Conflicted Mind by Mikey Jay Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2015

[Hook - Coldplay]
Trying hard to speak and
Fighting with my weak hand
Driven to distraction
It's all part of the plan
When something is broken
And you try to fix it
Trying to repair it
Anyway you can

[Verse 1]
I grew aware of my motivation
I found my own destination
I was growing up, losing family too
This happens to everyone, nothing new
But when I get a Grammy, no recognition
But when I'm gone, my keys in the ignition
I won't look back on fonder days
Those people hope I ponder my ways
God tells me to forgive, but I can't
My pride tells me to forget, I'm the man
In charge of my glory, don't need approval
Pay homage to a young blood, tribunal
And by God, a man scorned by time
Only does great or leads a life of crime
Keep your eyes on your bread, don't mind
The howls of the beasts who trail behind
Can't follow orders, I remain leading
Sacrifice myself to a greatness that I'm bleeding
[Hook - Coldplay]

[Verse 2]
Haven’t seen you since I was a kid
Growing up, I loved you and I thought you did
But now, years passed, and you ain’t ish
I tried to refrain from using language
But my mind is saying eff you, go to Hell
If you come back when I’m famous, hope all is well
Tell me that you loved me, but I could never tell
With the way that you and all the others fell
And the only one I ever see is my uncle and my granny
Believe that I won’t ever mention you when I get a Grammy
And that man I barely know better recognize that I’m Death
I’m deadlier than deadly, he won’t ever fathom the depth
I’ve been writing in darkness, spitting rhymes in the darkness
Watching pain form in the heart and over coming the hardest
But know, that a child won’t ever understand a family torn
This was the bull that happened long before I was even born

[Hook - Coldplay]

[Outro]
You should have known that I would snap
You should have known that I would rage
You tell me that you love me and leave one day?
You tell me that I could do great things, you say?
I'm damn great and I hope you realize
That losing you is my greatest pain
I'm just saying, this what happens when you have a conflicted mind
When you fall into this pit of darkness you don't even understand
Where you have to see counselors and shrinks
I don't think you can comprehend
You never had to fight a day in your life with that, now did you?
No...
