Lyrics

The highway's underpass is full of shitty tacks And we can navigate the city without no map So many faces on the sidewalk that bring back Memories of times before I'd even written one rap Happy to be back, I never felt trapped It's blurred together now, the road and home are overlapped I lay my head in every city on the map And it's a gift and a curse to never feel attached Ay, I started off with so much ambition But really I'd be happy with some food in the kitchen So good things stay hidden, good times, good riddance For one minute let's pretend our fate isn't already written So long to day jobs and clear thoughts I already don't remember what I'm talking 'bout But it's whatever, long as we're all here together And we'll tell them that we only stayed in Cleveland for the weather Sometimes I feel hopeless Sometimes I'm misunderstood Sometimes I feel broken But I'll always be an open book Sometimes I feel hopeless Sometimes I'm misunderstood Sometimes I feel broken But I'll always be an open book Feet on the ground, head in the clouds Moving in and out of jet streams Brain storms spinning around More than a wet dream When in doubt, send in the clowns To do the sex scene Flip scripts Read 'em aloud And if we're on the same page Then nobody has to act hard Let your guard down Shine together like a black star I've been speaking Spanish and Swahili in my backyard When I spit my last bar I just want to know that I was doing what I did best Redefine success 20/20 Vision all eyes on the Midwest Power to the people, raise a fist, yes Whether you're religious or just pissed off And don't got shit left I seek you and I raise you The a cappella's not compelling Tracks won't save you But it's tropidelic so you got to feel the praise too Whether you've been overlooked Or never truly understood Read me loud and clear I'm an open book Sometimes I feel hopeless Sometimes I'm misunderstood Sometimes I feel broken But I'll always be an open book Sometimes I feel hopeless Sometimes I'm misunderstood Sometimes I feel broken But I'll always be an open book I'm detached and disenchanted with the fact That the world's moving too fast for me to relax And if I wasn't on the road I think I'd probably relapse But always being on the road just gives me panic attacks Never win, I often lose There's consequence to what you choose And it's hard to do Every time I catch a glimpse It just always seems to fade In a way I feel hopeless Sometimes I feel hopeless Sometimes I'm misunderstood Sometimes I feel broken But I'll always be an open book Sometimes I feel hopeless Sometimes I'm misunderstood Sometimes I feel broken But I'll always be an open book
