Gangsta's Tears

You told me to be tough
But then I watched you die
Not from the outside
From the inside
No you can't believe the words
All the things that's said and done
So be careful what you wish for
Might've had it all along
Done a lot of shit
But I know that it was wrong
So take this confession
Every word in this song yeah
These are the words I wrote to keep myself strong
I'm just glad I left cuz I coulda died young
Well you taught me how to lie
But now I lie to you
You're the enemy
There's a monster inside you yeah
From the pain inside,
You'll be living in your fears
Yeah

I turned my feelings off
And I limited my tears
I pushed it all off as I went through the years
I tried to find a family for my damaged soul
If I only I knew better
Then I could've stayed whole
I tried to fix the hole in my heart with a Glock
But as I held that power
Saw my life up on a clock yeah
Living with an attitude like I dont give a fuck
But that would only work
If I kept up with my luck

Well you taught me how to lie
But now I lie to you
You're the enemy
There's monster inside you yeah
From the pain inside
You'll be living in your fears
Yeah
