Interlude (Pay Intention Pt. 1)

[Interlude]

I had decided that 2020 would be my year

But then the weather changed

It was a storm I felt coming

And I knew I had a lot to give in the new climate

But while my rhymes were on, my mind took me out of the present

Led me home to the stresses that threw me offbeat

My woman, my family, and the heartbeat of the music loved me anyway

And I realized that the gratitude for that reality was the foundational blank page to write the story on

But that alone wasn't enough

I doubted a lot of the love outside that circle

It felt like rhetoric

I needed to be told today and now through actions that somethin' just couldn't give

The confidence I had about the year ahead was replaced with uncertainty

I didn't know if I was ready to be who I was wherever I was going to be

I didn't know if I could handle it
