Caterpillars to Butterflies

(Mark is on his way, boy)
You know like
I need therapy
Someone to talk to
(Gari, chop that shit up), yeah, yeah

One false move will make you lose it all (make you lose it all)
Been crossed so many times, it'll make you sit there and question your dawg
Lookin' how your exes did you
Should make you look at the next bitch different
A broken heart will make you question your decisions
They all say I'm changing, I'm starting to let the money control me
They hating on my success, they want me to go back to that old me
"Love me forever," that's what they told me
Find out their intentions weren't pure, that shit done broke me (that shit that broke me)

Caterpillars turned to butterflies (turned to butterflies)
Nobody isn't there when it's time to ride (when it's time to ride)
Nobody ever showed up when it's time to cry (when it's time to cry)
Realizing you the only one by your side (oh, oh, oh)
They steady screaming, "I'm the chosen child" (I'm the chosen child)
I'm having anxiety attacks, I'm shutting everyone out
Sick and tired of being told lies (told lies)
This life full of hurt and I don't know why (and I don't know why)

I'm sorry, I just need some therapy (therapy)
But when it's time to open up, I close in deeply (I close in deeply)
I'm learning life at first chance, no one to lecture me (no one to lecture me)
When I be home, be fighting my thoughts, can't seem to get sleep
Everyone they see me strong, inside I feel so weak
I ask the devil can I leave the streets, he say, "I'm in too deep"

For every one of my niggas, I just hope they don't catch a side of envy
Don't focus on today, it's just the beginning
I'm trying hard to escape before it's way too late
Mama stressin' on my feelings she know I'm not okay (I'm not okay)
And then I get to smiling and shit
But she look at me, she can tell by my eyes
I just be wanting to break down
You know what I'm sayin'?

I'm having anxiety attacks, I'm shutting everyone out
Sick and tired of being told lies (told lies)
This life full of hurt and I don't know why (and I don't know why)

Sometimes, I feel I be the only one feelin' hurt (I swear)
I was 14 feelin' pain when I buried my uncle up in the dirt
Watching the pallbearers carry his casket
That's when I know this love not lasting
Last time, I seen Quan in the car, next, I seen his face on a shirt
Seen my TT on they dying bed
I'm wishing that I died for them (I swear to God)

I keep everything bottled up, it's just not healthy
She said, "Baby, I can help you"
I responded, "I'm so broken, baby, maybe in the next life I can heal" (pray for me)
Mentally and physically abused, reminiscing 'bout my past ('bout my past)
Good luck I never had
Relying on my soul
Think it's time to give my soul a break
God, please don't let the devil take my soul away (take my soul away)

They steady screaming, "I'm the chosen child" (I'm a chosen child)

Sick and tired of being told lies (told lies)
This life full of hurt and I don't know why (and I don't know why)
