| They told me I would see the truth, but how much time will it take
|
| I see memories in your mind are overcrowded with hate
|
| I thought I caught a glimpse of joy, but it was an honest mistake
|
| I see the pain in your heart right through that smile on your face
|
| I and just can’t take it homie, I see you aiming for greatness
|
| And I think you’ll make it homie, trying to be patient while pacing But time is
|
| racing homie, I see these other busters hating on me
|
| They say I’m fake and phony so what yo they don’t know me
|
| As proud as you seem, you’re doubting your dreams
|
| Tripping off cowards you’d devour just empowered by greed
|
| Spending hours in the shower while it’s crowded with steam
|
| Wipe off the mirror and fill it with the loudest of screams
|
| I’m yellin
|
| I hear what you tell me but
|
| You gon have to show me
|
| If you don’t like me, well
|
| You don’t know me at all
|
| I’m sure I can save you
|
| Hero I must be
|
| But you don’t like me, well
|
| I’m a make you love me
|
| Here we go again you and I
|
| Standing in this mirror once again Contemplating suicide
|
| Watching one another cry, wiping up each others eyes
|
| No one else around to talk me down, maybe you can try
|
| That’s what it’s like when no one’s willing to help
|
| I guess I’m my own therapist, I’m healing myself
|
| Like Antonio tell me all those feelings you felt
|
| When you had to talk yourself out of killing yourself
|
| Did the mission on my own, definition of alone
|
| Had to be the father figure I was missing all along
|
| Had a vision of a throne, where I would sit when I was grown
|
| Painting pictures of my pain to the rhythm of this song
|
| I hear what you tell me but
|
| You gon have to show me
|
| If you don’t like me, well
|
| You don’t know me at all
|
| I’m sure I can save you
|
| Hero I must be
|
| But you don’t like me, well
|
| I’m a make you love me
|
| Then I opened up my eyes and no one was there
|
| So I guess it’s time to end it now I’m growing a pair
|
| Really felt like I could do it even though I was scared
|
| You see the thing that hurts the most is thinking no one would care
|
| Then I heard something say, whenever you’re through crying
|
| I’ll give you everything you need, just trust me in due time
|
| There’s heaven and a hell and a world in between
|
| I see the apple of your eye but here’s the girl of your dreams
|
| I was blessed with a family I didn’t understand it
|
| I have the best son in the world, the greatest woman on the planet
|
| This treasure I’ve just been handed, I’ll never take it for granted
|
| I was famished; |
| I was damaged and ended up with an advantage
|
| Building lessons for my son checking off my list
|
| I’ll teach him about gain, I’ll teach him about risk
|
| I’ll tell him about pain, I’ll tell him about bliss
|
| Whenever he sheds tears I’ll hug him and tell him this
|
| I hear what you tell me allow me to show you
|
| If they don’t like you, they don’t know you
|
| Remember you saved me, hero you must be
|
| Cause I didn’t like me, but you made me love me |
