Sunken Treasure
V1: Wait, let me get your attention!
Focused on ev'ryone else but can't complete yo mission.
Turning to the wrong people for advice but don't think twice.
Putting on a fake smile, claiming you're alright
Bottled up emotions made you fall for the pipe
Afraid to truly vent, can't comprehend or know who to call a friend
Tell the truth and question if it's time well spent
C: They say sunken treasure can lose its value
Give it to the wrong people who don't care about the outcome
Watch them turn something precious into constantly stressin'
Go m.i.a. so confused about the direction
Is it a loss or a blessing?
Talk to God yet go to man for confession
Constantly hurt using the wrong protection
V2: All the pain drives you insane
Wanting to escape while stuck in a freeze frame
Conseal yo feelings, it ain't nothin' but a g thang
Live and learn without realizing the better hand
Broken relations can be highly mistaken
Think it's all down hill but it's preparing you in the makin
Growing deeper and following yo dreams, neva complacent
Whenever life throws curveballs, just remember life's your for the taking
