Listen, I had to learn to stop cutting corners
Summers getting shorter and the years be flying by when you a stoner
Spent my life a floater, carrying the weight that's on my shoulders
Rather not show up, funny how it's harder getting sober
I was on the border, tryna hide behind my vices
Thought this was the nicest, now I'm here fighting off a crisis
But I keep it silent while I'm slowly dealing with the violence
No one knows you trying, all they see is every time I'm wildin'
Been tryna stay in pocket while burning out like a rocket
Speeding inside the cockpit, it feel like you got no options
Niggas be tryna lock in, addiction always come knockin'
Every time you get poppin' bad habits just make you stop it
Fading away, substances taking the pain
Can't see a dim in your flame, thinking it's cleaning the stains
Lost in an ocean of waves, feeling the way that it sway
Knowing I'm needing a change, really I'm fiending to stay
You give me joy like a fountain
Forgive me if I stay
Your touch, so strong, like a mountain
Forgive me if I stay
At times it feel just like the world against you
But it's really in your mind, your response need some fine tuning
But that clock is always ticking and the distance gets further
Better put that effort in or friends faces get blurry
I was a child of love but work got into play, won't hang my jersey
Sent him up above, and I ain't even make the ceremony
Present day, the same story, dream chasing and ignoring
Special moments in this life, can't get it back; too busy touring
Lit a pack until I'm soaring was my practice, back to back
Double clouds will hide the facts but when I land I still felt poor and
Had to get them vices up, then it ignited something for me
When you really want some shit to change you gotta go all for it
Put the spliff down, was going ham before, I'm on my shit now
Everything I got within's enough, no longer in doubt
God created us with pure perfection, don't throw the towel
Now every time I see a boy reflection, I gotta smile
You give me joy like a fountain
Forgive me if I stay
Your touch, so strong, like a mountain
Forgive me if I stay
