'Cause I was broken
Maybe time heals all the wounds
But not emotions
And I didn't mean to say the things
I said when I was young
All these regrets [?]
They keep me up
You know, I never would've guessed the life rappin' would bring
When it was somethin' on the side that I casually did
[?] people in this world won't be happy you win
And tall poppy syndrome is an actual thing
And that spotlight's bringin' me a different breed of hate
I didn't do well when you picture me in fame
There's been moments of happiness when in between the shame
That I'm overthinking everything I didn't mean to say
Any time you saw me on live TV
Was after five VBs and the lines we need
To keep us goin' to the mornin' where we sign CDs
And have the energy to stay up at the heights we reach
Yo, I had to make sure you could never know the real me
Daily getaways, it was a mask I had
I wanna start from scratch but I can't go back
So stop judgin' from the past I had, because
'Cause I was broken
Maybe time heals all the wounds
But not emotions
And I didn't mean to say the things
I said when I was young
All these regrets [?]
They keep me up
Yeah
For a moment, the stars were all so aligned
Lookin' back at it now, man, it blows my mind
Went from playing to nobody at an open mic
To shows to like five thousand nearly overnight
It's funny when shit begins to blow
Suddenly all these people start hittin' up your phone
The same ones who used to think it was a joke
Are now beggin' for some tickets to a show
Started getting everything I ever desired
Instead of content, it left me feelin' empty inside
I was finally a success in the eyes
Of the world, but in mine, I was ready to die
And I saw the devil in my thoughts
My mind was in bed with a dark force
I can't tell you how negative life got
While I was caught in a time warp, fast forward
And I think I got used to pain, takin' anything man
I just used to escape till I was blue in the face
Then out of nowhere, someone came along
And stopped me from losin' my way
I owe it all to the king of kings and the miracle He did within
So any glory that I get now, I just give to Him
It made me change how I'm livin' and I pray
He'll forgive me for my biggest sins
'Cause I was broken
Maybe time heals all the wounds
But not emotions
And I didn't mean to say the things
I said when I was young
All these regrets [?]
They keep me up
