If you don’t know who I am. I’m Atlas of the world [03:35:41] for the sake of [03:35:43] time [03:35:44] We got ourselves into a word game. We got to get ourselves out of a word game [03:35:49] Lauren hit on the body be in the mind. That’s very true. We live in a dual world though [03:35:54] So we can’t discredit the two we’ve given into it. We got to get ourselves out, right? [03:35:59] With that being said remember that addition and addiction come from the same root word [03:36:04] we think that we need to add to ourselves in order to become something when really we just have to subtract a thought boom and [03:36:12] We are free with that being said again. I go by Atlas of the world [03:36:16] There’s gonna be stickers on the back for you guys to grab when you leave. It’ll take you to my link tree [03:36:20] That’ll take it all my music my website.

This is all I thought about when I was in the hood, but it ain’t bringing me fulfillment like I thought it would [03:37:19] Realized I need healing but I keep rolling these words overthinking cuz I feel misunderstood a little chunk of time [03:37:25] My life’s been a potential a lot be on my mind [03:37:29] I barely use a pencil flipping through some rhymes that I wrote trying to find my flow [03:37:34] I’ll be tripping once you’re gone.
