[Chorus:]
Sometimes I slide sway
Silently
I slowly lose myself
Over & over
[Chorus 2:]
Take comfort in my skin
Endlessly
Surrender to my will
Forever & ever
Sometimes I ask myself
Why do I do what I do
When it comes to me
I've been around for all these years
And every year gets harder
But it’s up to me to perceive
Life's lessons are hard to deal with
Every day gives air but it's hard to breathe
And sometimes I just wanna fade
Into the darkness, alone, where I can’t be seen
So many problems and tribulations
You would think I'd have it easy but I don't just saying
How much longer till I finally make it
I feel I work hard but it gets frustrating
I live my dream but success brings struggle
And with struggle comes stress when it comes to this hustle
Everyday I try to make it work
But I'm tired and weak, so I sit and observe
I see the things people say about me
I brush it off and keep going 'cause there's no other way
And if I quit today
Then everything I've sacrificed for would be gone in vain
I live my life on the edge of the stage
Never knowing what's next so I try to rest
But I’m always called back to the grind
By the blood in my veins and the heart in my chest
[Chorus:]
Sometimes I slide sway
Silently
I slowly lose myself
Over & over
Sometimes I slide sway
Silently
I slowly lose myself
Over & over
Have you ever been hated for just being you
Or for speaking your mind, well if you have then I feel you
You’re not alone 'cause I feel that pain
And a whole bunch more but I hide it all away
No weakness in the public’s eyes
Because it gives ammunition to the ones I despise
I remain locked away in my own shell
Built a wall high up in my own hell
Seclude myself and get lost in the music
It's the only thing I know and without it I feel useless
I go away to a place in my mind
My escape from the world, a way out from the bad times
But when the playlist ends I snap back to my life
And snap back to the goals that I got in sight
And it feels like it's so close
And yet it's so far away but I’m trying to make the most
Of what I have instead of what I don't have
And I guess in the end I'm even glad when I feel sad
At least I know that I'm breathing
Through the good and the bad I always search for the meaning
And if I ever find it I'll let ya know
So you can pick yourself up if your ever feeling low
Until then and it's done and said
Let the words of this hook sing inside your head like
[Chorus:]
Sometimes I slide sway
Silently
I slowly lose myself
Over & over
Sometimes I slide sway
Silently
I slowly lose myself
Over & over
I look at myself and I have so many questions
Why me, what's the key to this lesson
How can I learn or unlock the door
If it's barricaded up from the sky to the floor
How can I live when it don't seem worth it
I push on 'cause my people deserve it
I push on 'cause you fans keep me goin'
Even when I seem to question the path that I've chosen
I have devotion and the will of an iron sword
I took an oath now I know what I'm fighting for
If I could help just one of you kids
Gets through a rough time then all this bullshit was worth it
My heart beats to the rhythm of this drum kit
My brain's clear when I'm writing all these verses
Fear nothing times three with a purpose
Sharing knowledge with those who deserve it
And even when I get shit-twisted
I'm always gonna learn and just sit down and listen
But with every day death draws closer
I'm almost thirty now and every day I'm more sober
But every day is a new adventure
And until the trip's over I will always remember
And even if things don't go my way
I'll still be here every single day like
[Chorus:]
Sometimes I slide sway
Silently
I slowly lose myself
Over & over
[Chorus 2:]
Take comfort in my skin
Endlessly
Surrender to my will
Forever & ever
Surrender to my will
Forever & ever
Surrender to my will
Forever & ever
