Lyrics:


Tryna keep track of the days that I waste so I never look back,
Like a rat in the cage tryna race from my past,
as I pass what my pace was chased by a lap,
and the fact that I made off with all that I have in a short time span in my life makes me feel cool....
and I ain't partied too much most nights since I was back at school.

And I swore that I'd give back shit when life was good.
And I wore my sins so I've been misunderstood.
And I'm told when I'm old that I'll wish life just stayed put,
plays a toll on your soul when you push,
out the mold, take control of your roots, but I did what I could.
Now these people wanna tell me how it looks
From a third guys' perspective, birds eye when next to his, worst side, addresin' it, first time I've ever been, worried 'bout my presence, I heard y'all offended when I vent.
When I vent my words in the cadence of a verse
so just send your worst, indicating where it hurts
But I've been through WORSE, and I made it what it's worth.

And my momma said to write my love in songs...
I kept my faith, I trust my fate, I give my all to God.
Still in the left lane, still signing my name, and life is an Autobahn.


Audible, audible, call the bull, 
when i get off of work, wander the wonderful world with a lot to do,
offer you all that i got, and i've gotta move mountains, impossible,
out the youth fountain i climb with a lotta school debt,
and indebted to all my regrets
but the list getting shorter as goals getting met
so you better work harder, do all that you can
from the land of the water, feel already wet
but i stand like a martyr to all that i've said
set my plans to move farther each bar that i hit


(chorus)

I coulda been so damn high, from writing lows man
coulda been so damn bright, get with the program
i can't wait my whole damn life to get this moment,
so i won't let it go, no, i will not be frozen (x2)

Coulda Been (prod. Alexander Lewis)

(Lyrics)

I want a canopy, on the west side of Savannah Beach,
to watch the setting sun, while my funds are stacking up annually.
To pen a masterpiece, I used to need a can of tree,
now pass the pad for peace, to get past my latest catastrophes.
My plan to be the man could not withstand all these planetary confinemenets,
Kept cool like sanitary devices.
And I probably shoulda studied some actuarial science,
Instead of vocabulary to help him with where he's rhyming.
An island off of the coast for me to post up for the night,
and when I die, I dream of Heaven, with my grandpa by my side,
and when the tide's come, we huddle up, and pack it up inside,
and light a fire in my soul to match the candle in the sky.
Cyanide in my cup, with these Shakespearean monologues,
for nobody but Beats, we eat show money up on the blogs.
Flow money for free, just hoping love is a counterpart.
What you get when you take Vinny out the Entourage?
Probably just a shitty actor.
It felt atomic at the time until it didn't matter.
Got me drifting in a distant pasture, drinking in the sun,
and pray to Heaven, I'm the 1 percentage left so I don't miss the rapture.
Went from kissin asses, to getting kickback,
from ass-kicking rhythms I hit em with in these slick raps.
It's the brashness... 
The hero in the glasses...
The weirdo tryna veer through all he had, until he has THIS

Place they call Heaven on Earth.
But I feel the rain coming down on me harder.
And I just know that pain's felt by every one worthy.
And so I feel this strain from the world on my heart (and I don't know what to do about it).

Erik passed away the year before I graduated.
And I still blazed some haze that summer, huh.
Ahsim passed away on freshman year's St. Patty's Day, and...
That night, I've never been drunker.
I always wonder when my time will come
Don't regret what I did, as much as what I've left undone.
Don't think as hard about the people in my life who I let slip through the cracks,
As those I wonder whatta happened with if given the chance.
I never dance unless I'm seven deep.
And this the eighth now.
That's why I'm playing Evergreens, and dancing from the waist down.
I grew up in a city that I always felt was way out,
But fire, hell, and rain can find a way to knock the gates down,
No matter the place you call 'escape'...
just smile where you're at, because a mile out from that
Is probably rain clouds.
So you could play the safe route,
But every single day a life is taken, while you're here don't be complacent, I just hope you find that PLACE

Place they call Heaven on Earth.
But I feel the rain falling down on me harder.
And I just know that pain's felt by anybody worth anything at all.
So I feel the rain from this world on my heart (and I don't know what the fuck to do about it).

Sometimes sunshine still shines when it rains.
