Going Blind (30's Version) Lyrics

Let us tell it, we was supposed to be the rock

Cause every time we popped out, it was another movie

To be fair, it still is, but it didn't come with a genre

And I guess that's why it's so confusing

Crazy how we was on New Year's Eve, like it was fine

Making sure the hard work would pay off with the grind

They said it would make our life, but I think somebody lied

If it's 2020 vision, I feel like I'm going blind

Damn who knew, we would avoid the okie-doke to get the whoopty whoop

Would've been a different kind of hurt if I was still in school

And to those who still pushing through, woo, I feel for you

Got a lot of them ideas in mind for gettin' lit with the crew

And it's worse when you turn extrovert and then you see the news

Man, ain't that a bitch? Cause now you all confused

On social media, like damn, I thought that we was cool

But I guess that's the mood

I think about Restart Button IV all the time

Then I realize what's the point to press rewind

Especially when every other day our people dying

2020 vision, I feel like I'm going blind

But at the same time, man, we been on a decline

Now I'm optimistic, stars will shine and sun will rise

I didn't mean to get deep, so let me laugh to keep from crying

2020 vision, I feel like I'm going blind

Not all the way where I wanna be, but I'm content

Had to learn and everything ain't at my expense

Hell, it was getting tense, so I had to go and cleanse

Now I'm riding behind these tints just to spend time in a tent

Had to step back and step on the scene and the zone

I just knew that was the possibility of getting slept on

It was either learn humility or unleash hell on

The same ones that played me like I needed to get the hell on

But it's okay, I ain't forget though, I had to sit low

It took a minute to get self confidence, I had to get more

Or else I would've never caught a win in the end zone

So I'd rather look back and laugh than wish we would've did more

But this too shall pass, I feel obliged

This ain't how I wanted to start, but I guess now's the perfect time

It wasn't my intention on taking this long to rhyme

But if it's 2020 vision, I feel like I'm going blind

And if we being honest, we came too far from nevermind

The game done got too good to even try to ride the pine

Can't take it for granted, gotta treat it like it's mine

So if next year is the answer, then let me open my eyes

Can't take it for granted, gotta treat it like it's mine

So if next year is the answer, then let me open my eyes

That year wasn't the answer, I got knocked back down to size

Too many variables, truth be told, I wasn't surprised

Most people with memberships on life just had to unsubscribe

Still processing, ain't felt that good feeling in a while

Dirty 30, but over here trying to heal my inner child

Staying in place but it's moments where I might snap and cross the line

But I came too far, being where I'm at is really the prize

That year wasn't the answer, but I'll try again next time

That year wasn't the answer, but I'll try again next time

But in the meantime
