Ego Trips

[Verse 1]

It's hard to relax on these ego trips that I take with myself

I was young, started a business made mistakes with no help

My accountant said something wrong I wasn't paying myself

Spending money trying to invest it started draining my wealth

I was busy moving

Different states from week to week

The passenger seat recline just to squeeze and sleep

Need for cheese just replaced my need for peace

See friends and thieves

Smoking just to ease the screams damn

Rapping just an excuse of sharing my fеars

I hit 30 and felt like I was behind comparеd to my peers

I was dealing with wrongs that was hard to right

So now I'm 30 plus and feeling like I got a late start in life

Yeah, young intelligent that could speak with class

You could give them the knowledge but you can't teach them class

Up early and I was sleeping last

Cause I'm a leader surrounded by the sheeps where their only dreams is naps

[Interlude]

Uh that's right, that's right

And let me give it to you balanced and with clarity

I'm in a secret place

I keep a sacred space

I spent too many years living too uncomfortably

I'm not having it 'cause I control my destiny

All my time is focused on my freedom now

Now let me give it to you balanced and with clarity

[Verse 2]

Yeah, things in life you got to live with it and accept

I felt like it was things I was missing because of this bread

The sacrifices now got me answering in success

I made a choice to deal with the pain of discipline not regret yeah

My skill at beat box compare to Pete Rock's

Its blood sweat and tears, I cry rivers and bleed clots

Queen spot biggest regret exposing my weak spots

Now its hard for them to hear from me, can't even eavesdrop

Could rack these raps in a bandstand

Fuck a label day I'm making five figures off my Bandcamp

Always had my own connections and my own money

So you'll never hear a record label stole from me

Knowledge is good but the vision made me curious

Cause the greater power is the wisdom from experience

Yeah, you know the pressure was felt

But if you want to be a boss you got to bet on yourself
