I just came to do my thing
I only stepped out to handle my business
I just came to do my thing
I don't need em crowds all standin to witness
I just came to do my thing
You can stay or can go and cancel subscriptions
I just came to do my thing
No Plan A just candles that I hold like incense

Always tried to find the light
Fast-forward thought time
Ain't scared of some smoke cah I make it myself
In awe, watch it rise, spiral and unwind
Then air out my home- finna sage it as well
Explorin my Bible, Lord is my guide
Just cleared out my dome- know it takes time to heal
I thought I could wipe it all like some grime
Interfere and provoke- no I prayed for a shield
I prayed for protection
I pray to reveal any intent that's ill-
Behind what I be prayin for then I correct it
I'm takin my pills
And fruit and vegetable concoctions
Meditatin a lil to face what I feel
My mind's unlike those made before
Used to get lost in it

I just came to do my thing
I only stepped out to handle my business
I just came to do my thing
I don't need em crowds all standin to witness
I just came to do my thing
You can stay or can go and cancel subscriptions
I just came to do my thing
No Plan A just candles that I hold like incense

Still
Vigil
I signalled
For a quick call
They picked up at once
Askin me what was up
Told em I was feelin stuck
So scared of causin damage to-
-wards myself mentally I kept o-
-penin wounds by viewin those episodes-
I'd told myself I'd lock away but visited-
-my past when I spotted similarities in-
-my present, I feel like the moon in the presence-
Of those that I cherish, my smile:
The only part lit like the crescent
Don't even get me started on my orbit
It's been 5 years, still correctin my course-
Tickin off my checklist and investin my effort
Every time I trip- tell myself keep it steppin
Then step in my kitchen hit switches, heat coils
Might as well squeeze some lemon, ginger, honey; boil

I only stepped out to handle my business,
I don't need em crowds all standin to witness,
You can stay or can go and cancel subscriptions,
No Plan A just candles that I hold like incense
