Don't Wanna Be |
I take life for granted, made mistakes in the past |
Don’t want to harbour so much hate in my heart |
Found my way through the dark |
And only by closing my open eyes and taking a chance |
I wanna make my family proud |
And show those that I love that I ain’t standing round |
I hate backing down, hate lashing out |
Hate that I hate so much — what is this hate rant about?! |
I don’t wanna be this negative person |
Pessimistic, perfectionist obsessively working |
Always anxiety ridden |
It’s like my mind’s in Rhyme Asylum inside of a prison |
It’s a blessing and a curse |
I just want us heard and to get the respect that we deserve |
I need to stop and breathe |
Cos in reality there ain’t nothing stopping me be what I wanna be |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
I’mma go it alone, on my own rowing this boat |
No-one to throw me a rope |
Feel like I’m lost at sea |
Tryna make waves, on this endless expanse of monotony |
And I gotta be what I wanna be |
Or else it’s like telling my heart not to beat |
Telling my lungs not to breathe |
Inspirations an island just beyond my reach |
Chances are few and far between |
On an ocean with nowhere to plant my seeds |
And you reap what you sow |
It’s getting dark, I keep an eye on my beacon of hope |
Hope in every vein and capillary |
My message in a bottle is my name on the pages of history |
I got two ores |
One named determination and the others name is ability |
This me ain’t the way that I wanna be |
Now I know its the way that I gotta be |
I’ve had my heart broken before |
Another persons actions controlling my emotions and thought |
Love is a battlefield — I’m a soldier at war |
People saying «I don’t know him no more» |
The old me’s dead and gone, I got away with murdering him |
So my split personality holding the fort |
Now I gotta look deep |
My older said «don't regret anything that makes you smile that’s how it should |
be» |
And so I took heed |
Now I live my life, a different guy but miss the nights I could sleep |
Thinking isn’t it funny |
I used to be in control but I’m driven by women and money |
In this eternal search for a pot of gold |
Where I’ve lost my soul and my hearts gotten cold |
