Evolution

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I think I've learned my lesson I don't really wanna live unsatisfied with my creations I know that in my heart I hate it And if you don't get the picture let me paint it Or frame it, yuh I can pin a thousand lines I've said before a million times I've learned the ways of spitting 'bout my love and 'bout how hard am I Told a hundred stories that you took and I am grateful for But gave so much I had to take time off just to create some more It's a different kind of peace to evolve Could take a week or take a year and never happen at all For me it took some pain and patience And hours to talk and worst of all it took Having to say goodbye to Mom's You get the gist I can get bored of being like this Or make a list of all the people in my past that I've pissed off I'm sick of burning bridges in the midst of my withdrawals And drawing up more problems that'll never just get solved I think I need to grow up I think I need to change Everybody that's been with me since fifteen knows more about me than I know about my brain I think, I think I need to get going I think, I think I need to switch lanes And find a piece of me I've been lost Maybe never even had in the first place I think I need peace, yuh [Chorus] Wake up This morning get another piece of fake love Learn to breathe more than even Wake up This morning get a piece of me Wake up This morning get another piece of fake love Learn to breathe more than even Wake up This morning get a piece of me [Verse 2] Step up in the labyrinth that passively just sits in my mind I know it's hazardous, I'll pass a trick, just stick to the right And it's a hazardous entrapment built from living the lie And in the back of it just laughs and sits my sinister side, yo Get a kick from destroying myths in the Odyssey I'm Apollo, the sun chariot prophecy Benefit from the glow that I got inside of me Bet Icarus would dip; he couldn't even last a mile away I defeated the Minotaur in the maze in a minute And finished with time, just sitting for days And paid attention to allegories I studied in cave Peeping shadows from the fire, changing noises in shape I'm Midas; everything I touch is turned to solid gold And I could fill a bank with all the rappers I've outsold Rock the stage like the volcano blowing out Pompeii And stop saying you could ever spit it like James And don't ever try to best this Fire from the lines will spark a forge of Hephaestus I ain't teaching, but just listen up, I bet I'll learn you something Or run up out the show fast enough to burn rubber I'm sick and tired of the city fads They're on my dick and you're just really fucking really bad Coming at the kid will have me coming out here, tit for tat I've been your dad and I just gave you 24 like the Iliad James [Chorus] Wake up This morning get another piece of-
