Expectations - K.A.A.N.

Things don’t always go the way you want, it’s alright, it’s alright

You’ll fall down a million times but just keep on tryin', keep on tryin'

Just figured I’d snap, these echelon artisanal raps

I guess it’s safe to say the villain is back

I had to dip in my bag, put up the cash 'cause niggas wouldn’t go half

Still independent 'cause I did all the math

As I subtract from the pack, the journey I’m on, yeah it’s all for the path

The scenic route, the round-a-bouts, I pray to God I don’t crash

Could lose it as quick as I got it, thankful for what I have

I wanted more than what I saw, man my vision is brash

Plastic bag past, throw that shit in the trash

Breaking the mold and the ceiling, nigga’s cracking the glass

Making the most of what I got, my motive’s more than just cash

All I can do is give it all that I have, well in fact it’s just that

It’s safe to say this shit is more than just tougher

Throw in the towel, call it quits, feel like I might give up

Rejection’s all they handing out, my skin is not that thick

In solitude, I just feel like shit

Nigga I must admit, I’m tryna come up with a plan of action

What do you do when nothing’s working, you can’t make it happen

Progression’s stagnant, taking shots, it’s like I’m barely standing

All this pressure I can barely manage, I can’t understand it

Things don’t always go the way you want, it’s alright, it’s alright

You’ll fall down a million times but just keep on tryin', keep on tryin'

I can’t keep dealing with these setbacks, breaking down to rebuild

I’m playing the field, playing my role, praying that these wounds heal

This shit can make you cold inside, love don’t live here

They tell me keep my head held high, you gon' get there, but I feel

It’s safe to say this shit is more than just tougher

Throw in the towel, call it quits, feel like I might give up

Rejection’s all they handing out, my skin is not that thick

In solitude, I just feel like shit

Nigga I must admit, I’m tryna come up with a plan of action

What do you do when nothing’s working, you can’t make it happen

Progression’s stagnant, taking shots, it’s like I’m barely standing

All this pressure I can barely manage, I can’t understand it
