[Chorus]
They think I’m insane, you tell me I’ve changed
Yeah somedays it feels like I’m holding my breath
I went out of my way keeping you safe
You don’t know half of the secrets I’ve kept
Living with shame, from all of this pain
So what can I gain, when nothing is left?
Yeah, huh
What can I gain when nothing is left?
[Verse]
I come from a place of hardship, that’ll make you heartless
Stare out into space at the blazing scarlet
Sky so long til’ it fades to starlit, as I gaze the farthest
Black holes form, can’t escape the darkness
Whoo! I am not a man, a martian
But I channelеd the pain and became an artist
Quit now no I rathеr not
I done came too far to go back to rock bottom
With hand-me-down clothes
My family got, a pan or pot to piss
We ain’t have a lot but I’ll be
Damned if I’m a laughing stock
Had to elevate above it like an astronaut
But we ain’t blasting off no, I’ll blast the Glock
And leave a hole in your apple like a Macintosh
Catch a body with the pen, gotta be a sin
Even God must’ve wanted me to win when the odds were slim
Hit lottery and went against everyone who doubted me
I’m probably the hottest in the ring, ding ding
What’s your best shot? Took it on the chin
There’s no men alive on my level, better get in line
Bet I grind many times more when I’m energized
99 percent of everybody getting genocide
F-f-f-for real though, the ill flows, I killed those, far as skill goes
I’ma savage, deal blows, I willed my way up the ladder
Real close to the goal, but I gotta slay the dragon
Bilbo like Baggins, I cackle and laugh, inhale smoke
Relax and takes notes, the goat is now back
With a passion for rapping and cashing bank rolls
Thanos bout to go snap and take souls
Case closed, ripping a rap, I go demented
Like oh no, flow is so cold that it froze December
A co-defendant, I’ve come to go hit a home run
In the bottom of the 9th, bout to hold the pennant
But somedays feel I gotsta quit
When anxiety is something that I jostle with
The monster is inside a sarcophagus
In the pit of my stomach and esophagus
I yell
I live on the edge, I'm not scared of these heights
Close to the ledge
Think that I might fall and be dead by the end of the night
But this is the greatest I felt in my life, right
Heart of the fight, this is the part that I like
As I lay on the mic
'Til the fire and flames then ignite and I'm hyped
'Cause the mayhem and chaos excites
Spit flames motherfucker insane, got disdain
So quit playin’, bitch, I’m Rick James
When I spit a flow, I leave this shit in critical
May seem that y’ll are more fake than a titty with saline
I used to daydream on the train at eighteen
It made me go put out a videotape because
We was hoping that my city would rate thee
A-team, but instead, these idiots hate me
Found rap and I gave it a whirl
Middle finger aimed at the world
Sipping on moscato til’ the bottom of the bottle
Feelin’ hollow cause I got a lot of haters and it’s making me hurl
Sick of y’all always starting shit
You could push me up until my hard limit
Yeah but after that it ain’t just an argument
You getting Spartan kicked into a dark abyss
[Chorus]
They think I’m insane, you tell me I’ve changed
Yeah somedays it feels like I’m holding my breath
I went out of my way keeping you safe
You don’t know half of the secrets I’ve kept
Living with shame, from all of this pain
So what can I gain, when nothing is left?
What can I gain when nothing is left? Oh
[Outro]
We don’t got nothing to let go, I got no fuckin’ respect for
You let our lovin’ go next door
Fading out from us like echos calling my name
I hear them calling my name, think I’m insane
Demons are calling, I feel that I’m falling below
