First things first
If I'm ever doing good I promise it ain't how it look, pockets running thin and I only got faith in two books
One full of verses the other in hooks
Both telling me of life and how I should be living, both speaking about my life and which cards I've been given
Constantly I ignore both regardless of the oath I've sworn to, and I search the world for the one who I'll successfully mourn to
I never looked for love above and beyond
Maybe just a shoulder to cry on
In that I'd never believe in
Just wanted the closest thing to heaven on earth that I'm worthy of recieving
Is that too much to ask for?
At night I close my eyes and I grab for
Keep tabs for, exactly what I want to remember
Being me in public, not talking about a new year new me
This deeper than the end of December
I buckle in because I know how things get
This ride it do slip and it slide
One moment you fly next moment you tired and trying to hide
Pushing further away from everyone who did stay
Living by different names just like the soup of the day
I know the thoughts, "may they never see the real me so a mask I shall wear on my face"
Don't keep bottling up maybe you should just say
what's on your mind?
It's not in what we speak but by our actions in how we're defined, trust the process it'll all come through in due time
It's unique and metaphysically designed
So relax your mind, you worry about yours and I'll worry about mine
Don't wait until the end of the day to realize that you one of a kind, and like sun rays your sunshine will never resign
