What do you think you mean 
When you tell me everything is clean 
But you know what that can mean 
Being clean isn't a sure thing 
People never change 
No spare change 
I can't help you out of this binge 
Just forgive me 
For the real thing 
I'm just right here 
Oh my friends
Where are you now?
You aren't right here 
You never were
Always stuck in your mind 
Always thinking of your self 
I'm not afraid of my prime 
Never gonna put my books on the shelf 
The dust of waste 
All a matter of being displaced 
But my vision is straight 
Balancing my time 
Making some rhymes 
I'm still not sure of what this is
But all I know 
I'm throwing a mean pitch 
Spitting my game 
Wishing I was on a plane 
Escaping the shame of faces and places
Running into the masses who are coloring canvases 
I'm ready for what's next 
Just let me know what's next
