While It Counts

(album: Good On It All - 2019)

(4evr known)
So many flaws you can see
Counting them for me

So many flaws you can see
Counting them for me, I don't need to rest a peep
Endless nights working, endless ladies twerking
I ain't got no purpose
Still stay swerving
On all of you girls who just hit me up
Cause I can make a catchy song
Some followers don't make me cool

I ain't making shit for you
Can barely make it on my own
That's a fact that I'm ashamed of
Work ethic, pathetic
These dollars are boutta be coming my way
If I keep this on day to day
If I don't spend my whole check on another ounce
Smoke my lungs out while it counts
You ain't 21 forever
Leave some legacy before you bounce
Last two of my name
Leave it in a great shame

I don't need to rest a peep
My nightmares come for me
They can keep me wide awake
All night falling into your arms
Can't shake the bitter feeling of being at ease
There's many people out there far worse off than me
Why can't I take a second to appreciate
The setting I've been born into
Struggles can't compare to you
I want to repay with an anthem or two
Grossly neglecting the thoughts of who
I'm trying to fight off that I once knew

So many flaws you can see
Counting them for me, I don't need to rest a peep
Endless nights working, endless ladies twerking
I ain't got no purpose
Still stay swerving
On all of you girls who just hit me up
Cause I can make a catchy song
Some followers don't make me cool
You gotta know
What you're getting into
(Getting into)

Think I'm giving in today
A bullet to my head's like a favor to my brain
Spent my last cent
Tryna numb the fuckin pain
Everything is fake, my reality is frayed
I'll do whatever it takes to make sure you know
My love, it doesn't stay for far too long
You could not account for my lost soul when
I'm everything you want, at least for the moment
I'm talking to the ghost of who I was
Told him
"Meet me in the back don't cause a fuss
Cause I only got a second and I want you to know that
I'm never coming back
I'ma drown in the ocean"
