Back With a Vengeance
You beat and hit me, now I'm the ton of bricks coming down
This is a lyrical exercise for giving me the run around
I fell in love with my loneliness
I found comfort in the house of pain you homed me with
I'm moving forward, in order to grow I look back
She said my poetry is addictive like cooked crack
Then she said I'm in love with the mind of his
I should be a Cocaine dealer with the amount of lines I give
What's the point of being full of yourself if you have empty dreams
It's like an obese person trying to fit in skinny jeans
I'm not here for friends, I'm better of doing it alone
Me, Myself and I, sorry but I'm not coming home
I've got a war to fight, my demons are about to meet their biggest challenge
Faking a smile and pretending I'm okay is my biggest talent
But now I'm coming like you've never seen me before
Leave my mud marks and blood stains as memories, don't clean the floor
I like looking back at my past scars and seeing how much I've grown
They make me realise I'm strong not weak, they will be engraved on my throne
I'm not ashamed and I refuse to hide
I've survive the worst, I've found my happiness, so I can't lose my life
I've made it further than anyone thought I could
A life that's been short of love, I've been bullied and I got caught in mud
6 years free from self-harm, this is my redemption
I'm the new Mike Tyson and I'm back with a vengeance
