Jinari Kemet - The Way

If you want me you can find me in the sunken place
And I've been falling from my highest point I wanna say
My demons came and I invited them I didn't bother fighting
Someone told me I aspired just to hit the fucking ground
So I could spread my wings and fly with them, I'm coming up
I'm moving slow and I can see these other niggas stuck
Cause they don't know the shit I been through man I seen enough
And yeah I might've been impatient but I figured out a way
And even though it ain't the safest I
Promise I'm never returning again
I got a history you might condemn
There's something to gain from the fear of decent
If I had a soul I don't know where it went
Pardon my life I don't mean to offend
I'm losing my mind but I still wanna win
I'm looking for answers I know they're within
I hope what I find, is worth what I spent
Cause now I'm hollow inside
So if I take a hit again I don't know how I'll survive
My worst side is the only reason that I'm alive
So if it fails then I'm giving up and saying goodbye, I got
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Look at the picture i wanted a show
Are we feeling the same
Swerving and spinning, I'm losing control
With no one to blame
Stuck in a battle that nobody knows
So what do I say? Tell me what do I say
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Look at the picture i wanted to show
That I wasn't insane
Swerving and spinning, but under control
I'mma stay in my lane
And I had to get it by selling my soul
And now I'm on The Way
I'm coming up I'm on The Way
Now tell me where the fuck do they do that
Been worried about perceptions and obsessed with the new bag
Concern for your feelings had me stressed tell me who mad
I yearn to leave my critics all impressed and it's too bad
That keeping my image in tact
Is the action that was holding me back
Validation had me picking for scraps
Couldn't paint it now the picture is black
No debate I got this weight on my back
Funny ain't it? When you see where I'm at
Sad to say that I'm afraid of the facts
Wait what am I saying I'm finna attack, hold up
Straight up out the mother fucking gate I'm a killer
The Way I'm looking at it you gone have to say its my dinner
I keep a couple troubles on my plate and making them bigger
Would never justify my struggles would you pray for the sinner
Who couldn't behave, you would never be safe
What if he couldn't be saved, would you give him leeway
Giving the man a replay, bet he would only betray
Wonder what would he say, does he care if we pray
Tell me why you need faith
That's what I said, and I question all accounts
Maybe I'm reckless, the blood I bled
Won't make me shut my mouth, now I'm invested
Stuck in my head and I'm searching for an out
Born a skeptic, and I ain't dead but I'm
Six feet deep in doubt and I got
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Look at the picture i wanted a show
Are we feeling the same
Swerving and spinning, I'm losing control
With no one to blame
Stuck in a battle that nobody knows
So what do I say? Tell me what do I say
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Look at the picture i wanted to show
That I wasn't insane
Swerving and spinning, but under control
I'mma stay in my lane
And I had to get it by selling my soul
And now I'm on The Way
I'm coming up I'm on The Way
Yeah
Woah
I'm on The Way
Yeah
Woah
I'm coming up, somebody tell him that I'm on the way
Yeah
Hold up
Somebody tell him that I'm on the way
Hold up
I'm looking at God like, tell him that I'm on the
