Baggage by Sk, the Novelist Lyrics
[Intro}
Yo
Yeah
I wanted- I wanted to make something that you feel
You feel me?
So feel this:
[Chorus]
Said I gave up all my things
All my baggage all my things
I no longer carry with me all the fears what you might think
And I traded them for time
I deposit all my time
Into accounts that accrue into true peace inside my mind
[Verse 1: Sk]
Ayo, I took a step back from familiarity
Gathered it in my hand and gave it away like charity
It was too much routine stuff, and not enough scary things
What, I'm supposed to live comfortably until they bury me?
Wooo
My heart race
Stuck between a rock and a hard place
I brought string instruments to a Hip-Hop gig
And literally put rock in a hard place
Then I put it back in my guitar case, it's all paced
We're reaching God level
Pushing back a couple spirits but we're not devils
I let it all air out like it was hot kettles
We can change the whole tone like wah pedals
I don't know where you base your shit at like it was all treble
Shit, your lies are at an all time high we call that false-etto
I guess that's just how your squad settle
Bad feed, but this is not metal
[Chorus]
[Verse 2: Thiago]
They say what you bring with you
Defines you as a person
And I don't want to be defined by hatred
They say what you leave behind
Will find you in the end
And when that time comes, I hope that I'm a changed man
They're saying a lot of things
But hearing is selective
I'm selecting to hear the snap of the handle
When I fail to lift my baggage
How bad you have it
How bad you've had it
You have wheels on your bag
I travel with the broken strap across my back
Duct tape can only hold so much
Love and fate can only know so much
Oh you think that you have grown so much
But everybody sees the birthday where the framework
Is the same as years prior, different brain to see higher
Same perspective though
Watching reruns, no new episodes
Looking back how far we've come to ever let it go
I've got grudges, scars, remembering the way they felt
Life spinning on this conveyor belt
I need to save myself
[Chorus x 2]
[Outro]
How you feel? How you feel? How you feel?
Yo
Yeah
I wanted- I wanted to make something that you feel
You feel me?
So feel this:
[Chorus]
Said I gave up all my things
All my baggage all my things
I no longer carry with me all the fears what you might think
And I traded them for time
I deposit all my time
Into accounts that accrue into true peace inside my mind
[Verse 1: Sk]

Gathered it in my hand and gave it away like charity
It was too much routine stuff, and not enough scary things
