[00:06.72]I can't hold back I gotta let it go
[00:13.71]Held on for too long I gotta let it go
[00:16.29]If I don't find my way then I'll never know
[00:18.99]Who I am truly let the beat move me
[00:22.38]Then I'll go where it takes me
[00:23.97]Releasing all the ****I've been holding in lately
[00:26.58]At this rate see fam it's bound to break me
[00:29.31]Mess around and give new meaning to crazy
[00:31.89]And lately I've been dwelling on this fact
[00:34.65]Discovering new ways to keep my sanity in tact
[00:37.32]I can't get back to carefree living
[00:39.99]Rent's thirteen plus a month where we're living
[00:42.63]So kids right now is a scary vision
[00:45.33]With my income support I'll barely give them
[00:47.97]Afraid at times but strength's rarely missing
[00:50.58]I crave to shine although every prison's
[00:53.31]A bit over-crowed they'll make an exception
[00:56.13]For a brother my size about my complexion
[00:58.80]Hell no cuz that's out of the question
[01:01.47]Though I'm often stressed and I fight with depression
[01:03.99]I realized life is a lesson I don't always
[01:06.84]Like where I'm heading so I write with aggression
[01:09.39]Hard to be polite when you're stressing
[01:11.43]Not a thing's pc
[01:12.69]About my a-alikes and my brethren
[01:14.46]Made the mic our weapon found peace on loose leaf
[01:17.37]Classics manufactured on no more than two sheets
[01:20.31]I black out on bright white for you chief
[01:22.98]And rap 'bout how this trife life is too deep
[01:25.41]It's an ancient epic not a news brief
[01:28.41]Same ****under the sun just a new thief
[01:30.75]Man I gotta get it together handle my business
[01:33.45]Maybe if I handled it better they couldn't steal this
[01:36.18]God given talent that I've taken for granted
[01:38.64]Still no call backs labels making me panic
[01:41.40]All the while black trying to chase this and manage
[01:44.01]A relationship avoiding heartache and damage
[01:46.77]To my soul d**n it does a number to my spirit
[01:49.23]So I cry out in pain knowing someone will hear it
[01:51.84]If I don't dumb down will they run from my lyrics
[01:54.57]My fear is some will shun the things I hold dearest
[01:57.30]So hear this from now on letting it all go
[01:59.97]Like there's no tomorrow 'fore I drown in a bottle
[02:02.64]Of top shelf liq' with a twist of my sorrow
[02:05.16]If I finish it all yo we'll both be hollow
[02:07.98]Life is what you make it is the motto I follow
[02:10.65]Hard to slow your roll when you've been living full throttle
[02:13.32]Trying to make my dreams manifest but it's hard though
[02:15.99]Feel like I got a better chance at hitting the lotto
[02:18.63]See the blood sweat and tears staining my cargos
[02:21.21]From slaying fans waving hands screaming out bravo
[02:24.06]And encore like jay -26th letter
[02:26.64]Glad you think I'm d**e but I'm trying to get better
[02:29.25]Some think I'm barely scratching the surface
[02:31.50]And I've probably held back in over half of thes
[02:34.65]I've ever written and I probably shouldn't spit'em
[02:37.32]'Cause that's about as pointless as watered down venom
[02:40.02]You should feel it in your heart and veins when it's in them
[02:42.45]But it seems it's barely felt when the aim was to kill them so I
[02:45.87]I can't hold back I gotta let it go
[02:48.42]Held on for too long I gotta let it go
[02:51.00]If I don't find my way then I'll never know
[02:53.64]Who I am truly let the beat move me
[02:57.24]I'll go where it takes me take me home burns
[02:59.97]I'll go where it takes me take me home
[03:02.61]I'll go where it takes me take me home god
[03:05.37]I'll go where it takes me take me home
[03:08.25]I'll go where it takes me take me home lord
[03:10.65]I'll go where it takes me take me home
[03:13.65]Take take me home take take me home
[03:19.65]Take take me home take take me home let it go
