Even through life I feel the chains
Strap down I think I might go insane
Trynna fly but I don't got my wings
Can I see how far I go
Living but living don't feel that same
Running my body totally drained
Even when I'm hot I feel the cold
Can I see how far I go
Yeah ain't no doubt about it
Woke up in the morning and had a laugh about it
First day of school yeah that's just how it started
Remember them days back like a 90's closet
Mom dropped me off that's when she started crying
Overwhelmed by the fear that I started growing
No longer in a safe haven of a loving woman
But now in the stomach of a fear boiling oven
Yeah let me get the story right
Truth that day I got into a fight
I was too short too slow who knows everything was wrong with me right
Couldn't figure out what I did wrong
First day of school I was picked on
Told my nose was big like a French horn
Friends are roses but don't forget the many thorns
Even through life I feel the chains
Strap down I think I might go insane
Trynna fly but I don't got my wings
Can I see how far I go
Living but living don't feel that same
Running my body totally drained
Even when I'm hot I feel the cold
Can I see how far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
Yeah now how did I get here
Life so fast you blink and it's next year
Look at me I shine so bright right
Look at you you also got your own light
Never let anyone out your lights out
Shine so bright they squint and take a step right
Wave your hand and make em take a step back
This song for you, the people with dim lights
It don't matter if my rap don't sound tight
I speak for people who don't even go their own mic
Devil creepin on em when it's close to midnight
Oh man this couldn't even be right
The way he moving would make you wanna think twice
Falling for the lies everything will be alright
Got you running round something like a lab rat
Don't you know
They killing all the lab rats
Got you laid out rubbing his feet like a doormat
His hand clean cause he got you to do that
Never would I let another man try and take mine
Work too hard to have him eat at my placemat
Fought too hard to have him sit where I stand at
Sweat too much to have him walk where I ran at
Fell too hard to have him dance where I slipped at
I'm not here for me but the lights in we
Even through life I feel the chains
Strap down I think I might go insane
Trynna fly but I don't got my wings
Can I see how far I go
Living but living don't feel that same
Running my body totally drained
Even when I'm hot I feel the cold
Can I see how far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
How far I go
