JoJo's Word |
| Blood on my hands, blood on my wrist, yeah |
| Fighting the pain, clenching my fist, yeah |
| Y’all probably saying, «How did he get here?» |
| I recollect while I sit here |
| Nothing is going right, dreaming that my demons is on sight |
| Maybe I’ve been living the wrong life |
| Project building children, I’m just one of many children |
| Raised by the system, pops was a victim |
| We didn’t wanna sell but they was 'bout to evict him |
| And his whole family, momma got trama from drama |
| It’s insanity, recently she been strung out |
| Caught her where the drug dealers hung out |
| She seen me and ran like shots rung out |
| Just a matter of time before the block come out |
| And tell me I’m a crack baby, I need a gat maybe |
| I’m only 15, it’s that crazy |
| Blood on my hands, blood on my wrist, yeah |
| Fighting the pain, clenching my fist, yeah |
| Y’all probably saying, «How did he get here?» |
| I recollect while I sit here |
| Grandma say, «Life is precious», but I can’t stand it |
| I ain’t living life, I’m doing life on the planet |
| I got a friend in my head that understand it |
| That voice taking control, I call her Janet |
| Not schizophrenic I just see the real things |
| Can it be therapeutic to kill things? |
| Especially when they become a burden |
| Like that little kid that could never get a word in |
| Never getting love, never been deserving |
| Well hopefully they clap when it’s closed curtains |
| I’m so certain, I ain’t finna grow |
| I don’t wanna breathe, I just wanna go (What?) |
| Blood on my hands, blood on my wrist, yeah |
| Face of disgrace, I promised I wouldn’t drip tears |
| Small heart, big fears, looking in the mirror |
| This is it, yeah, never thought I’d be my own killer |
| Mom’s dealer gave me something that’d numb the filler |
| Every bit of the pain, the wall and floor stained |
| Been in this bathroom for about an hour |
| Grandma sleep, she thinking I’m in the shower |
| But by the time she wake up, no more drama |
| Just nerve damage and nirvana |
| A step closer to death, I feel calmer, I feel purpose |
| At home it’s easy to feel worthless |
| The knife I used is laying on the floor |
| I sure am satisfied, I done tried before |
| I’m having flashbacks to everything that I saw |
| Then I feel somebody opening the door |
| Blood on my hands, blood on my wrist, yeah |
| Family screaming, damn my demons got me |
| Prayer couldn’t stop me, heaven dropped me |
| Now I suffer, grandma calling for my mother |
| She don’t want me but I love her |
| Sorry to my baby brother, no more pain, I got you covered |
| All this bleeding fucked the tub up |
| Grandma lift me, thought I hovered |
| In this world it’s gotten tougher, pop I love you |
| So much shit I needed from you |
| Hope I didn’t disappoint you |
| It was either this or join you in that prison |
| Grandma gripping my small body, telling me to hold on |
| Her palms so soft, make me wanna stay strong |
| Her eyes watering, wonder where we went wrong |
| By the time they cared, I was gone |
