[Verse 1: Marlon Craft]
Visions of who I could be
Hope that they align with visions of who I should be
Hope that intertwines with wisdom, that’s where the good be
But lately I’m perplexed cause I been gettin all I want, still tryna figure out what’s next
I begun to spread my wings but I’m still tryna find a nest
They all sayin this my time, so I’m tryna find a sec just to breathe
At times I wish I could relive to relieve
Even for the death of self doubt, need a minute to grieve
Shit, but ain't no sittin, shiverin in remembrance of the old you
How you stay present on a train that’s movin forward?
I’m at the point in life where fans buy me beer at the bar to show love but they didn’t know on my own I couldn’t afford it
The paradox of success and its implications
I live in behest of my inclinations
She say “That’s my dream to be recognized out in public,” I just stay quiet
If she only knew that mine’s to be admired in her eyes
It’s just funny, grass is always greener, somethin’s always missin here
Ironic, if you search you’ll always find what isn’t there
I’ll take bein sad over bein someone who didn’t care
But been tryin learn to appreciate what I did this year

[Chorus: Marlon Craft]
Slow it down young man, why you troubled, son?
Keep on makin your plans, you gon run with some
The winter gon feel warm when the summer comes
Can’t shake the work so muddy up your shirt, yo
See around my way, we don’t play a role
You don’t just be great cause you say it’s so
These days my mind’s playin, playin like the radio
Same four songs, ain't no days off, dog
[Verse 2: Marlon Craft]
They say all pain is relative
Me and mine close, man I feel like that’s my relative
It get on my nerves but helped shape me, I gotta let it live
Wonder bout the relief, if any at all, the cheddar give
Still ain't seen much paper, is it vitamin or sedative?
Guess we’ll know when they cut the check
I spent some time beside dealers like I would cut the deck
And my experience tell me that it’s the latter
So I’m thinkin bout money but also what to do after
I get it, we be consumed with consumption it’s paradox
At least could turn my room to a dungeon, I’ll bare my thoughts in peace
Shit, a lot of choices disguised as circumstances
A lot of actions disguised as risk if you circle chances
Sometimes it’s bold just to be consistent with simple stuff
To be savage is easy but it’s hard to give a fuck
“Live it up, live it up” what they tell you as they drag you down
But when that dirt come up out the rug, bet you don’t vacuum now
I was taught you deserve to get dunked on if you let em back you down
Boy you better scrap and foul, they gotta know you’ll show up
But ain't no substitute for really knowin how to play
So honestly you growin down if you don’t grow up every day

[Chorus: Marlon Craft]
Slow it down young man, why you troubled, son?
Keep on makin your plans, you gon run with some
The winter gon feel warm when the summer comes
Can’t shake the work so muddy up your shirt, yo
See around my way, we don’t play a role
You don’t just be great cause you say it’s so
These days my mind’s playin, playin like the radio
Same four songs, ain't no days off, dog
