If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song If I die young, can it be by the hands of time You ask me how I'm doing, I will always tell you that I'm fine All I do is try, but all I get is rhymes I try to hide the hurt, but it's bottled up inside You can hear the pain in my voice in every single line I'm not ashamed of the choice to keep myself alive I don't blame the void that fuckin strengthens up my pride I aimed to be destroyed now, this the other side But now I'm coming back and I promise that I'll try To be the best that I can be without needing to get high Drink my issues all away, I'm done being that guy When you start to lose your memory, you can't sleep or close your eyes It's led me down a path where I'm barely scraping by I won't lie, sometimes I get the feeling that I'd rather fucking die How come I, gotta battle just to be here and survive I wish I had the answers, but for years I've been asking why If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song The clock is always ticking and I don't know how to stop it I don't know what to do, but to stand there and just watch shit Always passing by me, but my hands are in my pockets Cause if I never switch up, I'll never make a profit For years I've been an artist and I've only made deposits I save myself with music, but I got an empty wallet How the f*ck am I winning when I'm only taking losses Publicly it looks different, I'm just being honest I hide most of DNA away, like my outfits in the closet Present myself robotic, hoping one day to skyrocket When you live your life hypnotic, it sometimes gets chaotic When you try so hard to get nothing, you wanna change the topic In a world that's fucking huge, I feel so microscopic You can search my name on Google, people start to gossip And I hear y'all talking when I dropped some singles and a project But none of y'all would really care until I'm laying in a coffin If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song If I die young, bury me in satin Lay me down on a bed of roses Sink me in the river, at dawn Send me away with the words of a love song I could go acapella, but I like a beat to match my words Everyday I go to work to show these people all my worth 2-10 and some overtime to get ahead and finish first It feels like I get nowhere with my feet stuck in the dirt I'm trying to do better, dying young seems like the curse I wake up and I ask myself how much can my life get worse So I'll take these feelings which you hear up in this verse Cause I can't trust nobody cause it only fucking hurts, damn I'm learning to love myself, but this music is essential I see who I really am and I know I got potential To be an artist who does more than tell a story with a pencil Not just be influential My story in itself is fucking messed up but so special Fundamental, for it to be only me in my credentials I've used music as an outlet and it's helped me build my temple But I'm going mental with another skid here to assemble....
