something to do
Lyrics
My old man just tryna understand my head
A tough hand, the kid you fed will end up dead
I rush in to avoid all conversation
He must've been around 'cause he came and said
"Boy to tell you the truth
You need something to do
To burn your troubles away."
He's like "I don't care what you do
If you're not under my roof,
Then I just want you okay."
Well okay…
Something to do I need more
Picking up all of the pieces of myself
I cut up and threw on the floor
Verse after verse, will this shit ever work?
Will this music shit land me on tour?
Which one of these label gon' finally sign me?
Will I ever win an award?
Will the streaming shit get me a Porsche?
Don't even like Porsches just making a point
That I feel like I need something to reassure me
That I'm making the choices and paving the path in life
That I was meant to explore
See, I been destined for greatness
But the time it's taking to manifest running it's course
I had to travel for miles and it's just me and Myles
If it's one thing I know, I need more
"Boy to tell you the truth
You need something to do
To burn your troubles away."
(To burn your troubles away)
He's like "I don't care what you do
If you're not under my roof,
Then I just want you okay."
( I just want you okay)
Well okay
You need something to do to burn your troubles away
Well Imma tell you okay
If you're not under my roof then I just want you okay
Well okay…
Well okay…
My old man just tryna understand my head
A tough hand, the kid you fed will end up dead
I rush in to avoid all conversation
He must've been around 'cause he came and said
"Boy to tell you the truth
You need something to do
To burn your troubles away."
He's like "I don't care what you do
If you're not under my roof,
Then I just want you okay."
Well okay…
Something to do I need more
Picking up all of the pieces of myself
I cut up and threw on the floor
Verse after verse, will this shit ever work?
Will this music shit land me on tour?
Which one of these label gon' finally sign me?
Will I ever win an award?
Will the streaming shit get me a Porsche?
Don't even like Porsches just making a point
That I feel like I need something to reassure me
That I'm making the choices and paving the path in life
That I was meant to explore
See, I been destined for greatness
But the time it's taking to manifest running it's course
I had to travel for miles and it's just me and Myles
If it's one thing I know, I need more
"Boy to tell you the truth

(To burn your troubles away)
He's like "I don't care what you do
If you're not under my roof,
Then I just want you okay."
( I just want you okay)
Well okay
You need something to do to burn your troubles away
Well Imma tell you okay
If you're not under my roof then I just want you okay
Well okay…
Well okay…
