Joey Casey - Broken Lyrics

It's Joey
Look
Saca on the beat
I was told from a young age that I need to keep to myself
Put my feelings on the highest shelf
Out of reach from who try'na help
Never let nobody in or out of my health
I was told from a young age keep the doors closed
Don't let nobody walk up on this foreclosed
And all I did is walk around in em torn clothes
Rich kids speak another language like it's Morse Code
I was told from a young age "you'll never be shit"
But that don't mean shit
Cause I could just f*ck around and leave quick
Why? Cause I don't need this
I always knew from a young age I'd never fit in
Why? Cause I'm so different?
Always seen as the rebel and the misfit
Wanna take myself to the level outta distance
But I was told from a young age "shut the f*ck up"
I'll never shut up
In addition, all that pressure starts to sum up
And all I really really wanted was some loved ones
And all I really wanted was just someone
Ain't a cutter but my heart and brain was cut up
And I'm lucky I never picked another drug up
Cause I might be hung up
And I'm lucky that I never picked a gun up
Cause I might be rung up
For now it's walk in the store my last dollars gettin' rung up
But I ain't done cause
Cause I ain't broken
And I ain't hopeless
I still got loads of faith and trust in myself
They don't understand why
And if the world is changing
And everybody hates me
I'ma still be and keep it real to myself
I swear that someday I'll fly
Cause I ain't broken
Nah I ain't broken
Look, okay
Nah I ain't broken
From a place you can't leave nothin' open
Cuz they done broke in
But even if the doors all closin'
It don't matter cause they done broke it
Broke the glass in
I seen people usin' lottos like they tokens
Hopin' to cash in
Puttin' all they scrambled eggs in one basket
Well now they things they carry round in one basket
And I admit sometimes I feel like I wanna be dead
But I can't afford the casket
Cause people and the time is the only thing passin'
Time dies, the past is locked up, back then
How many times I gotta say "if it only had been"
But shit happens
Man it's still really hard for me to move on
Feel like everything I do, shit, I do wrong
And my city looking like it's boutta lose some
Seen so many free tags, it's looking like some coupons
All these broken promises and sick prayers
Try'na go and find nirvana like the Six Prayers
Try'na keep some positivity like the Swiss flag
Try'na keep my head high when it gets bad
Man I really think life is try'na break my heart
But I'll still get back together when I break apart, cause
Cause I ain't broken
And I ain't hopeless
I still got loads of faith and trust in myself
They don't understand why
And if the world is changing
And everybody hates me
I'ma still be me and keep it real to myself
I swear that someday I'll fly
Cause I ain't broken
Nah I ain't broken
I'm just misunderstood, they don't understand why
With beaten up wings but someday I'ma fly
