lyrics

Back when I was hearing voices, I was stuck in a pen complaining on what hurt me,
was never talented I couldn’t
express my own challenges thinking I wasn’t normal so I was constantly stuck in a corner
Disabling performance living to see the next day is just a bonus, but what’s a life if your homie ain’t here to enjoy it?
Stuck questioning my identity that haunts me, since a boy I could never understand what ‘walk’ means
This is for the kid who lost it all in the block street, I was ten but it all weighs heavy on my conscience,
my heart full of resentment looking for ways to relieve tension and my depression always hits at the worse times when I’m stressing
But it’s all good thank god for Nicki she’s a blessing
Hitting it daily my lungs know I’m crazy but I’m willing to compensate if I relax off of it
Sorry, in the depths I’m a monster who’s always lacking confidence, the devils watching in looking how complicated it gets
and I got lost in search of lust, let men and women use me just to feel sum
And I’m dying to know who’s the next to do it, pursuing my dreams is something I’m refusing, confusions fogging my brain it’s driving me insane but I keep moving
and the stains that block my path is sure to keep me strain
I just hope my girl know that I’m bout her
Out the shower suicidal thoughts is lower but the lust is louder, came to a point of stuffing my face in powder
Till she came in showed me there’s more than pain and true power
I know that I’m a coward, ran away like pussies do in front of something so beautiful,
shy away from the great is something humans do
Tired of hiding my true self in the midst of color swirls,
tryna be an honest man but I’m stuck on these girls that never cared about me whenever My heart was in a curl
Back when was I dressed in rain I knew I wanted to be like my brother Earl,
I give you heartfelt verses but you never hear it,
smearing blood filled fingers on my phone just for you to clear it,
Know I know you don’t feel me, known each other a while but the love don’t run freely
I’m ya brother and you refuse to believe me
Back in eighth grade when we was all cheery, inseparable even in death when it took one of us nearly
I wish there were more simpler days, you’re a mentor to me and a brother to keep it straight
For KOMA I desire the worlds heart for you, I know I been hard on you, but thank you for sticking around I owe it all to you
Apologize for the disappointment, took a risk for me but Im glad I was anointed
Making music with the best element I’m proud I didn’t join in
Cus of the motivation it gave me to keep going allowed me to construct the gift that was appointed since birth,
Know I pray with my eyes closed and hope our brotherhood don’t burn like old ones who dumped me into the curb.
