[Verse 1]
I'ma post-date this letter to a better me and carry on
Trying to open up my personal dialogue to the world beyond
Maybe if we could have a heart-to-heart
I'd donate my tragic opera to the charts 'til y'all see I'm the paragon
Maya told y'all if they tell you who they is, believe 'em
Well, I'm easily the best to ever do it from my region
And I'ma need them streams to reflect all this fluid I'm releasing
'Cause evеry time I flow, I add another unit to my legions
I'm 5'3", vеry likely I'm eclipsing every star that you can ID
With the naked eye, I'm telescopic, magnify your psyche and your sight, see
I'm inviting y'all to Skype me
'Cause I'm virtually the dopest ever called to do this, fight me, homie
I learned to scrap out of survival, scratching tooth and nail
That's why my sharpest proclamations got a ruthless feel
Seem like ages since I thought the world was rooting for me
But them blue boys still got them Rugers programmed on shoot to kill
Working twice as hard to get half as far 'cause your skin tone
Imagine addin' double Xs on top of the syndrome
Either they dismiss you or try to own what you issue
But it's my freedom that got the people subscribing to my opinions
So I treat every breath like I just barely cheated death's grip
And welcome every train of thought approach me like a death wish
My objective is to catch your ear, ensnare you with my text
'Til I can lead you and the rest of hip-hop's weary on an exodus
[Chorus]
I'll never go where they go
Wanna take me down the wrong road
I don't give 'em what they want
Just because they say so
Don't mean to stress it
I hope that you getting the point of the message from me
I just wanna be me

[Verse 2]
See, I'm self-made with no Forbes list
Got investment tips from the poorest lips
Told me wealth won't amount to nothing if your inner worth ain't from the source, it's
Why my stockpile got them hostile, trying to track down the coordinates
But they can't ever find the path 'less they can detach from it like a cordless
That's why my early work is full of all verses, no choruses
I just wanted to make it down to earth with a bold script and no flourishes
That's why my stash got a pair of Chuck's, just D's, Browns, no Norrises
'Cause deep down, got strong roots, never need critics' weak assurances
But as sure as the sky is aqua, they finna offer me them accolades
'Cause the culture's full of goofies like a preteen in that awkward phase
Run they mouth claiming G.O.A.T. when they just kids that ain't been properly raised
They ain't seen nothing ill since Black Thought flexed and left us stunned for days
Like Empress Menen, they'll never conquer my dominion
I'm cut from a different cloth, y'all Aeropostale, I'm selvedge denim
They don't make them like they used to, I'm a rarity, value ascending
And the appreciation through the roof in every crowd that I've ever been in
At the end of it all, I'm trying to find Nirvana through these releases
'Cause there's something in the way the whole world tends to love you 'til you left in pieces
Make you go hard with your soft spots under locked guard like a precinct
This is Sa-Roc, signing off from the Firmament's outer reaches
[Chorus]
I'll never go where they go
Wanna take me down the wrong road
I don't give 'em what they want
Just because they say so
Don't mean to stress it
I hope that you getting the point of the message from me
I just wanna be
I'll never go where they go
Wanna take me down the wrong road
I don't give 'em what they want
Just because they say so
Don't mean to stress it
I hope that you getting the point of the message from me
I just wanna be me
