[Chorus]
Alone in my mind, I feel you breathing
I don't, don’t know why I feel this every night
I know you need time, that’s why you leaving
Paint me all your lies like I was ready to die
[Verse]
I got my start in this before they had ripped out my heart
But like cartilage, I couldn't feel from the start
Know it's obvious when you just sit where you are
In the audience, but what if you was the star?
And you are, so you gon' fly?
Or you just running and running from lies
Got you a hundred what happen I
Take my last breath and you ain't there to cry
Got me wondering why, why did I start it
To give in to fear? I was fearless when Cartеr
Was first on the scene and had drеams of a following
Way before everyone felt so intolerant
Way before everyone stared at they screens and they scream and they scream and they screaming some more
Way before every sat on they Ottomans
Plotting on Parliament grabbing they torch
Way before everyone lost all they love
Way before every system was corrupt
Way before they tried to raise all they prices in silence
'Cause they can't afford all they drugs
Looking up for a star can't get that
I had love in my heart, tryna get back
Told me I was a problem, then sit back
Guess we gon' see in the end
I'm never leaving again, I'm finna build it to rise
Then do it over again until the world feel alive
I got it all in my head, I'm tired of taking my time
I'll do this shit till I'm dead, a lion killing his pride
I feel the illest alive, I feel adrenaline pump
I think it might be the product of never having enough
Of never feeling that touch of never taking it back
Of living stuck in my head, I know I'm living with that
[Chorus]
Alone in my mind, I feel you breathing
I don't, don’t know why I feel this every night
I know you need time, that's why you leaving
Paint me all your lies like I was ready to die
