Certain by Elefunz Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I grew up in late centuries, had too many enemies
Every fucking day, surrounded by the mysteries
Ain’t no fucking wonders I went mad
'Cause everything it fucking took was all they ever had
I knew that it was bad, but I didn’t fucking care
All my fucking life it was like I wasn’t there
I knew I had a meaning, I just didn’t know where
I got lost in my thoughts, I was looking for the jackpots
Never seemed to find them though, until I found my fucking flow
Always been so god damn low, and never had a bro
To keep me out of shit, come on and take a hit
I tried too many times and it did release the pain
It felt so fucking good, at the same fucked my brain
Why yearn for fucking heaven when I'm already insane?
But now I have some friends, and some they do cocaine
But that’s just some of many, some people that I know
Don’t own a fucking penny, they put it all on drugs
Fuck other fucking lives, some of my other friends
They cut themselves with knives, you’re thinking, "Is this true?"
Yes, this ain’t some lies, but who would ever care if somebody fucking dies?
[Verse 2]
All my fucking life, I saw problems everywhere
But I didn’t fucking care, although I was aware
I was living in a nightmare, life is fucking unfair
I swear, but now I’m sitting here
Still alive, no need for revive
Even though I want to die, I’ll still survive
I know I fucked up, I poured vodka in my cup
At a really young age, my soul got full of rage
Didn’t know what I was doing every fucking morning
With the pain in my chest, I panicked and I stressed
I was seeking for a quest, that’s why I got depressed
It made me see the darkness, it made me feel so heartless
But now, I want to be an artist
Bring out my music to all the ears
Looking in your eyes and I can see all the tears
But you don’t have to worry, I'll end all your fears
You see for years, I’ve been down there fighting with my struggles
Getting over obstacles and going to those funerals
That’s one of the hardest things with life
One good thing is that I never really touched the knife
But I know people who did, and I saw it as a kid
Tears under my fucking eyelid
I had to make them quit, but what the fuck did I do to stop it?
[Bridge]
And I know how you say, that life can be a burden
But tell me are you ready to die now, you better be certain
After death, there is no regrets
You’ll just be lost, in depths of darkness
Putting all that weight on my shoulders
‘Cause you can’t dodge death, when death approaches
[Verse 3]
And I make music, that I write at night
Think about all the thoughts I fight
But I won’t give up until my life is right
So if I believe, there could still be light
Walking home at nine, I’m looking up at the streetlight
Why did everybody always think I was the weak type?
I can show them heights they never thought I could reach
Thoughts about it always makes it hard for me to sleep
All the things around me often drag me down so deep
But I can probably say that as a man I’m incomplete
Everybody always fucking push me off my feet
Struggle makes you weak, I used to cry myself to sleep
I grew up in late centuries, had too many enemies
Every fucking day, surrounded by the mysteries
Ain’t no fucking wonders I went mad
'Cause everything it fucking took was all they ever had
I knew that it was bad, but I didn’t fucking care
All my fucking life it was like I wasn’t there
I knew I had a meaning, I just didn’t know where
I got lost in my thoughts, I was looking for the jackpots
Never seemed to find them though, until I found my fucking flow
Always been so god damn low, and never had a bro
To keep me out of shit, come on and take a hit
