Chieftaine - My Life lyrics

Verse 1: When I've finally impressed, why do I feel depressed? I hope that it'll work out, but too much weight is on my chest So now I'm waiting, for people that aren't here Camouflage with the crowd gettin swallowed by my peers I fell asleep on life lessons, will I ever really learn? Pro at pointing out my cons, when they shouldn't be concerned I love love, but she thinks that I'm a loser Life is goin too fast for a cheap little cruiser I'm outta control, and life is such a trip Problems got their foot out, but I've already slipped When I try to be slick, my hands start to lose grip Children's Story ends sad when my life falls rick Somebody show me the ropes, I need a quick escape I'll leave this hole of abjection, grab my pair of Ice Skates I'm addicted to depression, this is a relapse Working on a trust salary, no chance to relax But I've been taking days off without manager confrontation Claiming that my heart is hurting so I need some compensation Chorus: Ya'll say I'm deaf, When I'm doin the Mos But it's hard to see the good I do when I'm a ghost I used to walk through depression, these never ending halls But I decided to give up, and tried to hide in the walls They say I'm ungrateful, But I'm really unfaithful Cuz I know that in the end, my fate is gonna end fatal Put my soul on the market and it was quickly sold Last phone call to God but I'm still on hold Verse 2: Somehow, after all I've made it here luckily I'm no longer fitting in like a wet puzzle piece I'm sick of the pain, change is way over-due And this cell wall of depression is too thick to get through I try to hold it in, just until my atom splits And I blow my composure all over simple ticks Do you hear what I'm saying? Life, I've got no gain & my heart is feeling broke when I've got no change A normal kid with my mentality would smoke to remain tame Instead I use my rhymes to maintain a sane brain I dropped my first mixtape to end this nightmare So I'm brawlin for my dreams but you don't fight fair Been down for so long, forgot how to be proud Ya'll focus on my flaws, so I follow the crowd Calling heaven in a tunnel so I lack reception God is drafting soldiers and I'm not in the selection..
