[Chorus: Will Smith]
Back on my journey, I’m taking my chances
Searching and questioning, looking for answers
Hoping this medicine heal all the damage
My inner child keep throwing a tantrum

[Verse 1: Will Smith & Joyner Lucas]
Why does my ego keep holding me ransom?
Why does my fear control me at random?
Life can get ugly, but fu*k it, I’m handsome
I’m ’bout to face all this s*it I been running from
You might relate to the places I’m coming from

I been through trauma I thought I’d recover from
I got regrets, you heard about some of them
This is gon’ make my heart bang like a rubber drum
I will not sugarcoat this stuff with bubblegum
Going through troubles, I hate what the trouble done
I hate to be the thing that people suffer from (Ooh)

[Verse 2: Joyner Lucas]
You cannot replicate me, I’m a one-of-one
You are not one of them (Ayy)
Damn, I forgot and there won’t be another one
I’m always number one
After the rain, then I know that the sun’ll come
I see the life in the treetops
I am not God, but I know I’m a son of Him
You just a son of a biotch
I know exactly just what they been doing
They counted me out, but your numbers ain’t showing
I know where I’ve been, I know where I’m going
If you wanna boat, then you better keep rowing
‘Cause I’m so way up, I might get me a Boeing
Flying with angels, they sent me an omen
The devil tried get me, the forces are with me
Yo’, Jesus, come lift me ’cause this is my moment and woo

[Chorus: Will Smith & Joyner Lucas]
Back on my journey, I’m taking my chances
Searching and questioning, looking for answers
Hoping this medicine heal all the damage
My inner child keep throwing a tantrum
Ayy, I took my traumas and made it a anthem, ayy, mm

[Verse 3: Will Smith & Joyner Lucas]
I done came too far to hand it over
I’ma keep my head up like a man supposed to (Grr)
I done took my punches, they was standing over (Brr)
Devil want my soul, I couldn’t hand it over (Grr)
I ain’t picture perfect, think the camera’s broken
Had to shut the door, they couldn’t slam it on ’em (Grr)
How you sleeping on me when I am a sofa?
Tryna trample on me, you get tramped over (Brr)
Joker’s thinking sweet, this ain’t no damn mimosa
This a aerosol inside a Arizona
This the Barry Bonds mixed with Sammy Sosa
This a loose screw inside a damaged motor, yeah
This a graduation with no damn diploma
This is aggregation, this is validation (Brr)
I got open wounds, ain’t no grass to trace in
This a bigger world of my imagination
This is me, woo

[Verse 4: Joyner Lucas & Will Smith]
Martin Luther had a dream (Dream)
Joyner Lucas had a vision I became everything I had to be (Woo)
I’ve been living like there’s no limits and I learned the game from Master P (P)
I’m staring at my reflection wondering why it isn’t staring back at me (Why?)
What it’s gon’ be?
Oh, y’all forgot I ain’t new with the pen
First hip-hop Grammy, I do it again (Woo)
I’m doing me, I ain’t doing no trends
Finding myself with the music again
Difference is I don’t need music to win
Soon as I dropped and I’m booming again (Boom)
Back to the crown, it’s the mood that I’m in
Promise ain’t nobody truer than him
Will

[Chorus: Will Smith & Joyner Lucas]
Back on my journey, I’m taking my chances
Searching and questioning, looking for answers
Hoping this medicine heal all the damage
My inner child keep throwing a tantrum (Yeah, yeah)
Ayy, I took my traumas and made it a anthem, ayy, mm
Woo
