Not Treading ft. Swats Lyrics

Went back and made my peace with sinking, not swimming, not treading

No, I'm not talking literally, just my ego got beheaded

Cause when I woke up with bad things and jewels all in my bed

I realized those are my dreams, put my game face on and I went all the way outside

Let my soul out, cry for the ones that died and fuck the ones that lied

Me and everything I work for, worldwide and don't even have a passport

On you and everything you stand for, you gon' take control of the backdoor

Shit, that's an easy choice for me

I ain't comfy with the backseat, so please don't bring your keys

I'll drive us off to destiny, it'll only take a week

Not easily, but if they did it then I know so can we, so can we, so can we

Go all the way away from home, all the memories you'll make when it's just you and me alone

Anything you ever wanted without ever hearing no

It's all possible, but not if I sit back on my ass and mope so I

Went back and made my peace with sinking, not swimming, not treading

No, I'm not talking literally, just my ego got beheaded

Cause when I woke up with bad things and jewels all in my bed

I realized those are my dreams, my game face on, I said

Yeah I'm changing, so I say

But in reality, I'm the same

I'm changing every day, so I gotta treat it like a game

Like 4th goal or third base, ninth inning

Shotgun, countdown, now time's ticking

First time, never tell how long till I'm winning

Bet the trophy in me it would be real fitting

Fitted for a champion or fitted for a king

So for now, I'll play the rook and strike on opportunity

Moving backwards ain't an option, especially when there's queens on the board

Ready to mate for checks, trying to find that piece

So I'm thinking straight up, but out the box, this ain't 4D

Guess for now, it's see ya later, I'll see ya on the big screen

I know there's a lot to do, and it all begins with me

So here's to you, now to me

Be back when I skate from Mont Saint-Pierre

Still rollin' off on my dreams, and the weeds still in my bed

Still waking up so lonely, from my ego in my head

Not talking literally, but when I was close to dead

Had to go make my peace, so I dropped to my knees and prayed

I told Lil Swats that he got one with this

Up in the stu' and I got me a hit

Only high caliber we cannot miss

Taking a step in another abyss, like, whoa, shit

I'm running like I got something to hide

Fuck all the 'opps cause I know that they tried

Slide to the trap in the middle of night

Enemies around me, I can tell they only doubt me

In the Mazzi' with a hottie

Now I know they gon' be plotting

I be mobbing like I'm Gotti

Too damn stubborn can't be sorry

Bout to upgrade to the 'Rari

Now it's 'bout to be a party, hey

So I'm grabbing glasses, pour 'em up for the homies

Guess for now, we forget our problems enjoying the simple things

I don't got much for tomorrow, but I'm stressed and cannot sleep

Guess I'm drowning deep in the current of instability, yeah

Still putting off all my dreams

And the weed's still in my bed

Still waking up so lonely

From my ego in my head

Not talking literally, but when I was close to dead

Had to go make my peace, so I dropped to my knees and prayed

I sit here and contemplate

Sunny skies turn to rainy ones, now I'm looking back on some better days

Smoking up some plenty runts I feel it creep into my lungs

Give me five days, maybe six I'll have the pack gone, man, it's done

Savor the moment then back to the hunt

I'm doing me, you can do what you want

We got the crowd so we setting it off

In the convertible, dropping the top

Building it up, and now I gotta flaunt

Got my guitar and I'm ready to rock

Got all this music, I'm ready to drop
