Full Life

Suicidal thoughts got me messed up
Stressed up, depressed bruh 
This smile that am wearing is my personality getting dressed up

Tryna be the man for the occasion 
The top of the class 
I ain’t even the best me 
Thinking hurts, sad is that 

You know the deep late thoughts? 
We all have them right?
Feels like my mind is against me 
Tryna put up a tough fight 

Looking at all those around 
Family in my head causing me to hate 
Just cos we share the same blood
It doesn’t mean that we relate 

I’m here trying to  live a full life 
Grow old, stay strong
Do it all with my loving wife 
Provide the best for my kids lives 
Look after all the family 
But how I supposed to fulfil a life,
If all I wanna do is die here tonight?
