Lyrics
Intro
Why control what you can't protect
Shoot your shots but you ain't hitting shit
People so lost gone in the head
It's like I'm watching The Walking Dead
Hook
I'm consciously aware so I don't take shit
Why live when you know it never makes sense
Still I'm so cool let the whole thing spin
Every clock is borrowed better watch that tick
No gratitude fuck a tip I barely knew your name
Now you want to speak on me like we was ever the same
Funny how a stranger turn anonymous overnight
Everybody got a story nobody got it right
Verse 1
Why these niggas hate Jae that's a different story
Centerpiece of the house self-explanatory
I always read the room before I move accordingly
Anybody on my scale better balance all that weight
We past first class still losing motion in the move
Make 'em hesitate I got nothing left to prove
You can have the front row I don't need the stage
I can see the whole play from a different page
People want control but can't protect what they claim
Want to hold the whole world can't maintain their own frame
I don't chase a rumor I let the source expose it
Everybody got a version I don't owe 'em a moment
I can hear the silence when the conversation shifts
Somebody changed the subject when the truth got close to it
I don't need to raise my voice to make a point stick
One look around the room tell me who ain't built for it
Hook
I'm consciously aware so I don't take shit
Why live when you know it never makes sense
Still I'm so cool let the whole thing spin
Every clock is borrowed better watch that tick
No gratitude fuck a tip I barely knew your name
Now you want to speak on me like we was ever the same
Funny how a stranger turn anonymous overnight
Everybody got a story nobody got it right
Verse 2
Since I'ma eat your soul while I masturbate
That's a masterpiece in the making let the critics wait
Read it back review it syndicate the phrase
Get it how you live should depend on how you live today
Everybody want the glory nobody want the weight
Everybody want the crown can't carry what it takes
Rumors in the hallway I don't entertain the noise
Half these people grown still don't know how to use they voice
Jumping to conclusions like the landing got a prize
Can't see what's in front of 'em got the whole world in their eyes
Masterpiece in progress don't confuse it with complete
I'm still moving pieces while they argue in the seats
Time don't do refunds it don't wait for your reply
You can spend your whole existence asking everybody why
Outro
Get it how you live don't just live how they say
Every second that you borrow got a price you can't repay
I been reading every room now I read between the days
Time is ticking in the background while we pose and make a face
Centerpiece or not the whole house still can shake
Can't control the whole world better choose what you create
