| Dear Lord, thank you for letting me be here to see another day again
|
| I’m grateful to be alive, God bless the souls that came and went
|
| I’m so lucky to have a good family that loves me
|
| Please let my girl know how much I love her
|
| Sorry that we’re both so unhealthy
|
| I feel so guilty
|
| Every time I pray I feel like I ask you to help me
|
| I don’t pray with the hopes to get wealthy
|
| I just want success
|
| I know it sounds selfish
|
| I’ve always been a screw up
|
| I finally got the chance to fix it
|
| I signed a record deal after all these years
|
| I wish I was more optimistic,
|
| I’m really just scared
|
| What if they don’t like what they hear?
|
| What if I don’t make a career out of music?
|
| What am I supposed to do then?
|
| I’m always getting judged
|
| I hate to see my face in the mirror
|
| And I wrote about everything so many times
|
| I don’t have inspiration to spare
|
| I’m barely even here
|
| I’ve been down on the road
|
| And I feel like I’ve been gone all year
|
| Even when I’m home there’s so much pressure to be Rittz
|
| It’s hard to feel like I’m all there
|
| So many wish they could rap for a living
|
| So complain about it’s unfair
|
| Some days I feel like I’ve been living in a dream
|
| Other times feeling like a nightmare
|
| And I need some ideas
|
| 'Cause I have a bunch of songs to write
|
| And I’m feeling like my future all depends on this
|
| Gotta rid myself of mirror plus these censorship
|
| Gotta get some confidence up in my penmanship
|
| And I don’t wanna disappoint the fans who listening
|
| 'Cause they expecting something incredible in the end
|
| Without them I’m nothing as I regain to get my strive back
|
| I remember when I was a kid and my dad—he would teach me how to play the guitar
|
| Me and my brother would pretend that we was in a band
|
| Musicians in my family would dream to be stars
|
| Only to condensate something that you didn’t attend
|
| That must’ve been playing
|
| I’m the chosen one
|
| So I’m a go tripping and get behind this mic and rhyme
|
| Amen,
|
| Slumerican
|
| Strange music
