06 ’Til Infinity / Porch Tales
[Intro]
Ah, ah man, yeah, look

[Verse 1]
Call again, everybody needs ten fold, the spend
Little brother hasn't made the money for the rent
As they kill him they make it the truth that they spite him for water won't drip off his skin
Y'all are full of pity, and i'd say it swear
Painted my nails a pastel colour coz why should I care?
Raining outside of my window, it heals the pain
Stuck along a journey, tryna find my lane
Her desire couldn't captivate my soul
As she called me into her arms, I call it the nerd charm
Weird funny thing about your adolescent actions
I been tryna make it right since the first it happened
Like they said, ready set go, pistol whip to kill the tone
But i'm relaxing hoping everybody gets along
Had a loss today for what i'd do I wouldn't know
Schemes and plans to call for Jaden to pay the prison and wake up real late in the middle of Mini to instigate them
Y'all ain't messing with the people who would try to listen
Throw your Will into the Burrows to complete the mission
Spitting so hard that my tooth just came out the bristle
What I say can be enough to keep the world turning
In your final hours, we got violent power
Lucky you were there and I was homeless
Sofas, laying on my back, tryna write a track
B Flat, tryna harmonise with the music
'06, year that I was born with a colourful gift
Wisdom I spit, told them straight coz i'm honest
Look at me, i'm flawless
Man what a hell of a song, need to stop rhyming this shit
Coz i've been going too long on the rosters
Change up the beat before they keep me on a leash
Final message to the priest, better keep your robe on
[Verse 2: Beat switch]
I've been here and been that motherfucker with the essence
Wish that they took me away from, learning in my lessons
Nothing bad in my vision, I don't get why you're stressing
Smoke that Cali fog, a demon just possess me
Mercy, tryna hose down with ultralight beams
Of course intimidation has forced me too bleed
A blessing and a curse, my bedroom was a purse
In that tiny ass room, I would still make it work
Coz I am him, Whyte Cloud just, took a load of money
From your pockets where it's stuffy like his nose when it be runny (sniff)
Ya soul belongs to my company we're taking it and feeding off the money that you earned since you were born
I can't repeat a lot of shit that I have found out
Sick and tired of making money down a bad route
On the porch, what I heard it was a bad shout
Called out, fake your death but stay online on your account

[Verse 3]
Fuck it I just realised that it might take some work
Bake a muffin in the oven but you pull out soil and dirt
Damn that hurt, but I move on like it ain't, something casual that happens to all people on the planet, coz it is casual
Heavy like collateral, pain inflicted on your body and your brain
Tryna navigate the industry just like a maze
But once again in my experience when I get it, they won't act the same
You made some mistakes in my life
But that shit happens all the time in hindsight
Waking up damn so early, I don't want to go to school
Today or tomorrow, they don't want to see me too
Hands on the bottles, get your hands away from me
Every time I tried to write, I would try to fight
Always been too strict and against my views
Never gave my peers a chance to hear me out for what I do (do, do, do, do)
[Outro: Pharrell Williams]
So, what should you tell yourself when uh, (hear me out for what I do) when you failed at something or something didn't you know, go the way you thought it would (yeah)
Uh, you know, we all have egos
And it's o-, it's okay to have a sense of self-awareness and identity
But it's not okay to have an ego because what an ego does is
The ego is a funny, it's a funny, it's a funny entity within the human brain
It is on your side when you are doing great
But have you ever noticed when you, when you think you've failed
It's the ego in your mind that tells you "this is so bad" "everyone's looking at you"
You know, you start to sweat across your forehead and you're like
"Oh my god I can't believe this is happening, the whole entire world is watching"
And none of it is true, when you're doing great you shouldn't listen to that voice
When you're not doing as great you shouldn't listen to that voice, because it's not good
When you're doing great it's gonna get you hooked on, that feeling
So that, when you come down, an- and you
Coz we all- life is a rollercoaster, there's valleys and peaks
When you hit that valley, if you can't deal
Then you won't make it
So, for me, I would say, first off uh
Get rid of the ego, and then, I would, switch the word failure
For, lesson (lesson, lesson, lesson)
