In My Head

I be in my head thinking deep 'bout a check
I just want respect but I keep pounds on deck
Cause I need the bread and it be how I'm fed
But it be the feds huntin' me down instead
I said I be in my head thinkin' deep bout a check
Thinking if I'm dead will I be out of my stress?

Look in my eyes, and what do you see?
Hunger and passion, I love to exceed
What you expect of me, I be goin' harder
When I sense doubt, it's my only armor
Cause I'm all alone in this cold world
They say life's a bitch, nah, she my old girl
Cause I'm all alone in this cold world
They say life's a bitch, nah

Ugh yea, what I'm trying to say is I'm not afraid to die
The 2-1-5's B-A-E 'til the day I die
They say I won't go up cause the way I fly
But I'm above the clouds, huh, I'm way too high
Don't matter the path, long as you make it, right?
And I'm on my own path just trying to make it right
And when I take off, I'll only take my guys
Cause I can't take anyone trying to take my pride

I be in my head thinking deep 'bout a check
I just want respect but I keep pounds on deck
Cause I need the bread and it be how I'm fed
But it be the feds huntin' me down instead
I said I be in my head thinkin' deep bout a check
Thinking if I'm dead will I be out of my stress?

Everyday I be fighting my own thoughts
And i don't even got a whole lot though
These hoes trying to ride, but I'm on top
So just give me road head, cause I got no
Time to waste like my money's been intercepted
Imma stay looking up, like searching your question
Tryna be positive and grow in perfection
So don't say I'm interesting, cause I ain't into resting

The only one I'm here to impress is myself
No one was here when I started this, why help
Now? I don't need shit, I held no hands since I felt
Like an outcast, in my shell, I was inside hell
My mind stressing me 'til I can't sleep at night
So I just stay up and grind, hope I'll be alright
They left me alone like a bank, thinking we'd fall, right?
I'm just tryin to have fun so one day we ball like

We tryin to make the team, know we won't give up
We here to chase a dream like we sleep, don't get up
They hating me but can't keep me from my dream
And what they say I dodge, but sometimes these
Haters get the best of me, and I fall endlessly
But the best of me is I bounce back recklessly
My mind's depressin' me but it's also the press in me
To become everything I dreamed of eventually

I be in my head thinking deep 'bout a check
I just want respect but I keep pounds on deck
Cause I need the bread and it be how I'm fed
But it be the feds huntin' me down instead
I said I be in my head thinkin' deep bout a check
Thinking if I'm dead will I be out of my stress?

So much pain inside, am I dead?
It's all in my head, in my head
Stressin' too much to sleep in my bed
I'm all in my head, in my head
Every time they hated on what I said
It stay in my head, in my head
And every time that I failed, I let
It fuck with my head, in my head

So much pain inside, am I dead?
It's all in my head, in my head
Stressin' too much to sleep in my bed
I'm all in my head, in my head
Every time they hated on what I said
It stay in my head, in my head
And every time that I failed, I let
It fuck with my head, in my head

I be in my head thinking deep 'bout a check
I just want respect but I keep pounds on deck
Cause I need the bread and it be how I'm fed
But it be the feds huntin' me down instead
I said I be in my head thinkin' deep bout a check
Thinking if I'm dead will I be out of my stress?
