 Clicks, clicks, clicks, they'll do anything to get a few
 Tick, tick, tick, that's the sound before my head explodes
 Quit, quit, quit, look at you up on your pedestals
 Quick, quick, quick, here the critics come, it's time to go
 I read your article, it kinda hurt me
 I don't know who hired you or what your friends say in your circle
 But the fact that you released it tells me two things are for certain
 They get paid for trashin' people, I get paid 'cause I stay workin' (Yeah)
 Dropped The Search and they emerge up outta nowhere to the surface
 Just to peek behind the curtain, throwin' salt at all my burdens
 I'm aware I shouldn't give this my attention, life's a journey
 I should just stay on my path and learn to laugh, you think they heard me?
 Ears are burning, put 'em out, quiet, quiet, look around
 Why don't they find someone way more interesting to write about?
 Us, we're kinda boring, aren't we? All we do is whine and pout
 It's confusing, so amusing how I argue with myself
 Hello
 I spit it with ease, so leave it to me
 You doubt it, but you better believe
 I'm on a rampage, hit 'em with the record release
 Depend on the week, I'm prolly gonna have to achieve
 Another goal, let me go when I'm over the beat
 I go into beast mode, like I'm ready to feast
 I'm fed up with these thieves, tryna get me to bleed
 They wanna see me take an L, yep, see what I mean?
 How many records I gotta give you to get with the program?
 Taken for granted, I'm 'bout to give you the whole plan
 Open your mind up and take a look at the blueprint
 Debate if you gotta, but gotta hold it with both hands
 To pick up the bars, you gotta be smart
 You really gotta dig in your heart
 If you wanna get to the root of an issue
 Pursuin' the mental can be dark and be difficult
 But the pay off at the end of it can help you to get through it, ayy
 Paid my dues, made it through (Woo, woo, woo)
 Spread the news, I'm on the loose (Woo, woo, woo)
 Makin' moves, I need some room (Woo, woo, woo)
 Thought we's cool, well, don't assume, don't assume, ayy
 I'm the truth, oh, they want some proof? Here, don't be rude
 Somethin' new, even when I lose, I make it look cool
 Do the show, then we hit the room, wife is lookin', oh
 What to do? I don't need the shades up to like the view (Yeah)
 It's time to get back in the swing of things
 When my life crashes, I'm not the guy that'll flee the scene
 I'll take ownership and own it and raise my hand if it's me
 Just remember though, I'm only a man, I'm a human being
 Don't they see? Shoot the breeze, I'd rather just stay discrete
 People claim they're in your corner, but leave you in times of need
 They don't listen, do they? (What?) They don't listen to anything
 I'll accept advice if it's not presented ignorantly
 Look, costs are high, they multiply
 Then cause divides, I'm forced to fight
 The poison I been sippin' on has quite the bite, it killed me twice
 They rigged the lights so y'all can see
 The parts of mine that aren't so bright
 See, often I apologize, then authorize the awful times
 To pop up (Nate!) like I'm right behind you
 I'd advise you not to try to climb inside the mind like I do
 Keep the rhyme book, expedite it, overnight it
 Hold it tight and hope that time is on my side
 'Cause if it's not, then I'll decide to override my own demise
 I toe the line too close and I could improvise
 I'd empathize, but recognize
 The fact that I could jeopardize and wreck our lives
 You better give me your attention, the undivided
 Paid my dues, made it through (Woo, woo, woo)
 Spread the news, I'm on the loose (Woo, woo, woo)
 Makin' moves, I need some room (Woo, woo, woo)
 Thought we's cool, well, don't assume, don't assume, ayy
 Paid my dues, made it through (Woo, woo, woo)
 Spread the news, I'm on the loose (Woo, woo, woo)
 Makin' moves, I need some room (Woo, woo, woo)
 Thought we's cool, well, don't assume, don't assume, ayy
