Retrograde

Tired of running
Mind steady running tick tock the time steady running
So exhausted I find that I want to take it slow
Trynna save my soul from my egos hold
No letting go like it caught a prey
I just pray, I can get this weight up off my brain
Always getting blazed crossing different strains
Made a promise to myself that I'd refrain
For at least 365 days trynna find my way
Lost up in this maze, caught up in my ways
Everybody born know they gotta make mistakes
My subconscious steady warning me
I gotta feel the pain if I ever want the gains
Life is full of test and its pouring when it rains
Finding bigger treasures than the fortune and the fame
Am I really chasing dreams or the happiness they bring
Going out in public just to practice being sane
Then Im back up in the lab, mac up in my lap
Got my pen and pad, master of my craft
Mind be running wild let my madness out on tracks
Let me snap! I said nigga let me snap
Walking down my path trynna get these demons off my back
So Im shaking 'em off
I be shaking 'em off
I be shaking 'em off
I be shaking 'em off
The same back I be praying for my angels to watch
The same back my team on headed straight for the top
Headed straight for the top
Headed straight for the top
Headed straight for the top
Headed straight for the top
No room for these demons so Im shaking 'em off
I be praying for my angels to watch, me


Words flowing like the stream, I need cleansing
Urges tell me that I need pussy need riches
Higher self says I need wisdom need temperance
Team tell me that we need hits so keep killing
Im conflicted, grades slippin now my mom and pops tripping
I know Im blessed to live this life that Im living
But lately my mind spinning busy dealing with my own problems
Always folks who would kill to have your problems
But give me some inner peace and I'll help with the globes problems
Winning with my team hope the money ain't more problems, shit
But running and ain't gone solve them
Time for me to face them no time for being complacent
Time to make some changes no time for me to being playing
Time to see my name as a topic of conversation
Time to get my weight up start popping around the nation
Time for me to take what the fuck is mine for the taking
Im out...
