[Verse 1]
Rich nigga problems
Where's the connection if liberals is without 'em?
I've been a splintered soul for so long
I've been double-dutching my thoughts
Looking at these Venetian walls like asylums
Saint Lyricarion's, it was in hell, turbulence didn't pan well
My latest panic attack suffocated my damn self
Trying to count to ten backwards, fumbling for them aspirins
Sweating religiously, moving on fidgety, my actions
Got me feeling caged in, days out, days in, waiting
My shoulders about to tip over, how many worlds I'm holding?
Wait a minute, mama calling me, she need all of me
Doctors say my uncle 48 hours, hit his arteries, now at 24
I didn't even know hе had cancer, nobody really know
Now you tell mе I gotta answer like right before the show?
My father's incompetent, running from tragedy
Always hesitant to respond to shit
I'm trying to console my mother, her younger brother was my twin
On my first album cover, we made history
I ascend generations of a newfound best
Now I'm trying to fly his body back home before soundcheck
I'm on the phone with funeral homes, private banks and strangers
Hoping to transfer 50,000 for the arrangements
A picture came through my text, him in his final moments
Life smothers you, don't it? Pain is only a bonus
Being in Europe that day was the most foreign to me
24 countries away, but the bill was forward to me
Still I gotta save face, see, I'm a professional
This life I acquired didn't come with confessionals
Man, emotions is pouring in
Belle gave me a towel, was hoping she didn't see it
The audience getting loud, they want Kendrick Lamar to give him a show
Superman in the flesh, I'm walking out and nobody knows
[Chorus]
I need to vent
My feelings don't collab no more, I've been low
Yeah, I need to vent
I feel like the wall's closing in, but then again
Vent
How long can I hold it all in? It makes more sense just to vent
Just vent
[Verse 2]
Whitney say I specialize on how to detach
Dave say I know exactly when to react
My momma say I work to much and need to relax
But I remember me and my siblings in the back with no vents
AC blown out, transmission slipping
We on the way to governments house, welfare recipients living month to month, show me how
Coping mechanisms was the right way to go about
Cause all I'm looking at is a house full of hard liquor
The family drink the pain away in front of my yard nigga, nobody communicate less that shit through a bottle
We call it numb numb juice
That medication was vital
But I refuse to put my feelings on a stand mad dawg in my hand
Repeating my words every second so that you understand
Repeating my words every second so that you understand
So that you understand
Repeating my words every- (Pass me that can)
If you not sober than you just apart of the culture
But who can? A nigga deal with the moment I need the closure
Remaining resilient, so you can have a crunch
If I had defendants, your whole life be fucked
