[verse] EMC

I remember when i didn't have a place to sleep

Looking back to when i didn't have no food to eat

My parents arguing i dont know how long i could take it

I be a coward if i broke down every situation

But i made it so could you, look at what they put me thru

Breathin in the living hell but i dont want no different shoes

These streets are cold come walk with me thru alaska

My mom left my dad so for 3 years they called me bastard

I was going thru its tough, i ain't never had enough

But it turned me to a young man that just dont give a fuck

Why they searching for the best high, throwing up the westside

Im stressin over here tryna figure how to get shit right

And ever since i lost my dog its getting hard to cope

But he goin' live thru me and imma make it for us both

My girls been telling me i ain't the same i know its true

But tell me where your head will be if your friend died in front of you

[Hook 2x] Ble$$

I dont wanna feel this pain no more

These blue skys dont feel the same no more

Im tryna guard it wanna bring me down

I swear they dont wanna see me smile

[verse] EMC

I shed a tear for every kid thats in a broken home

I put my fist up in the air for every soldier gone

Cause ever since they took my brother man my life been different

And plus my girl just left me cause she said im acting distant

But what the fuck do they expect from me? feeling so alone at home

I feel it especially with matilda right next me

Crying while i would listen to song the music would set me free

Write it down, J was telling me the pen was there to set me free

So i scribble my misery and it went down in history

Inspired people listening

I still had empty pockets, but i felt rich off life

If i could start from scratch then i'd relive it twice

We all deserve to serve a purpose then we pass away

If god would answer all my questions i stay there asking for days

And even though i never hear him i just know ill be okay

I told my sister its alright one day we both gon be okay

[Hook 2x] Ble$$

I dont wanna feel this pain no more

These blue skys dont feel the same no more

Im tryna guard it wanna bring me down

I swear they dont wanna see me smile
