Women Rhymes by Ettrick Shepherd Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Head has been fucked, fuck this music I’m hanging it up
Fuck these women, I’m never enough, fuck this money, got six hundred bucks
I’ve been in this state, there’s only so much I can take
Can barely stand to look at my face
I hate my friends, I feel like their fake
I don’t wanna be on my own but I don’t want people around
Mates who I thought understood me are walking away so easily now
Here what I’m speaking about
Had a day one turn on me one day after another day one got put deep in the ground
Don’t blame my energy, I’ve been having my battery drained
Sick of not having a balance of positive vibes and sadness and pain
Still I imagine how content I would feel if that was the case
Kicked my negative habits away then my past hit me like a slap in the face
[Hook]
These women and these rhymes
Always swimming in my mind
Wear my burdens on my sleeve
Keep them with me all the time, time
Keep them with me all the time, time
[Verse 2]
Love yourself, ignore the bullshit - I’m sick of hearing the same words
If your listening I know you’ll relate if you hate the way that your brain works
I can’t fix it though, can’t quit anxiety or shake nerves
Having difficult times so I think about it and they’re made worse
Everybody’s in fancy dress while I got black shorts and a grey shirt
I spoke of the way that I felt but nobody else could help so I stayed hurt
Said hope is gone, you should know that I’m living hopeless
Said I’m falling down so don’t act like you didn’t know this
Who am I? A laughing stock no women notice
Cos I have nothing, no money, no car just a target of hitting the showbiz
No success to impress them so I gotta grind and lift my focus
But it’s impossible to keep at it when I got this shit to cope with
Scared of meeting new people, I never knew just how to behave
I sleep five hours a night, lay in my bed ten hours day
You’ll probably say that’s unhealthy, I know that so get outta my face
Nothing can change how I see this life, I’ma drown in the sounds that I make
[Hook]
These women and these rhymes
Always swimming in my mind
Wear my burdens on my sleeve
Keep them with me all the time, time
Keep them with me all the time, time
These women and these rhymes
Always swimming in my mind
Wear my burdens on my sleeve
Keep them with me all the time, time
Keep them with me all the time, time
[Verse 3]
When I was thirteen, everybody thought I was great
The support was something I loved but now the pressure is something I hate
I know there are some who want me win but they’re refusing to help
They’re supposed to be on my side but they should know I can’t do it myself
Belief doesn’t cut it if there’s no actions to back it so show your respect
Not tryna sound ungrateful but sometimes it doesn’t connect
Then on the other hand, some just wanna see me fail
They love the fact that as I chase the vision, it’s like I’m chasing my tail
A few have love for the music but don’t wanna show other people
No matter how much improve it and work so hard but it’s all for nothing
Why the fuck do I do this?
They’ll go ahead judging my views and hating the tunes and making me feel like I’m
Utterly useless but still take credit for art they had nothing to do with
Love is dead, these women are unimpressed
I gave them all that I had inside me and now there’s nothing left
It’ll never happen and it’s probably something I should just forget
Can’t get joy from that so I’m tempted to go to the drugs instead
I’m tempted to grab this knife from the kitchen and cut my neck
I’ve come to terms with the fact that I’ll only be happy when done and dead
As long as I’m breathing I’ll have these thoughts in fucking head
Put in so much effort to have a good life but didn’t see much success
Head has been fucked, fuck this music I’m hanging it up
Fuck these women, I’m never enough, fuck this money, got six hundred bucks
I’ve been in this state, there’s only so much I can take
Can barely stand to look at my face
I hate my friends, I feel like their fake
I don’t wanna be on my own but I don’t want people around
Mates who I thought understood me are walking away so easily now
Here what I’m speaking about
