Lyrics This Is The Way - Logic

Welcome to the Aquarius three program
Captains log Thomas Quinten (Uh, yeah)
I've been thinking
About purpose what it means (Uh, uh, yeah)
I used to think goals were a form of purpose
I used to think achieving them is what lead you to happiness
And now I'm starting to realize the happiest I've been
Even though its hard
Was actually the journey of achieving those goals

Aight we finna get it like this on this bitch one time
6ix I see you in the control room
9ine

Gettin' down sippin' brown almost evert night
Thinkin' if I go pop then I can get right
I went pop and then I got left
Listenin' to demon days I ain't got nothin left
Memories at 15 I'm cooking like I'm a chef
Open mic in December chiefin' reefer now peep the breath
Rhymin' with crack dealers first time in the studio
And I'm hopin' that they feel this
Spittin' 15 minutes up on the track
No hook just bars and that's that
Chillin' with my homie Josh you know he got the gat
Finna rob a couple cats that robbed him a couple days back
We all black
Yeah we rob 'em in all black
I ain't even fuck 'em bitch don't wanna die now picture that
I'd rather rap I'd rather illustrate iller than any of 'em
Master of ceremony nah nah ain't many of 'em
I supply that shit that they cookin' over them ovens
Never had one no love me
Never had no one love me
Dad learned how to love me
I had to learn how to love me
Used to put demons above me never that nowadays
I got it I got it I got it
I'm sittin' sideways

Get it right (Get it right)
I'm tryna get it right (Get it right)
Don't overthink it right
Don't overthink it just do it homie
You been right
You know you been right
You always had the sight
You always had it you had the vision to make it right
Tryna get it right
Don't overthink it right
Don't overthink it just do it homie
You been right
You know you've been right
You always had the sight
You always had it you had the vision (Aye)
To make it right

Never go against your intuition
You can learn more from the streets
Then you did from your whole tuition
No I ain't no optometrist but I had the vision
To separate myself from my own division
I studied rap like it was my religion
My lyricism on the track is the illest collision
You know i entered the game like a surgery incision
That's precise
Yeah that boy nice
Put a bullet in my head if I ain't had this vice
Prolly take my life
If I couldn't ask the page for advice
Wouldn't it be nice
Wouldn't it be nice
If I didn't have to worry
In the middle of the night (So so)
This the reason that I write (So)
Wish I had more ink on this page
Rip up the page
Shit was easier back in the day
Just rappin' with FaZe
Nowadays cats take shots
But they never even graze (Graze)
This is the way (The way)
Uh
Rappin' 'til I'm in the grave
Have fun get paid
Do the album 'boutta slave
But it's really not a slave
It's 'bout how I've been a slave
To the label to the industry
I've made no enemies but somehow I still got enemies
Ayo
Tryin' dumb shit just to stay relevant instead of my intuition
At least I used to be
Nowadays I'm used to me
Was scared to reflect
And now I reflect and find correction
And rather less than more like acceptance
Don't overthink (Uh)
Don't overthink
When I do I overdrink
You know I overdrink
My favorite rapper just sent me his unreleased album (Album)
In the cut no camera I wonder what the outcome
Pushin' keys like a piano (Piano)
Talkin' vocally of course (Vocally of course)
I'll murder you all with no remorse (All with no remorse)

Get it right (Get it right)
I'm tryna get it right (Get it right)
Don't overthink it right
Don't overthink it just do it homie
You been right
You know you've been right
You always had the sight
You always had it you had the vision
To make it right
Tryna get it right
Don't overthink it right
Don't overthink it just do it homie
You been right
You know you've been right
You always had the sight
You always had it you had the vision
To make it right

In the emptiness I felt after having achieved them
Was just based on me equating my value to the end product
Rather then the process of
Being
