BADLAND - HOLD THE LIGHT

I know that God got me but I'm stuck inside my ways
Tryna build a subtle confidence but ego in the way
My energy contagious, every day's a brighter day
Sittin' in this classroom but my mind flying' away
Too many distractions all around me
I give the biggest props to any itty bitty rappers talking' down, or tryna doubt me
On my own level, pyramidal, and my rhymes colder than the north pole
Sentimental

In the middle of adulthood and being a kid
This my last summer coming up, I'm bouta play it like the Steelers did
On my last nerve, but I'm calm just like a Theremin
Had to get my mind offa sum, so I just grab the pen

Staring at the ceiling, feeling like it couldn't get any worse
But I love my life and my homies are always down to earth
Honesty is value, take it or leave it
How you tryna ball but got nobody on your defense? Jesus
People changin' like the seasons
Watch my peers grow into men and women, and they finding out their own thesis
Ask you yourself and yours what your dreams is
Keep some armor on your mental, always picking up the pieces

Mental resilience a challenge in it's own right
Lookin' at pictures of my life on my phone right
Like
Gotta lift up the people in they own right
When you feeling well, go and share it, but when you not, you gotta hold the light
