Guard Up Lyrics by Proxy Selassie

T o r n

2022

[VERSE 1]
I write a lot
Spend so much time with my pen
I think we should tie the knot
I'm tired a lot
Spend so much time with my thoughts
I know my pride a lot
I think I'm right a lot but know I'm wrong
Think I fight a lot to prove I'm strong
Massa probably proud I'm in the field
Sometimes you need a problem just to get a feel
Sometimes you need the dark and all revealed
Sometimes you need to spark and thoughts is killed

[Chorus]
Need to guard up
I'm a walking bucket
World can take your feelings and say fuck it
I got my guard up
In case a nigga rushing

[VERSE 2]
Feeling broke as hell will taunt you to death
Been watching close all my partners that left
I'm guarded now and it's probably for best
They'll call me foul but they not a damn ref
Donе talking
Running out of damn breath
Done biting tongue
Trust mе it's gone come
Tryna' find my brethren
Tryna' spread a message
Through frustrated music
Mental pauses on too many occasions music
Running out of patience music
Music that's like the medication you using
Screw it
I think everybody just a clone
It's hard to find me when I'm not in the zone
If it's hard to find me then leave me alone
Be nodding off so much
Would think I'm off the lean

[Chorus]
Need to guard up
I'm a walking bucket
World can take your feelings and say fuck it
I got my guard up
In case a nigga rushing

[VERSE 3]
Not hard to see that I'm up to something
Understand if you hard at seeing
I got shit that'll blow they pumpkin
Don't got 808s bumping without a reason
I got work that's for all the four seasons
Shit I might just dump it
Leave all these niggas with nothing
Make sure you see how I'm coming
Don't push my Benjamin's buttons
Niggas gone make me get bags
You niggas don't want it
A warning
I'll let them picture that

[Chorus] X2
Need to guard up
I'm a walking bucket
World can take your feelings and say fuck it
I got my guard up
In case a nigga rushing
