  • I've been busy, (busy busy)
    I've been fuckin' busy, I've been busy fuckin'
    I've been all kinds of busy, all sorta kinda busy
    Like shawty is we fuckin', well if not, then fuck it
    Apologies to the fam, they thought we ducked 'em
    Said I was in a rush but I was busy rushin'
    It's busy shit, busy that
    Busy this, and I need a minute

    See, this what that voice in your head says
    When you try to get peace of mind
    I gotta find peace of mind
    I gotta find peace of mind
    I gotta find peace of mind

    Spendin' time spinnin' out toward a desire that wasn't pure
    Born before the virus was cured, pitch perfect, violence on the floor
    Fast forward, linings on my skull, type of design I could afford
    Fast forward, bands out
    Got they hands out like they're acknowledgin' the Führer
    Rewind Nas track 6, rewind dance crazes
    Read my mind, freed my mind, feed my mind, makes sense
    Just like mirrors on the wall, just like sittin' on me
    Raw in mirrors seen it all, could make two, a piece of mind
    Flickin' ash, pourin' the Act, don't pour in a glass
    Pour it in foam, that's white like eggshells in my omelette
    My earlobes are yellow like the yolk is runnin'
    My brain on drugs, I still have no piece of mind, fuck
    Woof woof, dogs in the place, loose tooth, lost in the fray
    Roof lost on the Wraith, roof lost on the way
    Freeway, no Rozay, brute force, brut champagne
    Tell the front desk to cut new keys
    Reserved in the Mercer for two years, in two suites
    Took out the bed like it's fuck sleep
    I'll smack a bitch like it's hot hands
    Fired the label like fuck brands
    Comfortable low nigga, fuck Xans
    Comfortable slow, who the fuck ran?
    Nothin' is sweet, nothin' in tank sweet, it's just a tank P
    Salt on a slug, soda on slugged teeth, chewing on nothing
    You're tweakin' or somethin'
    You're reachin' for somethin'
    You're speakin', speak up then
    You're thinkin', you're overthinkin'
    One blink and I'm precummin'
    And that could turn every no one into someone

    I gotta find peace of mind
    I gotta find peace of mind
    I gotta find peace of mind
    I gotta find peace of mind
    You make my heart desire pure
    I gotta find peace of mind
    You make my heart desire pure
    I just need peace of mind for my purity
    You make my heart desire pure, just tell me
    You make my heart desire pure, just tell me

    Memories burn the roach heads
    Cheer Hennessy for my old heads
    Amphetamines for the dosage
    Keepin' me up and focused
    Jewelry cloth, my gold caps
    NY throwback like the old Fab
    I'm undone because
    Lost in the Google maps in your iMac, think my phone tapped
    Hold up, hold that (hold on my nigga, hold that thought), thought
    Nigga pour up soda nigga, hold that cough
    Tryna hold back, the call had dropped when the FaceTime paused
    Don't call back
    Can't cope when your heart broke
    Soft spoken, roll somethin', cop somethin', Narco
    Saint life Joan of Arc, bro
    Ring barcode
    Two of everything, should have been to blame when Noah's Ark broke
    Two more drinks of everything before the bar closed
    Face to face with my demons at a barstool
    Haven't checked on my niece in weeks
    Months past and months in between
    Since me and my sister would speak
    Not a call or visit in weeks, lost
    Nothin' since the September last
    Seen her September '16, man it feels like
    I'm undone because
    I lose someone every release, it feels like the curse is in me (A$AP)
    Percy is gone and I grief
    I'm undone because
    I share with you my piece

    I'm undone because Writer/s: Dean Blunt, Hector Delgado, Isaac de Boni, Lauryn Hill, Michael Mule, Rakim Mayers
