Mindful

(Mindful)
(Mindful)
Yeah
(Mindful)
Let me talk to y'all real quick
(Mindful)

I got a mindful
Sometimes I wish it'd slow down
23 years and never thought
This is how shit would go down
Excuse my language momma
But ya baby boy is grown now
Least I aint talkin' guns or poppin' pills
Like none of those clowns
Yeah
Like none of those clowns
That blow up these days
These waves, I ride my own now
Tryna make it out my hometown
And make my family so proud
Yeah that's just all I'm on now
You feel me
Look
Born and raised in Decatur
Yeah the dirty made me
I swear I love my city
But sometimes it can get crazy
Kids barely go outside no more
So worried bout they safety
So they runnin' round with guns
What's really going on these days
We
Need to come together
Instead of actin' so shady
They wanna see you win
But not more than them
So they start hating
Comparison steals joy
And no other life can phase me
Or I'd be playin' myself
And I don't got time to be wasting
All the losses I took
Had me feeling numb like I'm pain-free
Tomorrow's not promised
Gotta keep that in mind on the daily

I'm mindful (Mindful)
Yeah
I gotta mind full (Mindful)
I'm mindful (Mindful)
Yeah
I gotta mind full (Mindful)

Cause life don't always go the way you want
And that's something you gotta deal with
I'm the one that won't sugarcoat
And tell you the real shit
On the road to greatness
Somethin' inside me can feel it
Pursuin' happiness
While my mind racin'
No (Wheels) Will Smith
Always been a deep thinker
Prolly overdue it
But after everything I lost
I always had the music
I got older
And came about it like a outlet
Listened to my favorite artists
To help me get through it
Now I see why they do it
I'm puttin' my thoughts into somethin'
I feel is great
My state of mind is like a god
I swear everyday I create,
Somethin' magic
Can't pay attention to the hate
You just gotta laugh at it
Some people just rather put you down
Wishin' they had it
Instead of bringin' themselves up
It's kinda tragic
And I don't meant to sit up here
Talkin' like I'm just perfect
I mean it's safe to say
We've all had our bad habits
But are they worth it

I'm mindful (Mindful)
Yeah
I gotta mind full (Mindful)
I'm mindful (Mindful)
Yeah
I gotta mind full (Mindful)

Aye
Just don't be mad at me because I did this
And you might be scared to do it
Yeah you'll diss like you can do better
But yet you never prove it
All that pride and ego in the way
You must be scared to lose it
Seekin' validation from people
That you ain't even cool with
Now you listenin' to me thinkin' like
Wait, do I do this
Well, most likely
But, you just been clueless
I really want you to be more aware of your influence
Cause its kids that might look up to you
And you just never knew it
I might be my favorite artist now
But that's just how it should be
Feel like a seasoned vet
Just tryna school a bunch of rookies
In '18 lost my closest cousin
Soul sweet as sugar cookies
Lost myself too on the fact
Never expected that she would leave
It opened my eyes
To a new perspective of what life could be
Tryna do what's right
Like a sense of urgency overtook me
You want the world to change for the better
Then play ya role
With you and me is where it starts
Just gotta be smart
Forget the bad news
You see all on your phone
Only got time for the positive vibes
Until I'm gone

I'm mindful (Mindful)

Yeah
I gotta mind full (Mindful)
I'm mindful (Mindful)
