The Art of Flying

Truth is I don’t really care to be
On the radio
I got the same 8 to 5
Still on the same payroll
Same routine drive
On the way to my job
Still in my box
Is this mic on? Okay
This ain’t for the Billboard
This ain’t for no Grammy
Gotta couple loose screws
But I’m still handy
I’ve been meditating and praying
Just tryna gain clarity
Like what’s my motives? What’s my dreams?
Do they notice? Do I care if they see?
I’m just tired of tryna get it by any means
Tired of tryna be everything
They don’t really see what’s behind the scenes
So much time and money invested
But ain’t nothing guaranteed
So if you listning
Imma do it right this time
My wallet empty
But my mind’s a gold min
Forget the streams
Forget the clout
Forget the dollar signs
This might be what somebody need
To change the times
So I float and I fly
This is for yo soul
Cause there’s more to life
So I float and I fly
God cleanse my soul
Make me purified
I keep my screen time low
You gotta protect yo peace
Don’t let yo patience run thin
Don’t cope with yo' anxiety
Everybody got an opinion
Everybody tryna get to the money
The hustle don’t stop
Until my dividends reinvestin' for me
Had to ask myself
What was I doing it for?
All the pressure to compete
Just to even the score
You could be a villain to yo' self
That’s Loki Thor
When hammering down yo light-ning
Are you taking care of yo core?
What really matters?
What’s really important to you?
Who you hang around?
Who you look up to?
Who’ll catch you slipping?
And hold themselves accountable?
Who really with you until you pull through?
Woodley Park made me
God came and saved me
My daughter was born then changed me
My parents embraced me
My hubby’s amazing
My sister’s magic blazing
What’s yo' purpose?
Mine was made to praise Him
So I float and I fly
This is for yo soul
Cause there’s more to life
So I float and I fly
God I’m still on the boat
But you calm the tide
So I float and I fly
The same God in control
Told the dead to rise
So I float and I fly
God I give You my soul
Christ be magnified
