To any of my fans
Thank you for rocking with me all these years
I appreciate it
But sometimes this, this music, these lyrics
They get too real, they
They uh, hurt me to say them sometimes but
If ain't being honest with myself and
And all my fans and my family then, what the hell am I even doing
This is me uh, 120 percent
What you hear on the mic is what I'm like in real life
If I'm struggling I'll let you know alright
I'll continue to fight
Yeah I know we had our ups and downs
Bout a hundred rounds
But the fight is never over when it's worth it
Just because a couple years that weren't perfect
Doesn't mean that we can't turn it all around and make it work
I know it's eating at you, like it's eating at me
If our issues were meals, demons could feast
Feels like I'm walking on eggshells, when I'm trying to sneak
Wanted my cake and eat it too, but gotta watch my physique
Feels like I'm having conversations with myself when I speak
I pushed everyone away in just a matter of weeks
The truth is I feel like a burden just the way that I be
So I became like a bird, and just flew away when I'd freak
You'd be happier without me
That's depression, I'm weak
I don't believe that you would listen that's just me being bleak
Though I would never turn my back on any of you and leave
I feel you'd grow better without me, make me proud ya'll, peace

If I leave
Would you miss me tomorrow, would you be
A little upset if I don't come home
If you got that call in the middle of the night that I took my life
I've tried to overcome it all but I can't
I can't, I can't

I'm overcome by my emotions
Self loathing is ferocious
Sad, cause I probably do it the mostest
Even if you hear me drop a funny song I guarantee you
If you listen harder the meaning's deeper than oceans
I approach this
Like it's the end of my commotions
I gave you all I had but wasn't good enough
I know this is only gone reach an ear or two
Maybe in a year or two
You'll look back at what I've done and notice I was here for you
They told me go do something instead
Put this rap shit to bed
The day you finally make a name's the day that you'll end up dead
What you trying to prove
Who you trying to move
You don't know that you're only wasting your time do you
You're the needle in a haystack no one'll find
You should climb to the top of a building and see if you fly
And when you land on the pavement
You won't be able to say that the pain is unbearable
Cause you'll be bone marrow and blood
So that's what you want
So that's what you want
Okay
Throwing out the rhyme books
Rolling up the wire for the microphone and I look
Over to the mirror
Thinking bout the sweat that I smeared
On all the albums I made through the years and I fall

If I leave
Would you miss me tomorrow, would you be
A little upset if I don't come home
If you got that call in the middle of the night that I took my life
I've tried to overcome it all but I can't
I can't, I can't

I'm staring at my rhyme book, like it's wasted paper
In the closest it goes, maybe I'll read it later
Shoulda been a doctor, shoulda been a lawyer
Shoulda been something different
Shoulda went out the house and found a wife
I always wanted children
God dammit man
Gonna need ya to simmer down
I wish things could be different now
I've tried so hard to hold on
But you ran away, you gave up
Didn't get me a chance to say something
I've tried to overcome it all but I can't
