lyrics

[Chorus]
I'm never gonna let go of the dream
No matter how messed up moments seem
I'm never gonna come back down
I'm never coming off my cloud
Cuz even though I'll never grow complete
And even though I've outgrown all the glee
I'm never gonna come back down
I'm never coming off my cloud

[Verse 1]
My mind has been more inclined to be rhyming when I’m feeling ill
Scared to be impaired, I'm embarrassed caring, I’m barely real
I rarely ever try to hide it, but I’m here to heal
My carnival of terror, I won't dare get off this ferris wheel
I'ma breathe it, I love it, I release it
You can take it or leave it, I don't need another reason
But best believe I'ma wonder "What if I need it?"
I covet what you keep in your covered corners and secrets
Because I'm empty, barely any accept me
The "mess" me, "regrets" me, cuz even less get me
I've been impressing people every time I wreck beats
But then the "fresh" dissipated and they left me
Every time I rhyme on another record, guess it's more to hate and
All the false and forced elation? Call it off, it's short charading
I can afford to be annoying so I sort of made it
Go on and ignore me cuz I'm so poorly coordinated

[Verse 2]
My music tells a story and it’s starring me
I’m past Cloud Nine but don’t nobody see the star in me
I’m tryna make it through all the doubts and failed times
Without my kids having to watch jail time
I’m on the grind, and this music is my hustle
Yeah I do it cuz I love it but I do it for the duffel
Bag full of green, bank account say full
Go ahead and check my credit, they gon’ tell you that it’s good
I put my soul in this, got full control of this
You hating like a cop that wanna shut it down patrolling this
Scene like a crime, if I put it on Vine
It’d proly blow up, but that wouldn’t blow my mind
Cuz fame is just a step away from doing something dumb
Why you stressing making plans, talking ‘bout you ‘bout to run?
Just take a deep breath, it’s okay to say “help”
But I never had no help, nah I did did by myself, so

[Verse 3]
I'm blessed with the belief that a message is the key
To respect and that can lead to mass connections in a scene
But the passion never seems to catch the essence of my being
So I scream, live a bittersweet sentence as it seems
This has all been Matisse so the problem is me
But I will not be defeated by a song y’all don't stream
This Sauce is a dream but it's all that I need
This impossible feat is nearly all that I believe in
