| my goal as an artist
is to show you where my heart is
so that when my soul leaves
you can see where i've lived
see where i've breathed
see what i've known
see through my eyes
see the truth i've proved
through everyones lies
my goal as a man
is to be what i believe
so you can see who i am
see all my pain
see all my struggle
and see that my brain
percevered till i gained
till my battle was fought
till the war has been one
ill continue spittin poetry
till kingdome has come
i continue you makin music
so my talents aint useless
ill continue to question
always be restless
always push forward
so that you may see
through me
all that you can be
for yourself
for the world
kuz together,
we
can
make
a change | | |

if you dont then go here:

the song is called "if i was anything"
and you better damn well go listen to it
~~~~~~
yes... yes... i put my life to words again --
chorus:
if anything but me maybe then i'd be set free
maybe then i'd see what others see
but im always gonna b-e me
and failure just seems to be
party of my ugly history... so you see
im always gonna b-e me
stuck in this misery
(verse 1)
ill be honest there are too many days
when i wonder if the work is worth the pay
if its worth the sacrifice to stay
in a world where criminals and fools can play
im just a product of past misfortune
trynna get the world to bounce to my tune
they all suckered by the devils dance way to soon
so many nights i spilled tears alone in my room
lights out but music on in my tomb
you can smell the death because i crave it so bad
i see my friends are always down and its so sad
wishing away the lives that they have
(verse 2)
my lifes broke why do i even try to fix it
i cant even put a smile on so you and me can kick it
i try to separate from the fake kuz fake is all me
every hand shake high five means nothing
and i wanna run away i wanna escape
all the hate in this place i dont wanna see another face
tell me to hold on to stay strong
you so dumb and so wrong
i cant take much more thats right
im so gone so long to this silly cycle
so long head trips and silly fake smiles
put my shoes on and try and walk another mile
step into my life see all that i defile
(verse 3)
the pressure is buildin its not a matter of able
its wether or not i have the will and im not stable
it wont take much to sever the cable
the chord whatever
im trynna get myself to just keep it together
trynna get to the better bogged down by the weather
and the thought of forever is so damn lonely
people claim the love me but they dont know me
all they seen is this image that i've fed em for years
they havent seen the anger agnst and the tears
they only know what i've done they cant tell me the truth
the future aint predictable theres positively no proof
yeah...... sigh... whatever
dont steal my lyrics or ill hunt you down and feed you shit you dont wanna eat
not that theres... any kinda shit you would wanna eat but | | |
| she smiled so i told her happiness never lasts
she cried and that inspired me to point and laugh
theres no love only sorrow
good things will bite you in the ass
scars make sure that we remember the horrors of our past | | |
