Academy Freestyle Songtext
von SonReal

There′s so much inside of me, like a show car, there's no driving me
Off the deep end ′cause I've been there, and I'd like to thank the academy
For all the times that acted like my afterthoughts had no afterlife
Being too different can take its toll, authenticity has its price

My pain trickle when the sample run
I get right to it, I don′t have to run
I got one life, I got one wife
I got one kid, I′m 'bout to add two
And this pen don′t move itself
I got things to say that I never felt
I got stones unturned that I never rolled
I got stories here that I never told (I know, I know)


Lately, I been seasick, my heart vroom like a V6
FaceTime my sister, everyday I miss her
Haven't even met my niece yet
Got an old friend going through things
I wish I could take all that pain away
I wanna be the one that you can come to
And that good news just a day away

I put my life on blast
No highlights, no shiny lights
No peddy hype, I steady write to save my life
′Cause without this, I might just fade away
Like hardaway into harder days
But I prefer the Shawn Carter way
I make the song cry while I encore

I got everything, I don't want more
An′ I see it all from the top floor
To be honest with you, I just paint a picture based on things that I fought for
39th Ave to Sherman Oaks
From my pop's basement just burnin' smoke
God watching on me, yeah, God watching on me

And he never miss, yeah, I know
Nobody′s happy all the time
That′s something that they don't quite show
Let it go, Academy freestyle
