Chorus 
I'm a prisoner in my own mind 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind) 
Prisoner in my own mind 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind) 
I'm a prisoner in my own mind 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind) 
I'm a prisoner in my own mind 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me 
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind) 

Verse 1 
I was young when my mama had me 
Think I ran away from home 'bout the age of fifteen, juvenile detention 
Talked about behind my back by my family members 
H-hurtful feeling bein' the black sheep every family visit 
I'll admit it, bein' young, I made some bad decisions 
Heart too big, I guess my loyalty got used against me 
Learned to focus on myself, now I got tunnel vision 
Kicked in my ass when I was down and went through hell to get back 
Been to the group homes, I've been on lockdown and I've been upstate 
Lived in a few homes, holdin' the block down, movin' this weight 
Never spoke on this, they say that I murdered my best friend 
It was just business, it wasn't personal, you know how the world is 

Chorus
I'm a prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
Prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
I'm a prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
I'm a prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
Get 'em, Gates

Verse 2
I'm 'bout to clear my heart
Stand on the business and ain't ever fold
I got some uncles who killers (For real)
Who baggin' someone who ain't play by the code (Yeah)
My favorite rapper my cousin (Yeah)
I looked up to him ever since we was kids (For real)
Hope that he know that I love him
Guess all good things must come to an end
I know some industry niggas
And they never lived the way I lived
Sayin' I'm anti-social (What?)
I can't make you feel the way I feel (Uh-huh)
Head up high, got great ideas
'Cause I got blackballed and they scared of me
I'll die for you if I care for you
I'ma ride for you, never change up, love

Bridge
I'm a great friend, I'm just not a friend
And I'ma die for you if I care for you
I'ma ride for you, never change up, love
And I'll admit it, bein' young, I made some bad decisions
Heart too big, that's when my loyalty got used against me

Chorus
I'm a prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
Prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
I'm a prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
I'm a prisoner in my own mind
I feel like these walls talkin' to me
I feel like these walls talkin' to me (In my own mind)
