lyrics

I got my heart on my sleeve
It’s getting harder to breathe
I seen patterns repeat
Grown men turn weak
Young kids don’t eat
Getting lost in the street
I see death in the air
Niggas really don’t care
Losing focus, I stare out the window
The rain pouring at a different tempo
Can it slow down
It’s a flood now
I see my blood on the ground
What if I bleed out
I been in a drought
Can’t cope with doubt
I been walking on the same route
Got my foot on the curb
Lately I been disturbed
My mother’s words help me when I’m hurt
I can’t tell if I’m blessed or cursed
Had to stay alert from my first breath
I was bout five when I learned about death
I was being bout eight thinking I was next
But I’m still here, got my foot on they necks
17, I had to fly, left my mommas nest
Since then I been saying shit from the chest
Now I’m 21, nowhere near my best
I’m working too hard, need some time to rest
Bags under my eyes
I seen the sun arise
Lightning crack from the sky
Ain’t no guarantees in life, all you gotta do is try
