[Part I: SPOTLIGHT]
[Verse 1: Dominic Fike]
I hear a voice in the vent
Through which a poison was sent
As she was fixing my teeth
I see the back of my head
See how the homeless are bent
From the fent'
Sometimes I feel like a bug
Motion detect
Not all the boys in the hood
Grow up to be men
Some grow up to be insect
And drain the blood out my neck
[Refrain: Dominic Fike]
Oh, oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
[Verse 2: Dominic Fike]
Look through the cameras, the kids
Dragged into the mist
I tried to grab 'em, my grip
Slipping through my mitts
Whatever happens, up next
I will do my best, best

[Part II: INNER CHILD]
[Intro: Dominic Fike & Tay-K]
Yo, Tay, you thеre?
Yeah, I'm chill, I'm right herе
Yo, what's up, G, how you doing?
I'm still here, bro, how you doing?
Man, I'm doing straight, I'm great
Good, good to hear, man
Now, we're just out here in Texas
John's been telling me y'all were working on something that sounds really special
Yeah, hell yeah, bro, we been locked in, bruh, I just, um (Shit)
I hope you locked in out there too, you know what I'm sayin'
This thing is it's fire, bro, you know what I'm sayin'
Stay free, stay tapped in with your inner child, bro (Yessir)
I love everything you doing, bro, that shit hard, bro
Man, I appreciate that, it means a lot, brother, thank you
You know, we're making an album right now and it's the last day of the album (Uh-huh)
And we just wanted people like getting shit off their chest
Okay, bet, so you don't have no type of specific lane?
Any like, even if it's a wide range (Yeah), like, you don't got—?
Well, you know I'm quitting, right, I'm tryna quit smoking
That's kinda the thing about this album, so
And spiritually it's been like a journey, obviously 'cause you kind of realize you need something
It's kind of the last thing I'm cutting out as an addiction
And it's like, I'm at this point where I realize, "Damn, I kinda need something"
Like I'm a, I need a vice
Like I'm, you know
And we been moving throughout the world
I just had a son, we been touring a lot
I'm feeling disconnected from my home, um
And I'm growing up at the same time
And so it's just, I don't know, from being thirty to culmination of all these things
Being thirty like
I don't know where you're at with life right now
But I'd be curious to hear it, whatever, you know, just any sentiment that comes to the mind I think
If you just wanna spit whatever on your heart (Okay)
And if nothing comes through, that's alright too
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, overstood, brother, this is it
That's kind of what I needed right there, it's good
Yo, what's good, Dominic bro?
It's Tay-K reporting live from the belly of the beast, you feel me?
I thought about what we talked about earlier and I just wanted to kind of like, feel you, bro
No matter what, what I would say is just stay connected to like your inner child, bro
Like, when I be going through all these dark times I be going through, you know I'm saying like
I try to hold on to that youthful connection in life
Everything's a learning experience
Everything is wonderful, everything is amazing
Like, I try to see the beauty in every experience
I ain't gon' lie, bro, my mom went through a lot, bro, I ain't gon' lie, like
What I love about her is that like
What everybody kinda love about her
'Cause you know like every— like every— all my inner circle, they all know what my mama went through
But like, bro, she still got like the glow to just light up the whole entire room
Like being done goin' through all that crazy-ass shit
Time after time, drug addiction, abuse, everything
And she still like held on to her glow, bro
I love my mom to death
