Time for Myself |
| I grew up with a lot of racism |
| And only Lord knows how much I hated them |
| For showing me hate and never had I been mean to them |
| Was just a little kid trying to get friends with them |
| They used to call me ugly names cause my skin was dark |
| I couldn’t take the pain couldn’t play in the park |
| But that didn’t stop them they used to shout from far |
| Saying go back home cause a nigger you are |
| And at that time I didn’t even know what that meant |
| I was probably six or seven year’s old man |
| I told the teachers, never got help |
| All they said, you gotta know your different play with yourself |
| Man, I felt so alone |
| Never liked school couldn’t wait to get home |
| But as the days passed I got through it all |
| But from time to time I break down when I remember it all so |
| I just need a little time for myself |
| So I can, think bout my life no body else |
| I just need a little time for myself |
| So I can take it easy, do ya hear me |
| I had low self esteem |
| Always walked fast passed the mirror wouldn’t see, or except myself |
| I didn’t wanna be me |
| I would have done anything so I could be somebody else |
| I tried to fit in, but wouldn’t get in |
| The only place I got in was the wrong click |
| I hung in but it wasn’t good for me |
| I knew I wanted much more than to pocket pick |
| I was afraid how my life would end |
| No body wanted me around I wasn’t good with friends |
| Probably cause I wasn’t trying to let |
| Anybody see the real me and know how I felt |
| They’d look down on me |
| Say what I couldn’t be |
| That’s what my mind used to say slowly killing me |
| But days passed I got through it all |
| But sometimes I remember it all so |
| I just need a little time for myself |
| So I can, think bout my life no body else |
| I just need a little time for myself |
| I used to think that love last forever |
| But when my parents divorced I cried forever |
| I saw it coming but refused to understand it |
| Why it happened to us, I couldn’t handle it |
| See I was used to having problems outside |
| Cause when I came home I had a reason to smile |
| But when that stopped, where was I to turn to |
| Didn’t trust anybody else to talk to |
| I got weird it affected my life |
| Started with bad thoughts everyday was a fight |
| Kept everything inside, never talked about it |
| I put on my mask like everything’s alright |
| Between the age of thirteen to nineteen |
| Drama all around and I got caught up in between, shit |
| But days passed I got through it all |
| But sometimes I remember it all so |
