Dribblin' - Marlon Craft

Trepidation escalatin' like a Cadillac

Calendar startin' to look like an hourglass

Chasin' ass, tryna give myself the shallow pass

Raftin' murky moral waters it’s hard to paddle back

Oh no, no

Boy I got the range wit it, but it’s hard when I’m shootin' from the same

distance

Look at all the shit I get to be, there’s a lot ridin' on me like Porzingis'

knee

And it’s hard to look outside, it all seem like chaos now, now, now

Love my pride but that shit only slow me down, down, down

In the space where the real can’t be defined and I wonder what I’m down here to

find

While the loud lead the blind

I’m devoutly inclined to just pass me some time

I been bouncin' back and forth

Got the world all in my hands

Said the ball is in my court

I don’t think they understand

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

Dribblin', dribblin' in the same old place and I been here a minute

And all the same old faces back and forth be like Wimbledon

The reflections of my reflection leave me feelin' simple

It’s on me baby, I’m all me, baby

My chest been tight but I believe I’mma breathe lately

Let’s find time to definitely all of these maybes

Time for me to step to Me before me play Me

I been tryna talk to Love

She ain’t picked up in a minute now, is it how I’m livin'?

I’m more than what I want

Once I let it go, I’mma get it

I’m worth more than the pendant

This funhouse isn’t fun

Mirror been showin' us the wrong thing for a while

Lookin ‘round at these adults with all the symptoms of childs

Shit and all of their convictions be as thin as their smiles

So I think it’s time to show up, hold up

I was froze, now I’m liquid

I’mma flow through the door til' the floor lookin' drenched

And I think that I finally get it now, I ain’t gonna sit it out

Shooters shootin', I can’t only dribble now

And I can’t ever tell one single fib or doubt in anything I scribble down

I been livin' rental style, think it’s time to own me

Fuck anybody that told me the shit I won’t be

Cause they just know I’m one step away from what I’m gon' see

I been bouncin' back and forth

Got the world all in my hands

Said the ball is in my court

I don’t think they understand

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

(Boy, shoot your shot!)

I been dribblin', dribblin'

I been dribblin', dribblin'

And I got lots to be grateful for, even the bad

They gon' try to lock me in boxes, I’m free and I’m mad

I’mma leave ‘em locked in my body, these demons I have

They ain’t gonna stop me from shootin'

Enemies close and these drums is so pure

Feel the pain when they roll but they ain’t acoustic as my soul

I’m a real one, I know

I’mma deal with my woes, I’mma peel through the fear

I’mma leave it exposed, oh

Bounce back and forth got the world in my hands

Said the ball’s in my court, don’t think they understand

I been dribblin' dribblin', dribblin', dribblin', dribblin', dribblin'

Bounce back and forth, world in my hands

Ball’s in my court, don’t think they understand, no

I been dribblin' dribblin', dribblin', dribblin'
