Teej XLV - Prodigal Son (feat. RatchKevyn & a Nuisance.) Lyrics

Allow me to reintroduce myself
My name is Teej
I'm from that 6070 (Whoa)
Barely went out. Glued eyes to the TV show
But as I grew up, I grew curious
They told me, "Take A Hit," and shit, I did. I was less serious
Shit had me acting all delirious
Out here talking with an accent, like my name's Demetrius. (Yo, what's up, Blood?)
I got lost in the sauce
Though truth be told, that was because I was generally lost
My heart covered in frost
A souvenir after learning about love and it's cost
I'm the Prodigal Son
Tired of feeling so numb
Yeah, I speak to the moon
Know I don't shine like the sun

Yeah, it took a lot of work to define myself
And I don't need nobody, I define myself
I don't know much, but I know myself
And I don't need approval, know I proved myself
Yeah, it took a lot of work, but I found myself
And I don't need nobody, I define myself
I don't know much, but I know myself
And I don't need approval, know I proved myself

Niggas out here watching Samurai Jack
As a matter of fact
I'm writing shit on a pad
Still keeping intact?
Yeah, especially from trouble coming of late
All we needa do is get to heaven's gates?
Was told that shit while people outchea watching Netflix
Reaping their fix. My fix being music
Always use it, nothing makes me happier
Earphone complaints, hearing raps people never heard
Free as a bird
Rub their faces all in the dirt
Oh shit, they hurt?
Been through more, ain't shit on your shirt
Trip on everything
Make the whole world your high coat
Song puts you in another world
Astroworld - planet - home - quote
First track featuring Teej and A NUISANCE
Gxldie tripping at the back
Round about the day where everybody's high
Matter of fact, let me smoke while I'm at that

Forgive me, forgive me
F*ck a confession, my so-called sins I'll just take with me
I'm loving this feeling I'm feeling
I cannot defeat this feeling
Tearing, your eyes. What are you fearing?
Death, the next step? Or the other, thereafter?
Just tell me I'm dreaming
How could you lie to me? Did I mislead you?
You chose to part ways but I see you're still happy, too
Can't escape me, escape me. Why are you running? Running?
I am walking away from you. I do not know you anymore
Cannot love you anymore. Tried to come back
To see that regret followed me back
Snap!
Back down to Earth I come
Seeing that marriage would've been dumb
Until death do us apart, "We'll never be apart"
Now just look where we are

Yeah, it took a lot of work to define myself
And I don't need nobody, I define myself
I don't know much, but I know myself
And I don't need approval, know I proved myself
Yeah, it took a lot of work, but I found myself
And I don't need nobody, I define myself
I don't know much, but I know myself
And I don't need approval, know I proved myself
