Bami - Perspective Lyrics




Got so many things on my mind
That I want to share
But I can't because I'm so anxious
So much shit in this world
That I can't stand to bear
Makes me feel so angry
So many people out there
They don't even care
About what they're saying
Now I'm talking 'bout my feelings
I don't usually dare
But I feel that it's needed
So often in life
We don't lay it bare
To our loved ones
That are always there
We don't open up
Cus we're often scared
Of standing out from the rest
And being rare
Let's get everything off our chest
For the best
No matter how much you want to protest
Life brings us challenges
It's a big part of the test
To see how we fare
To make us aware
To get us prepared
No need for despair
That's too much to bear
It's time to share the repair
Showing any sign of emotion
Doesn't mean that you're potentially broken
It's just good to be basically open
Rather than always just being unspoken
I've found it's a better way of coping
To speak out instead of just choking
In the past, all I've done is moping
Spent way too much time just moaning
I just wanna keep on growing
Instead of closing up and exploding
That's why Imma keep unloading
And allow my heart to keep on hoping

It's taken me time
To realize who I am
As a person
Not saying that my journey's complete
All I know is it's working
All these burdens holding me down
I'd rather just let them out
And be woken
It's a learning process day after day
Stop shaming myself and just focus
Know I'm so vocal
Easy to read
That's the best way I know
I might not agree with the way
That I handle my thoughts and feelings
Makes me feel like I'm a weakling
I could give you so many reasons
Who cares what others are seeing
It's not about them
It's about me
Learning lessons from previous mistakes
That I've made

Responding to my thoughts and emotions
With such different perspectives
That's not a bad thing to execute
It's just funny when I think about
The shit I've been through
Constantly thinking I'm vulnerable
Cus I'm so kind and so honourable
Opened my heart up a million times
Sometimes I wish I'd just been confined
I've had so many ups and downs
Maybe it's part of the merry go round
I swear sometimes it's hard to let go
The sins of your past
And the pain that you've found
Heartbreak is something that you just face
The idea that nobody wants to embrace
Be honest, I'm glad I've encountered it
Such a concept
That needs to be bothered with
Everything that happens to you
Happens for a reason or a purpose
Doesn't matter at the time
If you can't see it
When you take a moment on your own
To think about your state of being
Use the time you have
To find your sense of deeper meaning
I lost my sense of being
Didn't even know why I was still breathing
Feeling numb to life's many teachings
Didn't want to listen to religion's preachings
But that was a previous season
Slowly I'm recovering from these demons
My heart's still beating
And I'm still here
Ready to keep on dreaming
I'm seeking to find a brand new path
That'll put me on a road
To understand the world
Wanting power is on my creative zone
It's about knowledge
It's about wisdom
When entering the kingdom

It's taken me time
To realize who I am
As a person
Not saying that my journey's complete
All I know is it's working
All these burdens holding me down
I'd rather just let them out
And be woken
It's a learning process day after day
Stop shaming myself and just focus
Know I'm so vocal
Easy to read
That's the best way I know
I might not agree with the way
That I handle my thoughts and feelings
Makes me feel like I'm a weakling
I could give you so many reasons
Who cares what others are seeing
It's not about them
It's about me
Learning lessons from previous mistakes
That I've made
