Lagoon
J.A.K Lyrics

They selling me a dream, I'm beginning to believe
I am being fed unrealistic hopes and aspirations, and I am slowly starting to believe them

They telling you to steal and it’s coming from a thief
You are being instructed to act immorally by a person who is a hypocrite

They wanted me to leave in a world to call my own
I was encouraged to exist in my own world without any regard for others

I was following a path leading right into the zone
I was following an established route that was leading me into a specific area or lifestyle

I quit the nonsense and playing on my phone
I stopped engaging in trivial activities such as playing on my phone

I think it’s best if I took some time alone
I believe it is better for me to be by myself for a period of time

At second hand, I was tryna understand
I was attempting to comprehend something through indirect means

As a man I was walking in the sand
I was going through life as an adult, taking careful steps towards my goals

And shit got heated
The situation became tense and emotional

As i came to realise, I defeat it
I eventually understood the problem and was able to overcome it

I was hiding in disguise, but i need it
I was concealing my true identity, but I felt it was necessary

Told you I would try, don’t believe it
I made an attempt, but do not take my word for it

And yeah you gotta see it
And you have to witness it firsthand

I never thought the life I’m living to feel alone
I did not anticipate feeling lonely in the lifestyle I am currently living

I waited but people hating on things they didn’t know
I waited patiently while others criticized things they did not understand

And every step that I'm taking im losing sight of the road
With each movement forward, I am gradually losing my direction

I never could ever try to be clever just on my own
I have never been able to rely solely on my intelligence

Cuz im basic, faded
Because I am not special or glamorous, and I am feeling less energized

Hate it when my life is complicated, say it
I dislike when my life becomes complex, and I express it

We just staying friends, I should’ve waited, fake it
We are merely friends, and I regret not being more patient and not pretending

It happens every time I can’t change it, don't even try to blame this
It occurs regularly and is beyond my control, so I should not try to place blame

My job was pretty crazy not actually but it pays me
My occupation was not particularly exciting but it provided me with income

In ways turned to my favor, with flavor I'm not in danger
It worked out in my favor and has its own unique attributes, therefore I am not at risk

A stranger the park ranger is telling me what to do (What to do)
A ranger at the park, someone unknown to me, is instructing me what to do

Climb a mountain tryna smash a girl or two (Girl or two)
Attempting to sleep with a few women while mountain climbing

I sold them shoes the only option I can choose
I had no other option but to sell shoes

I can chose, I wanna win cuz i don’t know what else to do (Else to do)
I have a choice, and I desire to succeed because I do not have any other options

I'm tryna get my shit together like it’s glue
I am attempting to organize my life and become more stable

But you knew, I'm just trynna talk to you
However, you already knew this, I am simply trying to communicate with you

Went out into the city, the homies we looking pretty
I went into the city with my friends, and we were all dressed well

Next day we feeling shitty, Sophia showed us a titty
The next day, we all felt bad, but Sophia showed us her breast

Yo Nathalie came too
Nathalie also joined us

She hooking up with the homie W
She was romantically involved with the friend named W

And he took her to his room
And they went to his room

A nice memory
A pleasant recollection

With them crystals they be flowing like energy
With those crystals, they have the ability to change energy flows

Bring me close to destiny
Moving me closer to my predetermined fate

From outer space
Coming from outside of Earth's atmosphere

Man, I hate what it does to your face
I dislike how it alters your physical appearance

It’s like I'm stuck in my mind it’s a maze
I feel trapped in my own thoughts, as if in a labyrinth

I couldn’t lie if I tried anyways, on the grind everyday
Even if I tried, I could not deceive anyone, because I work hard every day

We could’t lie, It's do or die
We cannot lie, as it is a matter of living or dying

We on the grind every day
We work hard every single day
