Hold on

Living through my dreams I just hope that I’m alive for em,

Nightmares, feels like any second ima die for em,

No im not procrastinating, im just pushing time forward,

It seems fine, I just hope it pans out in the meantime,

I can’t lose my touch, I’m tryna realize,

Being high, it doesn’t do nothing-just make me theorize,

Tired of all the doubt and all the haters-guess they love satan,

I don’t understand why people give up on what love made,

Guess Im-just a little different, I’m a mud baby,

Seen this shit from different sides, I done seen em switching sides,

Bitches get too complicated, niggas get too hypnotized,

Seen that money coming in, that’s when they start cutting eyes,

I been tryna hold on… (mmm)

Through the storm, through the nights I was so gone.

They don’t know what I been on—nah,

But I still gotta stay strong… yeah.

Heart heavy but I move like it’s light,

Prayin’ I make it back home every night.

I don’t complain, I just write,

Put my pain in these songs and I fight…

I don’t speak much, I let my silence explain it,

Smile through the pressure—but inside I feel faded.

They see a calm face, never knew what I traded,

Peace don’t come cheap—I been broke and still paid it.

My circle got smaller, intentions got clearer,

Love got distorted the moment I looked in the mirror.

Hard to trust folks when they motives feel eerie,

Even harder to vent when your heart don’t feel hearin’.

I was up late—ain’t nobody text first,

Pain hit different when you swallow it and head to work.

I done bit my tongue ‘til it bled, tryna play nice,

Whole time I’m losin’ sleep, just to save fights.

Can’t even lie—I been driftin’ from myself lately,

People say they love me, but it feel shaky.

I don’t need a crowd, just a reason to breathe,

If I leave this earth now, who gon’ grieve for me?
