Plaques

(album: I've Been Here Before - 2017)

They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game
They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game

Dark days in my life
Almost fell in too deep
Artist in that industry, that hates an artist like me
I roll like everyone else
Then I finally woke up
Learned that if you don't be yourself
Then you won't be in this game long
See in all this rise and falling
The season before the winter
Flow keep getting caught up
But I study bars like a beginner
Pay my way no handouts
No connections to a label
Now labels getting hungry
Fans connect to me like cables
Fans relating to my story
Relating to my pain
I was quiet about my struggles
Till my struggles made my sing
Till I got the news that changed my life
Maybe this was fate
Or maybe just my actions
That lead me to this place

They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game
They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game
Yeah
They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, yeah
In this game, yeah
They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, yeah
In this game, yeah

Yeah
This flesh I'm in, it feels so cursed to me
I don't talk to God enough would tell me what my purpose be
Wonder what my struggles sees when they looking at me
Man that boy always falls off the path
I'm feeling like I'm Adam
In the Garden of Eden
Women that say they want me
Curved a girl I should marry
But texted a girl that don't want me for me
Losing sleep, hate the feeling of Anxiety
Even if I'm dying, tell the doctor that he can lie to me
Hate this pain, hate these thoughts inside my brain
Hate that if I had listen to em
It wouldn't have got this way
Hate this pain, hate these thoughts inside my brain
Hate that if I listen to em, it wouldn't have got this way
Aye

They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game
They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game
Yeah
They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game
They want plaques
I want a platform in this game
In this game, in this game
Yeah
