They had my back against the wall, no way springboard off
Conversations with my lady about what the rent's going to cost
I was hazy in LA, don't react well edibles
These songs I write collectibles, a pen pal professional
This Neumann's a confessional for unpresentable thoughts
Still tryna find the some leveled balance cuz my schedules off
Is the stability a perk? Benefits of my work
Sometimes I feel like Deku watching other niggas with quirks
The harsh realities of not being where you wanna be
These niggas wannabe's, I'm blessed it's only one of me
Was making fun of me, now I'm hearing that they look up to me
They tryna fuck with me, I'm loyal to my company
I want it all not in a gluttonous way
I'm tryna make sure that we paid and that my family straight
Risking all my mental health because it's a lot that's at stake
Minimizing mistakes, too many eyes fantasize of my place
Fantasize of my place
They fantasize of my place nigga
Yeah
Look
I had your back but you was too busy tryna stab mine
The pieces scattered so I realized that we can't align
Thought I was ready for that moment but it wasn't time
That moment but it wasn't time
But now I get up and get straight to the paper
I hope I reap all the rewards from the fruits of my labor
Fuck that nigga if he hating, I tried to love all my neighbors
Locked myself up in this chamber to prepare for these stages
Feeling changes in my life, been on the moon through these phases
Filled these pages with phrases in hopes to parlay these wagers
Elevated like raises, these visions premeditated
If Jesus walked over water, I must've skated on that motherfucker
Must've skated on that motherfucker
Yeah
If Jesus walked over water, I must've skated on that motherfucker
