Rob Reese - FENCES

Things don’t have to go your way
You won’t always have a say
In the way it pans out
But it don’t help much if you filled up with doubt
Head in the clouds
We all out here tryna figure it out
Talking too loud
Sorry sometimes I forget to keep it down
Cause there’s people around
That don’t want us to be making a sound
The world don’t fit everyone’s equation
Most of us fiend for the love we’re chasing
Try to do the math but keep on erasing
What I write down building my frustration
And I know that I might never get the answer
But imma keep on searching like the cure for cancer
I might never get to see myself as the savior
So imma keep on focusing and stack up my paper
Save it for later
Til I meet my maker
Do myself a favor
And replace my creator
With love for my neighbor
Even if they’re a hater
Imma show em love
Cause I believe that’s just human nature
You and I are like two kids
Hopping over the backyard fences
Just to give each other some attention
Please don’t tell my mother I’m suspended
She’s got enough on her plate
I don’t need to add to it
Don’t wanna seem like a bad kid
Only adding to the baggage
Cause we ain’t never had shit
Brain fucked up
Telling myself that I made it all up
Don’t wanna interrupt
Just wanted to stop by and give y’all love
And that’s all I really want to do
Anything that helps to get you through
The moment that you’re dealing with
I know it’s tragic
But don’t come close to giving up
I know you got this
Even if you’re out of magic
No more hat tricks
You can still be what you want
Without any theatrics
Things don’t have to go your way
You won’t always have a say
In the way it pans out
But it don’t help much if you filled up with doubt
Head in the clouds
We all out here tryna figure it out
Talking too loud
Sorry sometimes I forget to keep it down
Cause there’s people around
That don’t want us to be making a sound
You and I are like two kids
Hopping over the backyard fences
Just to give each other some attention
Please don’t tell my mother I’m suspended
She’s got enough on her plate
I don’t need to add to it
Don’t wanna seem like a bad kid
Only adding to the baggage
Cause we ain’t never had shit
