saint ripley - didn't notice lyrics

verse 1:
i don’t like to make a habit it of it
i don’t like to run my gums too much (uh uh)
i can feel they got their eyes up on me
jealous b+tches draw your fangs, i floss
i’m on my canine sh+t, i’m on that a1 tip
i’m not on another planet
cause i am the eclipse
you must be gassing yourself
see you can’t handle your wealth
seen you brace for impact
you unbuckle your belt
losing grip of it all
this is your wake+up call
success has come a knocking and you’re locking the door
you can’t ignore all the signs
you been here before
if you wait another second
all the heavens could fall
had your blessings in your lap and didn’t notice
had your blessings in your lap and didn’t notice
had your blessings in your lap and din’t, didn’t notice
you didn’t notice, you didn’t notice
didn’t notice
you didn’t notice

verse 2:
had your blessings in your lap and drifted focus
turned your gaze away n played you didn’t notice
magnum opus in the palm of your hands
yet you run from your success
like you’ll catch it again
this could be everything you had
your last shot to get it
times running out
yet you count down of digits
c’mon now, man

verse 3:
so get your head up out your ass and shift your focus
shut your b+tch ass up, and recommit to motives
you ain’t got time to root in your neurosis
you best shake it while you water up your modus
operandi + cut it out like fungi
rotting out your brain and these fluids got you tongue tied
planted in inaction, rooted like a banzai
one day universe gon’ pluck and slice you like a fu+ji
tell your grandkids like “o+o+o+once i…”
reminisce about the past, and ramble bout the good times
attention be in short supply + met with rolled eyes
stories ‘bout hitting stages
wu+tang, push and t.i
but you never made it, cause you gave up
you spent another forty years on a pay stub
you better wake up, say “f+ck a rat race
nate, it’s time to break the cycle
and your own chains
take your blessings in my hand and shift your focus
take your blessings in my hand and shift your focus
take your blessings in my hand and shift ya, shift your focus
shift your focus, shift your focus
shift ya
shift your focus

outro:
“in earlier times all of this had been nothing but a fleeting and deceptive veil in front of his eyes, distrusted, destined to be pierced by thought and destroyed, since it was not reality, since reality lay beyond the visible. but now his liberated eyes remained on this side, he saw and acknowledged visibility, he sought his home in this world, did not seek reality, did not aim at any beyond. all that he had to find joy in had always existed, and he had never seen it, he had never been present. now he was there, he belonged to it.”
