Yeah, uh
I can worry, I can overthink things
That's exactly when I tend to wanna drink things
Tend to wanna smoke things
'Til I realized there's no thing outside of me
That kinda helped me grow wings
Listen up, I think this is dope
To love's very different than to own
Let that sink in
I grew my hair, but never lost my J Dilla vibe
Airplane mode, don't kill the vibe
I had to remind people I was still alive
I had to remind people of what's real inside
Yeah, yeah, I'm the "I Took a Pill in" guy
But even more beautiful with no pill inside
Feel the vibe?
I wanted to be Deion, I was more Wojciechowski
My friends gon' hit the club, I tell 'em go without me
There's a lot that these people don't know about me
I always been that dude though, no Lebowski (stupid)
Old friends never tell me that I seem different
Ashamed of the way that I used to treat women
Objectifying
Embarrassed, but I'll never lie
Mac is dead, many more are dead inside
Hideous thoughts in this head of mine
I'll choose different ones
Life hit me in the face, but I didn't run
Perhaps Michigan'll be the place my kids are from
Ram Dass is the man I got the vision from
It's alright, yeah, uh
It's alright, yeah
Uh, ayy
I donated all my Jordans, didn't do a post
They were taking up the space that I needed to grow
That was a Sage Francis line; I stole it
But there was no better way to say that
There is no future, no time
Look at yourself, don't be so bovine
Courage used to be something that I couldn't find
People scared to look at their dreams so they look at mine, yeah
Whatever makes you feel good inside (it's alright)
I was in the gym the other day in Los Angeles
And I saw all of the beautiful bodies
Running on the treadmills, staring at the screens
And it reminded me of hamsters running on the wheel
And that's when I really decided right then and there
I'm not gon' be a hamster on a wheel
I'm gon' do it
Twitter is apoplectic
Squirrels with acorns
I said it before
Ships are safe in the harbor, but that ain't what ships are made for
I say I am not my haircut, I'm not my body
Not my clothes, I'm something much more beautiful
Deeper than even I know
Took me 30 years to wake up and write this song
Took me 30 years to realize nothing is wrong
