You decide who you're able to trust when both sides are the same corner, evil as fuck
And I'm the one who's gonna show you how to elevate your brain
From the things you need to overcome that are standing in your way as if those
Who even know me don't look at me strange when I love to laugh at how absurd this world is to embrace
Or whenever I'm feeling happy is not creepy as much to a lot of people when I come around, like what is he, nuts?

It's just a lot what I value now I didn't value then
And even though I'm underground the sun is shining in
And I don't ever want to turn my back on all that I've done
That's been a major part of my life ever since I was young but I know better
You're never letting evil surround yourself closer than I wanted to when no-one's around
Playing tricks on my mind like a friend that I trust whom I know I shouldn't but we both work together so much
That when life's beating me up these records that I scratch on I haven't heard the last of some positive reactions

It's true I saw myself in people I knew I thought who felt the same way as we were paying our dues
Acting as if it's not a challenge to us talented cats proud of the fact that it's all become a balancing act but now I know

(Don't let the pressure drop)
(Don't let the music stop)

Whose side are you on when nothing is wrong as if not being involved has been keeping you calm
I knew taking the verse to the extreme could disturb others instead of turning it into something to learn from it and got
Left for dead to awaken my whole sole approach and care for those who never show me where it hurts the most
To see myself when I look at you now without the need of being thanked of ever helping you out
I lost respect for myself while I was trying to earn yours and enough miles away from even coming up too short
