[P.O.S.:]
2
Yeah, yeah [x6]
3
I pick a lotta locks, rock a lotta shows
4
Build with the moms, hang with the broken crow
5
Been hurting the same heart since I was like two
6
I use sarcasm freely, bark at the greedy
7
Bite what feeds, shy from the seedy
8
I'm bold in approach, so rely on my hope
9
That the average emcees can't fuck with the sound like me
10
I never been down with the king
11
It's never something I wanted to be
12
Never better than the work than the toil and the reap
13
But the work for the wants, not the suffer for the needs
14
Nothing's tougher than the... dreams and good sleep
15
Trying to teach my son to reach, damn right
16
Cause it gets a little darker every night
17
And the rent goes up, they gon' cut out the...
18
[Chorus:]
19
Dead ends to chase, feelings to fake
20
New hearts to break, amends to make, they all so
21
Afraid and safe, in need of space
22
But hugging that crowd, only shake with the quake
23
And uh, times like this are up
24
We break their stride cause we break our mirrors
25
They hugging that pride like it's all there is
26
We make our own and if they don't feel it
27
Then we are not for them (and that's cool)
28
[P.O.S.:]

Yo, I made this beat for Alegra Oxborough
30
She showed me how to do the thing with the cups
31
I wrote the verse on a triple double Tuesday
32
Riding in the van in the back lot
33
I never made it in, never really can tell the friends these days
34
Telephone don't sleep some days
35
Someday I'm a be peaceful again
36
Till then keep speech to a min
37
Shed a little skin, I'm a bet it all and win
38
I'm a set it off and run, I'm a kill it till it's dead
39
I'm a do it till it ain't fun and words don't come
40
Then I'm gonna find another hobby
41
Probably find love, probably find trust
42
Eighty-one young with a little bit of rust
43
Clean interior, Minnesota plates
44
Money in the bank with a lot of you to thank
45
Relate to the...
46
[Chorus:]
47
Dead ends to chase, feelings to fake
48
New hearts to break, amends to make, they all so
49
Afraid and safe, in need of space
50
But hugging that crowd, only shake with the quake
51
And uh, times like this are up
52
(Up for whatever, how are you?)
53
WE BREAK THEIR STRIDE CAUSE WE BREAK OUR MIRRORS
54
THEY HUGGING THAT PRIDE LIKE IT'S ALL THERE IS
55
WE MAKE OUR OWN AND IF THEY DON'T FEEL IT
56
THEN WE ARE NOT FOR THEM, WE COME WILD
57
[P.O.S.:]
58
Dead ends to chase, feelings to fake
59
New hearts to break, amends to make, they all so
60
Afraid and safe, in need of space
61
But hugging that crowd, only shake with the quake
62
And uh, dead ends to chase, feelings to fake
63
New hearts to break, amends to make, they all so
64
Afraid and safe, in need of space
65
But hugging that crowd, only shake, that's it
