Burden by Thesanity Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was lost in the thought of the future I wanted
And never put effort in what I was hunting
Conflicted in too many things in my stomach
I couldn’t see clear, couldn’t see what was coming
And that was the point that I knew I was running
And looking back now I can see it was funny
But up in the moment, I couldn’t hear nothing
Reality hit, throwing me in the dungeon, just giving me time
To understand what God was doing
I had a dream and I shot for the stars, but I couldn’t get off of the ground to pursue it
It’s like trying find a needle in a haystack so I had no motivation to go do it
I gave up on what I was climbing to get to and turned all my focus on making this music
But it was the hardest transition I ever had faced
Losing my mind over all of my hate because I never thought I’d get over the gate
And I never did, I ended up in a grave of a dream, that fell to the depth
And I wasn’t ready, be losing my head
Laying awake, cannot sleep in my bed
Too many thoughts to compute, seeing red
And just for the moment, I felt the regret
Of putting my effort in what I got left
But living and learning I’m moving ahead
To what I think God has been trying to send
And now that I’m vigorously on the prow
For using my lyrics to find my own sound
I ain't about trying to get my own crown
I wanna impact all the people around but
[Hook]
Life’s been in motion I fail to live in the moment
My head it be overflowing and my thoughts all in the open
Just proving that I be broken I’m blurry not into focus
Not moving I think I’m frozen but maybe I just be growing
And building a bigger person who knows how to be observant
And looking and always learning that everything's got its purpose
And you ain’t gonna be worth it if you ain’t gonna be working
And that be my only burden that I ain’t gonna be heard and
[Verse 2]
I be awake in the night
But that don’t mean I struggle falling asleep
I go to school, and then chill at my home and then work on my lyrics and searching for beats
It’s not what you think
I’m in it for life and I ain’t gonna stop in a blink
No matter my circumstance, Imma take chance, even with all of the hate I receive
It’s all in your head
If your mentality off, you ain’t gon look like a threat
If you don’t got any faith in yourself it be harder to stay alive into the end
And if you struggle believing in you why you wasting your time trying to prove it to them
You ain’t got confidence looking incompetent, watching your dreams floating over your head
But that was the problem that constantly came to surface and I didn’t know what to say
I had the faith in myself but I guess it was shy cause it didn’t venture out to play
And only when I needed him I would look up in pity and folding my hands trying to pray
Cause every morning I wake to the light of my doubt and my fear always blocking the way
And I would be pacing and the facing my mirror so that I could envision what everyone sees
Filling my head with the thought of the negatives and all the flaws that be printed on me
And nobody knew of the pain I be feeling and dealing I never was able to breathe
And my head under water just making it harder for me to be able to look and believe, cause
[Hook]
Life’s been in motion I fail to live in the moment
My head it be overflowing and my thoughts all in the open
Just proving that I be broken I’m blurry not into focus
Not moving I think I’m frozen but maybe I just be growing
And building a bigger person who knows how to be observant
And looking and always learning that everything's got its purpose
And you ain’t gonna be worth it if you ain’t gonna be working
And that be my only burden that I ain’t gonna be heard
[Hook/Outro]
Life’s been in motion I fail to live in the moment
My head it be overflowing and my thoughts all in the open
Just proving that I be broken I’m blurry not into focus
Not moving I think I’m frozen but maybe I just be growing

And looking and always learning that everything's got its purpose
And you ain’t gonna be worth it if you ain’t gonna be working
And that be my only burden that I ain’t gonna be heard
