Dribblin'

[Verse 1]

Trepidation escalatin' like a Cadillac

Calendar startin' to look like an hourglass

Chasin' ass, tryna give myself the shallow pass

Raftin' murky moral waters, hard to paddle back

Oh, no, no, boy, I got the range with it

But it's hard when I'm shootin' from the same distance

Look at all the shit I get to be, there's a lot ridin' on me like Porzingis knee

And it's hard to look outside, it all seem like chaos now, now, now

Love my pride, but that shit only slow me down, down, down

In the space where the real can't be defined

And I wonder what I'm down here to find while the loud lead the blind

I'm devoutly inclined to just pass me some time

[Chorus]

I been bouncin' back and forth

Got the world all in my hands

Said the ball is in my court

I don't think they understand

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

[Verse 2]

Dribblin', dribblin' in the same old place

And I been here a minute and all the same old faces

Back-and-forth me like Wimbledon

The reflections of my reflection leave me feelin' simple

It's on me baby, I'm all me, baby

My chest been tight, but I believe I'ma breathe lately

It's fine time to definitely all of these maybes

Time for me to step to me before me play me

I been tryna talk to love

She ain't picked up in a minute now, is it how I'm livin'?

I'm more than what I want

Once I let it go, I'ma get it, I'm worth more than a pendant

This funhouse isn't fun

Mirror been showin' us the wrong things for a while (Yeah)

Lookin' 'round at these adults with all the symptoms of childs (Yeah)

Shit, and all of their convictions be as thin as the smiles (Yeah, yeah)

So I think it's time to show up, hold up, I was froze, now I'm liquid

I'ma flow through the door 'til the floor lookin' drenched

And I think that I finally get it now, I ain't gonna sit it out

Shooters shoot and I can't only dribble now

And I can't ever tell one single fib or doubt in anything I scribble down

I been livin' rental style, think it's time to own me

Fuck anybody that told me the shit I won't be

'Cause they just know I'm one step away from what I'm gon' see

[Chorus]

I been bouncin' back and forth

Got the world all in my hands

Said the ball is in my court

I don't think they understand

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin' (Boy, shoot your shot)

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

[Verse 3]

And I got lots to be grateful for, even the bad

They gon' try to lock me in boxes, I'm free and I'm mad

I'ma leave 'em locked in my body, these demons I have

They ain't gonna stop me from shootin'

Enemies close and these drums is so pure, feel the pain when they roll

But they ain't acoustic as my soul

I'm a real one, I know, I'ma deal with my woes

I'ma peel through the fear, I'ma leave it exposed, oh

[Outro]

Bounce back and forth, got the world in my hands

Said the ball's in my court, don't think they understand

I been dribblin,' dribblin', dribblin', dribblin', dribblin', dribblin', yeah

Bounce back and forth, world in my hands

Ball's in my court, don't think they understand, no

I been dribblin', dribblin', dribblin', dribblin'
