I Fell Asleep On The Couch, I Was Watching TV
Then I Woke Up In My Bed, Like "how The Hell I Get Here?"
I Got My First Day Of School Pretty Soon, And I′m Yawning, But Let's Get ItFelt Like That′s The Moment That Would Change My Life Forever
In A Way I Was Right, But I Never Understood
All The Ways I Would Write, It All Depends On My Mood
It's Either: Fly Guy Etiquette, Or All This Introspective Spit
Welcome To My Life, Well - Just This Portion That You're Getting Quick

Back When The Theme Song To The News, Was Our Gateway To The Globe
The Streets I Would Roam, Taught Me All I Need To Know
Before I Wanted To Lead A Life With My Entourage, Like Ari Gold
When The Vision Was An Interview On TRL
Before The Magic Of Christmas Time And Easter Fell
Before I Realised We Actually Might Just Be In Hell
When We Were Living Without Feeling The Need To Tell
I Was Scraping My Knees, Building Go-karts With The Team
Finding Bamboo By The Stream, Made Kites We Flew In The Street
Racing Scooters And That, Before The Moving Of Sacks
You Couldn′t Ruin The Vast, Lust For Life That We Had
I′m So Far From Being Hector (Pieterson) In That Picture
So Far From The Confusion And The Stresses Of Living
Before Innocence Left Me, Before My Conscience Got Darker
Every Moment Was A Wonder, When

I Fell Asleep On The Couch, I'm Just Tired From Sport
I′m Gon' Be The Greatest All-rounder School Ever Saw
I′m Gon' Win Me Awards, I′m Gon' Thrive With The Books Too
I'm Gon′ Be The One That All The Other Kids Look Too
But Girl Went From "Cooties!" To Cuties, With Booby And Ass
All The Features We Made Fun Of, I Now Wanted To Grab
But Politely, So I Penned Them Letters With Ink
Welcome To My Life, Well Just This Portion That You′re Getting Quick

Keep Them Awards Yo, I Need Me Some Clean Sneaks
Spraying Cologne In Edgars Before I Chick Meet
I'm Already 20 Minutes Late For The Movie
Mom Told Me: "chores Come First, No Excuses"
Only 20 Minutes Though, She Probably Just Sat
I Pulled Up, And Seen Some Brother With His Arm ′round Her Neck
Now I Know It's Juvenile, But It Hurt Like A Bitch
But You Live And You Learn, Fall In Love And Get Burned
Find Ways To Spend Time, You′ll Reach A Point Where You Find
The Pure Beauty And Freedom You're Searching For In This Life
But Not Many Hold On, Others′ Focus Is Knowledge
Pro-sports, Entertainment, Art Or You Hit Each College
Or, Push On The Low, Or Do A Few Of Those
Then Finally You'll Realise, School Is A Funeral For Creatives
But It's A Necessary Tool
To Better Life, But I Realised The Cost Is Cruel

On The Couch, As I Got Home From The Club
Biggie Had A Castle Lite, And I Was Drinking Like A Bum
But He Got Me Home Safe, Now I′m Talking To The Moon
Thinking ′bout The Booty And The Tunes, And What I'm Meant To Do
I Think This Fast Life Gripped Me, Last Night Hit Me
Bottles At The Table Make The Shawty′s Come Quickly
Don't Overthink It, They′re Just Getting A Drink
Welcome To My Life, Well Just This Portion That You're Getting Quick

Everything Is Different But It Feels The Same
I Let It All Flow Out, Like I Hit A Vein
Jody, You′re All Grown Up, What Are You Really Saying?
What Are You Doing As The Sun Rotates The Window Pane?
Before You're Just Another Memory A Few Folk Have
Before You Reach A Slump, Wishing You Could Go Back
Before Losing Desire, To See Another Moon Glow
You've Got To Find Something They Remember At Your Funeral
The Tricky Part′s Balancing Forcing And Fate
I Came Across These Folk Before, But The Course We Would Take
Was Out Of Hands, That′s Where It All Came Together
Same Visions Of Changing The Face Of Hip-Hop Forever
In This Place That We're From, It′s Clear We'll Be Remembered
So We Started To Hustle, Pushing This Music However
I Swear That Every Door Closed, We′ve Been Knocking It Down
We'll Never Not Be Around, ′cause We're Gon' Live Through These Sounds

On The Couch, After Performing My Best
Rapping Though Some Shitty Mic′, Pouring It All Out My Chest
I Learnt That People Want Bass, Man They Just Wanna Dance
Ain′t Got No Time For Them Lyrics That You Be Bleeding Out The Pen
But We Got Some Today, And If You've Made It This Far
And I Mean In Your Life, I Don′t Mean With This Song
Advice: Don't Overthink It, Just Do What You Love
Welcome To My Life, Well Just The Portion That You Get In These Bars
