Movie Ticket
[Intro]
Listen
[Verse 1]
My life was like a movie, the tickets are at the entrance
I'm seein' people leave and I still point 'em to the exits
I'm just bein' me, the life of Logan ain't expected
Apollo's how I vent about my life and get accepted
I've had real-life problems, real-life drama
Wakin' up with no one but my sister and my mama
Every meal I made myself and I can't wait until it's commas
'Cause in 2014, I was livin' off Obama, it's real
Sometimes, I'm scared to show you how I feel
'Cause I got demons locked inside me tryna cut me deals
And I'm closer every day to sayin' "Yes" but I'ma chill
'Cause I know if I make it, it's off everything I've built
Was nights when I would lie awake and think about my life a bit
Now I sit and reminisce before I even write this shit
Not too many 'round me actually got to witness
So if you're new and interested, go 'head and grab your movie ticket
[Chorus]
My life was like a movie once, then it got old
The credits rolled and everybody left the theatre
My life was like a story once, but then it got told
You watched it unfold (Yeah) and now there's no more readers
[Verse 2]
Life is what you make it, I'm dealin' with insecurities
Theres things that I can't even tell my therapist they burden me
I'm 20 tryna make it without financial security
I made mistakes so listen and maybe someone can learn from me
I'm speakin' 'bout my lifetime
The only difference is I don't edit shit when I write mine
You couldn't walk a mile in any vans that I might buy
They ask me how I'm doin', I lie when I say that I'm fine
I can't tell you
I skipped senior skip day just to attend a funeral
They ask me 'bout my life and I tell 'em that shit was beautiful
Between the ups and downs, I was doin' it
I'd rather chase my dreams than be chasin' guarantees in a cubicle
I speak about my life and tell my story to the people
I been in your position watchin' everybody leave you
Thinkin' you've changed when they're the one that's deceitful
It's time to leave the theatre, I'll continue on the sequel
[Chorus]
My life was like a movie once, then it got old
The credits rolled and everybody left the theatre
