The Resistance

Yesterday when we were getting high

You were invited, you would've liked it

Uh-uh I know you all too well

I said that we could kiss the past goodbye

But you weren't excited, there's no way to fight it

You could stay, but shawty here I go

Uh, should I spend the weekend in Vegas?

I'm living inside the moment, not taking pictures to save it

I mean, how could I forget? My memory's never faded

I can't relate to these haters, my enemies never made it

I am, still here with who I started with

The game needed life, I put my heart in it

I blew myself up, I'm on some martyr sh-

Carry the weight for my city, like a cargo ship

Uh, I'm 23 with a money tree

Growing more too, I just planted a hunna seeds

It's ironic 'cause my mother was a florist

And that's how she met my pops

And now my garden is enormous

It's happenin' Penny Lane, just like you said

I avoided the Coke game and went with Sprite instead

Uh-uh, that's word to the millions that they puttin' up

I'm tryna do better than good enough

What am I afraid of?

This is supposed to be what dreams are made of

But people I don't have the time to hang with

Always look at me and say the same sh-

They say, "You promised me you would never change"

You promised me you would never change

Am I wrong for making light of my situation?

Clap on, before they got some sh- for me to snap on

Now that I'm on, I don't really wanna worry 'bout gettin' back on

I'm just tryna stay on, get my f- buffet on

I heard they just moved my grandmother to a nursing home

And I be actin' like I don't know how to work a phone

But hit re-dial, you'll see that I just called some chick I met at the mall

That I barely know at all

And, plus this woman that I messed with unprotected

Texted saying she wished she would have kept it

The one that I'm layin' next to just looked over and read it

Man, I couldn't tell you where the f- my head is, I'm holding on by a thread

It's like I'm high right now, the guy right now

And you can tell by looking in my eyes right now

That nothing really comes as a surprise right now

'Cause we just having the time of our lives right now

What am I afraid of?

This is supposed to be what dreams are made of

But people I don't have the time to hang with

Always look at me and say the same sh-

They say, "You promised me you would never change"

You promised me you would never change

Uh, I live by some advice this girl Alyssa told me

The other day Alyssa told me that she missed the old me

Which made me question when I went missing

And when I start treating my friends different

Maybe it was the fast-paced switch up

Put up two guns in my face during the stick up

Maybe 'cause the girl I thought trusted was who set the whole s- up

But in fact I haven't seen 'em, since they locked Big Rich up

I know, the same time I'm quick to forget

I'm 'bout to roll me up a - with my list of regrets

Burn it all, burn it all, I'm startin' it fresh

'Cause half the time I got it right, I probably guessed

Did I just trade free time for camera time?

Will I blow all of this money baby, Hammer Time?

Yeah, I just need some closure

Ain't no turning back for me, I'm in it 'til it's over
