Control
Nill Lyrics

got the world up on my shoulders good thing I don’t fold with pressure
Despite having a lot of responsibilities, I am resilient and don't succumb to stress easily.

scattered bottles the way kendrick had them lighters on his dresser
My life is wild and unpredictable, much like the scene of chaos depicted in Kendrick Lamar's music video.

we are cut from different cloths were different lengths were different measures
We are very different people, with different personalities and abilities.

I be sick from all the smoke I take from dealing with depression
I am exhausted from trying to cope with my mental illness.

you be sick from all the smoke because your lungs won’t stay together
You are physically unwell due to smoking and it's causing damage to your health.

I got plans for when I’m sad that i’ll get up and change the weather
When I'm feeling down, I have strategies in place to turn things around.

I knew it would be a riot from the first day that I met her
I could sense that there would be drama and tension in our relationship from the very beginning.

making plays up in the post like my position is the centre
I'm skilled at making strategic moves in my personal and professional life, much like a basketball center who plays in the post.

in alignment i’m not hiding i know space is near
I am centered and know where I am going in life, and I am not hiding from the challenges that come my way.

knew she wouldn’t like it asked to try it made me waste my beer
I knew that my girlfriend wouldn't like something I was doing, but I did it anyway and ended up regretting it.

dropped some ppl out my life i’m vibing now my face is clear
I have let go of toxic relationships and am feeling much more at peace now.

we all bleeding blood so ain’t no human you gon make me fear
At the end of the day, we are all human and therefore no one can make me feel scared or inferior.

you ain’t on my level you’ll get fed up tryna meet me here
You can't keep up with me and will eventually become discouraged trying to match my level of success.

link up with the mandem out in brasil you gon see me there
I'm planning to meet up with my friends in Brazil and they will find me there.

you know you just with me cause i’m poppin homie be sincere
You're only hanging out with me because I'm popular, so please be honest about your intentions.

sweating like i’m nelly when my life starts getting heated
I get anxious and nervous when things in my life start to become overwhelming or intense.

Esse é o meu naipe cê ja sabe
This is my style, you already know.

mas vamos por parte
But let's take it step by step.

leve a minha rima a navegar pelos 7 mares
Let my lyrics travel far and wide like a ship sailing across the seven seas.

antes que se acabe mano, antes que se acabe mais um dia
Before the day is over and it's too late, let's make the most of it.

antes que seja tarde pra trilogia
Before it's too late to complete our trilogy of projects.

porem
However,

oque eu faço é alquimia tambem
What I am doing is like alchemy.

de nao abaixar a cabeça pra ninguem
I refuse to bow down to anyone or let them oppress me.

mais um dia da semana e voce, vai mostrar que nao tem nada a perde
Another day of the week, and you're going to show that you have nothing to lose.

pode se que me queiram na tv
People might want to see me on TV.

dessas que preto vai tirar um lazer
Those shows where black people are used as entertainment.

um forte abraço aos meus dias de trevas
A strong embrace to the days of darkness I've experienced.

por que depois de um tempo a carteira não fecha
Because after a while, it's hard to make ends meet.

can’t seem to control it
I can't seem to control my emotions.
