Intro
I'm just
Theorizing
Toking
Riding the highs
Stop and think why
Got me smoking all this dope
Writing hazed lines
Chorus
Talking 'bout that line for line
Line for line line for line line for line
line for line line
line for line
Line line line line line
Verse 1
I was stressing
Second guessing
Turning pressure into lessons
Had a vision on a mission
Had to sharpen my direction
But how
Do I find the new tune
When the old me still talks
And I'm trying to move through
I remember back when
I was lower than I showed you
Trying to be Goku
Powering through what I go through
They said it was a crack town
Still, I never backed down
Everybody talking
I just let 'em hear the track now
Down in the Shwa
I had to grow from the old me
Sketchy roads, cold blocks
Still, I kept my soul hot
I don't care
I'm in the zone
Built the vision on my own
Line for line
I found a way
To make the struggle feel like home
Ayy nice hit
Let the beat switch
I don't need to fake shit
I just need a reason
I've been writing through the seasons
Trying to fight my inner demons
If I said it, then I mean it
If I dream it, I believe it
Yeah
I'm just keeping on
Voice ready
Mind calm
Every line I write
Got a piece of me drawn
Had to stay strong
When the days felt long
Now they sing along
Like they knew it all along
Refrain
I'm just
Theorizing
Toking
Riding the highs
Stop and think why
Got me smoking all this dope
Writing hazed lines
Chorus
Talking 'bout that line for line
Line for line line for line line for line
line for line line
line for line
Line line line line line
Verse 2
Now they know I'm in the lab
Trying to turn a thought to craft
Used to laugh behind my back
Now they asking where I'm at
I was lost in bad habits
Trying to find some damn balance
Had to face my own patterns
Had to turn pain into practice
No more chasing every high
Just to cover what I hide
Had to look into my mind
Had to read between the lines
One line
Two lines
Then the whole page moves
Every wrong turn taken
Gave me something I could use
I was broke, so
Had to break out
Less is more
That's what I learned now
Rarely fully up
But you know I'm still down
For the people who believed
When I had doubt
Fifty-fifty odds
Line for line coin toss
Take a chance being the boss
I don't care what it costs
At my new place
Trying to build a new pace
Count the hours till I wake
Then I work through the new day
Damn
I want a clean slate
Less hate, more faith
Trying to cut the cake
Without losing my own taste
Baked like a vision
Cooked by ambition
Flying so high
But I'm grounded in the mission
Angels could be fables
Still, I stay faithful
Anxious and unstable
But I'm willing and able
To forget what we know
Let go
No enemies
Get growth
Gotta have
No pride
No ego
Gotta take my own advice though
Cause y'all know
Refrain
I'm just
Theorizing
Toking
Riding the highs
Stop and think why
Got me smoking all this dope
Writing hazed lines
Chorus
Talking 'bout that line for line
Line for line line for line line for line
line for line line
line for line
Line line line line line
Verse 3
Yeah you know
I'm back in
Line for line again
Old bars still hit
But I'm sharper with the pen
Reeling in
Feeling it
Filling in
For the whole crew
So true
Every verse got proof
Rapping like I'm four of ya
Pressure made euphoria
I don't need the glory
I just need to tell the story, yeah
Sorry if I bore ya
But I'm locked in
Every loose thought
Gets boxed in
Every bad night
Gets dropped in
Every raw truth
Gets chopped in
Gotta hear these bars
I be up so far
Blessed every day
Like I'm dealt a good card
But luck ain't enough
When the road gets rough
You gotta build from the dust
When the dream gets tough
Life is just an inning
Watch it come and go
Faster than you know
So I'm writing while it flows
Going all out
Let the game keep going
No fallout
I'm just focused on growing
Ain't hard to spit the truth
My life in these lines
What's hard is your mind
If it's closed all the time
Too stubborn to find
The value in the rhyme
I'm trying to bring a message
Be ahead of the times
Line for line
I turn thought into design
Every word got weight
Every bar got spine
Kept moving
Mind proving
I'm still improving
Every track I touch
Got the whole room moving
Line for line
Yeah, I built this from the ground
If you listen close enough
You can hear me coming now
Refrain
Theorizing
Toking
Riding the highs
Stop and think why
Got me smoking all this dope
Writing hazed lines
Final Chorus
Talking 'bout that line for line
Line for line line for line line for line
line for line line
line for line
Line line line line line
I'm just theorizing
