One of the most difficult things to do Is to tell somebody that you're not Doing okay You know When people ask you how you're Doing your reflex reaction is to say Okay even when You're not Trust me it's okay I'm picking up the pieces of myself But I'm doubting that I find them all Head aching so bad that I'm cheeking And chewing Tylenol I tried to strangle the pain decided to Drown it all in this bottle of vodka a Hundreds the Proof cause when You've got real problems only a Hundred will do Sick of saying the waits over hoping This hangover will loosen up the Grip of this Monkey over my Shoulder Gun crammed in the hostler praying I don't go postal Becoming poster child of the cats That did what they were suppose to Should've went global but I'm stuck Here local Cause I'm Detroit Midwest all that Means to us is really we're no coast So Back to basics back to the basement Back to searching for classics while Digging through crates and In this pursuit of greatness The finish line Are my finished lines It's the reason that I'm different I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way I get through it I'm not okay and that's okay Get it out when I do my music I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way we get through It I'm not okay And that's okay I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way I get through it I'm not okay and that's okay Get it out when I do my music I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way we get through It I'm not okay And that's okay I'm chasing my dreams but I'm Catching nightmares I guess that's the result of me Breathing in night air Wake up seeing my mother Reaching with everything I got I Can't touch her but I knew she's right There In a world that's chaotic I know my Problems are minuscule But if you've been through what I've Been through you'd understand why I'm leaning on My chemicals Or why at times lean has been the Chemical Dependent on depressants Whenever I feel my mental Fueled and I'm riding off the rails Near misses with success but it seems I'm colliding with every fail Losing my balance waiting for justice To tip the scales Guilty's my admission Truth without omission And honestly my gift came with the Cost of a mission if you took the time Listen By know you understand the reason Why I'm different and I'm not okay I'm not okay and that's okay cause That's the way I get through it I'm not okay and that's okay Get it out when I do my music I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way we get through It I'm not okay And that's okay I'm not okay and that's okay cause That's the way I get through it I'm not okay and that's okay Get it out when I do my music I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way we get through It I'm not okay And that's okay I finally made it to the point that I Was destined I can see the full picture while the Artist is still sketching Read the writing on the wall While the author of it all Is still gathering his thoughts and Trying to pen out the message Looking at my parents Not knowing if their steps in The life will have them in the Next begging to get in Walked around my life Half the time with a death wish Clinical diagnosis An extreme case of sepsis Lost a lot of family members A Couple of best friends Whole lot of relationships all ended In dead ends Now young Dutchie feeling just like A compass for all you lost causes Now giving directions Understand it's not a game And the reason why you and me are Not the same Cause if I fail I'mah be the only one I blame But until then Know I'm not okay And that's okay I'm not okay and that's okay cause That's the way I get through it I'm not okay and that's okay Get it out when I do my music I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way we get through It I'm not okay And that's okay I'm not okay and that's okay cause That's the way I get through it I'm not okay and that's okay Get it out when I do my music I'm not okay and that's okay Cause that's the way we get through It I'm not okay And that's okay We all know somebody that's going Through something And it's not the easiest thing to do to Ask them if they need help Or the need somebody to talk to And if you are that person and you Need someone to talk to please do so.
