Blake G and OtD - Complacent

Yea record it fuck it
I see
False Gods in idle time and I can barely stand it
And monday's the worst vibes it’s so mundane and standard
Another 9 another 5 has passed me again
Track shoes in quick sand how come I never win?
How come screensavers still screensavers and I ain’t book a flight?
How come I can’t say I’ve lost but still afraid to fight
How come the lucky stars still wishing that I'd put in effort
How come when shit falls apart I can’t get it together
Complacent
Always thought that I’d do somethin amazin
All the plans that they talked about were so basic
Now I’m up late, thinkin bout the time that I wasted
Being Complacent
All these days feel the same now
I ain’t where I wanna be yet
But there’s no one else I can blame now
Burn the candle at both ends
And a storm never blew the flame out
Everyone that’s on the opposite of what I’m on
Can get phased out
I can’t hear you
You go a little numb
When you don’t ever let the pain near you
The power trips pretty over rated
I’d rather be loved than feared dude
I need somethin else
Life’s punching below the belt
Ran away from confrontation
On the microphones the only time that I
Really been known to yell
And in my comfort zone is where I’m known to dwell
But if you want the best you gotta grow yourself
And as I’m growing old, I start noticing
That nobody really knows anything well
That’s alright though, I’ma spread light so
We can all see the path that we walk
Gotta take action, done with that talk
You stay in the same spot, you really could get lost
Complacent
Always thought that I’d do somethin amazin
All the plans that they talked about were so basic
Now I’m up late, thinkin bout the time that I wasted
Being complacent
Used to believe I was destined for victory, man I remember it vividly
I used to think that the sky was the limit I knew I would make it eventually
I thought I would be making history, now all that I’m chasing is memories
It took me mourning the loss of my homies to finally hit that epiphany
Plan aborted
I remember when I had a passion for it
But living in a world where the cash is king
I was convinced it was something that I had to forfeit
I’d be lying if I tell em that I had no warning
Life is flying, flashing forward, homies dying, have to mourn em
Time is at a massive shortage
Barely got enough gas in the tank to get back in orbit
But the roof is caving, everything destroyed
Stakes are way to crazy to avoid
Human nature maybe we were made
For more than being gainfully employed
Who’s to say you’re made to be ignored
You were meant to save em with your voice
You could break the chains and make a choice
You’ve been too complacent in the void
Face it
Always thought that I’d do somethin amazin
All the plans that they talked about were so basic
Now I’m up late, thinkin bout the time that I wasted
Being Complacent
Always thought that I’d do somethin amazin
All the plans that they talked about were so basic
Now I’m up late, thinkin bout the time that I wasted
Being Complacent
