lyrics

[Hook]
Late nights, wide awake,
Making moves, blocking hate,
If I said I'll make it then I'll do it,
By any means,
Rolling up, cause I get anxious,
Getting drunk and really faded,
No more contemplating, imma make it,
By any means necessary.

[Verse]
Been rolling up, just to calm my nerves,
Don't say that shit to brag,
But I gotta do what's best for me,
Don't care what makes you mad,
When I'm feeling low,
Gotta get high and make things right,
Focus on my insight,
With tunnel vision...
Now it's in sight,
When I take flight I feel so free,
Drowning out my misery,
No mystery,
You missing me like Bounty with no Mr. clean,
Got ideas fresh as listerine,
Hope I make em last,
Hope they point me to the cash,
Getting ass and better grass,
I'm a Leo with a fire mane,
Leaving with the finest dame,
Taking shots and hits,
Can't call it quits,
Get back to writing mane,
Your role here ain't important if I ain't there,
Because I'm the main,
(You get it?)
Don't fuck much with society,
Don't fuck much with sobriety,
My momma won't be proud but I gotta kill demons inside of me,
That's why I smoke these cali trees,
These white owls burn my calories,
I'm focused,
Oh so focused so music becomes my salary,
Used to care bout who was proud of me,
Now I wanna be proud of me,
Used to be blind to the lies,
But now I would even lie to me,
Damn,
What's my purpose,
I been lost and now searching,
I know my children are worth it,
But sometimes I feel so worthless,
This music thing is not perfect,
And everyday I'm learning,
Sure things seem good on the surface,
Thank these bottles for they service,
Give me confidence to send these beats off in the darkest hearses,
I mean,
You see what I'm getting at...
I mean,
It ain't the perfect solution to problems and all but it works for me,
I mean,
I mean,
I mean,
Still spending...

[Hook]
Late nights, wide awake,
Making moves, blocking hate,
If I said I'll make it then I'll do it,
By any means,
Rolling up, cause I get anxious,
Getting drunk and really faded,
No more contemplating, imma make it,
By any means necessary.
