Greydon Square - Grow Too Old Soon lyrics

I used to be good just weed
And a bag of chips
Now I’m more fascinated by DMT and Acid Trips
A partial cosmos we live in
Just a patch of it
I’m more into the symmetrical
Negative that matching it
We don’t know where reality stops
It could be a simulation or a sanity lost
I talk but my family
Of thoughts is dysfunctional
I’m lost just like everyone else
I can’t punish you
Lowercase c represents light speed
All these subliminal hints to Type I I I
Might be just a pipe dream inside the
Mind of a fried group home kid psyche
These aren't parts they’re images
Of the whole
We are stardust a ship? assemble
It and we’ll go be apart of the trip the
Membership and the goal
From the start we’ll put into
It heart until we’re old

We grow too old soon, and too late wise
Useful lives full trying to escape time
A few remain just to hang
With the great minds
The most insane work and strain
‘til it’s break time

You remain claimless, I’m a stake mine
I didn't become famous, it became mine
I aimed to have my story
Carved into the cave line
That’s why we playing for
Tomorrow while today’s fine

Don’t want to be viewed like a prized athlete
As long as I change one life with
My music then i’ll die happy
This is the curse of the creative person
The integrity of the art or just to the
Chance to sign your name in cursive
If you don’t love money
They say you’re worthless
Aimless waiter servants waiting on the
Industry like table service
To give em able purpose
Write their rhymes for em
And lay their verses
And you wonder why the game has worsened
Guys battle even less than before
I’d rather leave an easy lesson for all
Before I exit this world
And the only thing I’d regret
Is that I didn't discover earlier
How to be fresh
With the lyrics and the bar schemes
Blame my situation it's part
Environment part genes
And it’s part me I’ll admit it
Hip hop was my wife, my mistress composition

We grow too old soon, and too late wise
Useful lives full trying to escape time
A few remain just to hang
With the great minds
The most insane work and strain
‘til it’s break time

You remain claimless, I’m a stake mine
I didn’t become famous, it became mine
I aimed to have my story
Carved into the cave line
That’s why we playing for
Tomorrow while today’s fine

If you ask me, I’m dying in the studio
Just play the last thing I was
Working on at my funeral
It’s not who you know
It’s what you do with what you have
We were out seizing the day while
You were home puffin grass
Wait, that was me instead of you
Learning from the things I always
Plan but never do
Nope, that was you instead of me
Believe me you don’t want me
As a true celebrity
Because I'll start tellin’ the people
They never needed the
Record labels, politics, gods
Or corporate media
They know they’ll have to answer
Things when I come in
How many ideas stolen from a
Slave or a woman?
Why are you still making a big
Deal when the blunt’s lit?
You wouldn't raise a fuss if
It was another substance
So just quit adjust and relate
I feel like this is all stuff
That I learned too late but

We grow too old soon, and too late wise
Useful lives full trying to escape time
A few remain just to hang
With the great minds
The most insane work and strain
‘til it’s break time

You remain claimless, I’m a stake mine
I didn't become famous, it became mine
I aimed to have my story
Carved into the cave line
That’s why we playin for
Tomorrow while today’s fine
