Nostalgia For The Now

(albüm: Nostalgia For The Now - 2016)

Yeah

You know that I haven't started either
Got a fork in two directions but I ain't follow neither
It's always been raining but recently all the water's clearer
On the road to glory the story for me has gotten nearer
But every day I've been
Writing a page in this autobiography
Fifteen years old and I've built up a following
Look at the shit I'm already accomplishing
But in the back of my mind
I swear this fear keeps on grabbing my time
Seeing what's left of it
When you ain't relevant
Sorry you lighter than parties you drive
Yeah

And now that I want to live alone I live alone
And if your home is where your heart is
And I don't know what I've started
And I really do not want to go home
And now they're living like a king now, a king now
But I ain't started a thing now, a thing now
Everybody spread them wings out, and sing out (no, no)

Recently I've been feeling my lyrics missing meaning
I'm tryna whitewash how much they stink like I'm Listerine-ing
Damn, I feel like I have missed the key
So I guess that DJ Khaled is always skipping me
But, yeah
You know I'm tryna do what I can
But these ignorant idiots just can't understand
You know I'm tryna do what I can
But these ignorant idiots just can't understand

I got new crews and new friends
I got new views and a new lens
I'm a new dude, I'm the new Ben
Got my YouTube with the new trends
But the way I'm growing is so unorthodox
How can I be connecting 'em if I have yet to sort the dots
I'm sorta lost and very found at the same time
I pour the cost knowing very loud in the daytime
And very quiet at night
'Cause I seem to shine when I write
And I'm longing to be a 5-year-old chilling, flying a kite
And I admire the sight of somebody else working more than me
I been staying grounded but the sky is moving toward my feet
And fortunately I'm on course, living morally
Grinding to get what's rightfully mine
I'm headed right for my dream
Uh, I guess that's all I need to know for now
They put me in the driver's seat, no way I'm slowing down
They know me now but don't know my sound it is so profound
But give me two years and I'll make it, let me show you how
