To Be Verified

To be verified 
To be verified 
Just let me clarify 
That i have to lose to gain
Endure the world’s greatest pain
Rejection
Just to be accepted
Left in the shadows with the rest
I always claimed i was blessed 
Instead my life has turned into one huge mess
Pain
I’ve been seen as lame 
Since the beginning i’ve been the same
I guess my breakthrough never came
To be verified
Let me clarify
That i need 100k 
Just to feel okay 
Everyone says the greatest feeling in the world
Is fame
Then why do i feel so drained 
What have i really gained 
Who can i blame 
Me 
I allowed myself to drown in this emotional
Sea
Lost in an void i can’t escape
To be verified
Let me clarify 
I have to change to begin to 
Blend 
A lot of people say n***as aint 
You already know 
But where does that leave me 
I just want to be 
Free 
To be verified
Let me clarify  
I must lie just so my feed won’t be 
Dry
Lost looking through someone else’s 
Eyes
To be verified
Let me clarify 
First i must be tossed aside 
In my pain i’m forced to reside 
Im
Blind.
