Seven (Interlude)

(album: Everything - 2020)

Little mama in the back, baby boy in my lap
Seven colors in the sky, I been fucking with the ride
I been jumping with the tide, riding invisible waves
Getting through critical days, tryna do minimal pains
Seeing the physical gains, lost in the digital fame
Always going with the flow, I ain't cut out for the game
Smile bigger through the lows, I ain't tripping when it rains
Tryna see the rainbow, out the way I stay low
Find a place and make home, drop a hat and that's that
Had to learn to say "no", say "no" to getting mad
I just stick to my math, oh yeah that's him again
I know you watching me bubble like Michelin
I made it out of the ignorance, now I just give them the syllabus
Make it and never be bitter, always addressing my pillars
I hit the floor then I get up, keep moving on like I been up
Go with the grain, trust in my law
Won't let me in, I bust in the door
Blood in my veins, love in my pores
Son on the way, I'm up in the morn'
Stay in my lane, refusing to change
If life it a bitch, I'm coming in raw
I gotta create to know I'm alive
To know that there is always gon' be something more
Blessing to yours

I'll ignore everybody, ya know, when I'm home
I'll ignore everybody to spend time with my kid
Doesn't matter who you are, like doesn't matter how big the opportunity, I don't care, you know what I mean
Because at the end of the day, when all of this is done
And I'm not popping and you know, nobodies checking for me
I'm gunna still have a kid, and he's gunna, it's up to him
What he, takes away from our relationship, and um and
He still needs to learn things and people always like
People always tell me like "you're so cynical" but I'm like "one day I'm gunna die", you know, and so, none of this would matter
All of the work I put in, would not matter, striving
Striving for the win, you know, as the Bible would say
And I just, I look at that and I take that to heart because, man
Since none of this would matter, I might as well balance ever
I might as well balance it and have a good balance
So I can be happy and my child could be happy
These the most important things, you know
