[VERSE 1: Sto-ik The Poet]
Walkin' through the city, never felt so alone
Wanderin' under the moonlit sky with no place to call home
Nothin' but a head full of troubles, with an empty stomach to go along
No money in my wallet either but my Momma taught me to be strong
Starry skies above my head, solid concrete beneath my feet
Wishin' for a blanket and a pillow, so that I could peacefully sleep
Cussin' at myself again because I'm in way too deep
If life is a b**h, then I'm sitting in the front-row seat
Reminiscin' the past
All of the tears and the laughs
All of the years that have gone too fast in a flash
All of the peers that we lost in the last couple months that just pa**ed, with
All of the fear inside, so sincere, about losin' the ones we love so dear, but are still lucky enough to grasp
Somebody please tell me that the paranoia's natural
I'm just a poet, a regular person, a king searchin' for his queen and castle
Am I supposed to be afraid of d**h even though my soul is a time-capsule?
Nobody wants to go, but I guess I'll hold my breath, because they said that we have to
[HOOK: Sto-ik The Poet]
So
I wrote
I wrote this song for you, for you
I hope
I hope it gets ya through, ya through
From all of the pain
That follows my name
It's never gonna change the blood inside of my veins
It's true
So I wrote this song for you, for you
[VERSE 2: Sto-ik The Poet]
Yea
To whom it may concern:
For the ones that are soon to bloom and learn
Dedicated to: The wombs a**umed to loom for doom & burn
Another tomb of wounds to zoom for The Moon & turn
This is for you
For the ones that are against all odds
For the ones like me
That are sick of feelin' like they must've pissed off God
I just can't stand seein' the sight of my own heart
Ripped out of my chest & placed over the flames of a barbeque pit, on the tip of a shish-kebab rod
Cause that's all I got to give and that's a lot to offer
Before I'm taken off the grid, I just wanna live a little longer
And let the positivity balance out my daily battles with these deceitful monsters
Liftin' my spirit higher than the propeller of an Apache Helicopter
Cause I'm possibly a future father of a son, or maybe even a couple of daughters
Who knows, but hopefully the happiness doesn't have loopholes
It could turn into a tragedy if you're not prepared for the noose and used to havin' blue toes
Cause the truth, is quick to wrap around your throat and lock it's jaws like a blue-nose
When you're overdosing on the lies and choking on a spoonful
Where's the hand above the water makin' sure that you don't drown?
Nobody ever has your back when life is turnin' upside-down huh?
I know the feeling, and it's sad enough to put a frown on the face of clown
Like watchin' the tears of an angel impatiently waiting to grace the ground
Time is of the essence, especially when the days feel like seconds
Trapped in a daze and things don't seem to be too pleasant
But ultimately every moment is a blessin', so go ahead and use the pain of a broken-heart as a lesson
To build a stronger foundation within yourself and solidify your legacy an everlasting impression
