Ego
So, a couple days ago, someone came up to me and said
My content is the same in all my songs
Which, they're right; it's about my sophomore year of high school
Where I had the biggest ego
I'm not saying I don't have an ego now
But at least, like, I feel like I've accomplished something
Sophomore year, I didn't accomplish anything
So that's why I write about that
I just wanna ask- Is anyone truly proud of me?
Can you look me in the eye and say that your proud of me?
Because, honestly, I feel like no one's proud of me
I mean, it's not a bad thing; I, I really haven't accomplished anything yet
Just dropping songs that don't mean anything yet
I just wanna ask- Is anybody proud of me?
Nah, put your hand down if you were doubtin' me
Called me "all talk", when I'm talkin' 'bout how Ima make it one day
Ima try to get these thoughts outta me
I think I need help with these thoughts in my head
That's why I don't share these thoughts in my head
Yeah, I made a song called 'Thoughts in My Head'
But they couldn't ripen, so they rot in my head
They rot in my head, my brain black and grey
Only Man I talk to is God when I Pray
I'm tryna make it out, but there's a star in the way
And his name is doubt
I need him to get out the way
But then you got ego, he can be a pain
Yeah, I had a bad ego sophomore year, every day
Thought I had some respect, when I had no respect
Thought I had clout, when I didn't have a single check
I think it's time that I put down the pen
It's 4 A.M., been writin' since 10
I wanna say sorry, but my text won't send
I put down my phone, but it's ringin' again
She asked how I'm doin', and I said
"I don't know. I could be better, but my ego gotta go
I'm at the point where I feel like I'm winnin'
But I feel like I'm losin', and my life isn't movin'!"
I just wanna ask- Is anybody proud of me?
Nah, put your hand down if you were doubtin' me
Called me "all talk", when I'm talkin' 'bout how Ima make it one day
Ima try to get these thoughts outta me
I think I need help with these thoughts in my head
That's why I don't share these thoughts in my head
Yeah, I made a song called 'Thoughts in My Head'
But they couldn't ripen, so they rot in my head
They rot in my head, my brain black and grey
Only Man I talk to is God when I Pray
