Oddisee - A List of Withouts

One time for setbacks, one time for progress
A picture for the matrix so fall in love with the process
Not enough sweeping, way too many prospects
So always feeling fatigue, but I had yet to meet the mindset
I'm just bout the realest of things, ain't that the logic?
Lie awake with a dream and then fall asleep with a concept
I hear a lot of chat about what's in lean on a daily
But when did a discussion come pay me, never
This the menace behind the words I do whatever it takes
I'm not so proud to eat the scraping off plates
So you know sir, you missing out what this about
Have the whole dust, when you can eat the tips on your shoulder
Know what? That ain't ??? you could learn but on the way you could earn
Walk through the fixes and the clinches never make a u turn
And if you do, you ain't ready for what anything comes
Now with your soul, on along with your loss, step forth

He ain't got the skills for this
Nah, he ain't got the build for this
Nah, he ain't got the real for this
He ain't got the chill for this
Nah, he ain't got the smarts for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
He ain't got the ears for this
Nah, he ain't got the tears for this
Nah, he ain't got the feels for this
He ain't got the years for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
Turn it up

When do I now have a lot of my mind
Contemplating what to do with my time
I'm pursuing a grind that runs faster than my passion and I
Try to match it with a habit to shine
Money coming and going, predict a patter what I'm tryina define
Already knowing it's a tragic decline
Before the show in, show up what I, I know what
Instead of why, the answer ain't in the sky, don't expect a reply
I'm just expecting decline, who's scared to death that
It's the best that, I'ma get before god come and collect his breath back
So I don't sweat that, I got a lot of blessings at stake
And now I hate to take them all in the vain
Like I was shooting up place
I'm in a trap, you might know what is stakes
So ??? joyce and mind calling tapes
Y'all don't hear me, why?

He ain't got the skills for this
Nah, he ain't got the build for this
Nah, he ain't got the real for this
He ain't got the chill for this
Nah, he ain't got the smarts for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
He ain't got the ears for this
Nah, he ain't got the tears for this
Nah, he ain't got the feels for this
He ain't got the years for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
Turn it up

My mother worked the register all the way through her pregnancy
Less than a week from getting me
She was working the bed of me
Pops selling coke I don't lay any pocket in the 70's
He hustled for the struggle to stop the troubles ahead of me
Just when he had the diner off a new hanger f
Didn't last, economics set the market to crash
When I'm back home we always make a point to go past
To see the spot as a reminder, I had to go to go back
This the world that I done heard
Further into the murder and
Weaking me good to nervous is
Look at me I'm impervious
Take your best shot and make sure that I'm done
'Cause if I'm not I come back to take the life in your lungs
I fight the good fight the merits of my actions is slow
Overnight definitely worth it to grow
This a nerve for the modest of folks
Fake artists what you talk is the blow
Y'all implode we ain't guard your soul, yeah!

He ain't got the skills for this
Nah, he ain't got the build for this
Nah, he ain't got the real for this
He ain't got the chill for this
Nah, he ain't got the smarts for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
He ain't got the ears for this
Nah, he ain't got the tears for this
Nah, he ain't got the feels for this
He ain't got the years for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
Nah, he ain't got the heart for this
Turn it up
