Before I Die

If I don't do something

I'ma rot in this room, four walls, no sky

Same old search bar, same old scroll

Whole day gone in a blink of an eye

Mama said “boy, you blessed, go try”

But I been playin' safe, scared of the climb

Talk big dreams, then I stall, then I lie

Tell myself “tomorrow” while tomorrow flies by

If I don't do something before I die

I'ma haunt myself for the rest of my life (yeah)

All these “one days” piled in my mind

Gotta turn one into now, not a line online

If I don't do something before I go

Bury me under the words “almost” (almost)

I don't want a stone say “he was kinda nice”

I want 'em say “he risked it all, paid the price” (let's go)

If I don't move now, who gon' move for me?

No hero in a cape, just the truth on me

Clock in my chest sayin' “prove somethin', prove somethin'”

Fear in my head sayin' “do nothin', do nothin'”

I been hidin' my heart like it's contraband

Laugh it off when I say I got plans

But I see that kid in the mirror, red eyes

Ask me, “you proud if today is your last?”

If I don't do something before I die

I'ma haunt myself for the rest of my life (for real)

All these “one days” piled in my mind

Gotta turn one into now, not a line online

If I don't do something before I go

Bury me under the words “almost” (oh no)

I don't want a stone say “he was kinda nice”

I want 'em say “he risked it all, paid the price” (yeah, yeah)
