| This is the time, this is the moment we shine, the moment we climb
|
| There’s moments in life where we fall or we fly, but I’m still trying to find
|
| that sky
|
| Looking for a reason to listen to me
|
| Let me just give you some pieces of me
|
| Let me just take out my heart that maybe you’ll see that I’m not Superman that
|
| I really do bleed
|
| Man I’ll give you that fake that repeats in your car
|
| But I’ll give you that music to heal every scar
|
| Look to the sky and I pray to the stars, find out myself I’ve been trapped in
|
| the dark
|
| And I know what it is that I’m here to do
|
| Is this really the person I’m supposed to be?
|
| Trying to give you all my story but I can never find the words cause I don’t
|
| know me
|
| I’m happy, I’m sad, I’m angry, I’m mad, and it’s all because of this past
|
| When every kid in your school believes you can do it, but really thinks that
|
| you’re trash
|
| When you got friends that say, «We'll always be there», I look around,
|
| where you at?
|
| It’s like you all got up and left; |
| onto the next
|
| What was my chance to pack?
|
| Putting in effort but I should’ve known better but being alone is just nothing
|
| but pressure
|
| Through my endeavors I’m piecing this letter to every kid trying to hold it
|
| together
|
| This life is just long, not just some street
|
| Even the strongest of man will fall weak
|
| But with all the pain and the hurt, the tears on your shirt
|
| That’s what finding happiness means
|
| And now you probably think I got this all down
|
| But I don’t even know what I’m doing right now
|
| When you’re giving your best until your last breath
|
| There’s a time where you just want to drown
|
| Picked up myself from the cold hard ground
|
| Friends don’t believe what I’m doing right now
|
| Teachers telling me to pull all this right down
|
| Got this whole time to turn this whole life around
|
| And why follow all the steps when I can make my own trail?
|
| Said the ship will sink, now let’s see me sail
|
| Hopin' that my momma just a fraction of a tale
|
| I’ve been giving you my heart every time it’s been impaled
|
| I ain’t out callin names but you know who you are
|
| Trying to shoot me down but I rose to the stars
|
| No, I’m not there, but I know I’m not far
|
| In the coldest of times you can’t feel anymore
|
| Trying to find happiness, I found it in you
|
| Gave you my all and you break me in two
|
| Broke and confused like I got nothing to lose
|
| I don’t choose to feel for someone, I just do
|
| I don’t choose to get over it, I get through
|
| Built myself up and that was through you
|
| Gave you more than my all
|
| On my knees, I’ma call
|
| But still picked up your calls
|
| Though to me, you don’t mean nothing at all
|
| I don’t mean you mean nothing at all
|
| So many things that I will never get out of my head I could write an endless
|
| letter
|
| Tired of writing, you tore me apart, why not one for who put me together?
|
| See I don’t know what I would write, what I could say, none of this ever comes
|
| easily
|
| I could write you the cheesiest lines but never come close to what you really
|
| mean to me
|
| What do you see in me?
|
| I could feel that I’m close but I’m lost on where to go, I’m just scared what
|
| it’s gonna be like
|
| But however it goes, as you’re holding me close, I can tell what the future
|
| feels like
|
| Like that day on that bridge, where we laughed and we kissed, I say moments
|
| still burning inside
|
| Even with the pain and the bliss, when the stress really hits, you are the
|
| compass defining my mind
|
| Feels like I’m climbing, I’m climbing
|
| I look at my parents their dreams are so hollow
|
| Mom couldn’t handle her liquor, we bicker she taught me this straight from the
|
| bottle
|
| She’s better, and healthy and sleeping
|
| Told to me to chase all the things that I’m dreaming
|
| Give her the house she wants, all the money she needs
|
| I’ma grow her the Garden of Eden
|
| Running out of time, I’ve got nothing to waste
|
| My own producer startin' to lose faith
|
| Now my close friends are turning two faced, I’m faced with two ways—die broke
|
| or get paid
|
| Sitting at work, take a look at yourself
|
| Your life is just scheduled by somebody else
|
| But dreams and their views are not something you choose
|
| But you swallow your two’s 'cause a check really helps
|
| Living my life, that’ll never be me
|
| Look out your window, then maybe you’ll see
|
| The things that you dream of, the things that you can do, the things that you
|
| crave for, the things you could be
|
| So find what you love and don’t ever desert it
|
| You find what you’re worth from the purpose inside
|
| Livin' in a time where these kids are uncertain
|
| It’s eat or be eaten, the hungry survive
|
| Losing my patience with dollars and dimes
|
| I’m unwinding my heart with these lines that I write
|
| If you’re losing your mind, you can jump into mine
|
| Let me open your eyes to a world that is blind
|
| This is a mistake? |
| Then I’m glad that I made it
|
| Step into my shoes or don’t judge where I’ve been
|
| Just look at my eyes and I’ll tell you I’ll make it
|
| Don’t wait on your dream, this your life from within |
