CP x FVE - Mona Lisa

I remember the days I wouldn't think a lot
Just kept to myself I didn't release my inner thoughts
I didn't explore all the opportunities I was given
I felt like the Mona Lisa trapped in someone's vision

Started forming bonds at the age of three
We were ballin at miss daisy's with no boundaries
Trading toys in the playpen, living til the weekend
Always had dreams, but I didn't live to seek them

I grew up the kid in the back
With the old navy hoodie and the old school starter cap
The jeans too big with grass stains in em
Had crushes on the girls with the skin tight denim

Yaboi was in a shell so I admired from afar
Young and quiet people forget bout who you really are
Picked on and belittled cause you don't have a foreign car
That's when your mental wounds turn into scars

I felt like my sleight of hand was too apparent
That's why I'm now I'm using my voice to be transparent
All I wanted was to leave behind a legacy
Or to be the chosen one fulfill my prophecy

Before I started rhythming my shine was hid away behind closed blinds
In time the rays still found my mind and I
Now know the power these words have, sublime
To the ones before me that inspired my mind

Far from average, farther from mediocrity
Blossomed into a star after battling insecurities
Hid behind the alias know as CP
Caleb be the name, ain't nobody taking that from me

I'm tryna paint a picture like Leo
Gotta brush in hand easy stroke like a free throw
If Leo painting pictures, this is my starting note
If Leo painting pictures, this my starting note

Imma be on rotation through the nation
I'm back with the old, but I'm a new sensation
I'm here with the boom, but I'm smooth with the rap
Cleaner than the soap bombs bitches use in the bath

This isn't second nature, it's a new found passion
Got the mental state of Magic, I'm already passing
Fresh to the game, but yaboi ain't lacking
Started rapping at 21, I feel like I already got the game won

I'm tryna paint a picture like Leo
Gotta brush in hand easy stroke like a free throw
If Leo painting pictures, this is my starting note
If Leo painting pictures, this is my starting note

I remember the days when I wouldn't think a lot
Just kept to myself I didn...
I didn't explore all the opportunities I was given
I felt like the Mona Lisa trapp...
