Before It's Too Late

I faced all the sadness and weight of the world
I felt on my shoulders the place of a girl
Who showed me the reasons to stay and be patient
I didn't believe I'd be here and would make it

Spending my time throughout the days and the nights
Perfecting my verses and packing in every word
Critiquing myself and every nuance I heard
I couldn't even see straight when the lines were blurred

Resenting all my problems I got too much to list
I just wish you'd acknowledge that I even exist
Thank you very much know you don't a fuck
About how I've been doing or where I'm gonna end up

Used to dream about all of the things I'd achieve
But I don't really give a fuck now I wish I could leave
Meaning every word that I write and I speak
But I can't go now cause they're depending on me

Sometimes I get sad looking into the future
Cause that tight-knit circle gets lesser and fewer
All those people start to die and move away all the time
Said they'll give you a call but you just know that's a lie

I faced all the sadness and weight of the world
I felt on my shoulders the place of a girl
Who showed me the reasons to stay and be patient
I didn't believe I'd be here and would make it

Victim to a feeling spent too many hours
Locked up in my room no sense of no power
Cause I've been fighting all this going on inside of my brain
Fucked up on the ground got no blood in my veins

Tired of these people acting fake and conceited
Cause I just wanna do good bitch I don't need a reason
Got so little time that we spending alive
Like where were you at when X and Peep had both died

Shit just always goes down in the worst way
Just happens too fast you got so much left to say
Wish that they were back they were gone too soon
But the earth still spins like the sun and the moon

Cherish all your people always make em feel loved
Tomorrow ain't a promise yeah your time could be up
Tell em how you feel and do not miss the chance
Cause when they're gone inside the ground ain't no bringing em back

I faced all the sadness and weight of the world
I felt on my shoulders the place of a girl
Who showed me the reasons to stay and be patient
I didn't believe I'd be here and would make it
