Lil Nas X - OCEAN lyrics

Yeah, am I wrong for tryna be someone else
Am I wrong for tryna be big as myself
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Now I ain't gon' lie though
Niggas finna get off my now
Yes, I am on a high note
Y'all niggas been high since the
I didn't learn from my lessons
Your word is your weapon
I talk with discretion
I hope you sit back and you listen
I hope you sit back and you listen

Don't you squint your emotions
Turn your life to lessons
Turn your goals into gold
And if you want my help
Just listen to your intuition
'Cause if you don't swim true
They gon' leave you in the ocean (Owayo)
Don't you switch your position
'Cause you move up in life when
You sit back and you listen
You do what you want
Don't listen to your tradition
'Cause if you don't swim too
They gon' leave you in the ocean

Tell me what you wanna be when
You looking in the mirror, look at me
Tell me what you wanna see
Do you close your eyes, sometimes?
Do you dream, sometimes?
Do you look up in the sky and fly?
Do you dream of flying?
Spent a lot of my time trying
To hide what was deep inside
So tell me, am I wrong?
(Truth say, truth say)
How can I be wrong? (Truth say, truth say)
Tell me, am I wrong for tonight

Don't you squint your emotions
Turn your life to lessons
Turn your goals into gold
And if you want my help
Just listen to your intuition
'Cause if you don't swim true
They gon' leave you in the ocean (Owayo)
Don't you switch your position
'Cause you move up in life when
You sit back and you listen
You do what you want
Don't listen to your tradition
'Cause if you don't swim too
They gon' leave you in the ocean

Owayo don't you squint your emotions
Turn your life to lessons
Turn your goals into golden
And if you want my help
Just listen to your intuition
'Cause if you don't swim true
They gon' leave you in the ocean (Owayo)
Don't you switch your position
'Cause you move up in life when
You sit back and you listen
You do what you want
Don't listen to your tradition
'Cause if you don't swim too
They gon' leave you in the ocean
