[Verse 1]
Blamed on myself for disappearing, next pop will commence the hurt
The more I think on it, maybe they pay me to be an introvert
Some days will be aight, need somebody to pinch me first
Silly me for thinking eventually he was gon' put me first, but that’s life
Wish to this day, I could've got some advice
No parental advisories on this roller coaster called life
Some understand it would suffice, success comes with a price
To be honest, I love thе game, but wouldn't pick the door twice
Ran out of room to put my stripеs, the room would sit you nice
Without the rules, you live in strife, selling your soul for the views and some likes
Fuck is a difficult problem to the professor?
A domination went cold without the pressure
Don’t get left over feeling entitled to extras
Them youngsters, they'll knock your head off, what you gon' do with a necklace?
You got two choices out here, respectful or reckless
Unless it's pertaining the money, I'm out the exits
[Chorus]
Struggle just a part of the phase, no sense to panic
Drain your fear away, my heart's on the blade
I kept it solid, but the love I had is starting to change
Knowing they won't get satisfaction 'til you parked in a cage
Daily news, front page
Read all about it
When it just feels better when you doubt it
High powered, this stick around, you allow it
Nothing should come between this thing of ours, uh (High powered)
[Verse 2]
Put it by my lonely, it’s overrated, the need to friend
Non-believers turn to believers just to question me again
More that I get to know you, the less we need to pretend
You folded in me, imploded the recipe for the end
My prayers come with some questions like, "Why me, Lord?"
Like is this the way my life is supposed to be or was it detoured?
Holding shit in myself so know no one I trust to lean on
More I think on it, I’d die before I was reborn
Never go get too comfortable
The minute you think that you can't be faded, this life will humble you
Need perseverance, but hating, jealousy’s jumping you
Victory's when you make it out anyway and the trumpets blue
I hate the constant celebrity love, the art
Get with the times, that's what they telling me, constantly drug apart
They don't despise you, yet motherfuckers will stalk
Give it some years, fickled-ass peers and phony cheers (Cheers)
[Chorus]
Struggle just a part of the phase, no sense to panic
Drain your fear away, my heart’s on the blade
I kept it solid, but the love I had is starting to change
Knowing they won't get satisfaction 'til you parked in a cage
Daily news, front page
Read all about it
When it just feels better when you doubt it
High powered, this stick around, you allow it
Nothing should come between this thing of ours, uh (High powered)
[Verse 3]
Don't trust the money, niggas will stick around just to use you when things get ugly
Cold shoulders get shrugged on the usual, probably schemin'
Knowing the consequences is brutal, then end up leaving
My family's compromised, it gets crucial
I love my fans, but sometimes I just wish they can understand
Try on my shoes for a minute, show me how you would play my hand
When it's rigged, it's hard to counter-act politics with the plans
To create the narrative that I ain't doing all that I can
Well, can you give me some space? Your opinions need some breaks
I value my level of sanity over any rap race
The vape is not really what's in question, but how long will he last?
The grimey tenses survive, the nice guys finish last
Funny how vision's 20/20 looking in the past
Pull down a ride in the fast life, knowing it when you crash
They did me dirty, made a decision to laugh
Uppers and downers, favorite collision to grasp
[Chorus]
Struggle just a part of the phase, no sense to panic
Drain your fear away, my heart's on the blade
I kept it solid, but the love I had is starting to change
Knowing they won't get satisfaction 'til you parked in a cage
Daily news, front page

When it just feels better when you doubt it
High powered, this stick around, you allow it
Nothing should come between this thing of ours
High powered
