Miles Canady - ACHILLES' HEEL Lyrics

First Odd Future break up, now every day I'm waking
I see somebody switch their moral code for validation
The pressure that it's building on my heart's enough to cave in
So I play Hov for everything I'm having trouble saying
Three hours of sleep, been in a hole since yesterday
Boxing with my demons, my sanity slowly slips away
Heard someone I know switched, I wonder where his head went
I feel bankrupt as him, cause I been seeing red since
Now I'm feeling selfish, it's a wall that I'm building
Jericho, can't let it go, I try to call in for healing
But a new wound opens every other week
Every turn, I get a buck fifty for every other cheek
Boundaries turned walls, they really grew from the start and
Now it's finna cost me more than New York apartments
I'm hurting, but to these effects, you clueless
So you get half a bar: et tu, Brutus?

Everybody wanna know what my Achilles' heel is
Everybody wanna know what my Achilles' heel is
Everybody wanna know what my Achilles' heel is
Love, I don't get enough of it

I, for the longest, showed love to you, looked up to you
In the shadows doing your dirt, thought you were subtle too
The fleece clothes you wore in my presence just made me comfortable
Now Lune ready to check you, it's funny, wolves ain't above the Moon
And to think I felt like that nigga because I knew you
Until I found this new you with lack of morals and loose screws
Saw it coming, but felt played to be honest
Note to self - solid niggas never claim that they solid
I mean, you had qualities of what I tried to be
Now everything you're doing gets no airtime with me
You committed the sin of wrath, jack ideas, basically rob my friends
It makes sense, aw man, you Jackie Robinson
I could abandon everyone that's a fan of me
Succumb to the vanity, and just say fuck what I plan to be
Just like you, I thought that you and I would be top two
Now every day I wake up, I thank God that I'm not you

Everybody wanna know what my Achilles' heel is
Everybody wanna know what my Achilles' heel is
Everybody wanna know what my Achilles' heel is
Love, I don't get enough of it

I was born in imprisonment
I was born into fear
Trying to look forward in life
But I'm caught in the rear view mirror
Watching the past play in front of me
And it's getting real clear
That actions that happened back then
Still keep me in tears
But I need to heal here
My heel's like Achilles'
I'll show you the real me
I don't need a hug, I need you to feel me
Understand me and deal me in like casino
Why do you think I vibe with songs by C Gambino?
I'm just an artists surviving from the pain of her teens, so
Excuse me if I show the scars on my face, Al Pacino
I tend to hide most of it behind the scenes though
But I'm tired of handing out hints to be seen, so
I use my voice to speak my soul
And I use my rhymes to form a flow, so
If you don't know me, well, now you know
