I know there's some way out
As I shout to the sky and
And there's gotta be some way out of this, some way I can find true happiness
And I guess this is my conclusion, it's up to you to find the solution
I'm on my bathroom floor
Late night, Nicole wit me
Naked right now
I'm bout to open up my f*ckin' shit
For real this time
I've gotta let y'all know what's up, for real though
I went into the woods one day, rope in hand
My conscious gone, and had my final contraband
Looking for a branch, ain't no tree of life
Cause in my head, I just couldn't see myself alive
Yuh
Then God spoke to me, and I saw the most beautiful things a man could see
I had a catharsis, and realized that death was just the rotten one on the apple tree
I knew I couldn't let my mama see me hangin' off that noose
I've got a purpose I just couldn't see, but wasn't bout to lose
Me and God, we had a talk, and I swear I paid my dues
There were two choices: life or death, and you know which one I'd choose
I'm just so thankful God was there, and not the devil, death, and booze
He knew I'd been down from all the self-hate, you see
We talked about it a bit, and then finally reached a truce
I could keep my life if I let you all know the truth
I guess this is the deepest shit I could tell anyone
So, I hope you can understand where I was, and how I've come forward
I love you all, and remember why you were put here
God loves you, and so do I
And, man, it's surreal, like for real though
I still can't believe that this actually happened, it's crazy
