Lyrics

My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there Oh are you there I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there Oh are you there I used to be that dude lost in the distance Looking over bridges Wondering how people doin good I didn't get it Wondering how people doin fine all the time While I'm workin my behind off and I ain't got a dime When my car breaks down Every other Mile But I gotta go to work and keep Maintaining a smile untill we all get lifted One day we gon get this If you waitin for this window you will probly miss it If you waitin for someone to tell you that your worth Then the chances are you'll probly never get what you deserving So gon get them blessings Hang out with your best friends You steady confessing to someone who thinks your less than My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there Oh are you there I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there Oh are you there You ever Waited for someone just as imperfect as you To tell you how to live your life when they just haven't a clue I Know You got intentions don't mean you got good advice Had i followed every word I'd be done with living life No I'd be still in the basement With my momma wasted Wondering why life is hard i'm so afraid to face it And still In the background I am done with that now I am done with thinking all that I can get are handouts I have fallen by the wayside (Let me speak now) All that I have I Had gladly gave to your invasive taste and There was no way that i could satisfy (Let me speak now) I know that your ashamed Of everything I became Whats to say My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there Oh are you there I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there Oh are you there And I was all for the death of me Could it be that every Person that was talking pushed me into inactivity You tell me that it's fine be content with what you have What I have is a mindset that I could never have Never get or achieve or try to do better See i know you mean good But you can kiss my sweater Cuz I'm better off without you Too much time around you Bought into a narrative I later found was not true And funny how they treat you when they learn they can't control you Curse your very name in blame game enroll you (Yeah) Tell you that your weak and power you'll never grasp it But when you find success there the ones that made it happen My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there (Let me speak now) Oh are you there (Let me speak now) Ive been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there Oh are you there You say that anyone that leaves there happiness never lasted And I've been watching people who's lives are fantastic Now I'm setting goals right This is what it looks like How you gon be mad when I ran and I took flight Wonder how this lasted Was it because of my past Its bad for all of us to incentivize and prioritize all our goals in life To make it to benefit you because We are the ones that are losing Every time you change your mind to try And fill everyone with a lie why My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there (Let me speak now) Oh are you there (Just let me speak now) I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there Oh are you there (Just let me speak now) I refuse to be a puppet I love it or give it up
