Barely Hanging On
Problematic
3:39You know Mental Health is nothing to joke about, man I struggle with this, on the daily Shit, everyday is Angel versus Demon, in my head, huh You know what the funny thing is, man? Those who have never actually suffered They can never truly understand Look These memories are hauntin', ever since a little kid Mischievous, I was, and I cannot outrun the things I did I'd roam the halls, headphones in, so incompetent No sense of my belonging, was the opposite of sobering I had no friends, no saving grace, when I was down, and at my lowest Acne on my face, it made me question if I'm even growin' Started smokin' marijuana, started drinkin' out the bottle Hangin' out with all the wrong people, now in desperado These suicidal tendencies, are comin' back, again I swear that if it catches up, no second chance be happenin' I lived my life, a people pleaser, now I'm dealin' with this reaper Got my demons latchin' on, so tightly, I can't fight 'em, neither Sounds to me, you're simply weak And, no one lends a helpin' hand Your family is disgraced wit' you It's best that you abandon them Tell me what you mean by that? I gave it all I fuckin' can But you know, it's too late, and nothin's ever gonna change, my friend Your sappy songs, it says a lot, why don't you practice what you preach? You give advice, but never take it? Hypocritical, I think Who are you to come, and judge, actin' like you truly know me? Just a voice inside my head, I move like Obi Wan Kenobi Still lost, tryna find myself Lookin' in that mirror Like, who am I, I, I? I'm tired of the pain So tired of the games I just wanna be alright No lie, yie, yie Still fightin' Oh-ohh I'm survivin', in this cold One thing that I know, these demons They will never take my soul Your step dad was abusive Know you wanna beat his ass I will not resort to violence Even though, despite the fact Your father left, when you were two Before you ever really knew him No wonder, you're tramatized Your childhood was fuckin' ruined Still, you gotta toke at night To calm your nerves, or ease your mind I'm caught up, in rotation Like the earth, in orbit, all the time You must admit, you're never fine But, I think, I'm one of a kind And I think, I'ma make it through You sure on that? I can't decide I found my purpose, when I write I'm healin' lives, up on the mic I bend, but I won't break I got my faith, and God is on my side Lets be honest, brutally Say it, with transparency You don't wanna rap no more This burden, bringin' agony And, when you pass away You'll get your ten seconds of fame Your name will finally reach the masses But, won't be here to obtain It's so sad, and such a shame Must forgot, I'm irreplaceable My music will live on When I'm gone, not debatable Still lost, tryna find myself Lookin' in that mirror Like, who am I, I, I? I'm tired of the pain So tired of the games I just wanna be alright No lie, yie, yie Still fightin' Oh-ohh I'm survivin', in this cold One thing that I know, these demons They might actually take my soul
