released this song on my 26th birthday. it sounds like the birthday party i always wanted.
lyrics
first the candles get blown out, the red carpet rolls out,
+ now you gotta start your year,
going thru some things but it ain't like nosebleeds so i got a ceiling,
+ honestly i'm feeling ok if we comparing >
i'm wearing my shoulders upright back to seeing the upside.
soaking up sunshine smiling more,
i got the wheel back waving out the driver door finding more drive > every day to do what i adore,
got tired of sittin around + brought myself up,
along w/ people i never ask for help from they just got it,
+ guided me to the sweet light, each night i thought i wouldn't make it > they was on my line saying what i needed,
+ now i'm out the house + i'm good,
made a mess of my twenties + pressed my teeth to my foot >
plenty of times but despite it a fire has been ignited,
+ now i got a million more reasons to be alive +,
(hook)
tough livin just to get by,
stackin money just to get sky high,
we wasn't sposed to make it past 25,
joke's on you we still alive,
throw your hands up in the sky & say >
we don't care what people say,
i been discouraged, a tad malnourished,
biting off hands when i should've held em out for those w/o,
i never made a practice of catering to your brackets >
i busted down stone walls to evolve out of habit >
i stalled at first caused, by letting unknown go unsolved,
in the process of forgetting how to talk,
i'm more straight to the point + less filtered,
tryna show more love be less self-centered,
i ain't gon be around forever in the physical form >
so my clock won't stop runnin for nothing,
your hate your enate energy wasted on mistakes, + false prophets,
the cake different when you start countin,
i'm tryna leave something fuck being content i'm tryna be something, y'all cool w/ living in space but i believe something >
+ it ain't that we all gon come back as a tree,
i'm leaving this earth behind my prophecy's been designed >
written in my bloodline was a notion,
that across any lake river or ocean i'ma travel for mine,
may The Great Hands bless you in time,
+ as i raise of mine to the divine for another digit,
i look around + ain't nothing missing,
seeing clearer thru the fog, still on a light log towards the mission.
but not trippin cuz whatever's put into the cards will soon be gifted,
+ everything else is in the stars,
