Verse I:
I just moved in and nobody really knows me
Sitting in my room and feeling a little lonely
Wondering how I’m gonna spend my time
Debating if I wanna write my rhyme

Cause the neighbors can hear this, it’s a brand new vibe
While I’m writing this track and they’re just outside
I’m a bit self-conscious about my flow
Will they hate, will they laugh, man I just don’t know

But fuk that, I’m-a just do Diz
If they wanna mouth off, they can mouth this dick
If they still wanna talk, I’m-a snag their kids
And squeeze till they pops like them Pringles lids

Wait, scratch that, I’m in no mood
To be talking’ all crazy like you’re used to
I’m-a try to be real, ease the verb and the noun
Then glide on the beat from my boy Sho-Down

Chorus:
It’s the music
That’s my only true love
It’s the music
Getting me through days so tough
When the world’s falling on me, I feel like giving up
Till I hear a new beat so I turn that sh*** up

It’s the music
That’s my only true love
It’s the music
I know when push comes to shove
And find myself questioning the man up above
My music keeps me grounded, I’ll never give it up

Verse II:
It’s the music that’ll keep me awake
Through another class lecture for two hours straight
I’m showing up early and always leave late
But I still get a C on every test I take

I can’t fit in, don’t smoke, don’t drink
Don’t party and can’t seem to sleep one blink
But I do attend class, I do have a job
Every now and then I really do like to jog

I’m quite simple, though up on a track
You hear me “stay crazy!” with my stage act
Never said I was a pimp or a thug with a gat
But I’m tainted with a label of wanting to be black

But it don’t phase much, I hear it so often
I’ll look at you and ridicule like grandma moshing
You hating this track, you ain’t friends with me
No problem, music is all that I need

Chorus

Verse III:
Verse three, I don’t got much left
But I still got beat, I still got breath
I still got stress to get off of my chest
I still got life that I can’t digest

With all of this drama, all of this work
There’s much more but I highlight and excerpt
Man I can’t tell it all, that would take too long
There’s only 1 minute till I finish this song

But some follow along and really why I do it
For all the luv I get when you can relate to my music
To take something I said in a verse and then maybe use it
And apply it so you chill when you feel you’re about to lose it

But please don’t confuse it, it’s only words I speak
Cause I have been often known to say things with my tongue-in-cheek
Cause everyday is a new with not knowing what’s on the way
Bet tomorrow I’ll be crazy, but for now I’ll be ok cause…
