Inner self. by King Yager Lyrics
[Damone Tyrell]
Been caught up in these love songs lately
I think I'm going crazy
Well maybe
Most my generation married with babies
Kids raising kids with no education or money
And when I tell em I don't want any they look at me funny
I think I'm on the wrong side of adulthood
I'm out here just living life feeling like that we all should
But they just wanna party drink smoke and not worry about the outcome
They living without a conscious I wouldn't make it without one
Thinking about the resources I've been taking for granted
Cherish it while I have it cause time is short on this planet
We rather hurt each other instead of helping another don't matter if the beholders eyes beady, big or slanted
How am I to manage
When I started from the bottom of the barrel wasn't born with an advantage
I can blame the world for the circumstances handed
But still I have to build just to reassess the damage
On my high horse talking to people as if they're my lessers
Preaching to my brother hoping that he gets the message
Screaming at my mother just cause she don't understand
How it feels to be a man not raised by a man
I was tryna raise some skirts now I'm raising hands
Rapping taught me better than a quiz or a lesson plan
I'm learning through failure I'm no beginner
I just humble my knowledge to learn how to be a winner
I know my worth and value I'm more than your average sinner
It's lonely on the outside I've made peace with the inner (me)
Been caught up in these love songs lately
I think I'm going crazy

And when I tell em I don't want any they look at me funny

I'm out here just living life feeling like that we all should
But they just wanna party drink smoke and not worry about the outcome
They living without a conscious I wouldn't make it without one
