Cheat Code

[Part I]

[Intro]

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Shouts to Ian's beard, it looks phenomenal

Just, just wonderful shape-up

Look, hold up, hold up

[Verse 1]

Hold up, hold up, what it do?

I been feelin' out of place for like a month or two

I been in and out of spaces I ain't comfortable

I been semi-functional, alcoholic livin'

I been risin', though, despite it

I been hearin' lots of riot in the quiet

I been feelin' like my life is at that point

It's fight or flight, it's pen and mic, it's settle or keep appetite, it's

So much more than what it could've been

All these doors, I gotta push 'em in

I want more, but look around, homie, shit, I got a lot

Would you rather cry in mansion or be singin' in a cot?

Some nights, I be thinkin' thoughts, others I be thinkin' thots

Scrollin', scrollin', scrollin', stomach all in sinkin' knots, but yo

Long as I'm never thinkin' stop

My spirit day-to-day, but he gon' play tomorrow, watch, motherf—

Yeah

[Chorus]

I ain't chasin' rainbows

I live in the rain, life is more than a pot of gold (Pot of gold)

Like the way you hit them angles

But I can't stay around too long, yo, I gotta go (Gotta go)

Ain't nothin' out here a free throw (Free throw)

We could be better, homie, we know (We know)

We been out here lookin' for the cheat code (Cheat code, yeah)

It was in the work all along

[Verse 2]

All along, all along, shit, I couldn't call it, dog

Wall Street to Audobon, problem, problem, problems, dog

All the, all the, all the, smog

Everybody wanna look outside for inner peace, all exempt to our critiques

So much life could be created, but your attitude on condom, dog

Want the fire? Then it's hours that we gotta log

We created players, fuck these lil' style attributes, we bought 'em all

What happens when we got 'em all?

All I know's I got a lot to prove

I'm gon' show I got a lot to lose

This world cold, we got a lot to do with it, tryin' be opportunistic

While they tryin' induce quittin' on honorable missions

Told 'em stop bein' different and they should be indifferent

I said, what if we didn't? If we lived it?

Like we said we would

I think that smile we been lookin' for is in the mud

I was swimmin' in the mud

I was drownin' in the liquor, I was stuck, now I'm up, yeah

Now I'm up, ain't no cheatin' in my blood (Yeah)

Fuck the weakness, can't defeat this type of tough motherfucker, hold up

[Chorus]

I ain't chasin' rainbows

I live in the rain, life is more than a pot of gold (Pot of gold)

Like the way you hit them angles

But I can't stay around too long, yo, I gotta go (Gotta go)

Ain't nothin' out here a free throw (Free throw)

We could be better, homie, we know (We know)

We been out here lookin' for the cheat code (Cheat code)

It was in the work all along

[Part II]

[Verse]

Mirror, mirror, I don't look like me

But would I know me if you showed me? Yeah

Mirror, mirror, I don't look like me

Tell me what you know about it

If you was me, shit, tell me how you'd go about it

Dyin' to eat where the table ain't clean, no, where clothes expensive

And the souls all cheap, though, I been on the offensive

Like y'all don't know me, y'all write your shit in pencil

My pen is my sword and I fence through this fence

You can see me, I'm fightin' so hard to resent you

Wan' taste the air I was conditioned for

So let the breeze blow, blow, blow, I won't indulge my woes

Feel like everybody like me now, but no one love me no more

They all wan' talk to me but don't want me no more

If I don't make it all the way, they gon' punt me for sure

Man, I know it, man, I know it

Reflection in the glass, so I'm pourin', man, I'm pourin'

Tank close to E from all the motion, keep the tears inside

So feel like my stomach rowin' in the storm now

Already tired, but they all applaud my form, how

Can I keep 'em satisfied when I'm worn down?

When deep inside, I crave the life that I've torn down for 'em just a little bit

It's gettin' harder and harder to give a shit

I'm gettin' farther and farther from simple shit

They say you ain't scared of fallin', you scared of jumpin'

Sometimes I'm scared and ashamed of the shit I want, shit
