How It Is

Living in a house on the same ol street
Singing bout how we all gone eat
Say we bound to stay in these streets
But we not

You don't know how it is
Do ya?

I used to wish that I was by myself
I mean what's the difference that's how it felt
I was just a kid I know I needed help
But I just wouldn't ask for it
I couldn't ask for it

They used to tell me that it happens for a reason
But I'm sick of winter I Need a different season
Bring me something else right after the fall
I'm pouring out my heart like right in front of yall

I see you looking at me but yall don't even see me
You acting like I'm significant... I don't see it
Its hard to be the man that everyone expects
I'm trynna be myself cause to me that's the best
I'm looking in the mirror to see what u see
I still don't see it maybe if I believe?
I'll try to be the man that everyone expects
But I can't be myself? So much for me I guess

I'm sick of the assumptions
Ask me how I'm doing I'm pretending like it's nothing
And y'all don't even see it
U think u can relate tho
You try to understand where my heads at
But neglect to see the journey

I'm sitting here concerned cause I don't want u to worry
I'm dealing with the truth cause u shunned me in a hurry
My visions getting blurry
The pain has yet to scurry
I tried to let it out but its just too scary

The things I had to deal wit in many different ways
I've begged u for a change and u just stayed the same
I'm trying not to brake everyone deserves a chance
I know it gets better well at least that's the plan
You don't know what I had to deal wit in many different ways
I've begged u for a change and u just stayed the same
I'm trying not to brake everyone deserves a chance
I pray it gets better well at least that's the plan
