Lyrics

Poor one up for my late brother
Nearly joined him the same way he went guttered
Suicide is a bitch, I almost went shuttered
Until I stopped it with a pen and then I finally gained a purpose
This fucking music be my only drug
Who needs painkillers? This shit be my only love
When I thought I was falling, it was my only dove
But now I'm saved and I'm flying higher than everyone
Okay, I'm not really saved, but hey, I'm getting there
I still got problems and shit, but hey, I'm getting there
And I'ma do this on my own terms
Fuck a ghostwriter, everything I say my own words
I take my life and lay it out to you, I'm moving forward
And when the devil asks for my soul, I'll tell him, "No, sir"
But man, it's getting hard to control, my head to toes hurt
This shit is getting wild, I wish life would have a brochure
I'm sorry for this lyrical bull, I'll just be overt
How the fuck do I got this many friends, but still a loner?
How the fuck have I seen this many deaths, but still I stand?
How the fuck with all this instability I made a plan?
Normally none of that shit tends to go hand in hand
But I never was normal, why should I start playing pretend?
For truth I'm ten toes deep in these rhymes, I'll never bend
For no goofy motherfuckers that try to question my pen
These rappers pig pen material, I'd bring 'em to an end
My doggy told me that I always think my rhymes are heaven-sent, like
Oh well, you know me so well
I'll go back to bumping Mac, then I'll start proving what I tell
And while I don't believe above as an option, I know for sure
That in this life that I've been living, I've seen heaven and hell
Very well, I've come to terms that in this life I won't tap out
I've thought of the eighteenth word, but I won't back out
And when the rapping starts to pay off, I'm gonna cash out
Assuming that the stress don't make me, ha
Humour always helped me cope, can you blame me?
I haven't really felt a hundred percent, especially lately
Goddamn, what woulda happened if the tunes didn't save me?
Goddamn, what woulda happened if I wasn't here paving this path?
'Cause after all the trauma and the bullshit that I had
I had to go through, shoulda ended up a sad sack
But looking where I am, I ain't really half bad
I can't believe I'm saying this, but damn, I'm kinda glad, like
But damn, I'm kinda glad, like
But damn, I'm kinda, fuck
Poor one up for my late brother
Nearly joined him the same way he went guttered
Suicide is a bitch, I almost went shuttered
Until I stopped it with a pen and then I finally gained a purpose
This fucking music be my only drug
Who needs painkillers? This shit be my only love
When I thought I was falling, it was my only dove
But now I'm saved and I'm flying higher than everyone
Okay, I'm not really saved, but hey, I'm getting there
I still got problems and shit, but hey, I'm getting there
I'm trying to break all of the family curses
Last one is a son, I'll make sure their childhood's perfect
I wish that early life was better, life was never certain
But thank God everybody sucks so I can write these verses
Sometimes I wish that life had more rehearsing
Woulda made it easier to prep for shit that wasn't working
Counterpoint confusion is the sauce that brings the purpose to life
If you got nothing to learn, than it's a halt till you die
That's why I try to face it head on
Shout out to yetosky, he always kept my head on
Shout out to LG, helping me keep my head strong
Woulda said it to RV, but he done been gone
They asking 'bout this energy that I done been on
The truth is that I gotta fight 'em just to keep going
I wanna a wife, three kids, wanna live long
But I can't do that if it means the blood will keep flowing
And I won't bring it down till I got my own shit together
'Cause no matter how hard I try, the damage last forever
The best thing that I could do is try to pick petals
It's not perfect, but umbrellas help in shitty weather
Shout out my guardian angel, Mama, you brought me peace
The second person to that is me, would you believe?
I count the people I trust fully on three fingers
But I just wanna make the change so I can be free
I'll be surrounded by them angels one day
No, I don't mean by death, I mean the blessings I'll face
Saved my karma for the winter, knock on wood, stand in place
Let it happen, bro, nothing gonna get in my way
I'ma do this for my brother, rest in peace, goddamn
I'ma do this for my cousin, rest in peace, goddamn
I'ma do this for my mama, I won't do it for no crowd
Hope that I can finally make it, Ma, I hope I made you proud
I hope I made you proud
I hope I made you proud
I hope I made you proud
Poor one up for my late brother
Nearly joined him the same way he went guttered
Suicide is a bitch, I almost went shuttered
Until I stopped it with a pen and then I finally gained a purpose
This fucking music be my only drug
Who needs painkillers? This shit be my only love
When I thought I was falling, it was my only dove
But now I'm saved and I'm flying higher than everyone
Okay, I'm not really saved, but hey, I'm getting there
I still got problems and shit, but hey, I'm getting there, man
Fuck
