Vent explicit - Lyrics 26/10/13 

I cant believe I wrote this two years ago, one of the most toughest times of my life, now reflecting back on it in 2015 it was probably one of the best ways I can express myself and that's thru music. so im gonna share it. 

Part1:

Uh yeah, true stories! She wrote to tell me telling its help she needs, she said that she cry's every night and shes weak, I told her that she needs to try and breathe she said I cant cope anymore, now I just bleed. I had a bad time these few years, lost some friends and shared some tears. I cant cope when things get messed up I try to move on but I always get stuck. Yet again I fall into the same mistakes but it feels so safe I find a release, but I guess you would never understand when you have that feeling when a knife is in your hand.

Part2: 

In high school everyone so opinionated, looking back that's what one thing I fucking hated. When I knew I had a gift that took time no one gave me a chance to make mine, So all your haters keep Living in your envy, just know that you could end me. Truth be told I don't need support to hold up a dream, all I need is for myself to believe. we can see the world at a different angle, I know im not perfect but in the end, well what can we do. Just be real and hope that your words start to come true so me rapping, it sounded despicable. But my dream is that my voice becomes unforgettable.

Part3: 

How could you understand what a dream is suppose to feel like. Tell people what to do and say whats wrong and right, loving my life, nothing to trade. See my music isn't born, my music made many people do it because they wanna get paid. Maybe get some boy who life just needs to be saved, A burning addiction to the game, Yet I aint got a name but for love of the beat I can make that change. Uh yeah what do you see when you see me? I can cry a thousand tears but one dream isn't enough! So me being here and not taking my life when times got tough, cause this pain is real!. All the kids in my class would laugh at me, too be honest that ripped out the heart of me. I cant change the past its apart of me, but I aint the same and I know its hard to see.
