Paper Hoodie - Closed Eyez

Fool me once fool me twice, that's a shitty statement
The way that niggas be operating is full of hatred
I'm full of patience, but I won't let you set me off
Collecting flaws in the times that I been sectioned off
When stress evolves I don't need a breather
Heart swollen ion need a keeper
I got this voice inside my mind always telling me I need to see her
Like I'm addicted to a drug and I need to feed it
Yeah, too many days in these foreign places
In foreign cases I don't need to be placed in casual conversation
I'm not a native, so leave me alone
They see my camo and fearing for the state of they home
I'm just a soldier doing what I'm told, what's the reason?
Well they get pissy when I ask I guess it's a secret
I dream of leaving, the people need me
I'm the one who gotta show the world lyrical greatness is something I'll achieve
Man… deployment ain't easy
Take it one day at a time I miss my sister she needs me
Waiting make me queasy, all the thoughts that's ahead
Mental discipline, I quiet all the thoughts in my head
Fighting demons I had to get em off of me
Now I'm, feeling myself like I lost my keys
Radiating positivity as y'all can see
Grinding in the studio is where I often be
Take advantage writing lyrics in a iPhone
Automatic I can do this with my eyes closed
I don't mind tho
I'm with Dave no Chappell this my show
Time coming and the moment will rise
But you'll never know it if you never open your eyes
Open your eyes
But you'll never know it if you never open your eyes
How you supposed to see your moment with those closed eyes
It snuck up on me had me stuck like I froze time
In most guys she could figure em out
I couldn't open up I only knew the feeling of doubt, I'm sitting out
Pushing what I loved aside tryna chase the paper
Just to realize it ain't everything I couldn't take it
It left me dead now I'm looking for recitation
You can never break my spirit life is what you make it
When niggas hating, I never let opinions phase me
Unless you giving living wisdom and I feel it change me
Guess I got a lot more to learn and I'm willing to see
Just don't treat me like I'm stupid when I'm willing to speak
Give my energy to swim I won't give it to sink
I tried to change cuz I'm awake and everybody asleep
But when my time cuz you don't gotta ask me
I'll be waiting and ready you niggas shouldn't have gassed me
Take advantage writing lyrics in a iPhone
Automatic I can do this with my eyes closed
I don't mind tho
I'm with Dave no Chappell this my show
Time coming and the moment will rise
But you'll never know it if you never open your eyes
Open your eyes
But you'll never know it if you never open your eyes
