Lyrics
0:20I was lonely making an album attempted it four times
0:23Lost my confidence and you wouldn't believe why
0:25Sitting in the studio with my head in my hands
0:28Thinking what am I to do with this music I can't write?
0:31Team falling apart and I'm caught in the crossfire
0:33You selling me lies and saying I must buy
0:36Messing with my mental that I've worked hard to protect
0:38It's causing pains in my chest so it's best that I cut ties
0:41Tryna make an album means baring my whole truth
0:44Unpacking the fuckery I'm trying to heal through
0:46Imagine telling it all to somebody you trust
0:49Then that same somebody then holds it against you
0:52Mm
0:54It's almost like that somebody's trying to end you
0:58I was lonely making an album till I released
1:00I'm all I needed to get through
1:06So lonely
1:13A race against time
1:17But take it slowly
1:23Playing on my weakness
1:27And that's unholy
1:32I'll pray for you
1:37God is who we both need
1:43I was lonely making an album I ran into mad blocks
1:45Tryna find that girl everybody's a fan of
1:48Couldn't even say what I thought was good anymore
1:51Whether I'm hands on or hands off
1:53Maybe music just isn't meant for me anymore
1:56Maybe I'll erase all these memories from my core
1:58Maybe I'll do more acting and less rapping
2:01'Cos I don't even know who I'm meant to be anymore
2:03Lonely making an album is tackling all doubt
2:06I'm used to making it with— can I do it without?
2:09No figure of speech I get it by any means
2:11No sucker is in my genes yet still having more doubts
2:15On top of that
2:16I'm dealing with somebody who's obsessed with more clout
2:20I was lonely making an album
2:22Till I realised my story's all I can pour out
2:29So lonely
2:36A race against time
2:39But take it slowly
2:46Playing on my weakness
2:49And that's unholy
2:55I'll pray for you
2:59God is who we both need
3:37I'm spinning up away
3:39I'm spinning up away
3:42I'm spinning up away
3:45Up away up away
3:47I'm spinning up away
3:50I'm spinning up away
3:52I'm spinning up away
3:55Up away up away
3:57I'm spinning up away
4:00I'm spinning up away
4:03I'm spinning up away
4:05Up away up away
4:08I'm spinning up away
4:10I'm spinning up away
4:13I'm spinning up away
4:16Up away up away
4:18I'm spinning up away
4:21I'm spinning up away
