Hmm, yeah

Hol′ up, I don't know what′s... got me looking to the past when... I'm moving forwardI might slip up on my ass, but I never fold up

I might pull up late to class, but I always show up

Yeah even when it's dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)

And even when it′s dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)

And I know, I know, I know I′m a mess

I don' made a mess now

Caught me slippin on the right

Whippin from the left now

I been all up off my game

Young, dumb and stressed out

Might not hit a triple-double

But I put my best out

Yeah even when it′s dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)

And even when it's dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)

And I know, I know, I know how it goes

I need to work on my soul (Soul)

I need to work on my goals (Goals)

I need to balance my patience

Work on my pace and empty my woes (Ya)

I need to feel my emotions (Ya)

I need a grip on my focus (Ya)

I need to know what I′ve chose is not just for me

And nurture my closest (Ya)

I need to work with my father

Too many curses I harbor

I need a break from my habits

Cleanse of my spirit

Fill up my chalice (Woo)

I need to know what I offer

Show me a way to go farther

Peace of mind [piece of mine], it's gon′ cost and

And I've been fuckin' up for a quite a while

Don′t know how to hide it

I′ve been dealin' with some problems by myself in silence

I ain′t always at my best

Even when I'm smillin′

I might lose it under stress

But I always find it

Yeah, even when it's dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)

And even when it′s dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)

And time, and time, and time, and time, and time

And time again, I gotta turn around and tell myself

Life's too short for the cards I dealt to decide my health

The mind might help when the spine might jelq from the limelight, welp

Will I lose sight? Only time might tell

Does anybody feel lost on the planet?

Peel back layers to my soul like, hol' up

I pray for the days when the new Wayne tapes had me on ketchup mayonnaise don cannon

Ain′t no ceilings

′Ye was killing

'09 Drake had me in my feelings

Before 4:44, Hov made millions

Number one off Empire State Building

A state of bliss coming in the air, no Phil &′

If I ever had a doubt, momentum killed it

And you can have all that you want

Heaven or Hell?

Choices on choices (Ya)

Voices on voices (Ya)

Teeter totter through the piece & drama

Feed & water spirit while my ego wonders

I be chill pillin' yet I′m hardly somber

Caught between the Art of War and Dalai Lama (Woo)

I need an end to my ways

I need an end to my ways

Yea, uh, this ain't the ending of days

This is a pivotal page

Decisions on decisions

Am I a vessel of truth

Or as crooked as any politician?

I′m from where niggas don't have a pot to piss in

Mama's in the kitchen

Rent is no forgiveness

Reeboks on the extensions

We got good intentions

Circumstances changing

Devil′s start to clenchin′

Toe-to-toe with demons

Angels on the benches

30 on the clock

Clutching through the trenches

Which side, which side?

I could be lost, delivered, deprived

Sever my ties, decide to be blind

Or open my eyes, yea

Yeah even when it's dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)

And even when it′s dark outside (Whoa, whoa, whoa)
