World Of Adults

(album: Along The Way - 2017)

'Cause you know, every once in a while, I get it
The words flow and I ain't gotta worry about a sentence
Why you talking 'bout dreams and how to push limits
I learned to never fall in love until the product's finished
Yeah, and sometimes I forget to smile
Sometimes I find myself a little in denial
And sometimes, I'm not the man that I portray to be
Sometimes, I'm OK with actually being me
I got this now, full of loose ends
And while you looking for 'em
The life'll show you the true friends
I hope this pad leaves us something great
Holding my breath 'til I make it until I suffocate
We let these scars grow deep, and
We learn to love by getting thrown into the deep end
So, if you think life sucks, get ready
'Cause you don't know much about this, man

Ayy, and we can speak until the word travels
Just a kid tryna fit into a world of adults
Because you know what they say
"Eventually, you gotta grow up and meet the world", ayy
And we can speak until we find courage
Just a kid tryna fit into a world of purpose
Because you know when you lose
Eventually, you gotta grow up and learn to love you

Yeah, me and my baby built this glass home
And metaphorically speaking, we got some masks on
Yeah, we're in a difficult endeavor 'cause
We keep throwing these rocks at the ceiling
To see who hits it better
Right, I always win, this ain't even a challange
All the destruction is easy, I'm tryna build some balance
Yeah, see, I'm a man without a wife
She's a lady going crazy, convincing she gives the best advice
Maybe she does and I don't listen
I'm too busy tryna cook up another excuse inside the kitchen
That's why this glass house is falling down
And there's a million others falling all across the town
So, all the flaws and the make-up, tryna get your cake up
Work, sleep, wake up
Do it again that's the cycle of the game
But I learned you can't appreciate the sun 'til you felt the rain

Ayy, and we can speak until the word travels
Just a kid tryna fit into a world of adults
Because you know what they say
"Eventually, you gotta grow up and meet the world", ayy
And we can speak until we find courage
Just a kid tryna fit into a world of purpose
Because you know when you lose
Eventually, you gotta grow up and learn to love you

I found me in the breakdown
But how much can you take now?
I been lost of all hope
But, you can't break me down
You can't break me down
You can't break me down, no!

See, I see everybody tryna live perfect
And when they die come to see the persuit was never worth it
No regrets, fuck up the mistake to encourage
Make sure your homies really miss you at your funeral service
As life don't come with a safety belt
Even the drugs can't numb the feeling, nah
I mighta lost my way, but I learned
That I'ma never fall in love 'til the coffee's made

Ayy, and we can speak until the word travels
Just a kid tryna fit into a world of adults
Because you know what they say
"Eventually, you gotta grow up and meet the world", ayy
And we can speak until we find courage
Just a kid tryna fit into a world of purpose
Because you know when you lose
Eventually, you gotta grow up and learn to love you
