I got my mother's face, I think I got her humor
I got my father's taste in music, it's too scattered for words
I was the quiet kid in school, or who they called the "cool nerd"
I daydreamed in my classes when I wrote the stuff that you heard
My mother mad my grades slipped, I'm busy tryna be a-list
My teachers can't get through to me, my head so far from pavement
Was never out of orbit, in science class ignoring
Lessons on space, like "I should be in spaces out recording"
I still lived on my old block, was getting scammed for show slots
Was scared and sad when we got hoed and then my homie's bro popped
The week before we had our plan, thinking "we gon be on"
Back of my head was still insisting that I don't belong
15, stressed over timing, shit, I had been afraid
To have my chance, I'd bend more knees than Demi on that Disney stage
Thought my knowledge then would mean that I'd be so abundant
Little did I know, the wise man's secret was knowing nothing
Stares in the crowd, think my cover's been blown
Understanding's the thing I need the most
Head in the clouds, don't think I'll ever land
Think I need help just to find where I stand
Little Prince, boy, you not from this planet
But something tells me you'll know how to move
Little Prince, boy, you not from this planet
But something tells me you're gonna make due
I got my brother's drive, I got my sister's boldness
I thrive in the sunlight and fight to prosper when it's coldest
Still overthink when I'm alone, sometimes I can't stay focused
When I get boost from friends, my confidence is overflowing
It's wild, I started off so down, was hard for me to
Smile, was droning on, I felt like R2D2
It got to a point where it was all too overbearing
Think drive-thrus, I solved the issues, now it's no more carin'
Look how I stand on my own two
Walking and stumbling, but I'm recovering, staying back down what I won't do
Tryna drag me down's a big reach, dodge and hit my Uzi shimmy
Praying to see me fall, you gon' wait longer than Mickey D's lines at 9:50
I was an empathetic introvert that lost his will to care
Took some time, and now it's failed link-ups - that thought just isn't there
The chaos gone, I saw me and peace like "this'll pair"
I'm reconnecting with myself, I feel the signal in the air
Stares in the crowd, think my cover's been blown
Understanding's the thing I need the most
Head in the clouds, don't think I'll ever land
Think I need help just to find where I stand
Little Prince, boy, you not from this planet
But something tells me you'll know how to move
Little Prince, boy, you not from this planet
But something tells me you're gonna make due
