Late Nights (Remastered)

At the time I'm writing this I'm really not well
This is just a message that I'm sending myself
All this time I tried but just wasn't myself
Whiskey fueled when singing it don't stay on that shelf
Yeah you know my name but don't know me well
I began to change had to go with my will
I don't wanna do it but I know I will
Took a big rock to the dome no pills

Rolled up dollar bills
I was chasing all the thrills
Cause a nigga wasn't happy but I wasn't into pills
So I struggled for a long time with this shit
It's what it is
Guess I passed the test from God
I guess aced the fuckin quiz
I was putting up a fence
Am I making sense?
I was happy living in it
I used that as my defence
For this recreation usage I would do at my expense and I knew that it was wrong but I just needed it immensely
Shit was so expensive
Aunty please don't call me cause I'm sober and defensive
You won't be impressed with the way that I been acting
Knew I had some problems so I used the molly as a distraction
And then I broke my soul and broke my heart I'm picking up fractions
I wouldn't have made it if the ambulance dispatched late
Dying only twenty would've been a fuckin sad fate
Old me died a little but these days I feel I am great
Lemme just get that straight

All of my scars
Come from when I was broken
Life broke my heart but still I'm unbroken
Lotta things that ain't been said
I just wish that I spoke it
You ain't there for these late nights
I fight and fight tryna make it right

I'm just a hurt person that hurt people
My words come from this worlds evil
You would think that this shit be so simple
I felt small
I felt little
Had no voice
I had one choice
I would die alone or I would make some noise
I chose just to get up with a pen and it was written
I can't let em win I gotta show all of these bitches
Said I'd be an addict but I guess I fuckin kicked it
Said I couldn't do it but I really fuckin did this
Listening to beats and that became my new prescription
Rapping, mixing, writing shit I'm so fucking addicted
Please don't get it twisted I'm not naturally gifted
Working for this shit was hella hard and full of risks shit
Worked until these late nights started meaning something different
I got this momentum and got features on my wish list

At the time I'm writing this I'm really not well
This is just a message that I'm sending myself
All this time I tried but just wasn't myself
Whiskey fueled when singing it don't stay on that shelf
Yeah you know my name but don't know me well
I began to change had to go with my will
I don't wanna do it but I know I will
Took a big rock to the dome no pills

All of my scars
Come from when I was broken
Life broke my heart but still I'm unbroken
Lotta things that ain't been said
I just wish that I spoke it
You ain't there for these late nights
I fight and fight tryna make it right
