THE CITY Lyrics

Invoking the vision
I know I was missing
Too far, feeling distant
I don't hate the city
But don't see growth in it
Pissed off, and pretending
The locals are hating
The moves that I'm making
Disregarding thoughts
I knew I would make it
Alone in this world
Impregnated girls, with no morals or goals
Just faking, it shows
Missed calls from above
I won't mention the sky
Above resides in the mind
Subconscious sublime
Below you'll falter behind
The vision divided my people
Went missing, and founded believers
Forced on the ground, we ain't equal
I can't even breathe with my people
Too many opps side-eyeing
The devil is evil, met her in the regal
It was 2003, no eyes, still I could see you
She asked why I praise the Lord, he ain't coming to save you
I said I don't need saving, I need peace in my mental
Delusional voices, imprinted thoughts, it's not that simple
I treat my body like I'm God and cherish the temple
Don't wait to even the odds, that Karma will get you
People living out façades that I don't relate to
I don't listen to their lies
Just doing what I'm meant to
Public service agent, helping ones you don't care for
But, who gon care for me?
I'm done being careful
I'm nothing like I was before
Left my doubts and stood up tall
Don't ask me what's behind that door
Demons, restless, tired soul
Can't trust myself anymore
Can't trust myself anymore
Fuck am I saying huh?
Me is who I trust
Keeping it going, can't get enough
Think I'm addicted
Revealing off scripted
Don't talk, I just listen
Sharing the vision
To all of my children
Someone gotta do it
I'm here for the mission
Already proved it
Making a difference
Invoking the vision
I know I was missing
Too far, feeling distant
I don't hate the city
But don't see growth in it
Pissed off, and pretending
The locals are hating
The moves that I'm making
Disregarding thoughts
I knew I would make it
Alone in this world
Impregnated girls, with no morals or goals
Just faking, it shows
Missed calls from above
I won't mention the sky
Above resides in the mind
Subconscious sublime
Below you'll falter behind
The vision divided my people
Went missing, and founded believers
Forced on the ground, we ain't equal
I can't even breathe with my people

Invoking the vision
I know I was missing
Too far, feeling distant
I don't hate the city
But don't see growth in it
Pissed off, and pretending
The locals are hating
The moves that I'm making
Disregarding thoughts
I knew I would make it
Alone in this world
Impregnated girls, with no morals or goals
Just faking, it shows
Missed calls from above
I won't mention the sky
Above resides in the mind
Subconscious sublime
Below you'll falter behind
The vision divided my people
Went missing, and founded believers
Forced on the ground, we ain't equal
I can't even breathe with my people
Too many opps side-eyeing
