Stance - In These Shoes (Dedicated to Sam)

Ooh
Yuh, yuh
'Cause it's that good of a song
I'm gonna miss you, buddy
Uh
Uh

I'm workin' it harder
Call me a starter
Never gon' sub this
Ooh
I'm a go farther
Soakin' up water
Just so I can drip these moves
But why am I bothered?
Life's gettin' larger
Steady with the fuck shit
Ooh
So I gotta be smarter
Make like a potter
Self-made in these shoes
In these shoes
It ain't a cruise up in these shoes
Uh
There's shit to lose
Up in these shoes
Got shit to prove
Huh
In these shoes
In these shoes
Found my groove up in these shoes
I'm in the mood even with the blues

This that good good
But I ain't no pussy
Stare my problems in the face
And show them how they push me
Found my limit
I was sittin' there with no damn cushion
But to win it
Be uncomfy
Don't forget the mission
I know I got it, why did I stop it
Knowin' that I locked this in
(Ch-ching)
Have a ball, get poppin'
Even though I dropped it
Feelin' all the shock back then
Get out the chair and fit in, rockin'
Gotta play, no, you can't pause it
Keep goin', nigga,
It ain't an option
But why I feel that I lost it?
I know that the answer's simple
I'm chillin' too much in my mental
Haven't kept up with my kinfolk
But I swear it's all accidental
I'm hearin' I'm not so perfect
I'm here and I've felt so worthless
Gettin' there seems quite too urgent
And the thought, I've gotta reverse it

I'm workin' it harder
Call me a starter
Never gon' sub this
Ooh
I'm a go farther
Soakin' up water
Just so I can drip these moves
But why am I bothered?
Life's gettin' larger
Steady with the fuck shit
Ooh
So I gotta be smarter
Make like a potter
Self-made in these shoes
In these shoes
It ain't a cruise up in these shoes
Uh
There's shit to lose
Up in these shoes
Got shit to prove
Huh
In these shoes
In these shoes
Found my groove up in these shoes
I'm in the mood even with the blues

Fake it 'til I make it
(Yuh)
I feel that's a GOT-damn lie
But then I embraced it
The day's fatigue had wrung me dry
I get real wired
Then, I'm tired
My rationale, I fired
The consequence was dire
I'm Sam leavin' outta my shire
Despite all this, I'd turn up
Shine so bright, and then I'd burn up
Caused a fright, my stomach churned up
Oust my light, it had me curled up
(Yuh, yuh)
Fetal position
Inner division
Lacked the vision I knew I fit in
Fog had kicked in
Easy pickin's
Looked around, knew I was missin'
Gotta slow it down
Need to take a breath
Gotta give what I have left
Clean myself from this mess
Double check 'cause I got wrecked
Gettin' back on two feet, then
I'ma wait on what's next
Right?

I'm workin' it harder
Call me a starter
Never gon' sub this
Ooh
I'm a go farther
Soakin' up water
Just so I can drip these moves
But why am I bothered?
Life's gettin' larger
Steady with the fuck shit
Ooh
So I gotta be smarter
Make like a potter
Self-made in these shoes
In these shoes
It ain't a cruise up in these shoes
Uh
There's shit to lose
Up in these shoes
Got shit to prove
Huh
In these shoes
In these shoes
Found my groove up in these shoes
I'm in the mood even with the blues
