I Smile :)
I Smile
When it all gets too much for me
When people walk all over me
It's down to that you see
Now call me selfish
I'll think myself, I tap into thoughts
Then tap out again
I'm not one to wrestle with thoughts
Yeah, Batista Bomb I jot it down for the song
Lace it up now the darkness is gone
I'll float away like a leaf in a pond
But it doesn't take a genius to see what is wrong
I'm fed up still
But I take it all in my stride
No matter what
There's an element of substance and pride
I'll take it all in
Experience the world wide-eyed
But when the inks blocked
That's when I go outside
Yeah, I need to start seeing life from the other side
We go around living our own lives so blind
We live our lives so blind
Yeah, So I smile
You see my smile
Warmth is what you wanna live by
My mother told there is more life
The ones before me knows there's no time
To be wasting
I got too many dreams to be chasing
Caught in the bitterness that I'm facing
But I'm here for a while
So I smile
The one thing that's been with me since the day
Is my smile
It's what I'm good at
Got cheeky way of expression
I learnt my lesson
Don't go messing with emotions
How you feel?
Is this soul food?
Cos I eat every meal
I see all then I seal
Lot bottled up
I need to let it out
These layers I peel
I hate myself sometimes
Nobody needs to know that
I'm not myself no more
Was I ever?
Do I show that?
What you hear isn't what you see
I know there's so many people that are worse than me
The thing is, I don't even know the worst of me
I know this feeling really burns like a third degree
I'll keep it cool like centigrade
The only place I wanna be is rapping or centre stage
Started off happy
I spilled it all in the page
But I keep going keep smiling man
And that's the only way
You see my smile
Warmth is what you wanna live by
My mother told there is more life
The ones before me knows there's no time
To be wasting
I got too many dreams to be chasing
Caught in the bitterness that I'm facing
But I'm here for a while
So I smile
Hmmm, no, said hey
I keep smiling yeah, I keep smiling
No matter what's behind the eyes I keep smiling
The aunties love my smile so I keep smiling
I keep smiling yeah, I keep smiling
When it all gets too much for me
When people walk all over me
It's down to that you see
Now call me selfish
I'll think myself, I tap into thoughts
Then tap out again
I'm not one to wrestle with thoughts
Yeah, Batista Bomb I jot it down for the song
