| Can I take a second?
|
| To speak to you through me
|
| Cause I would love for you
|
| To speak to me through yourself
|
| But that’s what we gotta do
|
| Release it
|
| Now
|
| Give me a second and let me vent a little
|
| I promise I won’t get mushy or sentimental
|
| I know this ride is temporary like I was in a rental
|
| Any resemblence to your life is just coincidental
|
| A real person will I be the true one?
|
| Grey hairs keep coming, everyday I spot and new one
|
| See when I was younger I was bad and wild
|
| Now that I’m older I kinda wish I woulda had a child
|
| I gotta be strong for others when they having trials
|
| So even when I’m feeling low, depressed or sad I smile
|
| And I ain’t giving up so cancel that
|
| Used to only talk to myself but now I answer back
|
| Peep the game on how the devil do
|
| He try to get you for all your spiritual revenue
|
| Pushing you to be misguided and misdirected
|
| New problems popping up just like an instant message
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Confession is medicine for the soul my friend
|
| Let’s take a journey through my mental maze, I’m the guide
|
| One time I quit rapping and started working nine to five
|
| Satisfied with being broke no longer 'bout my wealth
|
| Started to question who I was began to doubt myself
|
| Reduced the mediocrity so I drew the conclusion
|
| That doing music was a true convoluted illusion
|
| The foolish thought my gift was useless seems stupid but proven
|
| Failure to try to learn the truth is the root of confusion
|
| A voice spoke to me in anger asking, «What you doing?»
|
| You should be moving towards your goal, how come you not pursuing?
|
| You supposed to mash, fight the past, hustle like yo dad
|
| Get off ya ass and do it fast' I said alright my bad
|
| I started mashing hard and turning back was never mentioned
|
| Been self-controlled and independent ever since then
|
| My dream I was wasting it cause I was scared of chasing it
|
| Having fear ain’t the problem the problem’s never facing it
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Confession is medicine for the soul my friend
|
| My woman curses me deservingly
|
| Which discourages and worries me because we’re not communicating verbally
|
| And even though she means the world to me
|
| It now nervously occurs to me that she currently might not be the girl for me
|
| Am I flawed in my actions? |
| Obviously
|
| I know my own philosophy is filled with double standards and hypocrisy
|
| But despite this dichotomy I strive to be
|
| Real with those who real with me, and try to be the best person that I can be
|
| My greatest quality is self-motivation
|
| I’m the product of the wildest streets and that’s the side of me I show the
|
| nation
|
| I seen it all I’ve been defenseless, afraid
|
| But at a early age I grew out of my sensitive stage
|
| Now I’m grown and I’m still standing strong nothing’s scaring me
|
| If you gotta cry, go ahead and cry tears are therapy
|
| I promise whatever you going through will be done in time
|
| Keeping it in ain’t never good, say what’s on your mind
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Release it, let it go, it ain’t good to hold it in
|
| Confession is medicine for the soul my friend |
