How can you call your place a home when your trapped in a dome, having nothing but the feeling of being alone.
You see, I never really was the type to have something. Always glad or lucky if you had the chance not to be worth nothing.
It's hard when your scarred by the one man who was supposed to be your bodyguard till the end of the yard.
Tryna think of the place of where you made your first mistake, felt like a heartache stabbed with a stake.
Creature of the night, tryna find the light. Understand the one man you took by the hand.
All of the secrets and shadows, how could you hold me down? Feels like I'm under water, someones tryna make me drown.
I lost the breath to breathe. Baby, please, I'm on my knees help me find the peace that we once had before you mistreated me.
I'm all alone. Nothing but these scars and injured bones.
How was I supposed to know that you were a thrown rock tryna be nothing but a still stone.
It's funny when you think you know someone, then you run, next thing you know, they use you till they're all over and done.
Nothing but an act. Tryna beat the rat. All they wanted was to be the fact that you had.
As this led meets this paper and these tears meet my chin, I'm tryin so hard. Tryna make this frown a grin.
It's all over and done, I should be happy not sad. No really but it shouldn't be this bad.
I'm free!
Someone help me. Its been awhile since I've been on my own. Feels like an episode of The Twilight Zone.
No wait, I can do it. I'm feeling free.
After all this has to start with being me!
