Nathan Johnson - Im depressed
21
Copied!

Yeah
I mess with this sample man
I mess with it heavy
The hardest part about livin' is guessin' when it ends
Once it begins you're tossed in with no direction
Just a whim and some innocence, Feel as if there's no protection
Like a baby turtle blindly gettin' tossed in the ocean
The world is open with many dangers and ways of copin'
They give you hope and just snatch it away and leave you broken
You go from rollin' in leaves homie, to simply rollin'
Hard to focus, feelin' like an outsider
Center of attention, but deep inside you're simply tired
Tired of runnin' away, but you weren't born a fighter
That ain't the way you was raised, you weren't born a flighter
Yet you feel as if you was built for something higher
Useta, pretend with friends that we was fighting battles
Who woulda thought that to this day, I was still in shackles
Tryna tackle these shadows the farther I travel
Just shows me what hassle it is to bite into that apple
Grasp the fruits of my labor, no wonder why I'm failin'
Follow in the footsteps of what caused this ailing
Adam and Eve from them I'm conceived, now im blazing
Prayin' to bless whatever life remaining
I'm depressed
(Don't run away be strong)
(Don't run away be strong)
(Don't run away be strong)
(Kenneth English)
My darkest days become my brightest of nights
(My brightest of nights)
My heartless ways stem from my quietest fights
(My quietest fights)
I learned to speak with my actions, but always move in silence
Nobody covering ya back end, plus we never knew of guidance
Never spoke outta pocket and kept my thoughts to myself
'Cause if they money where they mouth is they never talking wealth
Momma warned me be humble, no truer words been spoken
'Cause everything you build crumbles if you the one who's chosen
Laying up wonderin' how I'm gon make it
Never admit that I'm stressed, if I ain't happy I'mma fake it
'Cause, I'm too scared to lose my loved ones I'd never admit it
If I lost my family, I'd lose my will fight to the finish
Living hypocrite, a faker or coward
Too afraid to take my life but wanna die every hour
You ever been afraid to speak but wanna cry to the masses?
Stuck between drop outta school and be in all of yo classes?
Simply tryna forge a path but you get caught at a rock
Just tryna muster up your strength but you been through a lot
Voices tell me everyday that I shouldn't repress
But there's some things thatchu never confess, but I digress
Cause im depressed
