Sins of Necessity

Used to live so fresh with a heart full of reason
Now we change our beat with the changing seasons
But the rhythm is on repeat so you still grievin'
I think you lost yo'self in all the people pleasin'
It's time you ask yo'self what do you believe in?
Ignore the rest, & the feelins, jus' freeze 'em

So fresh and so damn young
On a fast track to number one
But coming out short of 100%
being anything less than the best
Left your mind in a state of unrest
Heart locked down, under arrest

Looking back now, its all over and done
what a damn shame of a life you run
You should've been brighter than the hi-tea sun
You would've been the (rock)star, second to none
But the fears got you goin' so far from top gun
falling out of favor, you're no longer the wanted one

Maybe bein' a star just wasn't in your cards
But you worked so hard to not be who you are
All that harmless rebellion turned to reckless decadence
you went from honor medallions to shameless dalliance

And the ego grew as fast as the self doubt
Ain't no chance you'd last in the next drought
Now you're tryna bargain with dirty hands
But shit, nothings ever fair in the devils land

Shoulda thought 2x before you chose the costliest vice
Cause your very own future was the starting price
