Homecoming
LeveL -1 Lyrics

Taking no shots with no chaser
I was taking shots with no chaser, unable to pace myself and feeling wasted

Damn
Expressing a sense of frustration or disbelief

I was
Reflecting on past actions or experiences

I was taking shots with no chaser can't pace em I think I'm wasted
Regretting reckless behavior and its consequences

Barely taking time to taste em I aim at any occasion
Rushing through life without fully experiencing or appreciating it

Merky waters that I wade in hide the stench of my failure
Struggling in difficult situations and trying to conceal past mistakes

Working I'm getting paper for drama
Engaging in activities to earn money amidst chaos and conflict

Can't even make up
Unable to fabricate or deceive

But I've been had to make due
Adapting to challenging circumstances and making the best of them

With these hard times
Facing and enduring difficult periods in life

Give me clear views on the front line
Seeking clarity and insight in the midst of challenges

Paying my dues
Fulfilling obligations and facing consequences for past actions

Gotta stay down and remain true
Maintaining loyalty and honesty despite obstacles

I've been down I've been patient
Experiencing setbacks and waiting with resilience

It don't hurt me to grow
Embracing personal growth and development even amidst pain

Life done hurt me before
Acknowledge past hardships and challenges faced

Still the hurt doesn't show
Concealing emotional pain from others

Take my time when I roll up and reminisce on the pain
Reflecting on past struggles and challenges while taking my time

Light that spliff and I blow out that shit that stuck on my brain
Using substances to cope and release negative thoughts and memories

It just helps me maintain that distance far from these ghosts
Using coping mechanisms to stay emotionally detached from past traumas

Sometimes get lost in the smoke
Becoming distracted or overwhelmed by temporary relief

I lost it all for the dough
Sacrificing everything for money or material gain

I was swimming in the abyss
Feeling overwhelmed and lost in darkness

I couldn't drown
Struggling to overcome challenges and adversity

Time steady ticking away
Awareness of the passing of time

Look what I found
Discovering new insights or opportunities

My way I'm not around
Navigating my own path and not conforming to expectations

Somedays I'm in the clouds
Experiencing moments of euphoria or distraction

Someway I lift the crown
Finding ways to rise above challenges and adversity

Litle homie hit me up
A younger friend contacted me

Gotta do a bid for shit he ain't did
Facing consequences for actions he did not commit

They was killing niggas that he roll with
His associates were being harmed or killed

Shit he was tryna make it in
He was trying to succeed or make progress

Remember when he was a kid
Reflecting on his past innocence or youthful days

He was tryna find his way
He was seeking direction or a purpose

Now he got a couple days till he walk in
Facing imprisonment or legal consequences soon

Man this shit crazy
Expressing disbelief or astonishment at the situation

So what you ain't got the dollas
It doesn't matter if you don't have money

No Gucci Louie or Prada
Not owning luxury or designer items

So what she ain't never holla
It doesn't matter if she never called or showed interest

Give you good brain turn you to a scholar
Offering intelligence and education as valuable assets

So what you still with yah mama
It's okay if you're still living with your mother

I hope you paying them bills
I hope you're responsible for your financial obligations

Hope you keeping it real
I hope you stay authentic and true to yourself

Always time to make mills
There's always an opportunity to make money

See I made it here off of instinct
I reached this point through intuition or gut feeling

Knew a couple suckas ain't shit sweet
Realized that some individuals are not trustworthy or genuine

Couple brothers tried to diss me
A few friends or acquaintances attempted to disrespect or criticize me

Had to cut em off like a limp knee
Had to sever ties with them completely

Taking chances moving risky
Engaging in risky behavior or decisions

Thinking bout how my wrist freeze
Reflecting on the expensive jewelry or accessories

Not thinking about what I was risking
Not considering the potential consequences of my actions

Trippin off on these missions
Getting caught up in complicated or dangerous tasks

Got me drifting off in the distance
Feeling disconnected or lost in thought

Back and forth repetition
Engaging in repetitive or cyclical patterns

I was moving so ignant
I was acting foolishly or ignorantly

Now I'm moving so different
Now I conduct myself in a more mature or responsible manner

Action based off my pigment
Experiencing discrimination or bias based on my race

Tryna show there's a better way
Attempting to demonstrate a more positive or constructive path

So don't risk it all for that vision
Urging caution and not sacrificing everything for an idea or goal

Better days in position
Hoping for brighter and more stable times ahead

Someway I
Somehow I
