CantSeeMe
everybody's smiling in my mind
rumors spreading about a happy life

but you don't understand
it's your time to stand
give me your pain
I’ll turn it into rain
you'll be the sun
the rain will bow
its happening slow
it has begun

Did you forget? You can't be depressed.
rule number one, when you're masking it all
so let me take your pain
you’ll know fame
there's a world around here

cause that should be me
standing there
that should be me feeling so bad
that should be me lonely and sad

that should be me
that should be me

that should be me breaking apart
that should be me remembering the past
that should be me, it's going so fast

go on your way
it's only one day
make it the best
then get some rest

the sun you are
you’ve made it this far

that
should
have
been
me
Based on the song "That Should Be Me" by Justin Bieber. The original is about heartbreak, but I just wanted to make it clear, even if you're hurting, you still deserve the world. You are the sun, just watch it rain, and trust that a rainbow is coming. I'll take your pain...

I keep saying it will be okay
cause you are everything I need these days

you say you're a disappointment
when I think you're a treasure

you say you can't handle everything
when I think you already do

you say you're not atlas…
when I think you’re my sky

I look at your face
you hit me with your eyes
and I understand that
it's hard to be

you ask for help
and I waited
for this moment
longer than I could remember
begging to help
someone
who wanted to dive
and drown
ending life

cause I believe
sometimes there are those beautiful things
down in the sea
coral they name
deep down you’ll see

and I believe
you can get lost in their beauty
but if you stay too long
you will drown
before you even feel you’ve gone down

and I believe
that admiring the beauty of the darkness isn't the fall
but touching is, when you lose it all

you say you're weak
when I think you're strong

you say you want love
a reaching hand
when I just hope
mine is enough

and I believe
oh I believe
that
I just need to try
even when
trying feels like drowning tho
Based on the song "You Say" by Lauren Daigle
I know this song is about reaching out to God.
But I just thought....
Sometimes,
we want a person to help us so badly, thinking that person will fix everything. But what if that person is just trying?
Just doing something in the hope it will fix, not knowing what’s right or wrong,
just… trying

touching it is
hearing the song
still standing strong
but this is a trap
cause rap you love
don't blame above

the singer sings
an angel, no wings
brave she is
a crowd doesn't sit

she continues on
singing with her voice
hearing that note
frozen like a bot
quiet I got

eyes from side
to side
that's when I know
panicking slow
I no longer frown

stop it
no tears
I have no fear

weak I am
please
don’t see me ma’am

rubbing my eyes...
nothing happened
right?
I am strong
won’t lose for long
So I heard the song 'Ice Cream Man' by Raye, and music always touches me, just like everything does....

But I can’t show it, cause you think I'm strong, right?
