The Boy, Optionmusic - Silver Lining lyrics

Just tryna find that silver lining you know?
This for the soul

Still out weighing these options
And everything comes with timing
And everyday isn't promised
Hope these odds even
More angels and less demons
Know these streets scheming
Keep sleeping they’ll slide on u
With that streetsweeper
Just hitcha and keep it moving
Like ain't nothing happen
Another tragic another casket
Another son that's absent no snitching
When cops asking they don’t know what happen
That's just the demographics damn
It's getting realer than real
Can't expect you to relate
If u ain't seen it yourself
Everybody makes mistakes


Are u correcting yourself
Either u living a lie
Or just ain't true to yourself
Look yourself in that mirror
And get to really know em
How u know the direction
But still not where you going
How u got all the answers
But still don't really know it
Just some words for the wise
It's just the truth I’m flowing
Hope your pencils handy
Take some notes my latest quotes
Have been a bit uncanny
Just a dose when I’m provoked
I wouldn't tempt em actually
So wise and crafty yet young and savvy
Got the baton been running rhymes
As if I’m an athlete who u know
That paint a picture like this
The game talking saying
Option back to spitting that shit
Them strep throat flows
Yo dam we bouta kill em again
We bounce back and all them losses
Helped us get to them wins that's real
Wear my heart my sleeve but don't push me
Ain't been entertaining no beef
But, I’m no pussy
Game been getting harder to leave
But, I'm no rookie so seasoned
Lately balling like post season
When it's on the line
This little light of mine
Just bound the shine give it time
Back when Ive wasted time
On getting signed living lies
Even cut family ties
Survived thru the realest times
This some of my realest lines
And realest rhymes uh sacrifices
Paid my dues so many times
Feel like they overpriced it
Said everything it comes with time
I'm sick of sitting and watching
My 5 album getting better
Found the silver lining
Feel like it's perfect timing
Set your pride to the side
And just free your mind
Why all the real seem to die
And fake stay alive
Why when it's green thats involved
Snakes then arrive
Not just the people that change
So do the times yeah got that century flow
That's why they envy pockets empty
Most my days they been broke
And ain't never sell dope or
Sell my soul to try in fit in with most
That quote alone
Is what would make me a goat yeah
Just hope they taking care
Down with whatever cause it's whatever
If we take it there
Can't trust the refs they calling techs
The game ain't never fair
Won't never let upand got my head up
Very well aware
Lifetime moments from distant smiles
To the shallow tears
This for the people that's dead and gone
And no longer here
This for the people behind bars
Facing a hunnit years
This for the mothers, the single mothers
With no fathers there tryna stay strong
Been hangin on thru the brutal years
Seen it clear seem like my latest
And truest fears come from my truest friends
Love hate & money
The 3 things that'll never blend
But still i break bread cuz certain moments
Ain't a price to spend gotta be right within
Who u know that paint a picture like this
The streets talking
Saying Option back to spitting that shit
Them strep throat flows
Told mom's we bouta kill em again
We bounce back and all them losses
Helped us get to them wins that's real
