I'm working my hardest
I'm going my farthest
I'm picking the harvest
This year is the largest
They like to compare but
I couldn't be bothered
I'm way too busy to look under my nostrils
Musical magic, feel like harry potter
Avada kedavra the beat, it get slaughtered
Yeah I'm stressed, but this isn't harder
You already know I go through it no problem
No problemo
I gotta celebrate making some queso
Sipping on lemonade, that's no Faygo
Your songs outdated, so age-old
The weather in here is boiling
It must've been from all the fuego
I don't do any of the same old things, I don't go where they go
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere...you get the idea
Somewhere different
I do it for those who listen
The world would be a better place if some of yall just mind your own business
We're not the same, know the difference
Going in and out the game was never on my wishlist
I just walked in, walked out, like, "It's a hit"
I don't really feel the need to lie, yeah it's all legit
If you know me, you know I been at it since a little kid
In another universe, in a completely different realm
I am not an individual who only lives to rest
This is the part where my ambitions and real life intersect
This is the part where walls are placed around me and limits set
Broke them all, not a drop of sweat, and still I'm not finished yet
7 months feel like 7 years when I don't drop
You know how it goes on the grind: can't stop, won't stop
When I say I'll be something big, don't believe me, just watch
When I cook up a classic, they smell it, I feel like the Rock
Hit after hit, like it's MMA
After waiting and letting them marinade
The real ones saw the skill elevate
After I help them have a better day
Do I really need a reason to celebrate?
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere different
Somewhere...yeah all right onto the next one

Beach
02:59

In the beach, each, like I'm Nicki
Starship's on the way, who's coming with me?
I'll take a break from the city
To the sky I gaze. It's so pretty
Floating in the sea
Blue is all I see
I wonder where the tide will take me
To a better place
And I make beats
Just like Tay Keith
But being Dre level needs a PhD
I'm on a tangent. Sometimes it happens. I'm just chilling
I'm relaxing. Something like magic. I'm feeling great
Greater than I've ever been
I'm in my zone. I'm in my element
I think I'm in my prime but I just keep getting better
Sunburns kinda hurt and my skin is redder
But that's okay yeah that's fine
Never before have I felt so alive
You already know we in the Middle East
More specifically, I'm
In the beach, each, like I'm Nicki
Starship's on the way, who's coming with me?
I'll take a break from the city
To the sky I gaze. It's so pretty
In the beach, each, like I'm Nicki
Starship's on the way, who's coming with me?
I'll take a break from the city
To the sky I gaze. It's so pretty

Who? What? Where? Why?
What's wrong? What's right?
Why are we alive?
This is my life
Lost and confused, I don't know what to do
I been tryna see things from another point of view
The waters are never that calm, yeah the waves here are huge
If I don't get a grip, might just cause a typhoon
My spaceship turned to a submarine
I used to be above the sea
Above the Earth, I was hovering
Can't even lie, I was loving me
Now I'm torn in pieces
Indecisive, always seeking
For a long time, I been searching for reasons
Looking for purpose, looking for meaning
No matter how hard I try to live in the moment, shift my focus
It's always haunting my mind, whether or not with prior notice
I know I'm still a child, but you never know exactly when you're going
I don't know what's really wasting my time, but everything's always faster in motion
Everything's going fast
Nothing's meant to last
I'm tryna have a blast, have a good time before I can't
Question, answer, question, answer
This one, that one, on one, no one, soap and cancer
Lost and confused, I don't know what to do
I been tryna see things from another point of view
The waters are never that calm, yeah the waves here are huge
If I don't get a grip, might just cause a typhoon
Who? What? Where? Why?
What's wrong? What's right?
Why are we alive?
This is my life
The lines are blurry
It's making me worried

Stone Walls
04:29
|
|||
Street lights make it look like another sunset
I sleep tight, prepare myself for the next upset
For another day like its last, with some more unrest
I'm distorted, Atlantis may not erupt yet
So I'll open that can of leeches and hope I don't get absorbed
I'm constantly wondering what if I was never born
Till I realize that little would change, I'm nothing more
than a unit of life so small on every scale at my core
Now I close the bottle and hope that it does not explode
Or it could scatter a lot of things that nobody knows
It gets too painful but apparently that's how you grow
Throw it all in the trunk, keep your eyes on the road
Deep down you know that one day you'll crash, but keep on moving
Stay in that lane or get honked at and told you're stupid
You go their way to make it look like you're not clueless
Tough car, that one, till the engines lose it
I've lost my appetite
Aiming for that happy life
I'll give you my brain, will you drown it in formaldehyde?
I've lost my appetite
Aiming for that happy life
I'll give you my brain, will you drown it in formaldehyde?
They can't get through my walls
They can't get through my walls
They can't get through my walls
They can't get through my walls
It makes me strong
It makes me strong
I gotta go on
I gotta go on
But what if I fall?
But what if I fall?
I can never fall
I can never fall
I can never fall
But what if I fall?
But what if I fall?
But what if I fall?

Yet Another Wormhole
03:18
|
|||
I can't seem to find the words
I'm falling again
Real slow
This time I'm on my own
I'm feeling every moment for better or worse
When it heals and when it hurts
And I've never been someone to say much
I feared the day the lights turn another color
But now I know we're seen in spectrums of each other
I'm doing alright, that I can say
But I hate it when I do nothing and call it a day
Rarely do I ever accomplish
But I'm doing my best, that I promise
And I look forward to the day the gears in the clock don't explode from the dust inside
But that's a bit too far fetched to even think about, I can't lie
But maybe I'm made to think that way so it becomes true
As you can tell I can't even make up my mind, I'm so confused
But I'm not that lost, I'll figure this world out
A lot of it feels bigger than being able to do it without a burnout
Or getting overwhelmed by the sheer size of it all
And how it's still so small
This wormhole right here I'm falling in
Is no one time thing
But will the body of these words ever change
Whenever I sing

Square 0
03:44
|
|||
These words are a necklace
Both vanity and contract
If I get too reckless, I could lose contact
A war with only losers
A patriotic switch
The only other choice is to run when there is no stopping things
I could use a diversion, I've arrived very empty to a really crowded mall
I've done a great job at making me feel like nothing at all
For a long time, I wanted peace of mind
That is until I realized
It is not what I really need to find
Maybe it's alright to go back to square 0
We're tryna outrun Barry, but he's one funny guy
He never fails to get his way every single time
Don't know if he hates me or not, or if I hate him or not, I can't even decide
It's the most awkward circus, I've arrived really empty to another crowded mall
I've done a bad job at trying to feel like anything at all
For a long time, I wanted peace of mind
That is until I realized
It is not what I really need to find
Maybe it's alright to go back to square 0
Maybe it's fine
Maybe I'll get by
Maybe it's just life

But the Sharks
04:14
|
|||
Just chillin 47 meters down, it's no horror film
Me and the corals, I'm trying not to get my shoulders filled
Feeling kinda bored of the tides, always holding still
This is all I know, I have yet to know for real
But the sharks
Smells like overkill, I might've cut myself a bit
On the way, nothing crazy, probably some piranhas or a little jellyfish
I gotta keep going, I didn't get started with it for the hell of it
Gotta make sense of everything, maybe try to understand the relative
But the sharks
Take the air out your chest
The head out your neck
Any word out their mouth
Was the last thing they said
They saw a couple issues
Now all they see is red
You'd think it's done to harm
But all it's for is to protect
You don't know your own good, look at you, you're going crazy
There's no yes or no in you, always that stupid maybe
Blame only yourself the moment you decide to blame me
Trust me, all of this is done for your own safety
The sharks
You don't wanna know what happens in the dark
You don't really need to swim that far
You're better off staying where you are
You don't wanna know what happens in the dark
You don't really wanna swim that far
Make the right choice, kid, be smart
Or have a meeting with the sharks

!!!!!!!!

You're in my mind every minute
I hate you but oh do you make this so worth it
Early morning, why won't it be another 24 and many more to come
We've got more than one
It drives me into the bark of a tree every night
Smoke in the water, deeper purple colored veins
It's another day
Either it lasts or it's the last
Just throw it like that
We can't escape its grasp
It's what we have in common
They're all gone, they're not coming back
Flesh and bones under a mask that's in a museum now
We must move on, it's simply over
So get over it, don't think too much
It's all said and done
If it were you
If it were you
If it were you
If it were you
If it were you
If it were you
When it is you
When it is you (I'm consumed by)
When it is you
When it is you (I'm confused by)
When it is you
When it is you (I'm haunted by, I'm haunted by)

Time

Time
Give yourself time
Give yourself time
You just need time
Give yourself time
They say it heals
Give yourself time
Time for you to feel
All there is to feel
The stars are calling
They've missed you
They're all scattered
It's just a matter of time
You've had your share
It's been so simplified, the speculations
How does it feel is all I ask
How does it feel?
Does it feel? Do you feel?
Will I feel?
It's only fair, I guess
Tell me if you can, while my chest is aching
How does it feel beneath the sand?
How does it feel?
Does it feel? Do you feel?
Will I feel anything at all?
One way or another, I'll know
If it's more than just nothing, I'll know

bon voyage
03:03
|

Yeah
I'm somewhere different, just like I promised
I got to the lowest lows, it's only up from here
There's always outer space in all its beauty after being underwater for what feels like forever
Life gave me lemons so it's lemonade in my cup
That's my harvest in there
Gotta give it to the family, to the squad, through everything we stuck together
Everything
And to everyone who's been here from the start, listening, showing love, helping me improve
This is all just the beginning
(yall figure out this stuff on your own I'm not about to write all that)
I made it out of the deep
Can't just get, I gotta keep
All of that talk is too cheap
All of these redpills are just sheep
Your favorite rapper on some joint relief
How you washed up and not even clean?
Top 40 looking like a museum
But I still wouldn't wanna be em
Finally managed to get to the sequel
Now I get lit with all the people
Now I laugh for like no good reason
Maybe it's 'cause I'm glad to be breathing
Funny how kindness is seen as weakness
When the ones playing tough are the weakest
I never idolize a human, those are flawed
Never followed trends, they don't last long
Hands reaching out the screen, I ain't lost
I take every single thing but a loss
Unemployed, still feel like a boss
Drowned in that ocean, now I own it all
It's not Moana, it's more like Jaws
Still that Skechers-rocking kid
Now with a whole lotta hits
And some confidence
Had to learn to live again
Put it out, I win again
That's all I do
Relevance is irrelevant
Unless I run for president
Like I ever will
Working through the stress I'm in
So the results are excellent
It's nothing new
But everyone needs a break time
Chill and have a great time
After late nights
Better now but the same guy
Tryna live a great life
Hope you do too
Lived so many tomorrows but it's never a given
I write what I'm living until I'm not living
And yes I know that I'm somewhere different
But I'm still your typical dude
Float a lot, sometimes I land
But I don't fall, not a chance
Spending all the time I have
With the squad and with the fam
You just beef on Instagram
I can't really be on that
I've seen good and I've seen bad
All that made me who I am
Shouldn't have to stress too much
Over what's not in my hands
There's a lot I have to learn
So much I don't understand
I used to bottle it in and play tough
Now I just let it out on the track
You can call it what you want
I just call it what I am
