[Intro]
Different realm
Still present
Eyes open
But I left it
[Verse 1]
World is a stage
I’m backstage stressin
Crowd full of masks
Same laugh, same lessons
People move plastic
Copy-paste essence
I scroll through their souls
Ain’t one real sentence
I’m a glitch in the grid
Wrong code in the system
They talk, talk, talk
I fade, then I distance
I’m a loner, yeah
Seat for one at my table
Pour my thoughts in a notebook
Call that my cable
[Chorus]
I’m in a different realm, still present (still here)
Body in the room, mind exit
Don’t wanna be what they selling
World is a stage, I’m rebelling
Everyone carbon copy, can’t face it
Wearing new faces, same basics
I’m a loner and I love that tension
Stage to myself, no guest list, entrance
[Verse 2]
Walk through the mall
Feel ghost, see clones
Same shoes, same pose
Same glow on their phones
I cut through the crowd
Like a solo on sax
Soft notes in my chest
Hard truth on the track
Beatbox in my chest
Heart kick, lungs snare (uh)
I rap to the void
‘Cause the void still cares
Soul in my bars
Little trap in my past
Got jazz in my veins
I bend time when I laugh
[Chorus]
I’m in a different realm, still present (still here)
Body in the room, mind exit
Don’t wanna be what they selling
World is a stage, I’m rebelling
Everyone carbon copy, can’t face it
Wearing new faces, same basics
I’m a loner and I love that tension
Stage to myself, no guest list, entrance
[Bridge]
I don’t wanna blend in
I don’t wanna fit
If the script feel fake
Then I’m flipping it (yeah)
Let ’em keep their lines
I’ll improvise my breath
One take, one life
Then I step, no regrets
[Chorus]
I’m in a different realm, still present
Body in the room, mind exit
Don’t wanna be what they selling
World is a stage, I’m rebelling
Everyone carbon copy, can’t face it
Wearing new faces, same basics
I’m a loner and I love that tension
Stage to myself, that’s my only direction
