Dying Inside

Yeah I need y’all to just sit back, for a second and just, and just listen, you know what I mean
Basically, people go through shit
And life, it ain't always easy
So you gotta be strong, yo

So what's the solution, the situation ain't improving
Every single day pray to God you don't lose it
The tears fall and hopes go with it
Feeling so defeated, if you broke go get it
Is what you say to yourself, but won't listen
You try to stay clean for real, but don't listen
No ambition and faith as the days go
But still you’re tryin to find the end of the rainbow
But the pain grows
And the urges mount
Ain't got a dollar to your name so what emerges? Doubt
Then he curses out, Fuck the world, I don't need you
Nobody cares, so me neither
Then he receives a call from his youngest daughter
"Hi father, do you know what the month is, what the day is?"
Yes baby, he placed his lips to the phone, blew a kiss, ‘’you're the greatest’’

A revelation, your B-day is May 5th
The wasted 8 years of my life pulling the grave shift
Like a zombie, walking, it's a blur
Ask himself, what is he missing?
Well it was her
He drowned in sorrows, haven't heard from her
Left long ago, wifey bounced, no number
So he gave up, turned to the bottle
Injected death was the worst role model
A child could ask for a man, he was selfish
Always feeling sorry for himself, ‘’why I felt this’’, his hands were asking
But now that's in the past
Today's a new day and tomorrow could be my last
It's time to wake up, make up for lost time
I missed so much of your life ‘cause I lost mine
So I'm on my way right now to see you, be there in a few, please believe I love ya
I'm sorry

Sometimes we make the wrong choices, boy it’s hard
But you can make a change, see the choice is ours
Just pray to the Heavens, hear the voice of God
And you can push right through it, don't hesitate, just do it

Sometimes we make the wrong choices, boy it’s hard
But you can make a change, see the choice is ours
Just pray to the Heavens, hear the voice of God
And you can push right through it, don't hesitate, just do it

Yeah, you can do it man
Gotta ask the Lord for help when you do that
Believe me, it's never too late to make a change. Peace
