My momma found 3 grays today while doing my hair
The stress outweighing happiness the message is clear
Just tell em that it's chasing dreams or facing my fears
Or really wanting that respect from my peers
Keep neglecting the tears
Growing up I felt more lesser than equal
Mama taught me to think other wise
Taught me not to summarize when speaking my thoughts
That logic strengthened my heart
Teaching me never play it cool when it was weakness I fought
Daddy taught me giving up truly just means that you lost
It wasn't failure that cost
Only when you hanging your head
He taught me giving up is way worse than laying in bed and never even trying
Tanjiro the way I know my demons fighting
Uncle taught me love is pure so keep it tightly
And to keep the family close
The world is poison happiness the antidote
Grandma taught me age should never limit you
If it's that worth having then just tighten up your tennis shoes and chase that shit
That's the type of shit that always make me sick
Knowing that this world would rather give up than prove it
Split up when losing
Me id rather push right through it keep my chin up pursue at all cost
Yeah I took was a couple losses but im still here
Raised to chase the spotlight but I still fear
Deaf to all the comments but I still hear
Just in case they get to me I wanna tell you what I still feel
In case I can't escape the coffin may not end like kill bill
I wanna that I'm proud of you if you will allow me to
Tell you that no matter where we left off I'm devout to you
Sorry for surrounding you with thoughts that maybe I no longer loved you like I used to
Or hugged you like I used to
I shoved you to become the sadder version of you
I doctored what I thought I needed where's the surgeon for you
Thought I was burdened for you
Mama I'm hurting for you
I know you saddened but I promise that I'm certain that you
Found the person for you
Someone to always believe in I used to hear pray for someone now you finally achieved it
I can see your happiness and only pray it increases
Dad you smarter anyone that ever got they degree in
A college lemme stop
Your hidden battles pained me but you kept it tucked
I love you and respected that you test your luck with raising someone that wasn't yours
Manliness down to your core
Your type of character is something everyone should adore
But until that happens know that yall words are nothing but sound to me
Sunburn on its rise and spotlight really tried downing me
Demons round the corner I know they close to surrounding me
But I don't give a f*ck cause I know my grandpa proud of me nigga
