Ghost Town in a Snowglobe (feat. Cabes)

I'm happy doing me, and I'm happy with the man I am I thank the lord above cause he's got me in his plans And now the rivers flowing and we blowing by the dam And everyone who doubted me is reaching out their hands Yeah, and your two cents ain't nothing but a nuisance Save the blueprint, I've got the map to do this Who this? What they asking, save the fake compassion I can't fix the shit you lacking, I express the things I'm asking, digging deep inside this rapping Lost in dark hours, I let my soul grow Searching for a home inside these poems, walking in the shadows, I go home A long road, back to paradise I see a low glow From the stars inside the sky, a ghost town in a snow globe Time goes by and I'm still the same me I've been lost in the things that I just can't be And time goes on and I can't slow down Yeah, I'm looking for some life in this old ghost town Scrolling through my phone, trying to lose myself in repetition Say my hands are on the helm but lost at sea, I'm drifting Reject the man I am in favor of the one I hate Cause he's drowning out my reason, feel my will about to break Check the tape, I remember being proud of who I am Now I look into a mirror, see a failure I can't stand Break the glass to flee, but it digs itself into my hand See my blood stained in the snow, can't believe how long I ran Failed to address, the progress, of just how far I've come My reflection whispers to me, convince me I'm with none My friends tell me, get healthy, but my mind's going numb My biggest op is in the mirror, to my head he holds a gun I know I asked to live, but I kinda wish he pulled the trigger Know I'm meant for more, but my eyes can't see the bigger picture In the museum of my peers, see their lives all in a row But I look at mine and see a valley laden snow Time goes by and I'm still the same me I've been lost in the things that I just can't be And time goes on and I can't slow down Yeah, I'm looking for some life in this old ghost town Once upon a time, man, I was just a kid Looking in the mirror, scheming ways to make it big With this life and a dream, I was trying to make it fit Betting on myself, sleepless nights in the crib I take it back, me and CJ rapping while they napping Fantasizing being on a stage while they all clapping Endless nights in the studio, breaking and snapping Manifesting all we ever wanted, man, we need it to happen And now I look back, I smile, thinking about the happy times Me and my homie, ain't concerned about nothing but some rhymes This was all I ever wanted, man, I lived for those nights But now those days are dead, we living two separate lives But that's okay, we both dreamers, peep the track if you ain't heard it We talked about it years ago, but now we live on verbiage On a stage in front of y'all reciting what we learned And I don't want this life to ever change And I'm thankful we're still working Time goes by and I'm still the same me I've been lost in the things that I just can't be And time goes on and I can't slow down Yeah, I'm looking for some life in this old ghost town
