Sticks & Stones
Lie to my face, tell me it all is okay
Tell me my friends are not fake
Tell me they not playing games
Look to the sky before I blow out my brains
Now everybody wanna come around me
But yet it's funny how they never ever thought about me
Shit, lately I been thinking even my own dad had forgot about me
That's some real shit
People underestimate the change that this fame brings
Yeah, it's hard to explain things when you're outside of these walls, so restraining
Get inside my head but beware of the strange things
That are lurking inside
You can't look directly at them or they'll run off and hide
I know it seems a little crazy, but I promise I'm fine
They think I'm better off dead, but yet I feel so alive
I'm fighting this whole war on my own
How do I have all these people 'round me and still feel so alone
I been drinking, I been smoking please don't tell me that I'm wrong
You say sticks and stones don't hurt you but these words cut to the bone
Yeah, they cut you to the bone
You say sticks and stones don't hurt you but these words cut to the bone
How come I still feel so alone
You say these sticks and stones don't hurt you but these words cut to the, aye
How many lies did I take
From the ones that always told me I could never be great?
The motherfuckers hoping one day I could give them a break
And now they all in my texts saying I got what it takes
I don't think it works like that
All of sudden everybody wants to have my back
Where were you the time I had the gun to my head?
And where the fuck were you when I was left for the dead?
You see, it's crazy how the money make you turn like this
Never needed a handout, I'd rather burn that shit
Because what the fuck is anything if you ain't earn that shit
Ain't a cheat code to life, you better learn that quick
These days I don't really trust that easy
Everybody want me for the money then they leave me
Like here take a piece of my wealth
And in the end, once again, it's just me and myself
I'm fighting this whole war on my own
How do I have all these people 'round me and still feel so alone
I been drinking, I been smoking please don't tell me that I'm wrong
You say sticks and stones don't hurt you but these words cut to the bone
Yeah, they cut you to the bone
You say sticks and stones don't hurt you but these words cut to the bone
How come I still feel so alone
You say these sticks and stones don't hurt you but these words cut to the bone
Tell me my friends are not fake
Tell me they not playing games
Look to the sky before I blow out my brains
Now everybody wanna come around me
But yet it's funny how they never ever thought about me
