Nyck Caution
Yellow Tape Road
[Verse 1]
Yeah, you know it's automatic (Yeah)
Tell Trev leak the hard drive I'm ever caught in traffic
(I’m ever caught in traffic)
Don't let a label milk my name, just give my mom the cashes
A new era, same pro, and I want all the static
(I want all the static)
I been killing since 'em tours with Statik (Yeah)
Even before we in the basement and recorded magic (We did)
Who would've known they know my name in South Africa? (They do)
Fifteen-hour flights, I land and then perform these ballads (Okay)
Sparring sessions, but it’s never padded
Woke up in Wonderland once, I followed the white rabbit
I been running for miles, it's hard to keep my balance (Balance)
Papa Doc these other rappers if I'm ever challenged, baby (Yeah)
Battle-tested, but it's me who been my hardest foe
Confused with how I feel because it's hard to show
(Because it's hard to show)
Grateful for my past, but got so far to go (Got so far to go)
My heart been on my sleeve
You watch me bleed, I got the scars to show (The scars)
[Chorus]
And we still on this yellow tape road
(And we still on this yellow tape road)
Ayy
Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?
(Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?)
Ayy, and we—
And we still on this yellow tape road
(And we still on this yellow tape road)
Ayy
Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?
(Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?)
[Verse 2]
Some people change and, nah, I’m not surprised (Nah)
Wishful thoughts when you ignore the signs (Yeah)
You authentic with your circle but a fraud in mine
You know you crossed the line
Your notoriety was never notarized (Ayy)
But so it goes I'll find another side (Find another side)
The revolution won't be publicized (Won't be publicized)
There's a war outside, but it's internalized (It's internalized)
Different struggles in these troubled times (Yeah)
In like a year, I feel I'll double mine
(Feel I'll double mine)
You know I'm sorry, should've done you right (Done you right)
But I been caught up with this double life (Okay)
Ayy, I'm done faking it with sleepwalking through these bad nights to get away from it (Get away from it)
So I guess it makes sense I gotta pay for it (Yeah)
This game rough, try to deflate like a Patriot
But never do I fade a bit (Never do I fade a bit)
Fuck it, give me your worst I'll show I'm made for it
(Fuck it, give me your worst I'll show I'm made for it)
[Chorus]
And we—
And we still on this yellow tape road
(And we still on this yellow tape road)
Ayy
Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?
(Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?)
Ayy, and we—
And we still on this yellow tape road
(And we still on this yellow tape road)
Ayy
Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?
(Is there gold at the end of the rainbow?)
