What You Mean?

Blake got another winner
Yeah
Say what you mean when you say what you mean
Falls coming it's hitting harder this time
I been wanting to move back home but I shouldn't bother my mom
And I shouldn't bother my dad
Cause I gotta prove that I'm grown
If I take my butt back to them
I'm erasing the work I've done
I'm erasing the script I wrote
Starting over again
It's like the deeper that I go
I realize I don't even swim
It's like I'm floating on the surface but I'm sinking in my sin
It's like I'm losing circulation
Running out of oxygen
So that's when I go grab my pen
I start unwrapping my gift
I start writing all this art on the lack I have of a bliss
Or the lack I have of a woman that is pulchritudinous
Or the reason why I'm alone after all the girls that I kissed
I been feeling like I was cursed
Like my first one should've been it
But I know my life would be different
This wouldn't be how I live
I been thinking about my exes like equations ever since
And the math I learned propelled me to a place of excellence
Uh
People are people no matter the label
I'm just a servant
Keep my surname under the table
Know some Christians who be living like Jesus ain't save em
The same way I know unbelievers that's always been faithful
I know some folks who made mistakes and they couldn't erase em
Or couldn't change it for the sake of other folks within the situation
You gotta face it
When you in the storm it's pretty dangerous
And it's gone rain if 90% precipitation
In other words you gotta listen to the voices sometimes
For every Sean there's a Devin stepping on the drumline
For every hit I take
I will embrace
Write it down and then erase
Or put it in a song so that the world can hear these punchlines
I said it before that things get better
But tell me what would you do if the trouble lasted forever
Tell me what you do if they aimed and pointed at you
I would stand my ground for Christ
And let the persecutors shoot
What you mean?
