20 Things

Got 20 things all up in my head
Gonna be another 20 and you’ll end up with the rest
Woke up with another vision
Gonna take an effect
But I got an alter ego that I gotta protect
You from, never introduced him
Running out of time, but it’s all part of an illusion
I can write bars, I could mass produce em
But I would never be giving you any evolution
Studied books that I’m not renewing
New people all around me no one to influence
Killing bad moods to reduce pollution
My mama be wondering if my future’s ruined
Kind of upset, begging what’s next, feeling like a suspect
In a state of unrest
I’ve been contemplating pills to just calm me down
But if I was looking for a job I could never pass a drug test
I cannot focus on little things
You can’t belittle me
Check my delivery, what
Hand me that page and a pen I be scribbling
Cripple my synergy
Turn you to smithereens
Caution to the wind I’m an anemometer
Never see it straight, I see an enemy
You sea anemone
Set the pain aside, I’ve been a fiend to myself
Can’t agree with my thinking, didn’t mean to melt
Jotting my thoughts, but I’m in too deep
Floating back up to the top of my own mental piece
My own mind is a gentle beast
My, oh my, how it crippled up my entity
Seven cigarettes I pack into my flow
Set the meter centimeters higher till it overloads
Flow is ice, snowing, you might need to shovel the road
And if you’re sinking you can jump in the boat
They don’t see I’m sinking they just enter the boat
The water’s deep, the water’s up to my throat
Cause everyday I’m at the end of my rope
They don’t see it, they don’t see it, they don’t see it, no
Got 20 things all up in my head
Gonna be another 20 and you’ll end up with the rest
Woke up with another vision
Gonna take an effect
But I got an alter ego that I gotta protect
You from, never introduced him
Running out of time, but it’s all part of an illusion
I can write bars, I could mass produce em
But I would never be giving you any evolution
Started making bank at my 9−5
Old friends showing up like «hi, surprise»
I’m a feisty guy, but I’m nice, so it might be wise
To back down, fore I light the skies
Distress, I can twist up your neck
Leave the rest up to guess
Show up in a private jet just to pick up the check
So you want some respect
Homie there ain’t much left
Everybody changing like bait and switch
I need to change my clique
Heart is sinking like a navy ship
Next thing you know, I’ll get a message from a crazy chic
Telling me I need to raise her kid?
Homie that is where the danger is
Patience razor thin
Time is running and I’m chasing it
Someone please tell the clocks to stop
No enamel on my brain so I watched it rot
Give me your worst and I’ll rip you straight
I’ll put you into the earth and spit a verse right on top of your grave
Itching to drop this, it was worth the wait
You dropped a demo and I heard it break
Stand it? I couldn’t understand two words
Tellement bidon et il est toujours
This song was dope before I laid the verse
Dead Silent, but I got a way with words
They don’t see I’m sinking they just enter the boat
The water’s deep, the water’s up to my throat
Cause everyday I’m at the end of my rope
They don’t see it, they don’t see it, they don’t see it, no
Got 20 things all up in my head
Gonna be another 20 and you’ll end up with the rest
Woke up with another vision
Gonna take an effect
But I got an alter ego that I gotta protect
You from, never introduced him
Running out of time, but it’s all part of an illusion
I can write bars, I could mass produce em
But I would never be giving you any evolution
Got 20 things all up in my head
Gonna be another 20 and you’ll end up with the rest
Woke up with another vision
Gonna take an effect
But I got an alter ego that I gotta protect
