Pitr Patr ft. Substantial & May Leitz Lyrics

Pondering my worth, while I'm wondering the earth

Watch my back 'cause it feels like a target on my shirt

Hard fact, far from clean 'cause we all are from the dirt

Not everyone is manifesting art out of their hurt

Hard not to burst under pressure and lose your cool

Scars on your mental and flesh 'cause the world is cruel

Bars between you and your blessings blocking your jewels

Trying to carve out your own slice of heaven without a tool's

A hell of a job, and what I've seen got me questioning God

Is it all just a facade, my reflection is odd

I don't recognize myself when looking in the mirror

Miss the hunger that I had back when I was a beginner

Trying to be a pillar of strength and the bigger man

But we're natural-born sinners all born with blood on our hands

But all we need is love and a plan and the will to get it

Too scared to bet on ourselves and we're holding the winning ticket

Listen

Pitter-patter of steps up life's ladder

A far from simple matter of will and skill to manage the stress

When life's sadder and so-called friends scatter

We question what matters for real and deal the best that we can

Understand?

And we still might fail though we planned

Even though I fell, still I stand

At the crossroads, wheel in my hands and it's my turn

To make the best or worst of my circumstance

Ain't no dress rehearsals on this stage when it's time to dance

Cans over can'ts, bet on me and advance

But I heard God laughs when a man's making plans

Damn, tell me what's the point if it's truly out my hands

I ain't buying what they selling. I guess I'm gon' take a chance

Do your prayers go unanswered if they're really demands

Where my pain like a lanyard, walk a mile in my vans

See what it's like to be in this life before you judge it

A deviant fight with media hype, you gotta love it!

A hard journey like meteorites waiting to plummet

They watch as it speeds through the night over the trumpet

It's just the pitter-patter of steps up life's ladder.

A far from simple matter of will and skill to manage the stress.

When life's sadder and so-called friends scatter

We question what matters for real and deal the best that we can.

Understand?

And we still might fail though we planned

Even though I fell, still I stand

At the crossroads, wheel in my hands and it's my turn

All that is lost

For once, I am just trapped in a box

Looking for more when none is to come

Broken segments of the world scattered across our land are nothing more than you

Or anyone you know

For I am said god

Now a broken imperfection of what I once was to be

Is now all you can see

But I choose differently

To only see straight

Fighting my inner demons trying to pass my outer limits

Trying to take it higher without relying on any gimmicks

Shine like the magic hour in just a couple of minutes

And hope these lyrics make an impression before I'm finished

To some it's a blinding light to others it is a vision

But we don't see eye to eye, which often leads to division

Looking at the same picture but yet we see something different

I use my mind to see clearer, my heart… help me to listen

But I still ain't figure it all out, I'm all doubt

Sick of putting in this work, I'm about to just call out

But I'm called out by people who listen but rarely call me

Eyewitnesses who I never seen but clearly saw me expand

I'll be damned

I was mad I failed though I planned

Where I am now, ain't where I began

Even though I fell, still I stand and it's my turn

It's just the pitter-patter of steps up life's ladder

A far from simple matter of will and skill to manage the stress

When life's sadder and so-called friends scatter

We question what matters for real and deal the best that we can

Understand?

And we still might fail though we planned

Even though I fell, still I stand

At the crossroads, wheel in my hands and it's my turn
