Identity Crisis

[Intro]

This, this for the real

[Verse 1]

Now let me try to reconsider, before I start to address

Would I be searching for the answers, that's a part of this test

But that's life, it's a given, now I'm harder to stress

And in my mind, I'm in prison, in my heart, I'm just blessed

Don't respond to whack rappers, I just target the best

I switched out and stayed true, you just marketing less

Can't you fathom when you down and you dark and depressed

This for them folks who like drowning with the sharks and the pets

I'm just a regular nigga

Searching different ways to better my figures

Forever, they bitter

I know it, and I never will give up

Clever endeavors, I treasure, on my dresser is scriptures

What this mean, it's protection, know Baretta is thinking

Cuz I need it, the streets leave you speechless

Our demons, and niggas schemin', no room for a thesis

Life's a struggle that have you puzzled, I'm searching for pieces

I'm planning for better days, where house on the beaches

[Chorus]

Let me tell you about the good

Let me tell you bout the bad

Let me tell you how it should

But it never gonna last

Cuz I'm thinking greatness that we gon' be

My pastor say it, it's all on me

Let me tell you about the good

Let me tell you bout the bad

Let me tell you how it should

But it never gonna last

Cuz I'm thinking greatness that we gon' be

My pastor say it, it's all on me

[Verse 2]

Now I don't know what your incentive is

Or any time of benefit

You think you gon' get out but I can vouch, can see the differences

Of real and fake, and I can feel the hate

But I don't cry or wonder why, I just fill my plate

Cuz we tryna eat, always grinding but honestly

We can't afford to sleep, until my bed got designer sheets

Different mindset cuz climates bringing all kind of heat

And everybody quiet, no denying, I gotta speak

[Chorus]

Let me tell you about the good

Let me tell you bout the bad

Let me tell you how it should

But it never gonna last

Cuz I'm thinking greatness that we gon' be

My pastor say it, it's all on me

Let me tell you about the good

Let me tell you bout the bad

Let me tell you how it should

But it never gonna last

Cuz I'm thinking greatness that we gon' be

My pastor say it, it's all on me

[Verse 3]

This whole year I learned one thing, that life's a killer

To survive through the jungles, had to fight gorillas

And I don't really do collabs cuz I'm twice as iller

So no exchange go around, no Bryson Tiller

Next out the DMV and not the license dealer

And now the pressure's on me, sounds quite familiar

But I'm up for the task cuz my mic is realer

Ironically, your girl left cuz she like a thriller

And I see they so scared cuz I'm getting better

I be speaking to them folks with my written letters

Man I want it bad now, want this shit forever

And every line like damn, man this nigga clever

I'm bragging different, but minimizing is half official

Cuz I believe in unity and that's what rap is missing

My swag terrific, so effortless, pull the baddest bitches

Time to paint a new story cuz my last was vivid
