[Verse 1: Navy Blue]
Alone on a path tryna get the thoughts freed up
I'm goin' in the game 4-3 up
If you movin' through this life on the gas, better ease up
Jesus Christ on the cross, gotta bleed
River full of fish bead, weary of the green
So our problems with a spliff, every young brotha' need love
He does worse for himself, couldn't grieve right
We might be all that we wanna be, believe
He ain't goin', so he movin', tryna speed up time
Couldn't leave much behind, except for me
Chief, I was sitting on my hands in the seat
The thief of joy is comparison, you see?
If time is emotion that we movin' at the speed of light
Kept his lips sealed tight, through the screams
It's one foot in front the other on the beam
But the balance enact isn't always what it seems
All that nothin', and not enough more
All that hustlin', the story ain't lore
Please don't rush him, the substance is pure
He'll get there one day, [?] things for sure
One, the [?]
Two, you can heal the brusin' that you've done
Why, it only gets harder as you go
You alive, and that's the sacred part of how you grow
[Beat Switch]
[Verse 2: Navy Blue]
Too many places that y'all from
I done got too high for the come down
No accountability, we blame someone
From the actions displayed on the [?]
Compact is the past, needa burn one
I wish that he could have the peace that his son found
We put my big bro to rest out in London
I stepped back from the edge, put the gun down
My cross, two arms on a wrong
Two wrongs ain't partial to none
Don't miss that
Can't bear the cross or the runt
Many mishaps, countin' every scar with a blunt
Steppin' over tar on a path of response, is all in apart of the ask
Seen [?], I ain't circlin'
Raft, got a big heart
I'ma follow through with the task
Even when I'm hurt, I'ma smile
I done learned just to love me a bit
Fear stack, I was perched on a pile
Down bad, I can gladly admit
Imperfect, I'm searching alive
Loose garment, I can't wear a shroud
And this that bring a brother closer to God
