope that I can spread my message A to Z

Shit, all I could say is put it down

Your position been compromised

Everything has a beginnin' and an end

I know glory'll take you dead or alive

In ruts fucked up off such and such is thus just because

You're afraid of us

Yeah, so put it down, put it down

Now your position compromised

Everything has a beginnin' and an end

I know glory'll take you dead or alive

In ruts fucked up off such and such is thus just because

You're afraid of us

All my life, I was looking for love

Found it in Florida under the too hot sun

Took it for granted, started to run

Became the man or the gun

But now I'm looking down the barrel of one

On my knees when I heard she could see my skin was empty

Please wake me when the self hatred is done

And I try, but she reminds me of what I've become

I thought I knew myself, but that knowing is done

I just hope she still sees my love

And for that, I just hope these old songs take off

I need a house and a rack

For every leaf of grass on my big-ass lawn

And as I see my family progress

All I want is a daughter or son

Been around the world playing rapper is dumb

Fulfilling fantasies of a teenage me

And at the end it's my people bringing joy to the one

Some advice, don't you ever lose sight about where you're from

A to Z

All I could say is put it down

Your position been compromised

Everything has a beginnin' and an end

I know glory'll take you dead or alive

Ha, in ruts fucked up off such and such is thus just because

You're afraid of us

Yeah, so put it down and get it in

Now your position compromised

Everything has a beginnin' and an end

I know glory'll take you dead or alive

Ha, ha, in ruts fucked up off such and such is thus just because

You're afraid of us

Yo, look at these people

Countin' on me when I can't even count on myself

Look at these homies

So sure of me when I'm not so sure of myself

I need help

But I'm too damn proud to stop the progress now

I need to slow down

But I need a good friend to come and tell me how, yeah

Look at these people

Countin' on me when I can't even count on myself

Look at these homies

So sure of me when I'm not so sure of myself

I need help

But I'm too damn proud to stop the progress now

I need to slow down

But I need a good friend to come and tell me how

Look at these people

Countin' on me when I can't even count on myself

Look at these homies

So sure of me when I'm not so sure of myself

Yeah, I need help

But I'm too damn proud to stop the progress now

Yeah, I need to slow down

But I need a good friend to come and tell me how

Look at these people

Countin' on me when I can't even count on myself

Look at these homies

So sure of me when I'm not so sure of myself

Yeah, I need help

But I'm too damn proud to stop the progress now

Yeah, I need to slow down

But I need a good friend to come and tell me how

Look at these people (All right, damn)

Countin' on me when I can't even count on myself

Yeah, look at these homies (What are y'all doin'?)

So sure of me when I'm not so sure of myself

I need help

But I'm too damn proud to stop the progress now

I need to slow down (Stop smoking)

But I need a good friend to come and tell me how (Let's put it down)

Look at these people (They put it down)

Countin' on me when I can't even count on myself

Look at these homies

So sure of me when I'm not so sure of myself

I need help

But I'm too damn proud to stop the progress now

Yeah, I need to slow down

But I need a good friend to come and tell me how
