lyrics

Shooting hoops with my cuz had me thinkin bout life
Not on some doom and gloom, rather what I'm proud of
Even if I'm not always seeing eye to eye with the man above
Any time it's conversation we both comin wit the love

The place I'm in at the moment is somewhat complicated
Tryna talk it out with myself is getting outdated
And you'll never see me talk it out with TED
Cause at that point I might as well be left on read

Look, scattered dots on the ceiling representing my thoughts
Different sizes of red for different levels of pains
Whatever's left white shows any sort of gains
If you could even think of gains while cleaning up remains

Ok maybe I lied about going without doom and gloom
Can you really blame me for wanting to go so soon?
Prolly better than being some corporation goon
Getting drown out under the U.S monsoon

They got us doin anything to make ends meat
Overpricing everything we wanna use to retreat
Not caring for us until we on the verge of defeat
Cause the ones at the top got the whole world to eat

Most world leaders fall under that umbrella I threw
And it'd be foolish to deny what's already been proven true
Unless you one of those who just lets them do what they wanna do
Then I hope you'll be havin fun when your face turns blue
After their done with you they'll make sure that every single one of your teeth are new

I thought of all of this in the span of one shootaround
Before a game where I honestly got clowned
But I don't regret the peace of mind that would surround
Despite the fact that I couldn't chase a rebound

I thought of this moment as the anchor form the chaos
A memory for when things fall apart, I can lay on
A callback to the roots that I was built upon
To come back to earth within a pond as a small swan

I think a lot for someone who has so much time ahead of them
Maybe all the animosity and doomer thoughts come from that stem
It's a part of me I should probably condemn
But we al know that it's pressure that creates a gem
