See It In Your Eyes

I hate I gotta be the one to tell you like this
But you don't buy the truth 'till I sell it like this
And you don't hear the pain 'till I yell it like this
And you don't get the message 'till I spell it like this
Always putting U before I's becoming regrettable
Time to switch it up, you know, keeping it alphabetical
Non-edible, that's a tough pill to swallow
You acting brand new, that's a tough act to follow
But here I am dancing around all your insecurities
Watered you with love but it only grew immaturity
Now I got a security, well-guarded
It all started
Jumping on them stages
You swore it was phases
You used to pray that I make it now my failure get your praises
Like me living dreams gone ruin yours
And all my feelings still ignored
And all the shit I did before
You know just who I did it for
So why we playing dumb with it?
Stay cool or I'm done with it
I even said you can come with
But can't take the shit that come with it
Who's fault is that?

Yeah
I mean a nigga turned 30 now the future got me worried
Is it too late for rap?
Is my talent too repressed and it's too late to tap?
Yeah, that's where I'm at
And something tells me on my death bed and crying some
Regret'll kill me quicker than whatever it is I'm dying from
Yeah, and how I'm 'sposed to live with that?
It's God given 'sposed to give it back
I'm just hoping that we still intact
I'm trynna bring that feeling back

Yeah
I spoke to God and brought the kneeling back
I pray that he still hearing that
And even without the hearing back
I know that he still steering that
There's not too much more clear than that
You need proof just look where I'm at
I mean a nigga made it big just ain't make it rap
I even did it Ivy League now I'm making a stack
But like a drop out I never been one for the cap
That's why I'm here speaking my truth
I'm still chasing all the things as I chased as a youth
And now you want to trade it all, and me trade it for you
It's fucked up cause you know that that's something I'll do
That's the biggest flaw about me
I measure life by how happy the people that surround me
If anything I want should ever jeopardize that
Then I never mind that
But never get the time back
Yeah, but there's some things I need find for myself
I mean I feel I can make it with time to myself
Because the inner me is dying it's crying for help
And I can see it in your eyes you've been crying yourself
I can see it
