Trying - Intellectual

[Chorus]

Walk a long road with myself, no one by my side

Put out my hand and reach for help, but nobody saw my signs

Don't wan' wake up, everyday I been trying

I put my face inside my hoodie sleeves to stop all my crying

And I might say that I'm okay, but I hope you know that I'm lying

I might just succumb to my thoughts, I think I'm tired of trying, hm

In the spotlight and the lights, they best not dim

I done take so many L's, I think it's time for me to win

Feelings come out of my brain and start to crawl throughout my skin

Gotta wipe away my tears because they're fallin' off my chin, yeah

I'm finna never take no Ls

I don't like to talk to randoms so don't hit up on my cell, nah

You ain't ever seen this side of me, I'm comin' out my shell

If you talk to me, you better watch your tone, boy, do not yell, nah

Back to the basics, wake up and go to sleep

Don't know who's my friend, I don't know they even care for me

People always ditch me, I wonder when they're gonna leave

Hood over my head, but the wind is blowing all on me

Sticks and stones may break my bones

Don't need friends, better off alone

Leave my side, you can fuck off and go

Got some snakes in the grass, I think I need to mow

People say they ride or die, but then they stab you in your back and leave

And that's why I don't trust what niggas say, no, I cannot believe

And now you know why I keep my circle small, 'cause people lie to me

I'm finna watch out for all my brothers, go up finally

You a bitch, boy, I could give less, don't give a fuck

You was cappin' on the gang, so now we gotta come run up
