JUMA MUSIC - SELF-TALK
Sometimes you gotta slow down
Get off the merry-go-round
Get on some solider ground
Take a look around and just breathe
Before you miss the Forest for the trees
Cause everything ain't always what it seems
And you ain't always gotta be the one to do
Sometimes the power the move is be the best you
It's cool to let your soul get some rest too
Sometimes a day is hard to enough to try to get through
And perfection is a lie
Go ahead and cross your t's dot your i's
Just stop obsessing on perfecting every line
Cause life will pass you by while you're wasting your time
Everybody makes mistakes
But mistakes don't make you
It's all about your mind
What you think you make true
You do better for you then it's better for me
So this is from you, I'm talking to me
Talking to myself, my mind just keeps on running
These thoughts they get so loud in my head
(In my head)
Talking to myself, a lonely conversation
And there's still so much that's left unsaid
(But I'm just talking to myself)
And you've been eating o much junk food
What you trying to join that die young club too
Diabetes in your fam like an heirloom
And took your father from this world in his bedroom
And speaking of dad
You remember that time, when you and him took a ride
And he told you never date a girl that curses all the time
Cause when somebody speaks they express what's on their mind
It wasn't just for women though
They way he kicked it, yo, the message was subliminal
Life and death is in the tongue
You're too critical
Stop downing yourself, you might see miracles
You keep doubting yourself and letting fear take hold
You should be proud of yourself but you won't hear it though
I know
You do better for you
Then it's better for me
So this is from you, I'm talking to me
Talking to myself, my mind just keeps on running
These thoughts they get so loud in my head
(In my head)
Talking to myself, a lonely conversation
And there's still so much that's left unsaid
(But I'm just talking to myself)
Things don't always go the way that they're supposed to
Like how you end up hurting people that you're close to
They say your experiences mold you
Positive or negative it's all in what you hold to
And everything that's popular gets old too
So keep doing you and standing on your own two
Worrying about what people think, you let them own you
Hard to be a king when you let opinions control you
All that energy you spend comparing yourself
You need to channel all that, into preparing yourself
Be aware of yourself, and take care of yourself
I'm talking mentally, emotional, and spiritual health
And hear me what I'm saying bro you gotta start praying again
Listen for God and His voice within
It'll be better for you
Then it's better for me
And this is from you, I'm talking to me
(I'm talking to me)
Talking to myself, my mind just keeps on running
These thoughts they get so loud in my head
(In my head)
Talking to myself, a lonely conversation
And there's still so much that's left unsaid
(But I'm just talking to myself)
