There's a whole lot to unpack In a mind constantly racing There's a lot more words to speak When there's nothing left worth sayin When the moment passes by you And you're wishing it were different When you waited for the chaos But everything had shifted When you lifted up your head and saw your daughter laying by you All you knew is that your heart had been enveloped like a file When you wished your life was different cuz right now you kinda like it Which is different in a head where you're not used to bein liked Wishing things were worse cuz all the good seems too defiant When you're used to hearing screaming All you hear now is a silence But you're used to being silenced So that quiet's kinda frightenin But the fear brings back excitement cuz it feels just like it's home Except the home is where this started so you start to feel alone Because a lonely you is better than someone who doesn't grow Choking on these words as they came out your fucking throat Because so long you've let em eat you til their underneath the bone Where you've lost a lotta strength cuz you done held it for so long That you forget to pay attention to how much luggage you owned Sharing baggage with the people that already have their own Is how the system became broken and I don't think that we can fix it See the problem isn't people, it's the ego held inside It's this thought that someday maybe we'll get better with the times But the times don't ever come cuz we refuse to be alright Because alright means I'm okay and that I cannot play the victim Cuz the victim gets attention when they're broken and alone Because alone isn't very nice because alone is how you wound up here Addicted to the pills Addicted to the women To the money and the thrills To the past 10 years where you almost lost your life Where you'd take a fucking bullet for those who wouldn't lend a knife Where you would shatter expectation of the you you're meant to be And show the world a different side of you nobody ever'd seen Lookin back now I guess that followin my dreams is what put me in this position But the dreams lead me to a spot where I could stand in opposition But as you're sitting here and writing this you see the eagles beat the giants But you don't even care Cuz you don't like either team You were trained to stay consumed in every single thing you see From the age of only 9 seeing towers on TV And seeing things for what they were The world was never what it seemed You see the violence wasn't new to me But seeing others suffer was Cuz I believed nobody ever had to suffer through the mud I always thought I had it bad Growing up I probably did But with two parents in my life I had it better than a lot You see I ain't even braggin I wish they'd divorced sooner Cuz then these feelings of being overlooked would never be My mother was so focused on her marriage she could not focus on me And my father though he loved me and I know he meant it well Made my adolescence terror and my youth a living hell I acknowledge that on terms that I've addressed it with my dad See I've done a lot of growing up both in spirit and in time And one thing that I acknowledge is that I was never fine I was never in a place where being stable was a thought Which is why I learned to love all of the chaos that I sought Because it made it feel like home And home was where it started From the bottom of my heart just know You asked me to be honest
