[Hook: Cam Groves]
It's just life, it can be hard to cope
You think I'm all jokes, can't see through the smoke
Yo it's just life, don't need people to help
And all my hardships, yeah I'll keep to myself
But now I can see
I just need to open up
'Cause I can't hide
No longer will I keep my feelings inside
[Verse 1: Cam Groves]
It's been years since tears wept
But in them same years, I haven't conquered my fears yet
Problems pop up, I steer left
And then wish I could just fly away like a Learjet
My little nephew here to take away your bad dreams
In the first grade, doesn't even know what dad means
You call yourself a father?
Haven't seen your son in two years, dude don't bother
I've been in love, and I've been crushed
And now I never know just whoever to trust
Plus my head is fucked, I haven't said it much
But I know my parents only stay together for us
When you step back and you look at life
And wish it was math class and you took it twice
I'm not one to regret
Or one to say anything under my breath
Credit card maxed, I reached my bank limit
Now I'm getting phone calls with a bunch of eights in it
Everybody thinks that a rapper is paid
I've invested more money into rap than I've made, shit
I've been rhyming since back in the day
But people only care after actions are made
Yo I guess passion is played
I guess it's just life it just happens that way
[Hook: Cam Groves]
It's just life, it can be hard to cope
You think I'm all jokes, can't see through the smoke
Yo it's just life, don't need people to help
And all my hardships, yeah I'll keep to myself
But now I can see
I just need to open up
'Cause I can't hide
No longer will I keep my feelings inside
[Verse 2: Cam Groves]
If life is a game, it isn't fun to play
It sucks being sad on a sunny day
I wanna pull a Kanye and just run away
But I grab the microphone, I got a ton to say
Dear ex, nothing but a whore slut
Wasted two years, three phones and for what
Yo that's all I'm gonna say, shit
You ain't even worth these lines that I wasted
Don't sing the blues or play the harmonica
It's just one of those days, Monica
Small town folk wanna talk about drama, huh?
Wonder why I'm at home rolling marijuana up
Most likely just smoke my trees
When I'm feeling down and out like a low strike three
There ain't no way to face it
So I get high on a daily basis
People hurt you when they know you try
I spent like five grand on an OUI
And in that same time, I done broke my bail
Caught with alcohol, got thrown in jail
And it sucks when all you do is try to prevail
In life then one night you slip up and fail
My life's an awful mess
But better now I got this off my chest
[Hook: Cam Groves]
It's just life, it can be hard to cope
You think I'm all jokes, can't see through the smoke
Yo it's just life, don't need people to help
And all my hardships, yeah I'll keep to myself
But now I can see
I just need to open up
'Cause I can't hide
No longer will I keep my feelings inside
