spectre (rapper) - 19 years lyrics
[chorus]
i thought i was pr+ne to settle
but i’ve never stayed on one level
i’ve never been holdin the metal
but i’ve always been known to meddle
[verse]
too much to say but not enough time to talk through it
2 more years on the wave man, it’s all fluid
tryna dedicate my life to being altruistic
the salt that gets this kid through hard musings
some of them staying in hov lane like carpoolers
others’ll pave they own lane like i’m doing
colourful vapours the behaviour in hеrds
so you smoke til you/‘u’ gone like amеrican words, sure
i’m not about to be politickin again
poverty ain’t mine, it made it more probable for a win
policy is i must distribute the spoils i begin
i harness the gift of my mind and charge it into the pen
no diss tracks and no distractions, mind on tacit
noticed that this more than rap, it’s some culture clashing
i ain’t from the a so i gotta stay where i’m at quick, look at that kid
[chorus]
i thought i was pr+ne to settle
but i’ve never stayed on one level
i’ve never been holdin the metal
but i’ve always been+always been (meddle)
[part ii]
[bridge]
i thought i was one to settle
but i’ve never stayed on one level
i wasn’t built for an easy life
[verse 1]
do i give in, take the ease and succumb to the force of habits
taste of extremes or reflection of a normal life that’s vapid
should i take that energy and convey it into my practice
or i should bash your head in with the b+tt of the knife you stabbed my back with
work round the calendar til talent gets out of date
they’ve never seen someone who can grow confidence out of hate
watching your every move, waiting for you to feel out of place
when you learn to/the drive? like if arthur told buddy “get out the way”
saying to you “buster/bust a move” “hear the message” “these are the breaks”
now i know why i’m called, to evolve from all the greats
member they watched me blow up as a kid saying i don’t feel my age
then i watch me grow up and barely didn’t see any change
i know a kid who wanted a life with lack of effort to function
went down a path which he determined lessened necessary suffering
then he discovered work ethic in the midst of his plan
it was that “lazy fake job” that turned him into a man
[verse 2]
tryna have a storybook ending but won’t pick up a novel
tryna push the needle but won’t put the syringe in the bottle
tryna turn the page meanwhile writing my lyrics in a notes app
tryna walk it off but the pain is your spirit needing prozac
self improvement made expectations of others increase
how many people in the past felt that exact way with me?
type of stress baby mommas get when the fatherhood leaves
type of sess make you wanna have never bothered with trees
type of mess, when it spill, with a million mops you couldn’t clean
life’s a debt, may convince your descendants’ wallets to bleed
why respect? what else you expect when you got no re+up
empty, i see the light of the matter: spectrometry
come with me, take swim in the treacherous waters beneath
i would bet, if you could see from my side, those thoughts would cease
[verse 3]
type of blessed, sometimes the guilt make it hard to believe
but it’s never been about the cards you’re dealt and the doubt it breeds
you saw me on my hands and knees, what’s your route like now?
who you with? these are questions i’ll never ask myself
blessings are felt when you don’t hold yourself to insane heights
we pay the price when we selfish, make sacrifices
fall back to the same vices, stab backs with the same niceness
i guess we never grow up, you just act like you ain’t childish
it’s never been
[outro]
yeah, dad
okay
