Chasing (NF Remix)

My life, tired of chasing my life
Yeah, tired of chasing

I'm so tired of chasing my life, open my eyes
First thoughts that I have, wish that I'd die
Hate that I can't change them, I try
Day after day I'm watching time fly

Thought that only happen when you having fun
Scared of what might happen if I had a gun
That's why I went 10 years without having one
And why I'm still afraid to do this day when I handle one

Sorry I'm so honest with a pad and pun, oops
I mean pad and pen, padded room where I belong
I ain't been the same kid ever since my daddy gone
That's a long time ago so no, I don't make happy songs

Music is the place I open baggage on
You don't like it, no one's forcing you to tag along
Instead of passing judgment, why don't you scroll past this song?
Why don't you become a pastor, since clearly you have no wrong?

I know it hurts to look in the mirror
See reflection but perfection really isn't there
All you see rejection, keep pretending you ain't scared
Use deflection and projection, cover up the fear

I ain't writing this for sympathy
I'm writing this to fight against my biggest enemy
My enemy, if you understand that then you kin to me
If you hating on that you a kid to me

Gotta be kidding me
How you throw stones when I wrote poems
And the ropes gone end of me
I've been going down this road so long I lost all energy

I don't know who I could trust no more or who's a friend to me
People ain't who they pretend to be, get away from me
Get away from life, I don't wanna chase my life
Wasn't for the days and nights of writing I would take my life

Nothing left but that's alright
I'll just keep on chasing light
Praying that my heart don't give out and my mind embrace the night
Shut up and just face it right?

Every song is “woe-is-me”
What makes him think he can say what he think in his poetry?
What makes him think he can remix NF? He's a nobody
What makes people think I need permission from them 'fore I speak!?

I know it hurts to look in the mirror
See reflection but perfection really isn't there
All you see's rejection, keep pretending you ain't scared
Use deflection and projection, cover up the fear

But fear can never overpower faith
Since all I have to yell this album, homie I relate
And skills or not you will not make a shot that you don't take
So if you hear this and you share this, forward it to Nate

My life, tired of chasing my life
Yeah, my life, so tired of chasing my life
