21 / OFF MY CHEST

Ai
I'm writing this on the twenty fifth of June
After a heart breaking day losing someone close to me (yeah)
Telling myself
"Deep breaths it'll be over soon"
I'm losing everything in my life soon to be twenty two (yeah)
Growing up, I wanted to be an adult instead (true)
Fast forward now, I'm all grown up wishing I was dead (facts)
It's all taking a toll on me, I'm feeling so numb (yeah)
I'm here thinking
"Isn't turning twenty one supposed to be fun?" (yeah)
Twenty one reasons, for me to give up (ai)
Twenty one incidents a day, telling my brain to shut the fuck up
Every month my luck runs out further and more problems appear
My bad luck age, I can't catch a break
I need to get out, yeah
What else can I do? In the mean time I'll make a song (yeah)
About all my struggles I've dealt with, whilst being twenty one
(Ai)

Yeah
(Off my chest)
Yeah, yeah
(Ai)
Some people have tried to ruin me, they remain nameless (ai)
Because they're toxic, I despise them
Few fake people have surrounded me this year
Letting them in was so shameless
Doesn't matter now
I've taught myself to be careful who I call real
Finding out the truth
Leaving and trying to destroy me when I thought you was my saviour
In reality, in some fucked up twisted world
You was doing me a favour (ai)
Took everything I had, over some fucked up shit
Acting like a traitor (why)
Told other people you were gone
But to me it was "see you later" (fuck you)
Mind fucking games, I don't get it, I'm done being confused (yeah)
I used to think it was real
But now all that was happening was I was just being used (facts)
Well good riddance and guess what
Fuck you
Scratching the surface
These are some things I needed to get off my chest (yeah, ai)
Whilst being twenty one
My mind has been acting like it's been possessed (true)
That's when I recognized who was truly there for me
Helping me deal with my stress
Now I'm working through my weaknesses, yeah
And you'll be sorry when I reach my best
