Days Before Lyrics by Innocent

Days Before -

2018

[Verse 1]

This shit really takes a lot of sleepless nights
That 2AM alone is my greatest high
Think that death’s the only way to save my mind
You would be consumed if you lived this life
Clocking in like non-stop
Doing all I can before my time’s up
Don’t look at me like I’m not
The Sherpa that’ll summit more than climb up
Some that I know have no clue about where they’re heading
The ones that do will die before their parents fucking let em
I’m Di Caprio in front Margot Robbie trynna get it
For the sedatives of life and the REST fucking set in
Girls that are taken come at me like they’re single
Playboy but I don’t kiss and tell to keep it simple
Stupid how they say that I’ve thrown my morals out the window
When we’re living in a culture that is all the way sinful
Disliked by a panel of my peers
For being ambitious, gifted and focused and sincere
Cause they don’t understand what was done to get here
My father’s haunted by the past to this year
He wished me 100 years on my birthday
Forgetting we were s’posed to be immortal in the first place
Yeah were s’posed to be immortal in the first place

[Part II]

[Hook]

Putting in more hours than a lawyer would
I swear I don’t even sleep like I know I should
All the demons of this life keep up me up at night
And the divas too but that’s all good
That’s all good
Don’t see me for me baby that’s all good
Jealous of the boy you know that’s all good
Creeping’ with your girl you know that’s all wood
That's all good
That's all good
(You know)


[Verse 2]

It’s been too long since the last time
So I guess I’ll fill you in
I talk more on records than in real life
I don’t let nobody in
Since the last it's safe to say that I'm higher up
Pick a song you know that I've got the Midas touch
Hard work and talent is my kinda luck
Around all these flopping ass lames shit I just Harden up
Been searching for inspiration in different places
Find myself haunted by several female faces
Can't seem to find a match though I tally aces
Hard to not see the green when you're in the matrix
People wonder how I got it like this
I labour over my work like a tradie with bricks
And leave home now and then just to party a bit
But don’t be fooled there’s no balance in this
Fell out with religion but I’m still on my God shit
Bars so hard they make niggas feel nauseous
Broads so bad like ahhh I’m talking gorgeous
I wanna be the king of the richest I’m talking Forbes list
You can’t ignore this
Like you trynna be me know you cannot force this
While You Waited I just worked and made good
I know people that clap and cheer that would've stole if they could
If I wasn’t me shit I would
Learnt that what it takes is just not understood
By hate on your grind people
That wish you the worst evil
I rose above the crowd and doubt a rebirthed eagle
And I’m here killing this shit
And y’all here feeling this shit


[Hook]

Putting in more hours than a lawyer would
I swear I don’t even sleep like I know I should
All the demons of this life keep up me up at night
And the divas too but that’s all good
That’s all good
Rolling up the leaf you know that’s all good
Drinking Alizé you know that’s all good
Clubbing way too late you know that’s all good
That’s all good
Don’t see me for me baby that’s all good
Jealous of the boy you know that’s all good
Creeping’ with your girl you know that’s all wood
That's all good
That's all good
