Topics Lyrics

I've been trying to learn who I am, not parkway

Driving along I can't tell if it's the fast lane

But it's my very own lane so I can't change

Or even slow down for a second till we are great

Past days I wrote bars, now I've gotta raise them

I can't say where I'll be, as I'm chopping, changing

I've seen quite a few people been watching lately

Often they've been giving shit, but let's stop debating

Stopping's not an option, I'll continue on

Dad says I should keep trying harder and he isn't wrong

There's more on my mind than I can fit within a song

That's why I write many

Take the number 10 and times 20, that's the effort in

No energy left within, just notify my next of kin

If I die before I wake just know I tried hard

I left it on the field even if I'm not legendary

And that's ok with me

Cause everything I write's testament to the very time it's taken me

Time left still to get primed to kill

No time on ice, no time to chill

I've been, fighting uphill since I started this

But never thought once about trying to depart from this

After this

There'll only be a casket, let's really start this shit

You know when you do something for the first time

And it's like a switch just flips in your brain

And you're like this, this is what I want to do with the rest of my life

And all of a sudden you can't sleep, you can't eat, you can't breathe

Without this thing being present with you at all times

And it becomes like an obsession but it's a healthy one

If someone pulls a handbrake on life, man, I used to drift

After a while, I learned to get used to it

Followed along for a bit, I had the newest shit

Until I looked into the mirror wondering who is this?

Now where do I stand between a question and an answer?

Asking too much of the former, I didn't plan for

All these vacancies in the latter, but still I grant the

Doubt benefit, turn it down, let him in

I heard he had a few bad storms, weathered them

But why are you defending him?

I'm looking for a specialist, not just another Leatherman

If I could just have a second of your time, man I promise

You won't regret this shit

You wanna hear a true story?

Just find me a beat that you recommend

And then once you've found that thing

You start digging a little bit deeper, you start asking more questions

And you don't always like every answer that you get

And the love's still there but the love's changed, the love's different

It's more of a commitment and less of a feeling

And that's how I feel
