Danny Brown - 30

(Verse 1)
Yeah, look, they told me to trust the process, I heard it a million times
It echoes in the back of my mind, a ghost of a thousand rhymes
They say, "Just hold on, kid, your time is coming, it's on the line"
But every day feels like I'm running, and there's no finish line.
The mirror shows a stranger now, I don't recognize his eyes
He's wearing a smile I don't own, a master of disguise
The pressure's building up inside, a dam about to break
And I'm just watching the cracks appear, for goodness' sake.
(Chorus)
'Cause I've been giving pieces of me, and all I get is dust
I'm building a house on a sinking foundation of 'trust'
I gave you the keys to my fortress, and you just let it rust
Told me to open up my chest, and now it's filled with disgust.
They say it's easy, just believe, but I don't know who to trust
'Cause every time I let someone in, they turn my heart to rust.
(Verse 2)
The whispers in the hallway, they're not even subtle now
Pointing fingers, judging me, but they don't know how
I've fought the demons in my head, the ones that hold me down
The ones that tell me I'm not good enough, the king without a crown.
I put on a show for the world, pretending I'm okay
But inside, the gears are grinding, I'm falling apart each day.
I write these words in the dark, my only friend is the page
A confession of my struggle, a prisoner in this cage.
(Chorus)
'Cause I've been giving pieces of me, and all I get is dust
I'm building a house on a sinking foundation of 'trust'
I gave you the keys to my fortress, and you just let it rust
Told me to open up my chest, and now it's filled with disgust.
They say it's easy, just believe, but I don't know who to trust
'Cause every time I let someone in, they turn my heart to rust.
(Bridge)
Is it me? Is it them? Is this just how the world is?
A constant test of faith, a series of broken promises?
I'm tired of the fakes, the shallow words, the empty lies
I'm looking for an anchor, but I'm lost beneath the skies.
I'm closing the doors now, locking them from the inside
'Cause the only person I can truly trust is the one I hide.
(Outro)
Yeah, the one I hide.
Trust... what's that, anyway?
(Fades out)

Danny Brown is a true rap original. His songs are as profane as they are profound, mixing heartfelt personal narratives and razor-sharp social commentary with hedonistic party beats and hysterical, pitch-black punchlines. His personal style is as unique as his music, an inspiration to high fashion designers and legions of devoted fans alike. Danny's Fool's Gold debut XXX
was a free release that snowballed into the year's most critically-lauded rap album, landing the Detroit hero on the covers of The Fader, XXL and Wax Poetics, and follow-up single "Grown Up" was a viral video smash that brought Danny an mtvU Woodie Award and millions of YouTube views.

Now, after two solid years of universal acclaim and non-stop touring around the globe, Danny jumps from "artist to watch" to undeniable icon with his magnum opus, Old. This emotionally-charged concept album is an intoxicating mix of Danny at his most experimental AND most accessible, balancing hip-hop grit with electronic club sonics and much, much more. Featuring guest appearances from A$AP Rocky, Schoolboy Q, Freddie Gibbs, Purity Ring, Charli XCX, and more over production from the likes of A-Trak and Rustie, Old is a psychedelic portrait of rap's most vital and exciting new star.
