Don't mind me, I'm just doing my drugs (My drugs)

I don't bar none and I don't hold no grudge
Dm
But I'm all real homie, I do not budge
Dm
They tell ya it's for your soul, they just playing a role
Dm
'Cause when it's all said and done it comes down to control
Dm
All the lying and deception been taking its toll
                         N.C.
But I'm ten toes down, I will not fold

The phone calls stop coming when I talk my case
                           D

N.C     Dm
I gotta look past the messenger and hear the message

I gotta be my best self and get all my blessings
Dm
So let me light up this blunt and if they hate, so what?
          D
I'm doing me, I'm not concerned too much

N.C.
Sitting on the mountaintop
Dm
Well above the clouds, I don't feel like I'm about to drop
Dm
Hanging in the balance, I don't harbor any malice
Dm
I done been up in the slums, I done been up in the palace
      Dm
I'm infinity, sacred geometry, living simply
Dm
Universe aligned with my spirit, I feel its symmetry
Dm
I remember vividly, the Devil tried to finish me

Nature got my back, so he couldn't fuck with the synergy

Star shining in night, my light true as the day

I don't believe in the hype, I'm only human, I say

Oh you lost? Well, I'm lost, too

And some of us are burdened with the knowledge, but we all fools
Dm
What's the point of winning while we living when we all lose
                               D
When it's said and done in the ending when we all screwed?

And I'm like, "Hell yeah"
Dm
And I'm like
