it ’ s all about the journey
leaving and returning
breaking off , float around
autumn leaves , you and me
our colors of the season
that blend for good reason
break away , night and day
autumn leaves
it ’ s like i reached that point where many folk lives get froze
instead i ’ m busy living most of my childhood goals
never stagnant , forever i ’ ll strive for more
this elevator ’ s barely above the bottom floor
and every level is worthy of exploration
please know that i don ’ t do it for no fake ass admiration
i do it for the challenge i refuse to be complacent
‘ cause positive energy activates constant elevation
peace world
been busy weighing all my options
love to rip it forever but that would defy logic
so before i ’ m done rockin ’ i ’ ma start this nonprofit
to pass on what i love , just because i can ’ t stop it
man you know me
transforming from a youngin ’ to an og
and some day our new shit will be an oldie
a true classic never dies at all son
i ’ m learning how to smile in autumn
it's kinda awesome
it ’ s all about the journey
leaving and returning
breaking off , float around
autumn leaves , you and me
our colors of the season
that blend for good reason
break away , night and day
autumn leaves
so many years paintin' our pain with these words
illustratin' our struggle through songs y'all might ’ ve heard
if it ’ s true that a picture is worth a thousand words
amount i ’ ve used sharing my struggle has been absurd
see what i ’ m sayin'
so many tools to choose 'bout give in to temptation
my career ’ s duration spent in recording studios
meanwhile the art studio has been vacant
honestly it ’ s home to my first creation
my very first love , it appears that she ’ s patient
still got it , guess it was layin' dormant inside of me
time to let it out and then hang it up in a gallery
maybe the next time that i hear from the smithsonian
it ’ ll be for my art they ’ ll be beggin ’ for me to loan ’ em one
and that ain ’ t far fetched at all son
when you ’ re learning how to smile in autumn
kinda awesome
it ’ s all about the journey
leaving and returning
breaking off , float around
autumn leaves , you and me
our colors of the season
that blend for good reason
break away , night and day
autumn leaves
been many places i ’ m plannin' on seeing some more
top of the list , the very place my people were born
that ’ ll be bliss , plan to bring the queen i adore
might return to bk when i finish raising my family
enjoy the quiet life but kinda miss the insanity
difference is i can dip when the stress is compelling me
and catch a flight anywhere when the spirits propelling me
you ain ’ t telling me nada 'bout life being over
got youngins watching gettin' psyched 'bout getting older
wiser than i was and i ’ m freer than i been
got a lot of love , there ’ s no end to my ends
dream come true , then the next one begins
a few fail through , overshadowed by my wins
and i ’ m still hungry for more son
learning how to smile in autumn
beyond awesome
it ’ s all about the journey
leaving and returning
breaking off , float around
autumn leaves , you and me
our colors of the season
that blend for good reason
break away , night and day
autumn leaves
