Do What I Do

Going out in flames is not the way I thought you would
I’ve always felt mistook and misunderstood
Pushing everyday, every moment that I’m awake
Other people run, gotta get up out the way
Earthquake, china cabinet drops the plates
I’m a bull and I know it, are you afraid?

Hook:
You did what you did now I’mma do what I do
(Ready to fight, not afraid to follow through)

Laces tied up tight like I’m about to take flight
You weren’t sure before but watch, I just might
Taking all of my might not to tell you off
Anger comes at a cost, so Imma hold off
Moments of pain, but they don’t last
Was it hard to watch my feet walk past?

Hook:
You did what you did now I’mma do what I do
(Hold back and move on, I’m strong, and I’m gone)

Recollecting what happened and how I kept going
Knowing full well I’d face it alone, overflowing
Showing no one but me
The side I used to hide
Golden child with cheap rent and a studio
My happy place pulls like an undertow
But then sadness crosses paths with my badass
Wish I didn’t have to look back
Primetime, right now, is all we got
Like it or not, shit or get off the pot

Hook:
You did what you did now I’mma do what I do
(This is my moment, made the choice now Imma own it)

Everyday feels the same, the distance I complain
One way ticket, made that decision back in 17’
Could get off the train but that’d be a waste of steam
Engine chugs along, I see lots of pawns
Chess is complex but not too much
Gotta plan ya moves, but be ready to adjust

Hook:
You did what you did now I’mma do what I do
(I will not follow you, life goes on, tomorrow anew)
