[Part I]
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Shouts to Ian's beard, it looks phenomenal
Just, just wonderful shape-up
Look, hold up, hold up
[Verse 1]
Hold up, hold up, what it do?
I been feelin' out of place for like a month or two
I been in and out of spaces I ain't comfortable
I been semi-functional, alcoholic livin'
I been risin', though, despite it
I been hearin' lots of riot in the quiet
I been feelin' like my life is at that point
It's fight or flight, it's pen and mic, it's settle or keep appetite, it's
So much more than what it could've been
All these doors, I gotta push 'em in
I want more, but look around, homie, shit, I got a lot
Would you rather cry in mansion or be singin' in a cot?
Some nights, I be thinkin' thoughts, others I be thinkin' thots
Scrollin', scrollin', scrollin', stomach all in sinkin' knots, but yo
Long as I'm never thinkin' stop
My spirit day-to-day, but he gon' play tomorrow, watch, motherf—
Yeah
[Chorus]
I ain't chasin' rainbows
I live in the rain, life is more than a pot of gold (Pot of gold)
Like the way you hit them angles
But I can't stay around too long, yo, I gotta go (Gotta go)
Ain't nothin' out here a free throw (Free throw)
We could be better, homie, we know (We know)
We been out here lookin' for the cheat code (Cheat code, yeah)
It was in the work all along
[Verse 2]
All along, all along, shit, I couldn't call it, dog
Wall Street to Audobon, problem, problem, problems, dog
All the, all the, all the, smog
Everybody wanna look outside for inner peace, all exempt to our critiques
So much life could be created, but your attitude on condom, dog
Want the fire? Then it's hours that we gotta log
We created players, fuck these lil' style attributes, we bought 'em all
What happens when we got 'em all?
All I know's I got a lot to prove
I'm gon' show I got a lot to lose
This world cold, we got a lot to do with it, tryin' be opportunistic
While they tryin' induce quittin' on honorable missions
Told 'em stop bein' different and they should be indifferent
I said, what if we didn't? If we lived it?
Like we said we would
I think that smile we been lookin' for is in the mud
I was swimmin' in the mud
I was drownin' in the liquor, I was stuck, now I'm up, yeah
Now I'm up, ain't no cheatin' in my blood (Yeah)
Fuck the weakness, can't defeat this type of tough motherfucker, hold up
[Chorus]
I ain't chasin' rainbows
I live in the rain, life is more than a pot of gold (Pot of gold)
Like the way you hit them angles
But I can't stay around too long, yo, I gotta go (Gotta go)
Ain't nothin' out here a free throw (Free throw)
We could be better, homie, we know (We know)
We been out here lookin' for the cheat code (Cheat code)
It was in the work all along
[Part II]
[Verse]
Mirror, mirror, I don't look like me
But would I know me if you showed me? Yeah
Mirror, mirror, I don't look like me
Tell me what you know about it
If you was me, shit, tell me how you'd go about it
Dyin' to eat where the table ain't clean, no, where clothes expensive
And the souls all cheap, though, I been on the offensive
Like y'all don't know me, y'all write your shit in pencil
My pen is my sword and I fence through this fence
You can see me, I'm fightin' so hard to resent you
Wan' taste the air I was conditioned for
So let the breeze blow, blow, blow, I won't indulge my woes
Feel like everybody like me now, but no one love me no more
They all wan' talk to me but don't want me no more
If I don't make it all the way, they gon' punt me for sure
Man, I know it, man, I know it
Reflection in the glass, so I'm pourin', man, I'm pourin'
Tank close to E from all the motion, keep the tears inside
So feel like my stomach rowin' in the storm now
Already tired, but they all applaud my form, how
Can I keep 'em satisfied when I'm worn down?
When deep inside, I crave the life that I've torn down for 'em just a little bit
It's gettin' harder and harder to give a shit
I'm gettin' farther and farther from simple shit
They say you ain't scared of fallin', you scared of jumpin'
Sometimes I'm scared and ashamed of the shit I want, shit
