I'm just tryna do it all at once
Everybody wanna try to tell me that it's too much
Ain't nobody gonna laugh when I'm gettin' funds
And I love my life, so what else should I want, yeah
Yeah I'm just tryna do it all at once
Everybody wanna try to tell me that it's too much
Ain't nobody gonna laugh when I'm gettin' funds
And I love my life, so what else should I wantI said it’s gonna take some time and the time’s up
I quit counting on me, myself, and my luck
I’m getting it together and I’m getting out of dodge
And I’m making sure my dreams ain’t gon’ be a mirage
Gotta hustle every moment, breathe in, breathe out
It ain't gonna fall in place just being devout
Nah I wonder if they wonder what I’m thinking about
But it’s all too much, man I should keep it down
It’s too complicated for their little minds to understand
Come back in twenty years and you’ll see it was planned
That's not a threat, it’s a promise, I won’t be reading the comments
And I ain't ripping off, I’m stealing and paying homage
I said it back then, man, I’m so gifted
But all that comes with being so different
A little insane to be a little unique, yeah
You know what i mean?I'm just tryna do it all at once
Everybody wanna try to tell me that it's too much
Ain't nobody gonna laugh when I'm gettin' funds
And I love my life, so what else should I want, yeah
Yeah I'm just tryna do it all at once
Everybody wanna try to tell me that it's too much
Ain't nobody gonna laugh when I'm gettin' funds
And I love my life, so what else should I want, yeahOne breath, one step, one day at a time
I gotta get on stage, I’m already there in my mind
I'm gonna have a couple people that I’m leaving behind
They can’t all come with, they can’t all make the climb
Yeah, it’s unfortunate but real and I’m hoping that I can deal
With all the complications arising between every meal
Man, it’s hard to think straight when all you seem to do is feel
But I think I’m gonna make and I’m gonna make it real
“Remember when you wanted to be where you are now!”
But I didn’t ever want to be here, so just calm down
Man, I gotta a lot of work on the road ahead
I sure hope that I can step aside before I’m dead
But gimme a second to flip and rip it and see just where my head’s at
I’m learning I don’t gotta be the best at
Every little part of every plan for a dream
Cause it’s a long story
You’ll see what I mean\\

It’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire if I know the plan
Man I got the power, I don’t need a hand
Cause I know what I’m not, and I know what I am
It’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire if I know the plan
Man I got the power, I don’t need a hand
Cause i know what I’m not, and I know what I am, yeahLet me at’em, let me roll, it’s my time to go
I ain’t stopping till I’ve played my hand, I won’t fold
But that’s the issue, I been crying “I miss you”
But I’m tryna misuse, so keep your tissues
"I ain’t got time to be all safe and sweet" nah
But what’s it gonna cost to get from A to B?
Nah the limited omnipotence is make believe
But if I bought in, why am I not praying to me? (yeah)
It's kinda crazy when you get right to it
But I won’t stay down, no I know what I’m doing
I just get myself placated and then think I went through it
But I'm goin' in circles, so I’m never really moving
I’m just throwing paper planes, hoping one of’em will fly
While I sit in my mind looking up at the sky
Like "God, won’t you help me get back on my feet?"
But He don’t wanna talk, He don’t wanna listen to meIt’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire if I know the plan
Man I got the power, I don’t need a hand
Cause I know what I’m not, and I know what I am
It’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire if I know the plan
Man I got the power, I don’t need a hand
Cause I know what I’m not, and I know what I am, yeahScaredy cat and I’m scared of that
With plus ten confidence, I’m moving in parallax
I got this greatness that inside of me but it’s become apparent that
I won’t be going anywhere if I’m impaired with that
Need to have to control and it’s gripping me by my throat
So I’ll be right there, as soon as it lets me go
But if it does then I’ll fall, nine point eight straight down
And I’m concerned that nobody will be waiting for me on the ground
It’s a setup for a letdown, and I don’t trust the one to claim I love
So you can see why I’m a mess now
A little on the nose, it’s on the tip of my tongue
But every time I wanna jump, nah I just turn back and run
He said I’m gonna crash if I keep this up, yeah
Maybe I shouldn’t try to play so tough
I just need to close my eyes and then take a breath
I just need to let go and then take a stepIt’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire if I know the plan
Man I got the power, I don’t need a hand
Cause I know what I’m not, and I know what I am
It’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire if I know the plan
Man I got the power, I don’t need a hand
Cause I knowIt’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire ‘fore I know the plan
I don’t got the power, but I got my hands
And I know that I’m not, and I know I Am
Yeah it’s a mess, I’m a mess, and I know that I am
And I'll walk through the fire ‘fore I know the plan
I don’t got the power, but I got my hands
And I know that I’m not, and I know I Am\\

I’m chaotic and it’s beautiful, I’m ready to go
You better fly, butterfly, in the scarlet and snow
One, two, three, four, I’m getting ready to blow
Tell your friends I’m heaven-sent and I’mma put on a showCalm down, calm down, take a chill pill
But I can’t, cause I’m the real deal
I'm the real thing, don't you see?
No, come to terms with the real me
I’ll be laughing if you think that you been fooling me
I ain't gon' cut off a clove just to help someone be cool with me
Get it if you get it, if I said it then I meant it
I’m here to play the long game, I ain’t gon' be offended
If you can’t keep up, cause I been at this for some years
But I had a couple fears that kept me from switching gears
That’s just how it goes, I’m bout to counter blows
Gonna read up and be talkin with that power prose
Not that A-B-A-B but like "Jesus save me, save me"
It’s getting so crazy, crazy, take me back to maybe, maybeIs there nowhere a monument to what I once was?
Is there nowhere a path to what it is I will become?
Tell me, who am I that I must carry this weight?
Tell me, who am I that I must need this strength?I’m chaotic and it’s beautiful, I’m ready to go
You better fly, butterfly, in the scarlet and snow
One, two, three, four, i’m getting ready to blow
Tell your friends I’m heaven-sent and I’mma put on a showI’m doing it all at once and it’s such a mess
But I know still I Am and I’m still heaven-sent
I got some friends that been saying I been making slappers
But what if rap thinks I’m a poser, man I started as an actor
I'll flip the script like EJ, things are going off these days
Got a huge menu, cheesecake, I’m a picky eater, God feed me
Thirsty, so drink up so my heart don’t burn like reflux
I know that I need love but I ain’t gonna find it up in the hub
No, you know what I’m saying
Triplet, triplet, triplet that be the flow that I’m slaying
They ain’t gonna tell me the game that I’m playing’s amazing
cause they don’t know what I been saying, but
Slow it down, then we go double time
Everybody gonna love it when it get out of my mind
But we ain’t there yet, gotta keep it quiet
I’m heavensent, I’m the golden child, yeahWelcome to the mind of a madman
I ain’t in a box, cause my name ain’t Matt and
I ain’t tryna save the world, I’m just trying to rap and
Help the people living in the dark night like Batman
Trash rhymes, but I’m a raccoon
Man I'm eating’em up like a meal at noon
It got quite dark inside of my cocoon
But fly, butterly, I’m about to zoom
Double the pace until you finish the race
I’m in the middle of the moment when I’m MIA
But now I’m ready to rock, and I’m ready roll
And this time I’m ready to run, I won’t stroll
That which you must do, is what must be done
And there’s no try, young padawan
Man I kinda wanna work, kinda wanna have fun
And I kinda wanna say I kinda wanna fall in love
But I ain't really feeling like safe and sweet
When think half the world’ll be hating me
And I cope by living in make believe
And I’m thinking I should go to therapyBut it’s whatever, I’m sure I’m fine
I don't need anyone poking in my mind
Man I'll get it together, then I’ll be alright
But maybe not, I don't know, lemme think and then write
Nevertheless the present is always just a second-guess
I’m wondering how long it’s gonna be before it’s definite
I got a voice inside my head and I am trying to deafen it
Cause I know that everything that it’s telling me’s a detriment
And everybody telling me that I need to remember them
And everybody wondering how I am gonna represent
I’ll prolly make a mess of it, but I still got the medicine
Cause though I am maleficent, you better know I’m–\\
