Read All About It |
I wanna sing, I wanna shout, |
I wanna scream till the words dry out. |
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid, |
They can read all about it, read all about it, oh Nothing to hide |
Stifle and smother |
Suffered and cried |
Strife made me tougher |
Never mumbled or shy to, |
The trouble, I’ll rise above all |
Expectations forget rep |
Ain’t never begged yet |
When I wanted to get pence, hustle, |
To be, I’m exactly what my neck says. |
Saying I tried to cash in on my Dad’s death, |
I wanted to vent 'stead I said nothing at all. |
After all you were never kin to me, |
Family is something that you never been to me, |
In fact making it harder for me to see my father |
Was the only thing that you ever did for me. |
I wanna sing, I wanna shout, |
I wanna scream till the words dry out. |
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid, |
They can read all about it, read all about it, oh. |
As a kid I looked up to you, |
Only thing was I never saw enough of you. |
The last thing I said to you was I hated you, |
I loved you and that’s too late to say to you. |
Just didn’t know what to do or how to deal with it, |
Even now deep down I still live it. |
To think I used to blame me, |
I wonder what I did to you to make you hate me. |
I wasn’t even 5, life’s a journey and mine wasn’t an easy ride, |
You never even got to see me rap, |
I just wish you woulda reached out, |
I wish you woulda been round when I been down. |
I wish that you could see me now, |
Wherever you are I really hope you find peace. |
But know that if I ever have kids, |
Unlike you I’ll never let them be without me. |
I wanna sing, I wanna shout, |
I wanna scream till the words dry out. |
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid, |
They can read all about it, read all about it, oh I write songs I can’t listen to Everything I have, I give to you |
In every one of these lines I sing to you. |
My job’s more like public service |
My life just became yours to read and interpret. |
If you heard it it’d come across a lot different at times |
I throw fits when I read how they word things. |
You see me smile |
Now you’re gonna have to see me hurtin' |
Cause pretending everything is alright |
When it ain’t, really isn’t working. |
I wanna sing, I wanna shout, |
I wanna scream till the words dry out. |
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid, |
They can read all about it, read all about it, oh I ain’t censoring myself for nobody |
I’m the only thing I can be, |
All that is good, all that is bad, all that is, me. |
I wanna sing, I wanna shout, |
I wanna scream till the words dry out. |
So put it in all of the papers, I’m not afraid, |
They can read all about it, read all about it, oh |
