issues lyrics
[verse]
i was gone but now i’ve arrived home
sorry but i had to go iso
put my iphone on flight mode
cos everybody watches when you’re on a tightrope
desperate for a few weeks off
to figure my life out and detox
but now i’m back at the treetops
this is soul food so flock to the feed lots
when i drop music people talk
even the ones that are right beside me
will they turn on me? it’s highly likely
but i’m going into this with no light to guide me
this newfound theme
came out of nowhere, from pеople who don’t care
to peoplе who hate me, i thought that was no fair
but nowadays haters knowing their place is so rare
got beats upon pages of notes
upon loose leafs and papers and quotes
you be sinking _ i’m staying afloat
only time we’re on par is when i’m faking a choke
you refused to ever say that i’m dope
you thought i was crazy but no
i made it here, it’s too late to retrace
or speak falsities or to make any jokes
my neigh sayers don’t get me
the ones who used to show love now show envy
like it’s my fault that people gravitated
towards digging my sound, man, i was mad patient
you can’t deny how hard i’ve tried
worked through the brighter days, battled through the darker nights
just wanting to come up with sharper rhymes
but the odds seem to stack higher the farther i climb
this project will focus on the pressure that i’m
putting on myself plus people that don’t notice
when i drop a new song, they move on
cos they assume it’s trash and don’t wanna be proved wrong
seems to me that there’s no exceeding these
expectations _ my followers already believe in me
plus the doubters are stubborn as sh_t
and they’re shrugging my accomplishments off so easily
the music that i’m making is hot
acting cold doesn’t mean that you’re able to beat the heat
don’t trigger me to commit the most
evil deeds, don’t unleash the deep_seeded beast
listeners expect me to spaz
but expect me to bare my soul like i did on
downers but i’ve never felt as empty as that
no rest for an artist _ i don’t get to relax
i’ve been working more and living less
i was able to quit the p_ss and cigarettes
give myself some time and let my liver rest
that old life and i have a disconnect
nowadays i just stress about life
making deep substance and letting out cries
but results aren’t something that i’m getting outright
i’m just focused on the end_goal _ epic sound bites
less time being social
seemed like an appealing proposal
but now i’m just making it up scrolling the gram
and can’t stop like i’ve lost control of my hand
i left that behind
but i kind of wanna head back in time
cos there was so much inspiration in that
the fast pace life had me satisfied
i felt like i could make the music
i was admiring at that moment
but the attitude it gave me was so potent
cos it sucked me in the second i approached it
thought i could be party animal
and achieve big things, now i know that’s
hardly rational, not my fault
as a rap fan i was doing what i was told
all alone when producing a beat
all alone _ just music and me
solo summed it all up
turn the competition into sawdust
i can do it on my lonesome
used to reach out to other rappers still no one
ever looked at me twice, treated me like
i was too enthusiastic but without enthusiasm you ain’t
reaching these heights and that’s guaranteed
get ready for an ettrick that you haven’t seen
get ready for rejection to light a f_cking
fire underneath me, i’m coming at you savagely
i’m not good enough at this
to balance my other flaws so there’s tonnes of sh_t
i have to do before my self_esteem does a flip
but there will never come a day i stop loving it
i tried getting in with the ladies
by asking for a hook or a verse
but when i got on that sh_t i went crazy
and they were afraid _ i don’t know why it phased me
cos i’m on a mission and they’re my competition and they’re lazy
if i had seen it like that i would have been grinning big
but it’s all down to perception isn’t it
a couple people wanna take up rapping as a hobby
just to follow the cheese
or get some attention and if they don’t get it then i’m copping the heat
you can probably see
that this way more than a hobby to me
that’s why i’m able to stay in the pocket with ease
but some just refuse to acknowledge the fact
that it’s a real sk!ll jotting these raps
they write without a purpose or reason
and the more people do it the further it cheapens
i feel like an education student doing placement
cos while i’m learning i’m teaching
i’m seeing gangsters who lack any vision
attempting to play but then they turn chicken
hitting me up expecting sparks of wisdom
that’s when i say “get to work” but they didn’t
i’m not getting paid for this
but it doesn’t feel like work cos all i have to do is
say my truth with a creative twist
that’s how i stay persistent
and that’s what keeps me motivated
f_ck the bag, going for broke and i know i’m hated
no one expects me to flow insane sh_t
but i’d rather that than be overrated
and this is not hard to say
if you haven’t got emotions than don’t be a poser
i’ve chosen the road _ you chose to blend in and that’s
totally dope but aren’t the same
