Uncle Shield - This Is What It's About (feat. RyanMak4k & Detox)

This is what it's about yeah
(Uncle Shield)
Expectation verse reality
That's the root to all the problems that be stressing me
Always pressing (Always pressing), always draining (Always draining)
I seek peace and rest in things that will not work for me
Only later on, when that 'high' is gone (When that high is gone)
Do I really see that there's more to life (That there's more to life)
Take each day at a time
Do the best I can (Do the best I can), cause
This is what it's about, This is what it's about
Everything we know be coming straight off of a screen
Phones up, at this point it's more like a routine
I asked this shawty if she wanna come over tonight
She said Nah, cause she wants me out of sight yeah
This isn't no fairytale from TV or a storybook
Life throwing things at me so one day I'd sit down writing down this hook
Y'all don't know how long it took
I said y'all don't know how long it took
Expectation verse reality (Haibo!)
That's the root to all the problems that be stressing me (Yebo!)
Always pressing (always pressing), always draining (Yebo)
I seek peace and rest in things that will not work for me (Haibo)
Let's go (Haibo), let's go (When that high is gone)
Let's go (Yebo), let's go (That there's more to life)
Let's go (Haibo), let's go (Do the best I can)
(This is what it's about, This is what it's about)
Don't compare yourself to the rest
You'll just wind up being depressed
We're all on a different quest
Trying to be known from east to west
Look in the mirror
That is the person you gotta outdo
This is what it's about, This is what it's about yeah!
Ask yourself will I make it out
Cause I know the road is dusty now
And the snow is coming back
Everybody grab your jackets
Cause I know it's getting too cold
And I know it's getting too warm inside
And I know it's getting too cold
Cause I know these bitches on overdrive
How she whisper in my ear, I ain't really trying to listen
Save it later please
I be with my niggas and you know we never gonna
How we get the g'
I don't need no shawty that be messy like Caresha, please
And you know I'm trying to get her on her knees
This is what it's about, This is what it's about
This is what it's about (Yeah)
(Uncle Shield)
