[Verse 1: Josh Sallee]
I don't really got no time I can waste
I don't wanna clock in at a job every day
I'ma have to keep my pride out the way
'Cause right now this dream ain't provide anything
I was feeling lost, now I'm feeling back
Now I feel like nobody can tell me how to act
I'm confident I got this shit, I'm locking in, been blossoming
Go rocket ship, I'm off the lens
I process them, it's constant work, it's all that matters
All that's after is not a factor
Thought I had it automatic, caught me lacking
Call it tragic, call it what, it's two L's, two E's
Things ain't as great as the numbers might seem
So I've been low-key and I still got faith in the G-O-D
Not on speak, can you please be discreet?
Everybody that I think, I need me a drink
Compete with myself [?] but they cannot see me weak, but they gon' think that I'm weak
Tears in the hallway, I'ma let them calls hang
I don't ever drop it so they never call me
[Chorus: Josh Sallee]
Tears in the hallway, in the hallway
In the hallway, tears in the hallway
Tears in the hallway, in the hallway
In the hallway, tears in the hallway
[Verse 2: K.A.A.N.]
Paint pics like the art depart
I can see it in your eyes, you ain't had the heart
Just a mask in disguise how you played the part
Illuminate with the light when the nights are dark
Packed in with the animals like Noah's Ark
You going nowhere fast, boy your car's in park
I tend to run it like a race when I pass 'em all
Take your fucking head off if it's cash involved
Never stuck in a rut, I adjust quick, break shit like a mosh pit
Another level like top this, I'm inhaling the toxins, tick tock as the clock spins
No it's never been an option, don't believe well watch me
Confident not cocky
The bright lights look glossy until you're under them and then you're burnt out
Turns out, you never really had a chance
I did the math, you was only getting half advances
Terrible standards coming from the horrible standards
Get the whole fucking plot when you take your chances
I would never shuck and jive with the feminine dancers
Said the game look sick, shit ill as cancer
Gotta watch for the traps and the dirty handshakes
The ground that I stand won't break in an earthquake
Think I want it all in the worst way
Surrounded by actors and y'all rehearsing
Bitch I been a bastard since my birthday
I'ma just bask in the pain I'm immersed in
Get the last laugh, let 'em lie where they lie
We don't do the games, no not on this side
I'ma be the same til the day I die
Only on me shall I rely, god
[Chorus: Josh Sallee]
Tears in the hallway, in the hallway
In the hallway, tears in the hallway
Tears in the hallway, in the hallway
In the hallway, tears in the hallway
