Did You Know

Did you know that I got to fight fam

Every night just to keep this dream alive?

Bombay brown boy trapped inside the body of a white

Looking for faith, no believer in sight

Peer pressure stunted my growth and my height

Fist and a cupboard got in a fight

Left-brain, Hook-right

Mom I know you want a CEO, should have thought about that before you bought a whole CD row

You don't know so I don't blame you. (Don't blame you)

And dad I know you think that I'm childish bro you can't see me grow but I can't just feign you

We can't be the same dude

You don't know so I don't blame you

And I know all my friends think that I'm gonna fail

Hit the hammer to the nail

Blinded by my thoughts should I send you Braille-mail ?

You can send me hate mail

But I'ma keep fighting till my chest turns red, face turns pale

Everybody got a story this is my only tale

Everybody got a story this is my holy grail (My holy grail)

System always hated me and I hated society

I hated sobriety, I hated propriety

You can't even try to see the demons inside of me

Ironic how the people view my heavy words lightly

Ma and Pa I'm sorry

Shit is not a hobby

Damned if I work in an office or a lobby

Grammy, Billboard nominee

Old Love lives like a zombie

Only felt lust when she saw me

Dumped the devil in my life

Fight the devil in my mind

Then I pray to a God (Oh God) that I can't even find

Dream and logic, I finally picked a side

Thinking lately may not work out

But you know I tried

Turning 18 he might lend me the Merc now

But I'm not a spoilt child

So I try and I stick to the Hyundai

Grew wise like a Banzai

Call it love? (Bitch) I call it a Ponzi

You didn't know? Time to get your mind right

Screw turning the blind eye

Deep down I'm kind of a kind guy

Got stepped over in hindsight

So I kill the kind guy

Drink up cyanide

Chug infinite

Feelings on a page you can see it when I hand write

Addicted to the rage and the darkness running from the lime light

At Least until the times right

Spark this fire in my eye flame in my heart grades fell apart

Fake another sigh

Fake over confidence every single time I'm shy

I never read lines you wonder, "Why man?"

I prefer to write them

Demons, hide them

Drugs, don't try them

Always stay clean not messy we don't want another

Winehouse, Cobain, Prince, Hendrix, Joplin, Presley

God blessed me, money, family, happy granny

Took her back

Second grand to heart attack

Called God twice, didn't text me back

Heart just cracked

Matter fact

Faith has lacked

Since that day my faith has lacked (x2)

Grown up now I'm a shark in a lake, always ponder

Life's give and take move onward

Do what you wanna do

Be what you wanna be

1 big journey

C'est la vie
