Ace - Lucid Dreams Lyrics

Locked pocket i don't do this for no acknowledgment
I lost my mind in need desperate need of reconnaissance
So much for being friendly I'm just too far gone
I'm focused on the hustle put some green in my palm
Not trynna make friends I'm trynna make business
I say it with my chest ya boy never been timid
Listen i don't play games don't do gimmicks
If you step in my frame I'll shatter your whole image
Hear dis i make you sure they rewind it
About a hundred times til they get every line
They been trying been trying block my shine
But I do this without trying
I'm the final destination the final mountain to climb
I'm on a different level been pulling strings like Gepetto
The way that I play with these lines I've gone mental
So I understandably he gets act wild
They all got they hands up like I just stuck up the crowd

So I just stay
Doing my thing
Til everybody know my name
I don't sleep I been wide awake
Cause I been dealing with these lucid dreams
I was taught it was swim or sink
So you could see I'mma fight til the grave
I don't sleep I been wide awake
Cause I been dealing with these lucid dreams

So let's rewind it and decipher these mean lines
That ace keep writing yet never seems satisfied
It's like i'm inclined to always step to the mic
And hand deliver fire boy I'm just that nice
I could once twice or even three times
Remember back when they ain't believe in these rhymes
That was only fuel to the fire keeping me in drive
Now Every time I step to a beat it's euthanized
Hold on put her down slow
I'm a real vivid artist that's Vincent van Gogh
My only real goal is thoroughly be known
With a hostile takeover the king has been overthrown
And for those who don't know yet address me as ace
The microphone murderer sucker nothing is safe
I'm an apex predator just doing my thing
I don't expect you to understand every picture I paint

So I just stay
Doing my thing
Til everybody know my name
I don't sleep I been wide awake
Cause I been dealing with these lucid dreams
I was taught it was swim or sink
So you could see I'mma fight til the grave
I don't sleep I been wide awake
Cause I been dealing with these lucid dreams
