Note To Self Lyrics by Nate Nics

.photos (EP)

2023

[Verse: Nate Nics and Reflection]
You ain't been doing what you 'sposed to do, my nigga
You ain't been moving how you 'sposed to move, you truant nigga
Saying you waiting for a time to prove, just do it nigga
You rocking stripes and ain't been earning yours or moving figures
Claiming your people just don't understand the movement
And the content you perusing just to drop
And move like you been at the top
Shooting music through they're veins
Claiming you here to stay
Reluctant to hit the stage
Then shocked when they scream your name
Propping up those around, forgetting the ones who came
When you wasn't the same young nigga paving a lane
For the youth
Still ashamed of the truth
Boy, you afraid of the booth
Different days, but colors is all the same when the proof
Hits your face
You prolly been losing sleep
Praying you make it soon or catastrophe strikes your seat
Knocking you off your feet, leaving your mind a haze
Then you'd have an excuse for not making it off the page
You talking like you the one and still wondering how to dream
Showing 'em how it's done then forgoing the lights to flee
How you been skipping flasks to trip and talk out your ass
'Bout niggas wearing a mask and struggling just to breathe
You should be in the fray when they talking bout who to beat
Talking bout who was dropping the best of verses and schemes
Different cadences too
Boy, you know what the fuck I mean
You been taking it easy 'cause you ain't tryna believe
That you been one of the greatest since you was just seventeen
All alone in your room penning 'All Alone' for your team
Driven beyond belief, you writing like yous a fiend
Future was hot balloons and the music was your release
Kept you grounded and soon it would take you to higher peaks
Different places
Scenes getting changes
Vacants to plane tix
Portraits painted, pain sticks to dayshifts
Take trips to work then flake on vacations
See, I know you want to move different
I know you building community 'cause you scared to lose control
And sit alone in your mischief
Hope you paying attention
You the one who needs support
But never asks 'cause you scared of being attached to that feeling
Is it need or helplessness
You ain't tryna take the chance finding answers
Rather dance in a cursed existence
Yo, what's the point
If I'm breathing, yo, whats the problem
You busy thinking survival is living nigga you wylin
But fuck it
This just talk and the way you're weighing your options
You prolly gon end up flopping, I'm changing the fucking topic
Not the case
Let's be honest who you think you really lying to
Don't forget your conscience is prominent deep inside of you
Signing different deals and posturing just to feel
Preposterous you imposter, impossible bruise to heal
Shit, I know
Yeah, whatever I just hope you don't forget
The only reason you breathing is 'cause I prevent your death
Keep your heart, nigga
[Outro: Reflection and Nate Nics]
Yeah. Keep your heart
Don't forget how you start
And be careful falling apart
Huh
Just keep your heart, nigga
Keep your heart
Keep your heart, nigga
Keep your heart
Don't forget how you start
And be careful falling apart
[Post-Track: Nate Nics]
Yeah, I guess
Yeah... whatever, whatever
