15 Black Shirts Lyrics

I was going through my laundry today and I noticed something

Noticed a pattern in my clothes

So you know naturally I started counting you know

And I realized I have twenty shirts, Fifteen of them are black

That's a metaphor that I'm never gonna change 'cause it's not what I'm heading for

They say I won't have no one anymore

And maybe there's the some truth to the statement

'Cause there ain't no room in this basement

Let's face it my metamorphosis opened many doors

But they all lead straight back to the pavement

Man ain't that amazing

I know I should change but it's too late

Too late to make a difference, too late to make a change

If I lose myself today was it worth the wait

Can't make the decision, too scared to make a change

If I choose I'm left astray that's the game we play

And my soul would catch the flame and fade away

I'm never gonna change

And that's not a good thing it's only severing connections

Convection occurring 'cause I'm too cold

My conviction hotter than addiction

And now friction normalizing fiction

The lies I've told have molded distrust and dug a hole

Restricting my jurisdiction and now I'm getting evicted

15 Black Shirts and ima' keep on wearing 'em, tearing 'em

'Cause maybe I like it

It's very unlikely I'll ever stop pairing them with my new shit

It's the blueprint for my own movement

Eventually it'll get cycled out of my psyche

Might be sooner or later but I'm in no rush to push it at light-speed

I thought I should change but it's too late

Too late to convince me that I really need a change

I won't lose myself today just to please a fake

Done wasting my energy trying to play this game

I'm choosing to stay in my own lane

And keeping the same pace stay out my way

I'm never gonna change, but maybe that's a good it's only severing deadweight

Getting my head straight letting my pen say all the things I've been swallowing

I'm gonna step way harder and get paid larger my main goal is to set sail farther

Clearing out leeches like barnacles so they only eating me up in articles

So I guess the moral of the story today is that

I used to think it was a bad thing having all these black shirts you know

Not having any diversity

But it's just who I am, and that's cool
