[intro]

what we doing?

[verse 1]

i’ll take a
sangria on ice
text message my
engineer
just seeking advice
i’m less concerned with
dropping quick
than getting it right
instead of writing
i be too busy living
my life
it’s hardly been
a hiatus
just out
of your sight
i’m not easily
persuaded
i’m guided by light
not by likes
i’m not like y’all
and i don’t no have interest
in tryna spite y’all
but going my own way
was the right call
i was never
in doubt
i’m coming for
everything
i was going without
with or without ya
from sleeping
on the floor
to standing on couches
disrespect on my name
i’d never allow it
n+ggas know
how i’m coming
no need to announce it
like that

[verse 2]

i just
need to vent
i talk
to god
whеn i’m angry
no more seeking revengе
i just pray he
understand
and hear me repent
cause if i come
out of my body
it’d be an event
just because
i let you slide
don’t equal a win
and should you
really wanna spin
i’m dropping my pin
we can crash
clear it up
and crash it again
it don’t matter
to me
it’s certain sh+t
you really gotta see
to believe
and i can see
it vivid
but you won’t ever
see the day
they knock me off my pivot
cause you know
what they say
about
arguing fools
from a far
it’s really hard to
tell the difference
i paid my dues
tax, fines, fees
expenses
my feet don’t
touch the ground
i’m standing
on business
my auntie passed away
it shook me
to my core
and since idk
how to mourn
i just kept my distance
my family don’t
understand
i just ask
forgiveness
[verse 3]

cause i’m feeling restless
this holiday was the first
where i don’t feel her presence
empty seats at dinner
got me feeling dejected
open windows
in the winter
tryna

tryna catch my breath

not to mention
having battles
with my own health
overworked and busy just
tryna clear my debt
that’s the price you pay
when you bet on yourself

i could’ve really
put myself
on the shelf
instead of asking
for help
i tightened my belt
no time
to sit and cry
over my hand
mama taught me
to play the cards that
i was dealt
pops taught me
to share whatever that
i felt
so even if
i say f+ck you
i mean it
from the depth
i’ll pour into
my people
til it’s nothing left
and only a handful
had made me
regret it
apologies
to lashae
about time
that i said it
all i can
really do
is hope you accept it
i let someone
insignificant
get in our way
but what i
want for you
is blessings
on top of blessings
that’s real

[verse 4]

if i ever have a daughter
i think ima call her
autumn dae
what could be
more perfect
than an autumn day?
or maybe after
my favorite color
heather grey
in a world
full of pain
i pray
she’s my escape
like a trip
to jamaica
in the month of may
finding a peace
of mind
in the summer haze
seeking tranquility
in a set
of waves
hope she’s
the purest
won’t teach her
none of my wicked ways
i’m years deep
in the game
and still
n0body’s favorite
i’d be lying
if i said
i didn’t
feel a way
but in a
marathon
you gotta
set a pace
you’ll end up
losing yourself
tryna run in
a race

i swear to god

[outro]

no one’s invited
no one’s invited

yeah

i wrote this
in my head
while the woman
of my dreams
is laying
beside me
we watching the
window pane
it’s raining
in raleigh
