about

"END THOUGH" is about my battle with imposter syndrome. This song is a deeper look into my struggles with identity as an independent artist living on an isolated island in the middle of the Pacific.

lyrics

Verse 1:

Gelato rolled up
Got a bottle of the Jack pour up
That be life when this rap sht all that you love,
Everything around you nothing but numb.
Late nights losing sleep up in HQ
I’ve been clean for while. I’ve been great too
How you been huh?
Been feeling better bout myself as of late
Faith got me through the trouble
There be bags I need to chase
And at the end of the tunnel
There’s a light (uhh)
told my demons let the bygones be bygones.
I’ve hurt people that I never should’ve hurt
Even if i didn’t mean it, still raised some concern
In my heart
I don’t wanna cause pain,
I wanna heal with my art
They got they stories
But I’d rather let em talk
Cause they ain’t been in my shoes
Then ain’t seen what I’ve seen
They ain’t been on my grind
And they think they know me like damn
You don’t know me you just knew who I was.
Had a lot of self growth In these past few months.
Had to cut some people off, cause they lost my trust.
Fake friends, fake moves, even worst? Fake love.
People like to disappear
When they got what they want.
Only wanting you to win,
So they’d feel like they a part of ya come up.
“Yeah I’ve been a day one”
Shut up.

Chorus:

No I don’t want stress no more
Ain’t no one impress no more
Fuck clout I’ve been down that road
I was hurting on the low,
Now I’m Cooling up in Zen Mode

On the green, cause I stopped all the benzos
I was almost taken out like a bento
Yeah i took this life granted now I’m laughing looking back
At all bad shit I’ve done it was whack,
but hope its cool in the end though

Verse 2:

For the first time I ain’t got no drama
All the sht for the birds, all that’s on my mind
be the mental health and commas
I got too much on the line, to not put me first
Tell me what I owe again? I don’t know
All of dis entitlement, It ain’t cool
I got the juice, I got the sauce
Tell what ya value isn’t once more
I got too much to worry about I got goals
Too much I’m burning the clock, I be cold in my heart
If my sanity gone, at the cost of couple of streams
Then at least my ass finished the song (fuck)
It's all good, you know me man it's all love,
But do you really know me?
Do you really know me?

Chorus:

No I don’t want stress no more
Ain’t no one impress no more
Fuck clout I’ve been down that road
I was hurting on the low,
Now I’m Cooling up in Zen Mode

On the green, cause I stopped all the benzos
I was almost taken out like a bento
Yeah i took this life granted now I’m laughing looking back
At all bad shit I’ve done it was whack,
but hope its cool in the end though
