LYRICS:
It feels like I’ve been living in a matrix but I gotta figure out a way to say this
Convey something worth knowing to be famous
Stargaze repeatedly until I see a picture of my face
Wrote a scripture in an album
Dropped that liquor on the outcome
Poured myself a bitter glass of breadcrumbs
Cause I’m tired of pretending to be something that isn’t me
I gotta lotta people tryna tell me how to be successful
And I gotta lotta people actin like they had always been helpful
Showing up tenfold like it wasn’t years ago cause I 
Never fit in
Never felt like I’m getting what I give but that’s the price of the life that I always had to live
Can’t stop
Won’t stop
Time’s running out on the clock
Consider me an anomaly
Wordplay agility
Rhyme scheme fluidity
Move so swiftly on every delivery
5-tone dominos
Checkered victory
By the 3rd round I’m making history 

I don’t wanna wait anymore
I don’t wanna stay any longer
I don’t wanna miss
I wanna score
I don’t wanna be poor walking out this door

I was walking in the streets like it meant life to me
619 to 323
Slumped some bums 
740
Fed a bunch
951
Swingin guns
Never 911
And they’re always wonderin how I stay so hungry to get sum
I keep on by myself on this journey to heaven’s hell
Could never sell my soul even after sitting in this cell
Nobody’s talking about their dreams no more
A fantasy wrapped up in a bow-tied locked out door
People live in patterns
People live with recognition
People live within a series of prediction
Addictions
Caffeinated justification
Nicotine feen overstimulation
Pharmaceutical hyper prescription
I hear all they say
Never meant much to me
Lead me out, follow me, or get out the way
Matters most when it’s rough as you lay in the dust
If you ain’t dead yet (It's never enough)

I don’t wanna wait anymore
I don’t wanna stay any longer
I don’t wanna miss
I wanna score
I don’t wanna be poor walking out this door
