self actualization
by ejvthewriter
prod. by audiohope

[intro: uncle ben]
these are the years when a man changes into the man he’s gonna become the rest of his life. just be careful who you change into

[hook]
quote upon quote upon quote upon quote
note upon note upon note upon note
goal upon goal upon goal upon goal
a soul is a soul is a soul is a soul

[verse 1]
running through the streets
i’m looking for a solace
clay in his hands
he made me very cautious
the next step is college so i ain’t jobless
workaholic, i’m imperfect, but my work is flawless
i gotta go hard and be my own boss
one day, my t**th won’t be the only thing that i’ll floss
my path’s self destructive
i suffer much loss at my own hands
that’s the cross i bear
self*centered, self*hatred, self*love, self*care
i’d trade it all just to be self aware
i’m from suburbia, my issues are few
i found myself like i was the blue’s clue
my life will be great, i won’t blow it
i will expose it to the masses
everything i do will be a classic
i’m a king thanks to my upbringing
[hook]

note upon note upon note upon note
goal upon goal upon goal upon goal
a soul is a soul is a soul is a soul

[verse 2]
they say your life will flash before you die
that’s a lie
i reflect on the past all the time
i’m an adult with no responsibilities holding me back from who i can be
no, i can’t decide on just one path
my name is peter pan
i’m lost in neverland
hard to find a bulb when you’re the lamp
the plans that i had, they foiled
entitled, spoiled, in life i recoil
a shrub in a pond
how far can i grow up?
the only time i run is when i run amuck
the only time i act is when i’ve had enough
i’m saved, i’m lost
dead, alive
doubts are like babies
they cry and cry
i could’ve been somebody
i used to be the guy, but now my life’s a hurricane in paradise
[hook]

note upon note upon note upon note
goal upon goal upon goal upon goal
a soul is a soul is a soul is a soul

[verse 3]
diploma and degree, yet i retcon me
i went through what i went through and i’m still here
my destiny will manifest eventually
became everything that my younger self would fear
i thought to be a christian that all that god required was to “be good, do good” to avoid the fire
i’m his child, not just an evangelist
there’s things i must do
the part that’s best: i found the rest that my soul searched for
it wasn’t found in a goal or store
for rich or poor, he’ll always give more
i’m the first me and that’s who i’ll be
act one: the upbringing
they all clapped
act two: inept, the audience lacked
this third act brought both acts back
did it just to prove to myself i’m not a hack

[hook]
quote upon quote upon quote upon quote
note upon note upon note upon note
goal upon goal upon goal upon goal
a soul is a soul is a soul is a soul
