Lyrics

[Verse 1] Shadows in every corner Lurking only in darkness Tryna persuade the old man Please give advice to the heartless Empty castles awaiting my presence Who's the defender? The present is in December Your memory can't remember Liquify food for thoughts and playing the role as a blender On different journeys that be turning into adventures Missing teeth are like missing words that apply it some denture The dentist don't have a temper But I'm never tryna impress ya I be teaching you things, let me welcome you to my lecture And I ain't going in, this is only a fuckin' tester You can tell that I'm 'bout it by analysing my gestures (my gestures) Did I mention that I ain't a force to be messin' with Take time and go learn your shit I'm Grey Goose to you Smirnoff kids Space Age will come burn your clit Bow down and call me sir not miss We're the team that you were not with No do we do not play boy And if we do we flip the whole game boy (yeah) [Chorus] Taking direction I see them arrows Growing mentally from a teen up into an adult Know this is my time when I grab it I'm going raggo Still I'm in the dark and surrounded by all these shadows I can see the shadows (Lurking in the dark, not in space, not a bird, not a plane am I sane 'cause) I can see the shadows (Lurking in the dark, not in space, not a bird, not a plane am I sane 'cause) [Verse 2] Oh, I can see the- People listening envisioning what I'm saying is trippy I'm a hippy surrounded by hippies always rolling with me Ya dig me, they know that I'm a dope mo' fucka Speak the truth, unlike listening to the Pope mo' fucka I don't mean no disrespect in what I wrote mo' fucka Fuck it, I'ma disrespect you in your home mo' fucka See Space Age over there and they all my brothers I ain't gotta get them to like it 'cause I already know that they love us, oh Mind over matter Adele over Rihanna Oh, real music with real emotion That's real talk, no banta D-d-Damn right I said it I'm never afraid to speak my mind It's only because I know where my head is You're useless; Take information, twist it up then spread it That's that rumour that you've been bedded Pieces always broken Sidetracking the focus from tryna be golden Moving in slow-motion Seeking clarity like the ocean Compare me to the best, compare me to an explosion It's just improvisation Made the glass rise, it's all an occasion My destination is greatness Meet me there at the location Either way I'm getting there, no pressure Help me to be better See them shadows all in that corner Do they scare me? My nigga, never, uh [Chorus] Taking direction I see them arrows Growing mentally from a teen up into an adult Know this is my time when I grab it I'm going raggo Still I'm in the dark and surrounded by all these shadows I can see the shadows (Lurking in the dark, not in space, not a bird, not a plane am I sane 'cause) I can see the shadows (Lurking in the dark, not in space, not a bird, not a plane am I sane 'cause) I can see the shadows (Lurking in the dark, not in space, not a bird, not a plane am I sane 'cause) I can see the shadows (Lurking in the dark, not in space, not a bird, not a plane am I sane 'cause) I can see the shadows
