On Your Own

Different lives
Different stories
Different lies
Same sorries
Different ride
Different memories

We all took out time
For the ones who left behind
And the higher that we climbed
It got harder to survive
But God been giving all the signs
That I'm destined to be shinin'
So hate me if you hate it seeing me turn cold overtime
People bonding over lies
Cuz they can't speak outta their minds
Later regretting their life
Cuz confrontation's gon' dire
Posting about it as a victim
Gaining sympathy online
And then going on about it
And being happy with their hollow life
I've been hearing too much about how communication is the key
But the sharing led to regrets
Now the blame is on me
I'm secluded in my space now
Even there I ain't got no peace
All of a sudden I'm the bad guy now
But what about your deeds?
On your story, they gon' feast
Gon' be sorry, then you gon' please
But don't worry, you just teached
Yourself a lesson you won't repeat
Yeah, it's true what they say, your experience is the key

You think you know somebody
But actually you don't
They think they know your story
But actually they don't
Everybody's hidden behind secrets you won't know
Cuz when lessons are learnt
You learn to fight it on your own

You think you know somebody
But actually you don't
They think they know your story
But actually they don't
Everybody's hidden behind secrets you won't know
Cuz when lessons are learnt
You learn to fight it on your own

All of your emotions
All of your traumas
All of your insecurities
You put that as your armour

There's truth behind a joke
Gotta listen and be woke
No reaction? They gon' poke
No cojones, so they sugarcoat
You think you got a person
But that person got another person
If that person ain't got 'nother person
Why do shit behind that person
With a person whom gon' leave you
When they find another person?
Damn, so many lessons
Some got a damn book on their mission
What the fuck is up with this world?
You think you gotta lotta people
How many got your back?
How many are you sure of who won't talk shit behind your back?
One day they gon' call you fam
Next day they gon' do you bad
And then joke around like homies
Thinking neither of you knew the fact
Lotta lack of trust and faith
Yet people bonding in all ways
The fear of being lonely
Has made most of them to dig their graves
Truth is gonna hurt
But a lie gon' hurt forever
All the moments spent together
Now only a Hi-Bye like a stranger

You think you know somebody
But actually you don't
They think they know your story
But actually they don't
Everybody's hidden behind secrets you won't know
Cuz when lessons are learnt
You learn to fight it on your own

You think you know somebody
But actually you don't
They think they know your story
But actually they don't
Everybody's hidden behind secrets you won't know
Cuz when lessons are learnt
You learn to fight it on your own

You think you know somebody
But actually you don't
They think they know your story
But actually they don't
Everybody's hidden behind secrets you won't know
Cuz when lessons are learnt
You learn to fight it on your own
