Julez Xavier - Scratchin The Surface

Well I been drinking a lot
Thinking much more about what's to come
Before my thoughts plunge into darkness
Think I been thinking too much
Don't get me started
I seen how that story ended
Crucified not resurrected, don't like it
I'm my own Pontius Pilate
The private jet called my mind got no autopilot
I'm trying to get the rudders on course
Styling yuttas with shorts
Before the norms could get to me
I'm too different
Knew this since a youth in all white schools
That I'm the mixed kid
And ever since I played into stereotypes
I knew my identity could become the epitome of a bad joke
Good folks, mad stoked
I have them in my life still
Didn't know how to tell y'all
Was struggling with myself
But don't worry I'ma be alright
Cuz we alright
I patch burns
Put my first degree on ice
That T on my shirt don't stand for Temple
It actually stand for all of the trials a nigga been through
But now
I'm controlling it focusing it
Not holding it down
Can't repress my thoughts
I'll just address my darkest days
As a phase that just had to happen for sure
And every action got purpose
Me I'm just scratching the surface

And every action got purpose
Me I'm just scratching the surface
Sing
Na nana na na
Na na na
Nana na na
Na na nanana
Nana na na
No na no no no no no

Scene
In my bedroom
Mentally returning from a trip to the water
Mood
Somber but hopeful
Cuz I'm all alone in the cut
Don't you think it's hard to know what's been up
You think they'd seen a pot of gold then they rush
And then it's back to all alone in the cut
I said a nigga all alone in the cut
Don't you think it's hard to know what's been up
You think they'd seen a pot of gold then they rush
And then it's back to all alone in the cut
So tell me where do I go
In this life I don't know
Is it right that I don't
Know just quite where to go
I hope I don't float
