Strange
Shane_Eagle Lyrics

Yeah, oh yeah, it’s greatness, check
Yes, indeed, it's greatness, verify

I look up north when I pray to the skies
I direct my prayers toward the north, gazing at the heavens

It’s funny when things go south, god never replies
It's ironic that when things go wrong, God remains silent

Is he testing me huh?
Is God putting me to the test, huh?

Is he blessing me huh? Check
Is God bestowing blessings upon me, huh? Confirm

I figured it out, we just modern day slaves
I understood, we are simply contemporary slaves

How my momma feed a family off this minimum wage
How does my mother support a family on this meager income?

And I could blow 20 racks that I made from being on stage
And I could spend a large sum of money I earned from performing on stage

In front of strangers, shit, that shit the strangest
In the presence of strangers, that's the strangest thing

Look, I wear my heart on my sleeve
Look, I openly display my emotions

The same reason I’m still working towards this college degree
For the identical reason, I am still pursuing a college degree

No designer here, I’m still the brand these labels wanna be
I don't have any famous designers, but I am the brand that these labels aspire to be

Ain’t no polishing me, ain’t no polishing me
There is no need to refine or improve me, there is no need

I’m out here shining, yeah
I'm out here radiating brilliance, yeah

Just waiting on my moment, know it’s all about the timing, yeah
Just patiently awaiting my opportunity, understanding that it's all about timing, yeah

Don’t look around, look inside happiness you gon’ find it, yeah
Don't search externally, find happiness within yourself, yeah

And sometimes and sometimes the truth can be blinding, yeah
And occasionally, the truth can be overwhelming, yeah

Check, me and my niggas is straight, we never fold up
Verify, me and my friends are doing well, we never surrender

20 years old, my dreams are getting closer
At the age of 20, my dreams are becoming nearer

Used to talk about it and now I’m living the shit
We used to discuss it, and now I'm actually experiencing it

I put my heart on it, I hope y’all feeling this shit
I put my passion into it, I hope you all appreciate this

I try to keep my head on my shoulders with all this fame shit
I strive to stay grounded despite all this fame and attention

Still get uncomfortable when these people call my name shit
I still feel uneasy when people address me by name

Used to drive hours to the hood where nothings ever bragged about
I used to spend hours driving to the neighborhood where nothing impressive is ever mentioned

Now my day ones are them same niggas with the cameras out like
Now my original friends are the ones with cameras recording, as if it's a spectacle

Y’all used to tell me things
You all used to confide in me

Yeah, but you don’t call no more
Yes, but you no longer reach out

Yeah, I know you got my number but you don’t call no more
Yes, I'm aware that you have my contact information, but you choose not to contact me anymore

Yeah, used to be like MJ on the court but you don’t ball no more
Yes, you used to play basketball like Michael Jordan, but you no longer participate

You just acting distant now
You are simply behaving aloof now

Is it because I’m shining? Yeah
Is it because I'm succeeding? Yes

Just waiting on my moment, know it’s all about the timing, yeah
Just patiently anticipating my moment, understanding that it's all about timing, yeah

Don’t look around, look inside happiness you gon’ find it, yeah
Don't search externally, find happiness within yourself, yeah

And sometimes and sometimes the truth can be blinding, yeah
And occasionally, the truth can be overwhelming, yeah

Keep burning bridges my nigga it’s all G
Continue to sever relationships, my friend, it's all good

Heard ‘em say team just know that it’s all me
I've heard people say it's a team effort, but understand that it's all me

Took all the boys shopping and told ‘em it’s on me
Took all my friends shopping and let them know it's my treat

When the smoke clear everybody know it’s gon’ be sweet
Once the obstacles disappear, everyone will realize how great it will be

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
While I traverse through dangerous situations and uncertainties

I had to count every step and thank God for the breath
I had to carefully consider each move and express gratitude to God for each breath

To the young bulls putting in work to seek pay
To the young individuals working hard to find financial reward

Don’t forget how the universe works, this shits strange
Remember the unconventional nature of how the universe operates, this situation is bizarre

I can’t stop ‘til I’m the only motherfucker out here... yeah
I won't cease until I'm the sole individual dominating this field... yeah

Bitch you know I love chips and I love it deep fried bitch hahaha
You know I love potatoes and I prefer them fried, that's right, hahaha

Some shit like that my nigga
Something along those lines, my friend
