I've Been Going Through Things

(album: We Should Just Enjoy Ourselves - 2016)

Young struggle rap flow
Got a day with potential, kinda hope she don't show
Don't test these hands, might see what they know
And I guess this rain don't stop
I've been here the whole time
Shorty playing with the keys like my keys ain't mine
Don't test this man, might meet his mom
But she know that son gon' shine
Fuck it I'll just be alone
If you need me, try to find a reason that you don't
I'ma figure this out, I don't need your help
And I think them clouds passed by
Okay, say my name
Yeah I know that sound, ain't heard it in a while
Leaves from those lips, whole world in your smile
And I see the sky in those eyes
I see the sky in those eyes, yeah
Those eyes right there
Your eyes, baby

Got my dudes with me
And I've been feeling good, I've been feeling good
Got my girls with me
And they be looking good, they be looking good
We open-minded, alright
So if you feel good, then let's feel good
But I'm the one rapping
So they like, "What's good," I'm like, "What's good"
Been singing for a little while
If ugly my name, I'ma wear that proud
Got a song about smiles
Some T-shirts made, they still on my shelf
But they cool as hell, alright
No, I don't wanna turn up, but I'll turn upside down
I might keep to myself
But when that music play, I tend to think out loud
It goes

I've been waiting all my time
I'm patient but inside think I'm going insane
And I may say a lot of things I don't mean
But understand, I've been going through things
Things like this
Things, things like this
And I may say a lot of things I don't mean
But you gotta understand, I've been going through things

Got a girl with me (by my side)
That don't know what I do, never heard my songs
And that shit kinda awesome (that's right)
We can bond over food, flirt all night long
It don't even matter, oh no
She said, "I like you," I'm like, "You ain't wrong"
And then we get to laughing
Then said, "Maybe you can put me in a song 'cause you're my favorite rapper" (you should talk about my butt)
For real? (motherfucker)
Had to pause for a second 'cause my heart just stopped
Looks like that line went flat, I guess that shit my fault
Get so good at being good, you start to get too great
And then you owe the whole world all the shit you made
"I'm glad you fuck with me, shit my mom be proud
But when I go through things, this shit right here is wild"

I've been waiting all my time
I'm patient but inside think I'm going insane
And I may say a lot of things I don't mean
But understand, I've been going through things
Things like this
Things, things like this
And I may say a lot of things I don't mean
But you gotta understand, I've been going through things

Young but feel so old
Got a date with myself, don't think I'm gonna go
Think I missed my chance, sand covers these toes
And I wish that rain would stop
I've been here a long time
Tryna chase what I need, what I need's more time
I'm just a man going out his mind
But I know that Sun will, it's gotta shine, 'cause
(Can you do something for me?)
Can you shine, can you shine, can you shine, can you shine, can you shine
(I need you to do something for me)
Can you shine
Can you shine, this rain is pouring on, it's pouring down
(It's pouring down)
I need to see summer
I need to feel something, all I hear's your thunder
Need to find me an umbrella, need to take cover
'Cause I've been trying, I've been going through things

Things like this
Things, things like this (alright)
And I may say a lot of things I don't mean
But you gotta understand, I've been going through
I've been going through things
