[Verse 1: Rhyman] This is the story of John-no mom, no sis-no bruv, no kids No dad showing him, only sh**-living in a home, all alone Coldness, flowing in-flowing through, lingering in the corner Sitting on his wardrobe, thinking what he should do with his time Living in extortion, by giving him a portion, you'd give his life a notion People just ignore him-'till he f**ing blows it 'Till he's so depressed-only road inject-His only goal forget What happened over him so he doesn't know better than to do d** Instead of spitting lines he's sniffing them-two times a day- It becomes two times an hour What's there to lose when you have no power? Don't have a voice to express how sour Your life is like this-it's your final hour There's no help from God-so he don't pray a lot He was dying on his own and no one gave a f** So he didn't give a f** back Took a needle stuck it in his arm hoping it would stop that Pain and pressure, thought it made him fresher It's insane to think-he could have made it better Then he overdosed and just laid on the floor Because no one even missed him, not afraid he was gone... [Hook:] I know there's something in the wake of your smile I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea You've built a love but that love falls apart Your little piece of heaven turns too dark
Listen to your heart... [Verse 2: Rhyman] This is the story of Liz, loves her boys to bits Her only real ambition is to support her kids Raising them with no dad, no grandmother She would do anything to stop that suffer' But she really doesn't know what to tell the boys Why did he leave them? He never lost his poise What's the black eye for? And the bruises on her legs She tells them she's clumsy, keeps falling down the stairs The kids are small so they believe their mom Seems like lies are the only thing she's leaning on Because she's got no help, no one wants to support her She's about to melt, her game's almost over She needs to find something to erase all the stress Realized that life's a game, she needs to play it like chess It's amazing the depth-of sh** people are fallin' in Up to their neck- it's sick- almost swallowin' Take a second to think, do you cherish your life? Or take it all for granted? Your marriage, your wife? It's easy to say you are happy, you are loved Leaning back on a chair, sipping on a bud But thinking hard, there's so many like Liz All they really want is a light so they can live But they never really get it because they're stuck in that sh** And when all that hope is gone, she just slits up her wrists She's gone...
