Putting up with this place Checked myself Upped the pace Thinking to myself You need to change the state of mind Youve always been The kind of guy Who just hated every part of himself I just couldn't take it Tried to hang myself When I was 8 Since then I could never think straight Longing for a peace of mind I can't say I can't say What's bothering me This whole time I just need to change Its just time to wake Make the way up To the skies And stay smiling As Im going through these days I was tempted to say I'll never make it But I ain't Even trying my hardest So I can't say it I'ma just make it Staying true to myself Ima just play this game moving with my energy Its not the same As faking the moves Ima do what I say Ima do what I do I do what I said Embraced my pain I made the change To walk the way My ancestors intended to this day I'm thankful and so I pray Happy that I'm able to be ok With all that's going on I'll just say Stick together You'll be ok As long as you have each other The days wont just be gray You can still smile It'll still be ok Keep on holding on Make your way Stay true to yourself Watch the times As everything plays out It was always meant to be this way Sometimes you'll be met with pain it's never meant to hurt forever If you let it remain It can cause decay
Putting up with this place
Checked myself
Upped the pace
Thinking to myself
You need to change
the state of mind
Youve always been
The kind of guy
Who just hated
every part of himself
I just couldn't take it
Tried to hang myself
When I was 8
Since then
I could never think straight
Longing for a peace of mind
I can't say
I can't say
What's bothering me
This whole time
I just need to change
Its just time to wake
Make the way up
To the skies
And stay smiling
As Im going through these days
I was tempted to say
I'll never make it
But I ain't
Even trying my hardest
So I can't say it
I'ma just make it
Staying true to myself
Ima just play this game
moving with my energy
Its not the same
As faking the moves
Ima do what I say
Ima do what I do
I do what I said
Embraced my pain
I made the change
To walk the way
My ancestors intended to this day
I'm thankful and so I pray
Happy that I'm able to be ok
With all that's going on
I'll just say
Stick together
You'll be ok
As long as you have each other
The days wont just be gray
You can still smile
It'll still be ok
Keep on holding on
Make your way
Stay true to yourself
Watch the times
As everything plays out
It was always meant to be this way
Sometimes you'll be met with pain
it's never meant to hurt forever
If you let it remain
It can cause decay
