[Intro]

Why you mad at me?

I've been fallin' backwards, runnin' barefoot through the leaves

Ayy

La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da, la-da-da


[Verse]

Hey you

Why you mad at me?

I've been fallin' backwards, runnin' barefoot through the leaves

I could bite my tongue until I really gotta leave

If the issue isn't settled, why you settlin' for me?

Hey you

What you wanna be?

I remember back when I was sleeping with no sheets

Back when we were struggling off eighty-nine a week

When the habits I possessed was partially possessing me

Whеn the root of all my problems disappearеd inside the green

And I was acting like I gave a fuck, but no one fucked with me

When the busses to the 6 were all I had just to be free

I got a passport for that bitch, but now I travel overseas

Yeah, it's been a couple years, but honestly, it's all I see

When I close my eyes and reminisce, this shit is just a dream

Guess I really overcame a lot and now I've come to see

All the work I've put into it paying off by twenty-three

Thought I'd never live to tell, but now I'm tellin' how it be

When you overcome the obstacles and turn into a G

You could A. run for cover, are you ready for the heat?

Self-destruct until I feel like anyone but me

You could be anything that you desire, what you seek?

I've been plotting on this shit for years since I was seventeen

Never felt like I could do it, the depression come in sweeps

I put my headphones on and spit some shit until I fall asleep

Back in 2017, I plotted out my death

Tied a noose inside my closet, drew a target on my chest

If you think this shit's a gimmick, you can put it to the test

Check my browser history for all the answers, be my guest

Googled how to kill myself, but every option involved pain

Every forum full of isolated kids that feel the same

Saying they would end their lives in hopes of ridding all the shame

It's much easier to talk about when no one knows your name

It's hilarious how motherfuckers profit off an act

You ain't ever put the blade against your skin and that's a fact

You're bewildered by the concept of a struggle so you cap

Yeah, my eyes are fixed upon you and I'm ready to attack


[Outro]

Yeah, guess this is a wrap

Fuck you and your homies, all the shit you do is whack

This ain't no specific diss, it's simply a smack

In the face of all these influencers actin' like they sad

(La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da, la-da-da-da)

(La-da-da-da, la-da-da-da, la-da-da)
