Metaphor Lyrics

Yeah, turn my headphones down a little bit

Yeah, valid

Took the time to write these lines and found my mind

Is tryna hide the pain inside I don't know why it's tryna lie

And push aside that side and find a place to slide behind and blind me

From the fact that I recognize that this is by design

It's time to let it go, get it out, set it free, air it out

Spread it's wings outside it's cage then fly away like hair that's out

Of place which is ironic cause it's like nobody hears me out

Well that's a stretch sometimes it just won't gel that well

And at that point it's not something to care about

I know I'm rambling, right now confiding in people feels like I'm gambling

Cause I don't know if they gon' use what I tell em as ammo if we argue

So when they ask me what's wrong my mind be scrambling

People treat your life like Jordan 1's barely there for the lows

But love the highs, try to get profit off of it when they know

That it's hot but when it's done you questioning if they your bros

Shit, I guess that's how it goes

Now it figures I'm climbing a mountain, swimming through rivers

For people who won't do shit for me or even consider

And that's where me and them differ

Cause I can't lead em to that water and also amount to something way bigger

Than they would ever do in terms of favors

If they were led to that water it would turn poison and no longer be safe for

Somebody to cater to em

But then they blame me for no longer giving my service and say there's nobody faker to em

Shit, they'll catch the metaphor

We're on our test to world peace, that's what I'm meta for

If she can't be my world, peace, don't know what I met her for

She passed up a dime and then she met a four

I'm dominant as Megazord, I dominate competitors

That's where my mind at

Vietnam how I'm selfish

Trained to think bout where mine at

I'm looking out for me just tryna make sure I'm straight

Keeping your eyes open doesn't always help you die late

Running the streets will always get your life taken for good

Because the grim reaper always keeps his face in the hood

Ready to snatch your soul and then to make it worse

In the garden all the good roses are taken first

I'm learning new things in my life that's shaping my perspective

I no longer share a lot but when I do I'm quite selective

These are thoughts that I've denied, yeah these are my rejections

In my songs I see myself, yeah these are my reflections

Shit, yeah, something to think about, tell y'all
