They ask me Why did it take so long to drop the Destn's Mind?
I say it took so long because see Dest'N had the find himself
You see identity is different when you don't know self I know I'm Dest'N but don't know about me without Myself
See when y'all knew me well when History of Dest'N just prevailed I was a cocky kid who thought he was Above all of his fellows
Conceited and I'd stick to all my ignorance like Donatello
I'd sting the feelings of my peers like bugs that's black and yellow
I'm still the same youngin' but this is a different hello
Sit back relax while I collapse into a mood that's mellow
I gotta vent, these was some rough years
I gotta vent, these was some rough years
I gotta vent, these was some rough years I spent my time indulging in women
Seeking for comfort in some people that can't help how I'm feeling
Looking for fixing in some people who ain't done with their healing
Looking for somebody to fill the spot that's currently missing
Say hey Mama, if I ain't never told you
Love is a feeling that's so strong I don't know how to show you
It's been some problems in our life But through the tears, pain, and the strife I know it's feeling my whole life That I will always owe you
Before I leave I dream that you meet all my friends
Apologies my brothers that have now upgraded from just kin
I gotta show your sons you ain't create within your stomach
But are now my brothers that I plan to never leave or end
Ma I swear these people helped me at my worst and when I sined
And the day all of y'all hug is gonna heal something within
I ain't tryna get sad but I just need them niggas call you mama
Cuz I swear that's what I do with all they mamas
So I want for them to do the same I need it
And through this pain I bleeded and busted veins and straining my tears in drained and my feelings, my mental Strained but I'm here
Even with fear I'm still moving through life I change up with needed my battle wounds are the reason to chase Their fame
Egregious is how I felt but I'm leading my school through pain
While not knowing myself still voicing that people Got That One Thing I'm a leader
But man I often get lost
Lost in the box in my mind that is hard as hell to defrost
If there's a price for my piece, I would pay no matter the cost
But now I found that my peace ain't a fancy car with exhaust
Ain't a Cullinan, with the stars
Ain't a woman thicker than Mars
Even though that shit would be hard
I learned my peace is all within and I don't gotta look far
Shit hit different, don't it?
Shit hit different, don't it?
I mean, that's where I've been at
I'm going through a lot of stuff, but at the end of the day I just had to find myself
Before I gave you all my mind
Even though my mind is chaotic in so many ways I had to show you who I am
And y'all just got a better version
When y'all wanted it, I didn't know myself
But now, I could really show y'all
What's in Destn's Mind
