Adele - Hello (Abstract X Blulake Remix) [12 Years]

Staring at the man in the mirror, thoughts of who I was could make the present clearer Everything I worked for is gettin nearer, but they don't tell you what you lose Things you don't trip over till you're walking in the shoes, uneasy lies the head that where's the crown, that's the truest shit The more you gain the more you start to worry about losing it, tryna to quit these cigarettes i know that I ain't ready yet Man you should be happy you're becoming what they dream to be, you can put that shit in quotes cause that's what they all say to me I know that they're right, that ain't an oversight I'm paranoid, lose myself in movies, comics book the feeling still annoys Can't escape it mind is racing least I know I'm not complacent, where I am and where I should be to me truly not adjacent, while I sit in silence I hear sirens like a telephone, a call from the man I was before I made the music home I remember living on the other side, dropping album after album tryna get to mine Wonder what they used to say behind my back, cause the way they come up to me now they're taking something back I ain't trippin, everything is different, just another change, ain't dismissive, glad they fuckin with it, Ill go act my age I'm over how it used to be I turned the page, scrapped the book, but making sense of where I'm at sometimes it takes a second a look See if we go way back, before I even liked rap, watching music videos I wanted to be like that Played along to Jet on some boxes I set up like drums, Get Born on my CD player goin off that's what it was I was obsessed with how a melody could push a feeling, how one song could help me through emotions I was tryna deal with Now I give that gift to others, making the kid in me proud, a call and message that I needed took 12 years to get it, wow!
