about

It’s hard to progress when you’re “Stuck” on something that isn’t working. On this song frustrations with childhood dreams as an adult are expressed coupled with other conflicting loyalties.

lyrics

Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are

Rapping and rapping and making my way
Vanilla vanilla cream on the top
Damn my surrounding is freezing better get popping thats my mind set.
Everything goals i see it as gold
I think am in my 20s
I got dreams dreams
But don’t know how to approach ‘em
I got
Fear fear fear am scared of failure
Am scared of letting go
Am scared of getting older
Am scared of everything that comes with responsibility
Am scared of competition tend to get more anxiety

Hopping and hopping to make it to top
Everything moving at speeds of sounds
I Never waste no time i told myself i got the talent
Nobody can tell me nothing I roll the dice and let the odds place
yeah i play like cold play
Only Jahova can stop me blessed me back when i was young
Singing and rapping in church i watched the congregation cheer
King in the booth and am feeling like this is what mama prepared me for
Get progressive ignore what’s stuck and let it go

Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are

Every time a purchase at the store
I get those mini heartbeats
Every time my card is swiped
I pray it won’t be declined
Apart of me will never learn
Am spending every penny i make to feed the pride
I be dealing with ma shadows my finance is a disease
It ruins ma relationships thats why they all decease
My skin is black
Am scared of po po
My creative ego won’t be silent
I don’t know who i can trust
Everything could fall apart
Family crowded by rats
Think i need ‘phetamine to feel alright
Just an addiction but I’ll be alright
Hold down the circle that’s loyal so far
Hope in the future that been on my mind
Morph into something that’s loyal to me
Get of demons clinging on me
Go back to Africa just for the voodoo
Push on the button just for the vroom
Feel like Apollo am on ran-devour

How do you land when you stack in a past
How do you learn when you stack in a wav
How do you think when you stuck in the mind
Who do you blame when its all of your fault
Living your life like a puppet
You gotta be kidding
Don’t wait to be told what to do
I feel my mind criticising ma demons
Thats disreputable body lazy
I see change inevitable getting comfortable
eating vegetables getting comfortable
Let me rap
Soon as we make some money we spend it on bling and bitches thats how shit go
It gotta be more than hoes
It gotta be more than weed
It gotta be more than ice
It gotta be more than wheels
It gotta be more than greed
It gotta be more of love
It gotta be more than luck
It gotta be more of hustle
It gotta be more than bars
It gotta be more connection

Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
Recognise that you ain’t moving forward and you
Stuck in a place
Stuck in your past
Stuck in your words
Stuck in your dreams
Stuck in a moment and only you know where you are
