Outlet - Lost In My Ways

As soon as I turned back around I knew I was on a mission
On this very specific quest ya' know
It was bigger than just wanting to be a musician or do movies
It was about
All 'bout the money nah all 'bout the music
Money and power influence misuse it
The music and pain my gateway soothe it
Without it I'd be down bad and clueless
They see me around saying who this?
Mistakes made wouldn't be made if I knew this
Wouldn't be made if I knew this
Just spending my days all sipping away
My joy and my pride been slipping away
Lost in my ways no faith to god pray
Always wonder if I see the next day
Gotta get through it with the smile all fake
Gotta get through it so like stars they rate
Gotta get through it even with the hate
Gotta get through it so my death delay
Death delay-ay-ay-ay
Life been passing like a blunt in May
Good life looking like a needle in hay
C'est la vie it was bound to be this way
Prove it gon' toss my hat in the fray
Committed to a cause like I'm the K
Don't mean the three I mean the O's
Wanna walk 'round Paris with too many hoes
Cause that's the dream ain't it?
What men need ain't it?
Man you quit playing?
Nah you still playing
So imma keep hating
I still hope you make it
Just know you can't fake it
Sometimes you need patience
All 'bout the money nah all 'bout the music
Money and power influence misuse it
The music and pain my gateway soothe it
Without it I'd be down bad and clueless
They see me around saying who this?
Mistakes made wouldn't be made if I knew this
Wouldn't be made if I knew this
Life like a trap mean hoes and money
Making us fat it's kinda funny
Met this nice girl still called her hunny
Still called her hunny
Still counting my hundreds
Make me look cunning
But pockets be empty cause bills always hunting
Look man I'm just stunting
So sorry for fronting
Yeah I'm sorry-y-y
I remember my soul was conflicted
The drugs almost had me addicted
Help try come close and I kicked it
Can't lie sometimes I miss it
Sometimes I miss it but I can still live it
Some people not living the drugs yeah they feigning
Feel like they still need it 'til they been misleaded
The reaper come creeping
All 'bout the money nah all 'bout the music
Money and power influence misuse it
The music and pain my gateway soothe it
Without it I'd be down bad and clueless
They see me around saying who this?
Mistakes made wouldn't be made if I knew this
Wouldn't be made if I knew this
