How Can I?

If you don't ask then I don't tell
You see me smilin' shinin' so you think I'm doin' well
I don't know where I be goin' when my mind be on a spell
I'm floatin' in an out an I'm surprised you couldn't tell
Every day a battle an I always think I fail
But there's somethin' deep inside that could get me to prevail
An if I'm lost
Got no clue where I'm going
I know that you gone be right there
Right there for the showin'

This just somethin that I thought I'd let you know
Just some thoughts I had, questions I gotta ask
So tell me how can I
How can I

There's so much on my mind
There's so much that I can't get myself to go unwind
Got all these feelings that I go and try to hide
But I'm missin' you that shit hits deep inside
Everyday a battle an I tell you that I climb
An when I hit that wall I know you send me a sign
Picture you floatin' an you ridin' up in them clouds
Smalls goin' up and makin' people proud
I'm askin' how can I
I take it day by day
And one day you'll see me fly
Climbin' up these mountains
An I know it's gone be hard
But I'm never gettin' stopped by a window that be barred
I know I gotta fight
And the battle is within
I take a deep look at the places that I been
If I keep on goin' ain't no way I'm not gon' win
So I'll take the struggles even if they gon' come wit sin

This just somethin that I thought I'd let you know
Just some thoughts I had, questions I gotta ask
So tell me how can I
How can I
This just somethin' that I thought I'd let you know
Just some thoughts I had, questions I gotta ask
