Kind of in my bag as of late
Spliff full of hate, I just ash it away
Lips too numb, I ain’t used to the taste
Been ahead of my days, I just know what it take
I fled to my roots cause them branches would sway
Breeze ain’t shoot straight dog - it led me astray
Caught your head in the oven with a handful of cake
Face red, y’all burnt see you didn’t let it bake
Didn’t let it up when it’s calm, cause I gotta steer my fate
Head up in the clouds and my thoughts in outer space
Clearing hip-high hurdles, you ain’t even keeping pace
Can’t acknowledge no opponent, they ain’t even in the race
They ain’t even made appearance dog, they ain’t showing face
Competition lacking, I ain’t even see a trace
Re-up when you active, see you acting out of place
Cold shoulder, good grace ’til we sleep inside a case
