Damn Don't know where I should begin Guess I'll start off with my childhood and losing my friends From shots to prison cells, overdosing on pills Got me feelin like I never would escape from this hell And don't nobody be expecting nothing great from me They just assume I'm dumb and plot what they can take from me Now I drink I smoke On the edge so don't push me I'm not killer but baby I'm at the end of my rope What's the point of hope If holding on just makes it worse? What's the point of love? If everyone just wants to hurt each other daily I'm thinking that maybe Tryna stay sane the only thing that make me crazy and shady I hate the fact there's not another place that I can go I surf the web and get more jaded by the digital The novacane can't stop the pain it's metaphysical I'm prayin to my God You gotta let me know Tell me what you think about me They don't see the real me All I feel is emptiness Tell me what you think about me They don't see a damn thing All I feel is emptiness Well let me add it ain't easy cause I'm not rich They say the changes that I want are in the politics But they still label me and rate me off my skin tone Only show support from the comfort of their big homes But when my daughter gotta eat and my son gunned down while he bleeds I don't want hear these talks about beliefs and keeping peace Got me marching in the street and with my people and the heat We don't got the time to wait or have trust for the police Dark clouds overhead like a ball cap I gotta find a way to get it, I need all that I can't be broke forever living these slums I can't let my mamma die inside this gutter like no bum But I still don't understand why the news emasculate me Why the Christians wanna judge me Why the law will castrate me All the pillaging and raping And the kids inside the cages Dropping bombs on foreign nations How can I remain complacent? Tell me what you think about me They don't see the real me All I feel is emptiness Tell me what you think about me They don't see a damn thing All I feel is emptiness Tell me what you think about me (it ain't easy cause I'm not rich) They don't see the real me (changes that I want are in the politics) All I feel is emptiness Tell me what you think about me (so rate me off my skin tone) They don't see a damn thing All I feel is emptiness (from the comfort of their big homes) Tell me what you think about me (it ain't easy cause I'm not rich) They don't see the real me (changes that I want are in the politics) All I feel is emptiness Tell me what you think about me (so rate me off my skin tone) They don't see a damn thing All I feel is emptiness (from the comfort of their big homes)
