This is dedicated to you, you know who you are. |
|
Listen.. Yo.. |
|
I called you when I needed you most, I thought we would link |
|
I told you the bad news, you haven't talked to me since |
|
frankly, I don't want to talk to a shrink |
|
I might look happy but I'm angry and I'm tortured within |
|
you come back around now, with your hands out |
|
I can see the guilt in your eyes, maybe you understand now |
|
It isn't the fact that when I talk you didn't listen |
|
Its that you said you'd call back in a minute but you didn't |
|
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to beg friend |
|
It just feels lifes my hit a dead end |
|
I tried to turn around but now my back's against the wall |
|
And the pain just wont stop I might have to end it all |
|
I tell myself life is sacred, Its not right to waste it |
|
I feel surrounded but at the same time isolated |
|
At times my own day dreams scare me |
|
I find myself hating anyone that may seem carefree |
|
Id rather go out smiling than crying at home |
|
Ive realized that my worst fear is dying alone |
|
At times I lose my composure but that's not a surprise |
|
I can't control the emotions I keep bottled inside |
|
Don't pretend there's a friendship you and me share |
|
When you hit rock bottom people are usually scared |
|
I guess stupidly I expected you to be there |
|
And when the shit hits the fan man, who really cares |
|
Yea listen.. |
|
I was just sitting here feeling sorry for myself and helpless |
|
Then I realized that I was just being selfish |
|
I'm a soldier, my self-centred brain is my helmet |
|
but when reality hit me I felt sick |
|
We run from our problems - there's many that are paralyzed |
|
We take life for granted - these simply never had a life |
|
We've heard it all before - some people are deaf |
|
That tramp lives in a box while I sleep in my bed |
|
Inside I'm a tortured man who hates living. |
|
But there's people being tortured in Abu Ghraib prison |
|
Theres youths right now that are dying from Malaria |
|
so we can have clean running water in our area |
|
that shit there, has got me feeling ashamed |
|
if you've been through it, tell me whats the meaning of pain |
|
you went court, and they locked you away when you we're acting wild |
|
there's people in Guantanamo Bay that never had a trial |
|
weve seen a lot - there's some that were born blind |
|
in some places hip hop cant be performed live |
|
You whopped bare chicks, you think you a heavyweight? |
|
In Africa 6000 people die from AIDS everyday |
|
And the babies there get it from their mothers, |
|
so think about that next time you **** without a rubber |
|
It hurts but no one said the truth would be fair |
|
The world's a messed up place man, but who really cares? |
