Bleed

Y'all could tie me down and then cut my neck
And then ask me why I'm bleeding
Telling me you got my back every time I'm stressed
And then change up with the seasons
Wondering why I'm mad when you take it back
And then never give me no reasons
Telling me sorry isn't gonna change the fact
When you cut me more that shit deepens (ugh)

Take a seat man, I'm preaching
Everybody out there gives you hell
Acting like they always believed in you
When they see you doing well
They all faking it, they deceiving you
Tryna benefit for they self
When you was down to the ground
No one was around
Tryna lend you no help no way

Okay, here's some perspective
I'm on a different side of the spectrum
I would be dreaming my peers would reject 'em
I would take hits simply tryna protect em

They didn't know they put me in depression
Daily I felt I would give to the pressure
I would just take all out in the sessions
Every night I would bring the aggression

Mama never raised no bitch, never take no shit
Just made those hits in silence
Telling me to give this up, homie listen up
I ain't ever gonna quit this fighting
Been a long road, but it never eroded me
Man I'm never gonna let that mileage (mileage)
Slow me down, better hold me down right now
I'm astounding them my shit timeless

I think I'm dying (think I'm dying)
They told me it gets better, they were lying (they were lying)
These walls are closing in, the pressure's rising (the pressure's rising)
I'm screaming but nobody hears the sirens (hears the sirens)
Nobody wanna save me from the world that I'm in (that I'm in)

Everybody out here always looking see-through (looking see-through)
Skeletons up in my closet's all I speak to (yeah all I speak to)
Y'all don't realize we all can be weak too? (Be weak too)
Everybody needs to know that I can bleed to

Y'all could cut me deep and then ask how I got these scars
Hating on me when I chased these dreams
And the make-believe I had to keep my guard
It was never easy, but instead of being supportive
Y'all wanna make shit hard
Then I did it myself, and I got that wealth
And you all come back talking 'bout it's ours

I've starved for this, I ain't given that easy
We are not the same species
Y'all remind of feces
On the beats I been beastly
Go to sleep and then repeat (ugh)

Ain't nobody had my back, so I grabbed my mac
Hit the pad I rapped till I had my racks
Now they mad I stack, while they sad I laugh
Man I'm glad I've hacked this life

Everything go in my favor
You mad that you chose to be haters
The second I got all the paper from all of the labor
You acted like you weren't traitors

Now you all coming and wanting a favor
Thinking I'll bless you like you like some kind of savior
I don't condone any of that behavior
I cut 'em all off and then leave 'em by nature

I never been weak, but the way that they speak, goddamn
Got them acting like I'm not human
Telling me to kill myself when I feel myself
Like what the fuck I've been doing
Slaving all day tryna go and get paid
While they all been tryna make me feel stupid
Tryna save lives, when they say to take mine
It's got me feeling like all of it's useless, fuck (you)

I think I'm dying (think I'm dying)
They told me it gets better, they were lying (they were lying)
These walls are closing in, the pressure's rising (the pressure's rising)
I'm screaming but nobody hears the sirens (hears the sirens)
Nobody wanna save me from the world that I'm in (that I'm in)

Everybody out here always looking see-through (looking see-through)
Skeletons up in my closet's all I speak to (all I speak to)
Y'all don't realize that we can all be weak too? (Be weak too)
Everybody needs to know that I can bleed to
