Alone + Scared
Dreams of being big, won't get shoved back
Speaking the truth is what all of yall lack
Fortunate in many ways but the mind's dark
Friends introduced to hip-hop, that was my spark
Important to the genre like Lewis & Clark
Best new inventions, call me Tony Stark
Lifes pretty stressful, don't dismiss
Music is hope, that's why I do this
I'm too poetic, to let it, be
I was made for this, can't you see
Dreams of my own but wanna make em proud
Hard to please anyone when everyone doubts
Seems like I gotta, pick and choose
Who to live for cause I don't wanna lose
Everything, it always seems to fal apart
See at the end but wish I knew from the start
Stressless, but remain alone and scared
Tricked myself into thinkin' anyone cared
Listen to my legacy, least they stopped and stared
Even though we know I can't be repaired
(x2)
Whenever I graze at the big picture
Depression and Remorce, seem to be the mixture
My heart sinks lower when I see others smile
I get no respect cause they don't feel my style
I see, and notice, the monster in me
I've tried to deal, but it's stuck inside of me
I cry on the inside with every breathe
Praying for my dream as I cling to death
The moment when fantasy becomes reality
Working and working, for the totality
Defying odds to be worshipped like a god
Always speak my mind so I can't be a fraud
When the payday comes, my soul will stay attached
The moment was out to grab, so I went and snatched
Never was good for anything but never quit
Guess I'll inspire millions, with words I spit
