[Intro: JT Kidd]
Everyday I used to wonder why, all these bad things are happening to me
But then I look around and realize that, it's a cold world
And I have to find my place in the middle of all this madness
But I can't know my path, without knowing my past
[Verse 1]
It's just a bunch of revelations
Trials and tribulations
Slandering allegations
And oppressive situations
Congregations, put limitations, on these generations
To live up to regulations, expectations, and reputations
We have different destinations, I make my own obligations
It's bunch of confrontations, my whole life is complications
How can I compete when I can't even make it to the finish line?
So little time, but so much in my mind
I was a loner, living up to a persona
Actually hoping that the end could come sooner
Actually hoping I fall in a coma
Thinking "If when they see you in that bed would they hold ya"
If you died, would they mourn ya
Or would they just disowned ya
I can't afford to think any longer
Cause every single night this world gets colder
(Cause there's no one I could trust)
[Hook]
There's no one I could trust, It makes me sick to my guts (yuck)
I just want to give up, through the dust, my middle fingers up, like what? (What?)
I guess I asked for rain (rain)
I guess I asked for pain (pain)
But I only asked for change, and I guess that's what trashed my brain
It's a
(Cold world)
In the middle of your misery
(Cold world)
Where d**h is your strongest memory
(Cold world)
Where everything is about surviving
When you open your eyelids, you wish you were dying, Lord, I'm trying, uh
[Verse 2]
The pain and the agony
Is rapidly, stabbing me
It seems gradually
Everyone is turning their backs at me
It seems everybody in the world wanna break me
It seems like nobody in the world really wanna save me
Uh, It's feeling deep, cause when I speak, it's pointless cause my whole life is a soliloquy
Step in my shoes you won't last ten feet
Cause you'll probably have a ticket-out within reach
It's funny, these dummies, try to take from me
The girl or money, but listen sunny, I am hungry
I hate life in a world that's bummy, cold and never sunny
I been Romeo and Clyde but Juliet and Bonnie, didn't want me (Uh)
They say be the man that's bigger
But it's hard because the person you'll take the bullet for is the same one behind the trigger
Y'all were gone when I was thinking who am I
Where the hell where y'all when I was thinking of suicide
Living in this world, thinking I'll be a fool to try
Just wondering if I died who would cry
There's parasites in my skin
Is there only paradise in a sin?
Why paralyze and then grin!?
WHY TERRORIZE THEN TEND!!??
So forget that, Imma go harder
If I had to Imma be a martyr
To prove that we all are
Stars of
The market
We set our own markers
Regardless of what everyone thought of
And I think Imma start winning, I figure my life is worth living (figure my life is worth living)
And Lord if you're forgiving, please forgive me of my sinning
It's just there's no one I could trust
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
In this cold world, an umbrella, doesn't stop the rain
In this cold world, lots of cheddar, doesn't stop the pain
I care about the people, I don't need a Grammy
And for those who hate me though, just recognize I got family
If you real to me you my fam, y'all my brothers and sisters
I'm trying to be a man, living by these scriptures
So take out your cam, and take a picture
Cause when things hit the fan, these moments will die with ya
