Lyrics
[Chorus]
I'm a work of art
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in the dark
For the therapy, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe
[Verse 1]
I am the paint
And I'm the brush, and I'm the canvas
I am a saint
But if you touch, I am a savage
I am a Libra
But I identify as a Cancer
I am the tongue
Truth and the lie, both in tandem
I am the sun
And I'm the rain, and I'm the wind
I am for real and I'm pretend
I am Musa, I am Jesus, I am Judas
I am the judge
I am the victim and I'm the shooter
I'm in the Torah
And the Qur'an, and in the Bible
I am a shepherd
I am leader and a disciple
I am the wretched
And the blessed, I am the average
I am the shadow, and I'm the light
I am the marriage
[Chorus]
I'm a work of art
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in the dark
For the therapy, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe
I'm a work of art, yeah
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in the dark, yeah
For the therapy, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe
[Verse 2]
My soul feels trapped like I am writing to Bryson Tiller beats
On the road to inner peace, taking unfamiliar streets
Tried to kill the beats, just make it grow more
My shadow's haunting me, what you think I'm driving a Ghost for?
Perceptions POW, voices in my head like, "We don't fuck with you"
Ego is the poison, the cure is being uncomfortable
After the chaos comes certain clarity
Being a public figure is constant immersion therapy
Make sure that when you stare at me every flaw is highlighted
See yourself when you see me instead of acting like you got blindsided
By the fact that I'm human, the good, the bad, and the ugly
Just know that you looking right into a mirror when you judge me, you know
[Verse 3]
I'm still working
As I live and breathe
For myself
[Verse 4]
Sword up to my neck again
I ain't holding my breath again
Head's heavy that wears the crown, but I won't bow down to lesser men
I'm a king, no denying this
Every limit, I'm defying it
Everybody wanna be a lion until it's time to do lion shit
I'ma lead till I die
Follow me to the peace
Through the fire
In my dreams, out of reach
On the horizon
What I see, mystery
The surprises, the energy
They tried to censor me
But then they sent for me
And I ain't come alone, I brought my symphony
My life, my love, my laugh, my holy trinity
[Chorus]
I'm a work of art
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in the dark
For the therapy, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe
I'm a work of art, yeah
Baby, look at me, I'm a work of art
Now they framing me, painting in the dark, yeah
For the therapy, I'm a work of art
As I live and breathe
[Outro]
As I live and breathe
As I live and breathe
