Everything I Never Could Be

Lyrics
Recordings
Used to pull out the driveway in a Hyundai

Used to treat my music like a runway

I was living, working hella jobs, sleeping like wherever

And smoking every day like it′s a Sunday

I would hit my friends, like, "want to match?"

Yeah, I'm at the crib, you want to come through with a bag?

We could shoot the shit, a shotgun mic with your name on it, yeah

Let the trigger slip, yeah

I′ve just been caught up inside the moment

Tossing and turning and losing focus

Felt a little jaded about my past, had to reflect for a second

And get a grip of the future that I've been stoking

Living way too fast, needed to the roll windows up I guess

I was hot to the touch but feet were frozen

Life's a perfect mess, ain′t no sense in fixing it, I′m blessed

Plus, like every time I try, I get depressed, yeah

But maybe I just try too hard, or care too much, maybe I don't like my boss

Maybe I hate my job, or hate my friends

Or just afraid to admit that sometimes I need my friends

I′ve been a really bad friend, but a really good artist

Like them pictures by the bed of people we don't acknowledge

I got a palette of rhymes, got more lines than Pollock paintings

And some murals in my head I still ain′t demonstrated, wait up

Got a talent to die for, love I'm alive for

If the good die young, I′ll take the place of my father

I need that music to ride for, people to fight for

If the good die young, I hope the bad die alone

I had a couple of phones, had a few different numbers

I had to drop 'em like habits, I had to live me my life

Killed a real good rhyme, but life is never easy

So let a missed opportunity be a chance to teach it

And I can see you reaching, but ain't a thing in my cupboards

I think I turned out pretty good, and that′s word to my mother

You got a closet full of skeletons in a room full of people

Put my problems in my songs and fill up rooms full of people

So that′s the difference my baby, I don't care if I make it

No matter what I be facing, remember all of your faces

′Cause I'm already everything I never could be

Just found a way to build off everything I was, that′s what's up

I just felt like rapping, I just felt like rapping

Just trying to enjoy myself

Yeah
