Intro

It seems like everyone out there is tryna be somebody else or putting on a front and being something they not. GOD created you wit a specific purpose and that’s the best thing you can be. Authentically you.
A cry for help.


Verse WuN - Thumpz416ix

I’m Feeling Defeated, I’m Imprisoned and Distant, it’s a Lonely Sight /
Looking for the Good but there Isn’t, Its Only Plight /
I’m not the Phony Type /
Burdened by my Struggles and my Homies Fight /
Yeah, Life is Colder than a Snowy Night /

Look, I’m Tryna Progress but my Dough be Light /
LORD Hold me Tight /
I Cried to Belong, Christ Died for my Wrongs to Show me Right /
Y’all Wouldn’t Believe what the Old me Like /

It Begun in a Class /
Started Sippin 40 Ounces, Bunnin the Grass /
Dude is Worth 6 Digits - had a Hundred in Cash /
They Crept up, Pop, Brain on his seat wit a Ton on the Dash /

This the ghetto, ask Moms I Kept One in the Stash /
I Robbed People then Would Run in a Flash /
No Lies wit Closed Eyes, I still Hear the Gun when It Blast /
This is what I’ve Seen or Done in the Past /

This is Real, I’m just letting my Thoughts Go /
Ain’t it Strange the World Teaches not to Follow anything Christ has Taught Tho? /
Hard Hearted wit GOD I Fought Yo /
Isaiah 5:15-the Arrogant is Humbled and Brought Low /

What I Write wit the Pen is True /
Never Surprised by the Evil that Men’ll Do /
Christ is Murdered but Resurrected and Ascended Too /
He’s Mediating and Defending You /

Worship got my Hands Raised like it’s 10 to 2 /
Or 10:10 /
Check the Face of your Watch /
If you get it, you’ll see that Bar Hard like you Tasting a Scotch /
Looking like you got Hit in the Place of your Crotch /

My Niggaz still Attempt me to Ride /
And the Devil still Tempt me wit Pride /
Im before GOD on Charges and in Order to Exempt me, He Died /
So why I feel Empty Inside? /
Huh?? /

Sometimes I Feel Worthlessness /
Figuring Out what my Purpose Is /
People saying “Why Don’t we see the Smirk of His?” /
I’m an Iceberg, you don’t see Underneath but only what Surfaces /

In Bondage but I’m Breaking Free /
Ain’t I‎t Funny that the way of Standing Up is to Take a Knee /
Feeling the Way I Feel is Something that I Hate to See /
Am I Alone or do Anyone Relate to Me? /


Hook - Thumpz416ix

Does anyone relate to me or feel the same? /
Tell me, do you also conceal the shame? /
LORD, I’m calling on you to heal the pain /

Why is the world so dark and cold? /
I’m no longer giving you part but whole /
So LORD come invade my heart and soul /

I’m giving you the real me /
Does anybody feel me? /


Verse 2 - BSEMNT

I heard new youth now dead in the streets /
Got me questioning my life in my bed gripped sheets /
Thinking how can i sleep when theres people in need /
Got me feeling my greed when will this happen to me /

Clutching a blade /
I walk the streets ducking these fades /
Stuck and amazed /
I feel like i run amuck in a maze /
Twists and turns feelin hell beneath as it burns /
Seen the headline when will these people just learn /

Wont say black lives matter from their silver platters /
Broken homes broken ones life is shattered /
Blood be scattered mommas losin sons its a pattern /
Girls in the mirror crying wishing stomachs was flatter /

Huh, but im just another rap cat /
They just wanna hear a hit that makes a back clap /
Im just tryna make a hit that brings a dad back /
Live in the moment yall can put away ya snapchats /

Broke away from music /
I was havin thought of usin /
Pills to numb the pain cause my brain took an brusin /
Thinking bout these promises that i could never keep /
Thinking bout the problems in these cold dark streets /

I’m feelin jaded /
Im thinking all this livings over rated /
Who’s watching us struggle cause these scales is over weighted /
On one side so the more that we drop - they rise /
They fly - so high while we die /

Sometimes i think that this is all a facade /
Have all these christians looking at me like im odd /
Like they aint ever doubt god once /
Soon as i talk my feelings they just pull out they guns /

And they shoot, i feel odd up in this room /
Cause theres people all around me asking why i love these youth /
They scream thugs, liars, thieves, killas /
How can we be silent bout this pain we feeling /

So we spit tracks in a plywood booth /
And we Write bars on our ways to school /
And we dream big of being on that stage /
And we wanna bring this city love and change /

Lord we need you, we need you in these streets /
Cause most of us got nothing to eat /
And we killing ourselves, show us how to love /
No more hashtag justice for us /

Only thing i want for 13 is vacancy /
Have these kids make it big so they can see /
They was kings the whole time not in slavery /
Am i alone do anyone relate to me? /
