| You ever get told that everywhere you're turning
 You're turning the wrong way?
 Well I have
 This one's for you
 
 Yo, I'm a ghost, a dream
 Something in between
 If I die today
 It's like I never would have been
 And I need to rise like like the mist and the steam
 Up in the clouds, where I can be seen
 Because I, I'm the spectacle for the eyes
 Look into my soul, you can see the fire
 Look into my eyes, you can see the flames
 Burns the ink from my soul to the page
 
 And you can try to drown, try to hold me down, but I can't be held
 Helium in my bounce, and I rise
 How can I be stopped from rising?
 
 Yo, and it takes a second to be thrown off your bases
 Fuck me if I'm trapped in a stasis
 I know the basics
 I can relate this
 My incentive to talk is makeshift
 And I'm trying to make this, from scratch
 But everywhere I turn, there's a wall staring back
 Too white, too young, you don't come from the slums
 You need a fucking edge to become number one
 Well I got my edge, here is my knife
 Lyrical fucking blade to your life
 What more can I say?
 
 Try to get signed, boy are you high, you're crazy
 You want to do rap, that's enough of that, you're crazy (you're crazy)
 You're from the UK, that's the wrong place, you're crazy
 So go get a job, and give this all up, you're crazy (you're crazy)
 
 Yo, and maybe this is true, but what am I to do?
 I'm just a slave to the rhythm in my shoes
 I just hear the drums, and write the rhyme that come
 Just another instrument, playing right along
 So play me for a fool
 And say that I ain't cool
 But I don't give a flying fuck what you think what I do
 I spit it at the top like I'm breaking a barometer
 Take me to Andromeda
 I am a phenomena
 So love me, or hate me
 Well, whatever makes you crazy
 
 And you can try to drown, try to hold me down, but I can't be held
 Helium in my bounce, and I rise
 How can I be stopped from rising?
 
 Yo, step by step I inch along to my fate
 And people along the way tell me my shit is great
 And people along the way tell me my shit is whack
 It's kind of hard to elevate above that
 But I try, because whenever I look to the sky
 I see her face, and I'm trying to climb
 Cause I'm trying to reach, to give my girl a kiss
 Little mama you going to be proud of your kid
 And by the time I'm done, I will have rose
 See you in the stars, and that you will know, for a show
 
 Try to get signed, boy are you high, you're crazy
 You want to do rap, that's enough of that, you're crazy (you're crazy)
 You're from the UK, that's the wrong place, you're crazy
 So go get a job, and give this all up, you're crazy (you're crazy)
 
 Alex, you're crazy
 
 Yeah, everybody says
 
 Try to get signed, boy are you high, you're crazy
 You want to do rap, that's enough of that, you're crazy (you're crazy)
 You're from the UK, that's the wrong place, you're crazy
 So go get a job, and give this all up, you're crazy (you're crazy)
