Tell me how I stay positive When they never see good in me
What separated me from all my homeboys is the fact that I didn't get caught inside the reality. I was always dreaming about doing something else or going somewhere else.
The one in front of the gun lives forever
My rights, my wrongs, I write ‘til I’m right with God.
And I'm not sure why I'm infatuated with death, My imagination is surely an aggravation of threats... Maybe cause I'm a dreamer, and sleep is the cousin of death, Really stuck in the scheme of wondering when I'mma rest.
Although the butterfly and the caterpillar are completely different, they are one and the same.
We all get distracted, the question is, would you bounce back or bounce backwards?
If I told you that a flower bloomed in a dark room, would you trust it?
Life Will Put Many Red Lights In Front Of You, But Sometimes We Must Push On The Gas And Trust God

Y'all may be scared; I'm not scared.
The sky is falling, the wind is calling Stand for something, or die in the morning
So next time you feel like your world is about to end, I hope you studied because He's testing your faith again.
Build your own pyramids, write your own hieroglyphs.
