SXMPLELIFE - The Escape lyrics

[Verse 1] It's all on me ‘Cause can't nobody tell me who am I gon' be Just want my girl to tell me that she ain't gon leave Then I'mma tell the world that they all gon see I promise I'm property of the dreamers Everyone who hated is gon swear that they want to be us And everything is gon be just...fine, can you buy me peace of mind? Honestly, I'm tryna live, lately I ain't had the time I'm just going through the motions, forsaking those who get closest ‘Cause to know me ain't to love me, to know me's to know I'm hopeless It's all wrong, me and my n***as on the grind Til we all on, terrified I'll be left behind Put my middle fingers in the air, tryna find the strength to care You can k** me now if I'll never be a millionaire And I know it hurts her heart when I say this sh** I'm probably close to breaking it, baby I'm scared of making it [Hook: Tor Miller] All this time I've spent One straight line as the Days go by Live to die Oh why, am I So content with just getting by [Verse 2: Thewz] It's all on me ‘Cause I can't be the reason that my fam don't eat Don't want to see a day me and my girl don't speak But lately I've been stressed, almost left last week I feel like I'm more confused than I've ever been scared to go to bed ‘cause then These nightmares of the come up just start f**ing with my head again They told me tell my story, well I'm broke All my friends trying coke and I don't know when this will ever end I swore I'd be the one to do it That I'd always write my songs for everyone going through it But somewhere in between chasing dreams, saving teens I fell asleep on my job and woke up at 19 Like f** it, I'm almost 20 and barely have any money Watching my peers make millions and scared there ain't nothing for me I know that I was born to turn to dust like everybody else But I can't spend that time in between sitting on the shelf
