Why are people so mean to unhappy people
Why are unhappy people hiding in their unhappiness?
Why am I so unhappy?
The truth is
I can't afford the life that I want
The life that I want is not that grandiose.
I just want to be able to live.
Thats all.

Birthday
03:26
|

A day to celebrate
Your life and your worth
Get yourself drunk
And wake in the dirt
Trapped by my vices
Committed many crimes
I’ve done it too many times
I’m falling behind
Running from my dreams
Killing my esteem
I know the things I want
And hate the things I lust
Tend to hate the chase
I think I’ll give up
Finally I can see
Finally I can breathe
Give myself a chance
To feel love again
It’s like being born
But you continue where you left
Finally I can see
Finally I can breathe
Change
Is good
Change for myself
Change is good
Change for myself
Change is good
For my own health

Do I make you proud
When you look down
From heaven above
Where the trumpets sound
A year ago I saw your face
I held your body and your embrace
I always think about you
I always think about you
My father you taught something
Your spirit, your soul, your everything
Your final breath
You held my hand
You said it was over
In your fragile state
You were ready for the pearly gates
And God opened his arms to see your face
I always think about you
I always think about you
My father you taught something
Your spirit, your soul, your everything
I’ll remember
Memories
Things you told me
In my dreams
I’ll remember
Your old stories
Wisdom you passed
For
History
I always think about you
I always think about you

Facing Myself
03:03
|

No longer afraid of killing myself
Think I learned to face the fear
My body is not a prison
It’s a place where I reflect
No longer dead
No longer dead
It’s the truth and the lie
No longer an alibi
We could be confused
But we’ll learn what to do
I'll find my way out
Ill find my way out
Remembering the days
When everything felt wrong
Self-doubt on my mind
Anxiety cripples time
Now I am free
Happy as I can be
I am no longer trapped
No longer crying
It’s the truth and the lie
No longer an alibi
We could be confused
But we’ll learn what to do
I'll find my way out
I'll find my way out
I remember when things were hard
I remember when I couldn’t see the light
Sometimes I am sad
Sometimes I am happy
But as long as I bounce back
I will face myself

Doctors says I'm sick
But I can’t afford the medicine
Haven't seen therapist
And head is caving in
Oh I'm weak
But you keep me
No, I don’t you to hurt me
Politics won’t let me live and my life won't let me live
I am living for my health
And it feels like I'm in hell
I am working for my wealth
But I have no time for health
Do you feel convicted
Because the people you protect
Are sickly
No one likes your system
Cuz everyone is a victim
I am living for my health
And it feels like I'm in hell
I am working for my wealth
But I have no time for health
We Could Die Today

Missing Out
01:51
|

I feel like I've got no best friend
Cuz everyone is one step ahead of me
I'm waiting for myself to finally heal
Its seems that pain has kept me
From love thats real
I'm waiting for my pity to leave my heart
I think it's sadness that keeps me
Falling apart
It's times like these
I feel like I'm missing out
It's times like these
I feel like I'm missing out

Check your privilege
And your self directed image
Taking advantage isn’t fine
Your money , your clothes
Your booze and your bros
Your perspective is as closed
As your mind
Don’t tell me that
Everything is fine
When everything is not fine
Don’t tell me that
Everything is right
When nothing is
Ever alright
You know nothing of struggle
In your fiscal bubble
Food in your mouth
The roof on your head
You think its organic
When its really man made
You have a healthy
And money to spend
You live with the blind
And the selfish minded ten
I don’t really care
What you have to say

College Boy wants to kill himself
Too many books to read
Too much pressure on his own direction
Wants to give up hope
So its 4 am
And it’s time to die
No one more reasons to live
He is lost
But he will find himself
He is lost
But he will get some help
He is lost
But he will find himself
He is lost
But he will get some help
Trapped inside
And falling behind
Drinking away his fears
Emotions wry and wants to give up
Drinks his pain out of solo cups
He’s lost every sense of self
Hes walking to doors of hell
School is hard
And he hangs himself
Skips his therapy
And gets good grades
But on the inside
It still feels dead
He believes in second chances
He believes in finding new friends

No Safe Space for Me
02:08

They said punk was a place
For me to be
But they label me
As a POC
I don’t feel safe
I don’t feel right
I guess I am tokenized
Don’t call me out
On my race
It’s not fair….
To judge me
I enter the room
And they make a rumor
Call me out
How fucking toxic
They don’t know me
But they don’t like me
Cuz I am black
Don’t hate me
Cuz I’m different
It’s not fair
To hate me
They talk about inclusion
But its their illusion
No one really likes me
But they don’t have reason
Talkin shit on normies
But say your open minded
I think they are assholes
In denial
Don’t make it hard
For everyone
It’s not fair
To judge me…

Nonsense

What do you want me from me baby
Why is everything crazy
You trap me in your expectations
I guess that’s why there’s hate
You always seem so angry
Do you ever wanna be happy
You seem so miserable , I think your cynical
That’s why we won’t relate
I won't understand
Your mother pays your bills
And daddy buys your make up
But you paint your lips black
What is up with that?
You say that you’re so lonely
But you have 8 roommates
I don’t like the way you say things
Because all of it is fake
I don't understand
You’re the child of republicans
You hate to be an American
But you don’t have any black friends
No you don’t have any black friends
Lets talk about your justice
Because you never had injustice
Your sense of equality
Is as blind as your money

You Said
02:29

Look at my eyes
Can you see me
You say I matter
But you treat me
Like I am dead
When the blue
Scream hands up
I say don’t shoot me
Please don’t shoot me
But you’ll do nothing
You said
That you would
You say you’re inclusive
But no one looks
Like me
You said you were open
But your mind is closed
Like them
Your love is a lie
And so are all your friends
You said
That you would
Treat me like your best friends
Not another option
Treat me like a human
Not an excuse to pretend
I know you don’t like me
Because you don’t like them
You said that black lives matter
But I don’t really matter ( x2)
You said
That you would

Never Tried
03:14

You think you did your part
When you shared it on a screen
Your laziness is weak
It's like you make fun of me
You’re a wreck
You’re a wrench
Your excuses are a lie
That’s when you said you would
Do something
But your action shows
That you do nothing
You speak words you don't preach
But you don’t walk the walk
Talk the talk
You’re a damn hypocrite
Cuz you never tried
You never tried
For me
You talk about what side
You’re on
But your action never shows
I’d really like to know
I’d really like to know
That’s when you said you would do something
But your action shows
That you do nothing
Let me ask you a question
Will you ever stand for justice
Or will you sit right back
Behind the wheel and do nothing
