And if I became a rapper, I probably wouldn't rap long (True) Being known for writing out another sad song As they say, 'choose your poison—my poison is life 'Choose your weapon—my pen is a ****** knife Flavour your values, my character is a little bit of spice A mix of overly nice, I tried to grow some ice But the soft waters remain still warm from my eyes Working harder when I cry, those waterworks are real Tried to help people out of some good sense of will But all the investments in people hasn't paid me still (Still broke) We built our reality on some broken dreams Thought we would be married around twenty three I know I've disappointed you kid, promising to achieve our dreams Now I'd hate for myself to look for achievements inside of me We don't know what it feels like to be truly happy And I know our biggest fear is to disappoint the entire family (Woah) We're not done with the disappointing jobs We got a couple more years of time to sob They don't think you're much of a man And being a writer doesn't fit well with their logical plan You still **** at being a good man of his romance You never even got the chance to own that collection of Vans The suicidal thoughts are still lurking in your mind And you've dreamt up so many ways of how to die At the funerals still refusing to show emotion and cry You still make up ninety percent of all your smiles (Sigh) As we're currently still going through those constant trials Hey younger me, welcome to hell of this adult life We built our reality on some broken dreams Thought we would be married around twenty three I know I've disappointed you kid, promising to achieve our dreams Now I'd hate for myself to look for achievements inside of me We don't know what it feels like to be truly happy And I know our biggest fear is to disappoint the entire family (Woah)
