People Watching

[Verse 1]

Fresh up out depression got me feeling mello hype

I be sealing feelings like my dealings, hella tight

I don’t like nobody but in public I’m polite

When the money match the motive, I’ma show you what I’m like

Larry David honesty ain’t curbing my replies

Killing those with kindness more deserving of demise

You ever been in company of people you despise

I feel like that every time I take a walk outside

Weekdays run my errands so that I don’t run into you

Asking what I do for work, I don’t care what you do

You moved to the city for the scene that you erase

I moved to New York cause flights is cheap from JFK

I was cool in DC out in PG round the way

Your coolness smell of newness yeah that receipt say today

Old you or the new you keep both you out my space

Glad to see you blossom, do I look like I’m a vase

[Chorus]

Apologies for the way I come across

I hate everything for no reason just because

An introvert at heart, I appreciate the love

Please don’t feel the need to show it, knowing's good enough

Became an entertainer as to hide in plain sight

It’s the one on ones that I succumb to stage fright

My rhymes are without filter in real life I keep it hush

I feel I’ve said enough it's time to step back on the mic

[Verse 2]

I’m not babysitting for adults who live in fear of rejection or can’t deal with being wrong

Or think that going in directions not preferred is something weird

Cause your acceptance to conform is so that you don’t get compared

God forbid, if you’re different you’re a threat because you dared

Well if thats how you feel when I’m my presence say you scared

Please don’t come around me flexing with the energy of feds

Acting like I got wire way you watching what I wear

What’s left that’s unique, we all subscribe to pre-prepared

I used to have a story 'til it leaked and got re-shared

I know it’s not as lonely when you think that someone cares

Exactly why the reason though is still up in the air

I’ve people watched from steps at Union station to the square

And I can’t help but notice what’s distinct's becoming scares

We gladly trade our freedom for convenience cause it’s comfort over quality a burden to think logically

[Chorus]

Apologies for the way I come across

I hate everything for no reason just because

An introvert at heart, I appreciate the love

Please don’t feel the need to show it, knowing's good enough

Became an entertainer as to hide in plain sight

It’s the one on ones that I succumb to stage fright

My rhymes are without filter in real life I keep it hush

I feel I’ve said enough it's time to step back on the mic
