Through ThE motions [​*​]

from Artificial Nature [Deluxe] by KRAFTY

lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, going through
Yeah, yeah, yeah, going through 'em, through 'em
Yeah, going through them bitches
Going through the motions

[Chorus]
I've been going through the motions
And emotions

[Verse 1]
Lately, lately, lately I ain't feeling right
Lowkey surprised that I'm still alive
Somewhere inside I found the strength
But this learning curve's driving me right, right round the bend
And all I wanna do is be myself
But they're judging and acting like I need some help
Like they know what's best
So profesh
So suppressed are the words that I won't confess
Took too many steps and still no further ahead
They'd like it more if I was serving 'em dead
The learning curve is a thread
And it turns and it bends
Weren't for friends swerving I wouldn't have permanent stress
I'm so done I feel so numb
Waiting on a win that won't come
They're playing games but it's no fun
Got tobacco toxins in both lungs
But when I'm down I smoke up 'cause

[Chorus]
I've been going through the motions
And emotions
I've been going through the motions
And emotions

[Verse 2]
Looking forward to when the day ends
Pray that you make it make sense
Try'na be real with fake friends
It's bait and they ain't even on the same wavelength
Feeling like a king but I don't need my throne
Family's royal and we don't leave our own
And that's just what they said
Do it for the blood and off with their heads
If life's a gamble then you better gimme the die
I'm feeling like everybody's just living a lie
You could shoot your shot but won't win it
Only a couple minutes
Not long 'til we're finished
And if you don't mind
I'll take this next left just to be alright
I'm so done with you
So done with me and everybody because

[Chorus]
I've been going through the motions
And emotions
I've been going through the motions
And emotions

[Verse 3]
Dealing with demons in a stressful crisis
I don't bless the mic man, I exercise it
I say you're sleeping on me
You say you're try'na rest your eyelids
My next advice is get a vice quick
Or be left to struggle in doubt
I do this for my loved ones with nothing about
Thanks to my little brother for loving the sound
Says he feels my reign when I'm chucking it down
Square peg, round hole but I ain't fucking around
Raising eyebrows while you bitches are plucking 'em out
My life's become a routine
So many years since I was a rude teen
If I can share some words of advice
Don't let 'em get away with hurting you twice
Only person you really spend life with is you
I know because

[Chorus]
I've been going through the motions
And emotions
I've been going through the motions
And emotions
