Yuh Now put this image in your brain Its my life and it's my pain It's the story of a little boy who grew up to be me I didn't start off in the streets Yeah this little boy he's immigrated from the Middle East Let me tell you bout that region its the belly of the beast Raised by two parents he's a proud Lebanese Holds his pride in his soul and he spits it on his beats But there's depression in his life and it sucks him like a leech Financially and legally unstable and insecure Life was good until exposed to so much pain and so much hurt Now he's prayin every day and night and prayin in the church It's feelin like a cold night and the raven takes its perch Whats this sadness you may ask Why you always feel like trash Don't go knockin at the party just so you could come and crash Nah, nah, listen, listen Now let's start off with the stress So much ridin on his shoulders so much tightness in his chest Fam expectin nothin but the money makin and success Academic expectations keep on workin till you dead Go to college like your brother go on go and get that bread Immigrated to this country just so you could get ahead Sacrificing everything so that my children can be fed Now there's some people in his life That he's lost because of fights Tom foolery and hangin out with the wrong type Oppressive stigmas and tryna climb to the top of the social ladder But what if I told you little fool that thats the wrong ladder? Its leaning on the wrong wall Youre gonna climb your way up just to face the next fall Do you remember the time you cried in the bathroom stall When you felt you had no one and wanted to end it all?? Homies backstabbed you turned on you everybody’s fake Kids would kill just to live in popularity’s sake Now this girl She came into his life Takin all the pain away and make it feel alright Fallin so in love that she's a beacon shes a light A couple so attached, dated for some time and then she broke it in a night One day she said she love him then the next she's not in sight Now he's depressed Now he's sad Now his heart and his soul go bad When she left she took a fraction of his heart in her possession Flipped the switch and ran away and then they lost all their connection Yeah she did it in a couple days she lied about affection Then he showed her that he's hurting showed emotional expression Made it seem a different way how bout what happened to obsession Girl got away so happy doesnt care hes in depression That whole relationship, did you really love him? Did you really lie? I guess we’ll never know, cause our memories will die I hope you don't forget beautiful moments that we had I wish they would continue but you left them in the past I fold my hands and pray to God for him to give you back He wrote some poems for that girl but then he threw them in the trash When she broke his heart he told himself that that chick is the last But his heart is just too big that's why it broke apart so fast So much emptiness his heart is filled with only memories Now he's hooked on substances and numbs his pain by smokin weed He sits alone and cries all night then goes sips on Hennessey Then wipes the tears off of his face and cuts his wrists until he bleeds Now he's hooked on substances and numbs his pain by smokin weed He sits alone and cries all night then goes sips on Hennessey Then wipes the tears off of his face and cuts his wrists until he bleeds Does it looking for an outlet to escape his misery Yuh, yuh, yuh August first My day of birth Am I blessed or am I cursed
