Stranger (feat. Saba & Jarreau Vandal)

I feel like a stranger
Tryin' to face what's left of my own
And there is no later, too many changes
I'm tryna grow
I thought I knew all the colors and the hues
Thought I had it figured out
'Cause in my head it seemed so true
But I really don't
There's so much left untouched
Still figuring out what
But I'm closer than I was
Feels like I stopped running away
Once I recognized my own faith
In too deep, was stuck in this maze
That I don't know what to do, oh
I feel like a stranger
Tryin' to face what's left of my own
And there is no later, too many changes
I'm tryna grow
You feel like real life
Or my imagination of what real life should be
Is as clear as the sky could be
You the future, all I could see
So, who knew you would frighten me?
I don't pretend to have the answers like talkin' to Socrates
And I'm usually in your head, but you're growin apart from me
I think lately you getting farther and farther apart from me
And I know I'm a part of you, and once you are a part of me
A part of me think that I'm makin' excuses like "Pardon me"
For you or for the future, you foolish for tarnishin'
I'm torn apart thinkin' about independence autonomy
With my head up higher and higher, the ceilin' get hard to reach
Every three months you a new person, this feelin' is quarterly
Around here it get hard to stay grounded like carpentry
I lost me once, it got me feeling like I got an alter ego
Goin' 'til it's gone like one on one, it's all for keeps
A lot of different sides to this story, but they all of me
I feel like a stranger
Tryin' to face what's left of my own
And there is no later, too many changes
I'm tryna grow (I'm tryna grow)
