Help Myself - Intellectual

[Verse 1: il Westo]

Tell me how your day was

Did you do what you wanted?

Were the obstacles too hard?

Did you finish what you started?

Did you follow your heart?

Or keep it guarded?

Did you aim low of the zone?

And feel alone and bombarded

In a sea of happy boys and girls on the playground

Crowds echos of laughter, you're hurting so loud

And no one can hear the sounds

Neck deep, about to drown

Ship wreck is going down

You keep it together anyhow

Maybe we're the same

I complain about my pain too

What I feel in my brain

Would make me go insane too

I explain the strain so I maintain

The tiny grain of sane that still remains

Unshackle the chains, fly like airplanes

Above the rain, blood flowing through my veins

My mind like a subway, underground train of thought

Behind but like someday my sounds'll attain what I sought

You can't buy peace of mind, but you can mind peace

You can't buy love, but you can give it out for free

You can't buy xp, but you learn in this reality

So I'll show how I grow through my loco flow

Sub zero, hollow days follow

Swallowed by snow, don't know if I'll make it to the day

After tomorrow, follow my heart till it's wits end

Just to let 'em know, stare out the window

Throw out my key woes to deny dirty blows to protect my ego

Sometimes the foe is too whoa, mio amico

At times you gotta know when to let it go

At times you gotta be your own hero

Keep your ambitions higher than a skyscraper

Bigger than an elephant, and fierce like a gator

Because no can save you like yourself

So sometimes you just gotta be your own savior
