Not the right way, these paths lead to highways
Cross the river past the mountains, that's where I stay
Every time she feel a shiver that's from my pain
Toxic waste feel it dripping through my veins
I know it gets hard when the dark hit
When it's late and thinking suicide is
Everyday feeling less of all the brightness
Nightmares keep me locked inside my eyelids

I seen the pain from heartaches to heartbreaks
My canvas is nothing but just some dark paint
Mix it in with red, it turns to my shame
I'm in the business so you know I get a lot of hate
Nothing changing the fact, I'm living my way
Ain't no faking when you born with all this greatness
I just hope my momma see it when I finally make it famous
When I finally make it famous

Not the right way, these paths lead to highways
Cross the river past the mountains, that's where I stay
Every time she feel a shiver that's from my pain
Toxic waste feel it dripping through my veins
I know it gets hard when the dark hit
When it's late and thinking suicide is
Everyday feeling less of all the brightness
Nightmares keep me locked inside my eyelids

She always tripping bout some shit that I would never do
Baby yeah we got some problems, everybody do
It's a story baby come and sit right by the booth
Everybody wants some normalcy yeah I'm in that too
I'm dodging traffic like I'm faded but I'm jaded
From the sunlight shining brightly on the pavement yeah I made it
I'm kind of famous but it's hardly entertaining
When these acquaintances will not stop complaining damn...

Not the right way, these paths lead to highways
Cross the river past the mountains, that's where I stay
Every time she feel a shiver that's from my pain
Toxic waste feel it dripping through my veins
I know it gets hard when the dark hit
When it's late and thinking suicide is
Everyday feeling less of all the brightness
Nightmares keep me locked inside my eyelids
