Escape Route Lyrics

Take me away

Feeling like I'm trying to escape

Demons smiling all in my face

I know I'm not defined by my mistakes

But that shit hard

Shit hard to erase

I said take me away

Feeling like I'm trying to escape

Demons smiling all in my face

I just seen my mama

She living at apartments

It really hurt my heart when

I seen her on that carpet

Her smile don't sparkle

She feeling like she lost it

Her trauma taking over

Her thoughts ain't the sharpest

But every day is better

Tomorrow isn't promised

So I'ma give it all

Like Kobe in the finals

Have to find a way

To make it out of here

Reflect on my decisions

And see how I got here

Replaying old pain

My eyes fill with tears

Baths in the sink

Living in motels

What we have for dinner

A can of Rotel

Nigga this ain't fake

I wouldn't tell a tale

This shit could be worse

So fuck it oh well

Ball till we fall and a nigga prevail

Can't quit now we already been through hell

Can't quit now we already billionaires

Take me away

Feeling like I'm trying to escape

Demons smiling all in my face

I know I'm not defined by my mistakes

But that shit hard

Shit hard to erase

I said take me away

Feeling like I'm trying to escape

Demons smiling all in my face

I know these niggas weren't going to make it easy for me

Turning on the stove when the heater wasn't working

Living my entire life feeling like a burden

Been abandoned with no hope of returning

Used to check my bank account before I made a purchase

Made it through that shit

Now deposits reoccurring

I be lurking lowkey with some trees burning

Pussy nigga better yield when we merging

When we merging

When we merging

Started asking the right questions

Now the tables turning

Knew I had a way with words started rehearsing

I be spitting all night till the wee mornings

My babe wake up and I'm

Taking off her undergarments

Start performing and I'm

Realigning all her organs

Had to take a leap of faith and

Move out to Portland

Now she on Cannon Beach looking

Thick and gorgeous

In that Christian Dior

Looking like a goddess

Might just be a model

You know a nigga came from the bottom

Big homie told me get em'

And I got em'

I'm on em'

I cannot be living like my family isn't broke

I cannot keep going through these days like a joke

New school year

Still wore the same clothes

At every funeral

A nigga had to make an oath

Take me away

Feeling like I'm trying to escape

Demons smiling all in my face

I know I'm not defined by my mistakes

But that shit hard

Shit hard to erase

I said take me away

Feeling like I'm trying to escape

Demons smiling all in my face

Respect yourself and

Show yourself

Show your worth
