[Chorus: Grieves]
I don't really feel like waiting
I been down this road so many times, still I can’t find my way, no
Feeling like the shine has faded
I've sat on this throne a thousand times
Now I might abdicate it

[Verse 1: Grieves]
For the sake of my goodness
I tried to carry myself with grace and amazement
Understandin' my roots will forever come from the basement
Made it to the highest of councils without arrangements
But all you ever saw was a logo beside my greatness
I bled my truth for as long as I could and then I
Covered up the illness that started eatin’ my insides
The highs and the lows
Pressin' pause on the end time
Feelin' what's expected of me is to work and then die
Shit, guess I gotta be that one to make that change
Life ain't gonna sit around and wait for me to feed the flames
Thinkin' bloodline, thinkin' what it means to make a name
And thinkin' sunshine and how we chase away the rain with a drumline
Baby, I believe that
You ain’t gotta love me, you just gotta let me be that
Person with a million mistakes, causin’ feedback
Keep the crown and thrown, I don't think I really need that
Let me go
[Chorus: Grieves]
I don’t really feel like waiting
I been down this road so many times, still I can't find my way, no
Feeling like the shine has faded (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I've sat on this throne a thousand times
Now I might abdicate it

[Verse 2: Horrorshow]
For my own goodness' sake, I’ve been forsaken
A bitter pill is the only thing I'm tastin'
A bit of time ain't the only thing it's takin'
Like transplant patients, I'm gettin' sick of waitin'
Tryna take the reins, but my hand's shakin'
Handshake agreements, all just campaignin'
Watchin' as they arrange the next coronation
While facin' arraignments for abdicatin'
This sandcastle I built grain by grain
Tides changed, watched it all wash away in the rain
Caught between the left and right sides of my brain
Right now, all that's left is a splittin' migraine
Heavy is the head of the king amongst mentors
Enemies and friends, frenemies and ends
Succession plans ain't ever recession proof
When the levy breaks, I'll be damned, just one thing left to do, uh

[Chorus: Grieves]
I don't really feel like waiting
I been down this road so many times, still I can't find my way, no
Feeling like the shine has faded (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
I've sat on this throne a thousand times
Now I might abdicate it
