Let Me Speak Now

My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there
Oh are you there
I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there
Oh are you there

I used to be that dude lost in the distance
Looking over bridges
Wondering how people doin good I didn't get it
Wondering how people doin fine all the time
While I'm workin my behind off and I ain't got a dime
When my car breaks down
Every other Mile
But I gotta go to work and keep
Maintaining a smile untill we all get lifted
One day we gon get this
If you waitin for this window you will probly miss it
If you waitin for someone to tell you that your worth
Then the chances are you'll probly never get what you deserving
So gon get them blessings
Hang out with your best friends
You steady confessing to someone who thinks your less than

My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there
Oh are you there
I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there
Oh are you there

You ever Waited for someone just as imperfect as you
To tell you how to live your life when they just haven't a clue
I Know You got intentions don't mean you got good advice
Had i followed every word I'd be done with living life
No I'd be still in the basement
With my momma wasted
Wondering why life is hard i'm so afraid to face it
And still In the background I am done with that now
I am done with thinking all that I can get are handouts

I have fallen by the wayside
(Let me speak now)
All that I have I
Had gladly gave to your invasive taste and

There was no way that i could satisfy
(Let me speak now)
I know that your ashamed
Of everything I became
Whats to say

My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there
Oh are you there
I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there
Oh are you there

And I was all for the death of me
Could it be that every
Person that was talking pushed me into inactivity
You tell me that it's fine be content with what you have
What I have is a mindset that I could never have
Never get or achieve or try to do better
See i know you mean good
But you can kiss my sweater
Cuz I'm better off without you
Too much time around you
Bought into a narrative I later found was not true
And funny how they treat you when they learn they can't control you
Curse your very name in blame game enroll you
(Yeah)
Tell you that your weak and power you'll never grasp it
But when you find success there the ones that made it happen

My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there
(Let me speak now)
Oh are you there
(Let me speak now)
Ive been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there
Oh are you there

You say that anyone that leaves there happiness never lasted
And I've been watching people who's lives are fantastic
Now I'm setting goals right
This is what it looks like
How you gon be mad when I ran and I took flight
Wonder how this lasted
Was it because of my past
Its bad for all of us to incentivize and prioritize all our goals in life
To make it to benefit you because
We are the ones that are losing
Every time you change your mind to try
And fill everyone with a lie why

My soul is aching and my hearts on fire are you there
(Let me speak now)
Oh are you there
(Just let me speak now)
I've been reaching out but no one made a sound so are you there
Oh are you there
(Just let me speak now)
I refuse to be a puppet I love it or give it up
