High functioning pain
I say I'm straight but you should tell I ain't
Going through some things I hope I elevate
All my dogs I gotta meditate
And if you telling me you love me
You better stay on everything
High functioning pain
Hope you can see me 'cause I'm heartbroke
Don't come and leave me at a crossroads
I need you here, I need you to care
When I'm not acting like myself baby I need you aware
Baby be soft spoke

Tragedy after tragedy
Life changing dramatically
First I lost Carl then it was Anthony
This life thing ain't going nothing like I planned it'll be
And when I make it to that other side just hold a hand for me
Don't even think I really know what love is
Grew up with parents who didn't even let me hug them
Mama didn't do too much of that, never said she loved me
And that just led me straight outside, I end thugging
I just need somebody who cares for me
Be my soul, be my therapy
Be my eyes, give me some clarity
This life thing is overbearing me

High functioning pain
I say I'm straight but you should tell I ain't
Going through some things I hope I elevate
All my dogs I gotta meditate
And if you telling me you love me
You better stay on everything
High functioning pain
Hope you can see me 'cause I'm heartbroke
Don't come and leave me at a crossroads
I need you here, I need you to care
When I'm not acting like myself baby I need you aware
Baby be soft spoke

Be soft spoke
Baby be soft spoke
