Lost In Translation Lyrics

From deep inside the heart of Texas, I was 15

Traveled to SFO, where I was walking down a swift street

Used to window shop and dream of money, 'til it hits me

I don't even know how to love-- shit, I'm 23

Pardon my French

So excruciating maintaining like I ain't a sinner

Said it's only thanks to Jesus that I breathe

I lost a lot of hope this year, gave up my dreams

But then remembered, who could write my story better than me?

So, I return to the page, like I'm indifferent to the outcome

I wonder how come I seemed to fall off so fast

Only 4 years now, I've been spitting these raps

But it took me 4 to learn to budget, now I'm saving cash

Web developing, I'm activating, aggravated, captivated on my sixth sense

Hold up, let me switch the tense

Masquerading insecurity, my ego was intense

And now somehow, I'm supposed to learn how to destress

Ha, wonder what's next, give my everything into this game and nothing less

IQ high, meaning that I question to the heavens

And wonder why I'm broke and, why I'm broke and stressed

Seem like everything in life's a paradox, I guess

Hope and pray that your experience is different, God bless

God bless

God bless 'em, I hope they know

Life like this is the outcome

It's what I get for trying to learn to live without some

Prayer and meditation and relationship with heavens up above

No, the game is not enough, we lost in translation
