They say forgiveness is a virtue, but I’d rather keep my anger
The lessons that come with playing nice I’m no stranger
You learn really quick in life not to accept favors
Most people got they own agenda and don’t care to put you in danger
Some trauma I can’t talk bout
Just thank my savior we made it out that house
Lord knows it took a different type of patience to keep from crashin out
Promise moms I wouldn’t take the dummy route
And not for nothing witnessed my homie lose his life to the system
Only let off 3 rounds
Still question what was going through his prism
To throw it all away impulsively in a split second
But who am I kiddin only a couple dumb decisions and me his living conditions be no different
Jesus taught me forgiveness but the world taught me it can get real vicious
Either lesson fits depending on the situation
but just wish my homie had more awareness to clear his vision
The stars smiled upon us as if they knew we’d soon join them
Air still Vibez tense Stress immense Cold sweats Heavy breaths Start to wonder is this death Tightening around the chest Voice can’t project feels like a noose tightened around my neck Start to question then reflect Feelings of emptiness take effect Nothing to do but accept Stare at the stars realize I’m next Another lost soul in the cosmos Tryna share it’s light before it implodes And all that’s left is a black hole Question lies can I shine before I’m gone
If your hand could reach inside my heart what would you do with it?
Heal it or add more scars and bruises
Help put it back together or tear it into even more pieces
Would you fix or destroy Be my angel or demon
The questions rhetorical I gave you my heart and I haven’t seen it since
Guess it wasn’t a lie and more of a warning when you choose to love a part of you goes extinct
Hope is the bridge between despair and joy
Ima product of that statement
Tough times firm you up like the concrete that formed the pavement
Meaning they’re necessary
It’s more so the journey the destination starts becoming secondary
Without mistakes there’s no lessons.
Ignorance is bliss until you pass adolescence
Knowledge is the key to succeed
Learning and exploring your self will lead to future relief
Knowing yourself gon lead you down the right path
And ima hypocrite tried to forget my past
Only made me revert backwards
Stunted my own growth kept repeating the same chapters
Only 20 yrs old yet I’m preaching my pain like a pastor
Life ain’t no fairytale and dreams
no such thing as a happily ever after
It’s like a rollercoaster
Just gotta learn to deal with the motions
Had to unlearn self destructive habits And the right ways of coping
If not now just know one day you gon have to face those emotions
Take it from another person who’s broken
Hard to be this vulnerable had to learn how to open
And even then part of me would rather be voiceless
Rather suffer by my lonesome than seek some assistance
Is it pride
Is it ego
I’ll tell you once I end up on the other side
For now hopes what’s keeping me alive
To self destruct or to grow Conflicted Lost Stuck I don’t even know no more
Eyes
Self esteem
Feelings
All low
been high for months
Been numb for months
Maybe why I’m in a slump
But without the drugs I don’t feel much
I mean shit just last year I was on deaths door
By my own hands only survived by luck
Ungrateful or grateful shit you take a guess Sober again already tryna escape stress Tryna avoid this mess More like neglect But on bad days I give it the opposite affect Instead of tryna reject I only get more obsessed Narcissism or a sadistic mindset So many questions with answers I’ll never get Say I’m numb to it all but I’m just lying to myself
Its dark in here I’m sinking yet i feel no fear I’m burning i can feel my rage is near Vision blurred by crystal clear tears Flooding my face each one hurts As they attempt they’re escape I’m tired I’m running off of nothing Chaos is corrupting my mind I’m numb beyond understanding More drugs falling under my consumption But why? to feel or not to feel? I’m not computing the question Really I’m indecisive Honestly i lost track of it Evade my reflection all I feel is self repulsion This ball of mixed emotions has me moving impulsive
I regret the actions i made Really i dont i just regret the pain i caused Clearly printed on their face I get my life saved but my freedom taken away Was it to no avail i cant truly say Gave me clarity in the most painful of ways I want my freedom but I’m constabtly being told to wait I start accepting the fact that I really do need to change Somehow i catch a lucky break But was it luck? i returned right back the environment that contributes to my pain After the limited happiness washes away i realize its all the same
Its dark in here I’m sinking yet i feel no fear I’m burning i can feel my rage is near Vision blurred by crystal clear tears Flooding my face each one hurts As they attempt they’re escape I’m tired I’m running off of nothing Chaos is corrupting my mind I’m numb beyond understanding More drugs falling under my consumption But why? to feel or not to feel? I’m not computing the question Really I’m indecisive Honestly i lost track of it Evade my reflection all I feel is self repulsion This ball of mixed emotions has me moving impulsive
You’re really my heart I pray to god it don’t get torn apart I call you my everything Cuz I’m obsessed You know you’re my remedy When I’m upset I got bad codependency And I know it’s unhealthy And baby I’m sorry it’s true Without your attention or presence I start feeling blue You’re always on my mind that’s why I’m stuck writing rhymes all bout you
I’m scared to get attached but when it came to you I said fuck it and never looked back Cuz for you I’m taking that risk You got my heart on lock Just pray you don’t change and abuse it Cuz for you I’d do anything Honestly when it comes to love I get real stupid
I will not walk this earth without you I really can’t that task is too impossible Never met someone who felt so compatible It’s crazy how compared to anyone I know your so different Yet so relatable We really twinning That’s why it hurts me when I know that your hurting And I know that you deserve the world I hope maybe I can help you obtain it Cuz your always giving yourself to others Without them returning the favor But I hope with me it can be a 2 way street You know I’m here for you whenever you need me Never switching up even when times get tough Sounds like I’m saying my vows Really I’m just speaking my heart Cuz you done thawed it out When I thought it was frozen shut I’m forever grateful that You taught me how to love
The birds crow a weeping melody, trees clean of leaves
I know it might feel hard to I don’t know
but just breathe in real slow
Exhale out the pain as the wind blows
lèche-vitrine
I’ll always be watching you as though I’m shopping from the window
And I know I’m wrong
But I hope that’ll ease the actions I’ve done
I know I’m gone and I’m the reason for your tears mom
I wish I showed you I love you more
You’re beyond loved
Appreciated
Valued
And idolized
But instead I’ve left you torn
Because my idol slowly took the gentleness away from my eyes
And in return added fuel for the demon’s residing in my mind
My love is perceived by some
At surface level to be warm
But like a Rose looks can be deceiving
And the end result is scars left from thorns
My loves toxic
But it must be genetic mom
Because so was yours
So please wipe your tears and listen to
The birds crow a weeping melody, trees clean of leaves
As your heart like the winter breeze starts to freeze
My apologies
That toxic part you instilled in me
Doesn’t want to see you grieve
Rather your heart bleed to misery
For all the pain that I’ve received
I want to feel, I want to know. I want to love, I want to grow
I want honesty, I wanna know if you can keep it real at all times possibly. I want trust, I want an unbreakable bond ride or die loyalty.
I want to learn to love, I wanna be attached safely I want to lose my codependency, I want to stop getting hooked to my emotions like drugs But without em I feel empty
Fuck it It is what it is Heart scarred got no more love to give Just cope with the green And numb all my feelings So high I can’t feel my demons Brain driving me to the point of insanity I’m losing my reasoning But I’m still putting up a fight for the team It’s so hard need some eternal sleeping Please stay the fuck away Can’t breathe anxiety tweakin Rollin trees and poppin p’s Seems like the only remedy The help me feel some relief When I’m sober I never get to leave My head I’ve been taken into captivity Feels like I’ll never get released
Yea I’m trapped don’t know long I’ll last wrapped up in these chains that are controlling my brain and keeping me behind bars mentally Cuz I’m tired of dealing with these mental illusions it’s driving me to delusion I would ask for help but I feel more comfortable in seclusion seems like I’ll never escape that’s my conclusion cuz see I’m more vocal in these rhymes I write when I should be more social with the people in my life but seems like I can’t speak my mind and I don’t know why cuz every time when I’m about to say something I truly feel what comes out is usually nothing it’s like something holding me back in reality it’s myself and my fears What if I open up and I get the response I don’t want to hear see that’s my problem I’m not good with confrontation I’d rather keep to myself and deal with the pain I’m feeling I’m trying to escape my thoughts cuz when I get lost I end up in a realm where I gotta face my demons and I’m fighting back but I feel too overwhelmed and I just can’t take it no more I’ve been past my breaking point for too long Just like a caged bird I cope through singing healing songs In hopes it’ll mend a broken soul that’s too far gone
