Protostar!
Tobi, I'm sorry I ain't been there for you
Call you my brother, show little to no care for you
But you know the drill, chasing women, seeking affection
Ignoring enemies in my immediate section
Praising me in they mentions
Became addicted to vapes I'm in a hazy dimension
We just two souls on our own journey
When it comes to your heart , I can only hope I'm worthy
Just being open, there are moments when I'm so worried
That I've let go of something legendary
And bro I'm tryna hold on but this world is extra scary
I'm sorry, but at thе same extremеly honored
That you would even make an album and still have me on it
You’ve done so much for me
How could I ever repay you
Hope you know when I'm with my girl I make it a point to replay you
And these rhyme schemes feel basic but the message is heavy
I hesitate to work on the soul tape ‘cause I don't know if I'm ready
‘Cause when we drop it, our lives gon' change
What if I become a slave to them iced out chains?
What if i forget everything that made me Thiago Frazier?
And we stop talking and go from compadres to strangers?
It weighs on my conscience ‘cause I love you, I trust you
Time and time again you've forced me out my creative bubble
And I don't want no trouble between us, I mean this
Don’t take cursing lightly but bro you's a fucking genius
Between your concepts and ethics, I look up to you
Came from Maryland, still got that young Houston thug in you
And yo, my pen getting cold ‘cause of my frozen clutch
But all this to say I hope we keep our souls in touch
[Verse 2: tobi]
I’m sorry, I feel for everything
I feel for everyone
I feel the fear that sets aside when words hurt more than guns
I feel the need to reach inside my cheek and find the holy one
I seek a peek inside the leaves of trees that heed and preach of sleeping beasts and molded rust
I’ve tried to keep my soul in touch, forbid myself by writing empty lines and empty cuts
I feel me crush, I feel me cry and I feel me lust
I feel me fall in a crutch hiding from the sun
Hiding for so long, lost the feeling of love
Biting for the cross, and scheming for applause
Fighting with a mask, please don’t make me fall
Am I really who I wanna be?
Am I really what I wanna see?
Am I really one to judge when I hear apologies of empty crusts and common fallacies?
I try to keep it brief
Thinking for so long I always fill the sheet of what I wish to breathe
If I’m on a island, I’m sure to be surrounded by eyes tryna diminish my very climate
Born on a rotten tree all I need is to climb it
So tell my momma this
This is my right, this is everything I worked for just give it time
Fighting with no pen all I need is my wrist to write
Calling myself a legend, thought I deserved that light
Lost all reverence, turned to bars and lines where I was doomed by my strife
Conclusions are assumed bout my identity and life
You don’t know the truth of hiding from the sun and it’s shine
Lies, destroy my very being I’m seeing different things then what they preaching
I’m meaning to sacrifice my very own needs and pieces
I’ve faced bloodied lines of legions minimal rest getting to me the pressure right on my chest
Seen her eyes filled with hatred and aiming at my neck
While I’m paving the mistakes I’ve made and sign em to the next
So when you smile just know I’ve reached a crest
Till next year beloved, I hope you know I’m blessed, yes
