[Intro]

It's Joey

Look

Saca on the beat


[Verse 1]

I was told from a young age that I need to keep to myself

Put my feelings on the highest shelf

Out of reach from who try'na help

Never let nobody in or out of my health

I was told from a young age keep the doors closed

Don't let nobody walk up on this foreclosed

And all I did is walk around in em torn clothes

Rich kids speak another language like it's Morse Code

I was told from a young age "you'll never be shit"

But that don't mean shit

Cause I could just fuck around and leave quick

Why? Cause I don't need this

I always knew from a young age I'd never fit in

Why? Cause I'm so diffеrent?

Always seen as the rebеl and the misfit

Wanna take myself to the level outta distance

But I was told from a young age "shut the fuck up"

I'll never shut up

In addition, all that pressure starts to sum up

And all I really really wanted was some loved ones

And all I really wanted was just someone

Ain't a cutter but my heart and brain was cut up

And I'm lucky I never picked another drug up

Cause I might be hung up

And I'm lucky that I never picked a gun up

Cause I might be rung up

For now it's walk in the store my last dollars gettin' rung up

But I ain't done cause


[Chorus]

Cause I ain't broken

And I ain't hopeless

I still got loads of faith and trust in myself

They don't understand why

And if the world is changing

And everybody hates me

I'ma still be and keep it real to myself

I swear that someday I'll fly

Cause I ain't broken

Nah I ain't broken


[Verse 2]

Look, okay

Nah I ain't broken

From a place you can't leave nothin' open

Cuz they done broke in

But even if the doors all closin'

It don't matter cause they done broke it

Broke the glass in

I seen people usin' lottos like they tokens

Hopin' to cash in

Puttin' all they scrambled eggs in one basket

Well now they things they carry round in one basket

And I admit sometimes I feel like I wanna be dead

But I can't afford the casket

Cause people and the time is the only thing passin'

Time dies, the past is locked back then

How many times I gotta say "if it only had been"

But shit happens

Man it's still really hard for me to move on

Feel like everything I do, shit, I do wrong

And my city looking like it's boutta lose some

Seen so many free tags, it's looking like some coupons

All these broken promises and sick prayers

Try'na go and find nirvana like the Six Prayers

Try'na keep some positivity like the Swiss flag

Try'na keep my head high when it gets bad

Man I really think life is try'na break my heart

But I'll still get back together when I break apart, cause


[Chorus]

Cause I ain't broken

And I ain't hopeless

I still got loads of faith and trust in myself

They don't understand why

And if the world is changing

And everybody hates me

I'ma still be me and keep it real to myself

I swear that someday I'll fly

Cause I ain't broken

Nah I ain't broken


[Outro]

I'm just misunderstood, they don't understand why

With beaten up wings but someday I'ma fly
