lyrics

i keep my inventory froze in back
i could be the fuse that blows the stack
this is the song where i'm supposed to rap the best
and do some boastin bout my style
cuz i chose it as the closing track
but i'ma take a different attitude
and express my fucking gratitude
this old cowboy's rarely in the saddle
now i barely ever battle
speak my piece and maybe that'll do

ain't on a mission trying to save rap
i'm on a mission trying to change me
just to shed all the pretention and ambition
and just basically be living like i'm cage free
just a glimpse cuz i'm looking fast
a reflection in some crooked glass
this is the first, but it could be last
this is the present but it could be past

who knows where it goes from here?
but for now you go something that you chose to hear
i'm exposing my weakness, my hopes and fears
but i got no ambitions
this is no career

(repeat ad nauseam)
