Lyrics

You know, in life, people can see a good thing and judge you for going through things that make your story not look like what they think you should look like Now let me talk This is the story of an only child, who grew up in a world full of people Still a lonely child Well known in any room that he walks through Kinda shy, the voices in his head is who he talks to They say his mama made of gold, solid She walked a clean path, but he got ripped by thorns when he tried to frolic Tried to stay positive Going through all kinds of shit Life throwing challenges, it's safe to say he dodging it Clarity and common sense, erasing the apocalypse Holding on for life like he a baby on his mama's hip Understanding life is understanding what you're gonna get When you start breaking curses, and stop breaking all these promises When the truth hurts, he paint it as hypocritical Then make his own truth, thinking he the one they should listen to Ten toes down and he ain't really understanding that Sometimes what you stand for can keep you where you standing at Nigga Calm down, nigga That's what they tell him Calm down, nigga And you ain't where you wanna be in life, man Just look around, nigga Just look around, nigga They say he look at the mirror and the mirror looks back And when he talk to the mirror, man, the mirror talk back A problem child that they never knew was problematic Hid depression like abortion, they never knew that he had it Covered up in accomplishments, soul searching for trouble He'll deal with the punishment Time on earth is a garnishment Working til it's paid off Can't afford a fix, cause everything that he crave costs And they finally figured out So the people asking questions now The questions that they ask is what is there to be depressed about How dare they They wanna act concerned, but deep down they don't care They wanna know what it takes to make it burn, then offer a band-aid Man Cause they don't wanna see him healed They just wanna see him hurt True or not, that's how he feel Now he think that he deserve it And you can tell this nigga hurtin Imagine living for the purpose of finding you have no purpose Now tell me who deserve that Man And they tell him calm down nigga I swear they tell him calm down nigga And you don't like where you at in the world man Just look around nigga Just look around nigga They say he stare at the mirror and the mirror stare back And when he talk to the mirror man the mirror talk back Well let it speak
