In Security
Thank God I'm in security
Securing me
Keeping in all my hesitation and fear
My safe haven
From all my future successes
Holding back my progression from touching me
Surrounded by so many faces
Marked with distrustful eyes
And I can't tell the difference
Amazing soothsayers of words
Baiting their traps
To capture the naive
Using their backs for target practice
So my thoughts are spinning counter-clockwise
For all you wise-guys
Conspiracy theorin' the reasons
Why we stand on the same plane
But we ain't even
So imma stay in this fortress
And take no sides just
Stay silent and never care
Why I'm the only one standing there
So thank God I'm in security
Securing me
Keeping in all my hesitation and fear
Music to my ears
My safe haven
From all my future successes
Holding back my progression from touching me
I just want you to put trust in me
Take my advice
Realize I'm not being jealous
But I don't know how to reach you
This ain't plastic I'm wrapping to ya
But see through the silence
My dreams to be on the same team
And shoot down the stars together
But every time the ink dries,
You write another letter
So imma watch you from over here
In my fortress
Because it's easier to lead you from afar
On the same path
Why are we throwing stone faces?
And we can't laugh
About the old times
So I hesitate
Running back to an illusion
Finding comfort in the confusion
But thank God I'm in security
Securing me
Keeping in all my hesitation and fear
Music to my ears
My safe haven
From all my future successes
Holding back my progression from touching me
Falling for the things right in front of me
You always had my back
Led me to a heart attack
Shiftin' in my system
You saw the greatness in me
Said my words had power
To bring children from building edges
And inspire millions
Being my biggest fan
I still hesitate
To write down my own feelings
That's why I hate being in security
Keeping me from all of God's graces
Protecting me from my own destiny
Never reaching for success
Settling for a stagnant existence
I just wanna move past the masses
To the front to see
What's been holding me backwards
Back to the grind
I don't need insecurity
To put in its perspective
See, I got the recipe
So the next time I walk past
Your assistance I won't ask
So don't even mention me
Keep holding back.
