Lyrics:
Verse 1:
Uhh! Back in days could probably find me stuck in a haze
Looking for praise, tucked in a phase, walking around like im stuck in a maze
Looking for something to keep me awake, running in circles a boy that might brake (break),
A passion or quality I could relate, imagine just what i could do in a day
Believe me, couldn't see dreams, in a tee-pee, put my own walls
No balls, too scared that I might fall. Too afraid that i might stall
In a world that you just can't call
Clearly I was just too small, couldn't stand tall, I just could crawl
Couldn't run that but was stunned that I could run back if i pleased
Never done that, nor spun back coulda won that in one breeze
Top gun, brat, go brag that I could wrap raps with such ease
Stereotypical right? What a quizzical life I had to go release
Too easy, wasn't greedy, just completely in my own head
Yet so dead, was imminent, was so ignorant to what paa said
Not a single pride that i could shed, went so calm to hot flash, red,
Was a cut thread with not much bread
But yet I'd keep getting told to just

Hook:
Wax on, & wax off
Just gotta fake it till ya make it, don't stop
It's just the matrix but we'll take it through the top
Another day, no we aint playing, that's the probs so just x2

Verse 2:
Uhh! Too much pressure for one talent to be recognized
From kicking balls to picking strings, see I should testify
Such an athlete but didn't feel was centralized
Egotistic, just wanted crowds to be mesmerized
Uh, trapped between ego and confidence
Back and forth no practice but expecting to be competent
Potential evident with little skill I was still flaunting it
Rap already tasty but I saw me as the condiment
Spice up volume, spice up the plans
Nation full of doubt but I was one to bring a chance
Uh, at least I thought so, could feel it through my torso
Running through my mind just tryna figure what the Gods know
Apollo, tell me what's the prophesy
Cause now I feel so hollow. Tell me, answer honestly
Cause i can barely swallow, throat be full of commentary
My mouth was running constantly but still was getting told to just go

Hook:
Wax on, & wax off
Just gotta fake it till ya make it, don't stop
It's just the matrix but we'll take it through the top
Another day, no we aint playing, that's the probs so just x2
