Clicks clicks clicks they'll do anything to get a few

Tick tick tick that's the sound before my head explodes

Quit quit quit look at you up on your pedestals

Quick quick quick here the critics come it's time to go

I read your article it kinda hurt me

I don't know who hired you or what your friends say in your circle

But the fact that you released it tells me two things are for certain

They get paid for trashin' people I get paid 'cause I stay workin'

Yeah

Dropped The Search and they emerge up outta nowhere to the surface

Just to peek behind the curtain throwin' salt at all my burdens

I'm aware I shouldn't give this my attention life's a journey

I should just stay on my path and learn to laugh

You think they heard me

Ears are burning put 'em out quiet quiet look around

Why don't they find someone way more interesting to write about

Us we're kinda boring aren't we all we do is whine and pout

It's confusing so amusing how I argue with myself

Hello

I spit it with ease so leave it to me

You doubt it but you better believe

I'm on a rampage hit 'em with the record release

Depend on the week I'm prolly gonna have to achieve

Another goal let me go when I'm over the beat

I go into beast mode like I'm ready to feast

I'm fed up with these thieves tryna get me to bleed

They wanna see me take an L

Yup see what I mean

How many records I gotta give you to get with the program

Taken for granted I'm 'bout to give you the whole plan

Open your mind up and take a look at the blueprint

Debate if you gotta but gotta hold it with both hands

To pick up the bars you gotta be smart

You really gotta dig in your heart

If you wanna get to the root of an issue

Pursuin' the mental can be dark and be difficult

But the pay off at the end of it

Can help you to get through it ayy

Paid my dues made it through

Woo woo woo

Spread the news I'm on the loose

Woo woo woo

Makin' moves I need some room

Woo woo woo

Thought we's cool

Well don't assume don't assume hey

I'm the truth oh they want some proof here don't be rude

Somethin' new even when I lose I make it look cool

Do the show then we hit the room wife is lookin' oh

What to do I don't need the shades up to like the view

Yeah

View view

It's time to get back in the swing of things

When my life crashes I'm not the guy that'll flee the scene

I'll take ownership and own it and raise my hand if it's me

Just remember though I'm only a man I'm a human being

Don't they see shoot the breeze I'd rather just stay discrete

People claim they're in your corner but leave you in times of need

They don't listen do they

What

They don't listen to anything

I'll accept advice if it's not presented ignorantly

Look costs are high they multiply then cause divides

I'm forced to fight the poison I been

Sippin' on has quite the bite it killed me twice

They rigged the lights so y'all can see the parts of mine

That aren't so bright see often I apologize

Then authorize the awful times to pop up

Nate

Like I'm right behind you I'd advise you not to try to

Climb inside the mind like I do

Keep the rhyme book expedite it overnight it

Hold it tight and hope that time is on my side

'Cause if it's not then I'll decide to override

My own demise I tow the line too close and I

Could improvise I'd empathize but recognize

The fact that I could jeopardize and wreck your lives

You better give me your attention the undivided

Paid my dues made it through

Woo woo woo

Spread the news I'm on the loose

Woo woo woo

Makin' moves I need some room

Woo woo woo

Thought we's cool

Well don't assume don't assume hey

Paid my dues made it through

Woo woo woo

Spread the news I'm on the loose

Woo woo woo

Makin' moves I need some room

Woo woo woo

Thought we's cool

Well don't assume don't assume ayy
