Whirlwind

(专辑： California Poppy 3 - 2023)

Not every day is gon' be a sunny day
But I rather make a way than run away
Finding the strength in anything that this life might bring on
'Cause if I can't lean on myself, who can I lean on?
Deep inside the whirlwind, tryna keep my head on
But I'm facing it head on
Deep inside the whirlwind, tryna keep my head on
But I'm facing it head on

Ayy, look
It's hard to find clarity when don't nobody know themselves apparently
I can only judge you by the shit you choose to share with me
Let me hit your blunt and ease my problems temporarily
Niggas talk about everything on earth other than therapy
I'm out the way, I've been working on me and heaven
I'm better than I was last year, and that's a feeling
Being honest with myself was a villain
How could I be so good with words but can't articulate my feelings?
I ain't pushing shit back, I'm finna do things now
I'm tired of self doubt, long days and moods swings now
Sometimes you gotta switch the scenery and move things around
But when it got heavy on my heart, I chose to lose these pounds
Now I'm another size
If it don't kill me, it make me come alive
When it got cracking like the egg on the sunnyside
When life forces you to evolve, just know that your call to be a moth or a butterfly

Not every day is gon' be a sunny day
But I rather make a way than run away
Finding the strength in anything that this life might bring on
'Cause if I can't lean on myself, who can I lean on?
Deep inside the whirlwind, tryna keep my head on
But I'm facing it head on
Deep inside the whirlwind, tryna keep my head on
But I'm facing it head on

Ayy, God, let me spread my wings
Went and made a killing and I fed my team
Check the DNA, it's paper in my genes
If it ain't in my genes then it's in my jeans
Hundred K for a post, made a M off a smile
Heard you signed a bideal, how you deal with your child?
How you deal with her momma?
How you deal with your pops?
How you deal with a little is how you deal with a lot, hmm
Niggas still running from the truth
Got a little, had to wiggle like I'm pulling out a tooth
Life a circus, they money got niggas jumping through hoops
Can't even recoup, they suing niggas for loot
I'm giving niggas splits and they telling me I'm the truth
I ain't doing shit but what a nigga is supposed to do
We supposed to get paid off this shit that we made
Some niggas can't even take they names to the grave
Are you serious? We trade money for niggas lives
The how ain't never as important as the why
I've had niggas lie while looking me in the eyes
And I just had to sit and act surprised
Niggas could barely count but we learn how to conquer and divide
The how is not as important as the why
I said the how is not as important as the why
Yeah

Not every day is gon' be a sunny day
But I rather make a way than run away
Finding the strength in anything that this life might bring on
'Cause if I can't lean on myself, who can I lean on?
Deep inside the whirlwind, tryna keep my head on
But I'm facing it head on
Deep inside the whirlwind, tryna keep my head on
But I'm facing it head on, head on

Not every day is gon' be a sunny day
But I rather make a way than run away
Finding the strength in anything that this life might bring on
'Cause if I can't lean on myself, who can I lean on?
