Outsiders

“I was locked up in my head

sometimes i wish i was dead

instead of filling my brain with happy thoughts id rather fill it with lead

nobody knows how i feel

mom wasnt there so i had to pop pills

tryna keep it real but im stuck in my feels

tryna figure out whats the deal like foreal

Im lost my own mind. I was trynna stay on my grind.

All these thoughts about suicide.

I just wanna break down and cry

but i can cause my emotions all over the place

 tryna figure out whats real and whats fake

no kit kat but from you i need a break.

with you i took a chance

i supplied and she demanded

ripped my heart till i couldnt stand it

then you ask me why im damaged

Texting while your drunk you asked me whats wrong?

im loseing all hope tryna hold on

your a truck im an ant I guess I got rolled on

beauty in the mist

Why do i exist?

Problems i cant fix

 even though im super rich

Problems on my hands so i tried to slit my wrist

had the weight on my shoulders ever since i was a kid

but its not like i could’ve changed

almost crashed the whip had to stay in my own lane

my surroundings made me insane.

overflowing with emotion like blood when you poke at the wrong vein.

trying to forget you but your stuck in my brain like a stain on a shirt

I write the best when im at my worst

at first feelings were high but now there starting to reverse

haveing you by my side is a blessing and a curse.”
