"die in LA" lyrics
I been conflicted, constricted, restricting myself to grow
The million ways that could've changed me, I wouldn't know
Just went where I was told go
Till me and my growth got stopped by the ends of every road
Without the knowledge or faith that's needed to make a leap
Without the imagination to get me outta my seat
Without the energy that's needed to carry all of my burdens through the rivers and creeks
Over hills with an angle too steep
It ain't that deep, is all they wrote
The sole thing that I have noted that's been floating on my intellect
Ready to make amends with myself from the future
Say that I regret I haven't crashed any sooner
Catching Zs, could say I'm hardly ever awake
Grown afraid of everything that I put down on my plate
And I'm done with it, done with it, don't wanna wait
Today, I die in LA
There's nothing standing in my way
Speed through traffic on the interstate
Life moves fast, caught up in the race
Flat tire, backfire, crash
Tell myself I'm okay
'Cause honestly I ain't got time to waste
No 9 to 5, it's night and day
I don't care if I break
I got dreams to chase
I'm on a ride, can't hit the breaks
Will I arrive one day
Or will I die in LA?
I got fright to return to the country that I come from
Cause the place that my headspace be in, be a bomb one
Elevated, energized, I radiate it
Put explosives to the walls, they been detonated
What once was desolated; prospering, swimming in growth
So on top of my shit it's like I'm
Swimming in gold
With all friends no foes, no cracks in the code
No cons just pros, in control and it shows
These stories were never told but now they bout to be
Cus I feel comfortable with all of the things that been surrounding me
And see, I love to see it but I'm prepared for the fall
Cus I know I'ma lose it all
Catching Zs, could say I'm hardly ever awake
Grown afraid of everything that I put down on my plate
And I'm done with it done with it don't wanna wait
Today, I died in LA
There's nothing standing in my way
Speed through traffic on the interstate
Life moves fast, caught up in the race
Flat tire, backfire, crash
Tell myself I'm okay
'Cause honestly I ain't got time to waste
No 9 to 5, it's night and day
I don't care if I break
I got dreams to chase
I'm on a ride, can't hit the breaks
Will I arrive one day
Or will I die in LA?
Come back alive in LA?
Will I die in LA?
Come back alive in LA?
'Cause honestly I ain't got time to waste
No 9 to 5, it's night and day
I don't care if I break
I got dreams to chase
I'm on a ride, can't hit the breaks
Will I arrive one day
Or will I die in LA?
The million ways that could've changed me, I wouldn't know
Just went where I was told go
Till me and my growth got stopped by the ends of every road
Without the knowledge or faith that's needed to make a leap
Without the imagination to get me outta my seat
Without the energy that's needed to carry all of my burdens through the rivers and creeks

Will I die in LA?
Come back alive in LA?

Will I arrive one day
Or will I die in LA?
