Album Cover Dim the Lights

Dim the Lights

Shit amazing, I came a long way out the gutter like in the basement

I remember times when I was everybody′s favorite

Unsung hero my story is missing pagesUse to being humble, my attitudes more blatant; if I told you what I've been through would you believe the statement

Pass few years hit my lowest like hitting pavement

Couple bad chicks wanna cuff me with no patience

My heart ice cold and it′s empty my mind vacant

God will win this war but this battle belong to Satan

Bust a couple moves had to switch up the location

Going O.T. I ain't talking a vacation

Some family did me dirty their actions like sanitation

A nigga unbothered reminding you that I'm complacent

Pan-seared steak and you know you gotta filet it

Tryna pen a hit but I′m staring at blank pages

Smoke ′Forbidden Fruit' now I′m intuned with the Matrix

Niggas out of character I peep all the changing faces

Got some day ones that are willing to catch cases

Trading court arraignments for some funeral arrangements

Please dim the lights when I'm in this studio singing

...Must′ve forgotten who the fuck I was

Or simply lost track of who I fucking trust

That boy reckless, how many do you know could pick up right where they left it?

3 year absence and still could sound so impressive

Couldn't leave this shit guess I′m a bit over-obsessive

Fresh off the bench focused showing signs of aggression

Had to calm down with good energy too excessive

Just a small price to be paid for being expressive

...I can't even lie... I lost a lot in such a short period of time

Bunch of dudes had to prove that their strength is in numbers

But it's whatever though I′ll break em down one at a time

Lost my drive to even jot down a couple of rhymes

My father died from overdosing on doing those lines

Praying for my sister and my little brother too

Addiction is out of pocket, demons critical

Selfish peers spend my earnings when I′m going through it

Can careless about your clubs bitch I'm going through it

My emotions′ running high it get the best of me

I'm only human not perfect keep the stress from me

My lady tripping like I got time to be unfaithful

Hate the fact she′s insecure damn the shit is painful

I ain't concerned with other broads with you I′m always grateful

Just tryna bring some peace to you and some food on the table

...I swear I could never sweat shit

I swear I love the fact that the critics are all skeptics

I swear I heard them laugh at pain on some Kevin Hart shit

I swear that they can all kiss my ass they will regret this

I ain't gotta say much hear my pain in my verses

I'm drunk swervin′ contemplate if this shit is a burden

Look... same me but a smarter version

Like a virgin, give no fucks for you niggas it′s curtains
