[Verse 1]It's kinda hard to explainBut I been thinking, haven't come to a decisionDrinking away the pain night after night, listenIt's like I'm caught in the rain, that never stops and only follows meWide, hollow feeling of emptiness, nothing inside of meDrama lays my head on the pillow, but still no sleepBeen walking the Wonderland for 40 days and 7 weeksJust wondering how good it would be, to finally say goodbyeTo everything that's going wrong, God, especially meI wanna let go, let my mind just finally be freeBreathe with no echo, tomorrow won't be less without meI stay in wet, though. Only thing that keeps me on the side of the living is youSaid the same thing to me, tooOtherwise, I'm just caught up in deception and liesI have days of just waking and hating the sunshineHating life itself, hating death for taking its timeLoving you enough not to commit the ultimate crimeI sin in my mind though, visions of weaponry wettin’ me upPaying people off for setting me upSome crazy, wild, sick imagery, painting pictures of bloody scenesSeems the only peace of mind is in dreamsSo I pray for never-ending sleep, but it never comesSo I pray for being so weak and giving upFriends say I live the party life, living it upOne hand on the glass, other on the bottle, filling it upI wanna leave so bad, but loving you is enoughTo make a slow exit to Hell, would never leave you here by yourselfNobody else could keep me here but youNobody else could wipe away the tears but youI love you too much[Hook]I would, give my, life for youIf you asked me toI would do just anything for youAnd the world if I couldI would give to youBut I don't have anything to giveSo I swear just to live for youLive for you[Verse 2]Are you disappointed in me? Twenty-three, can't get it togetherNo money, no job, debt that seems to last foreverI just wanna make you proud somedayLike accepting awards that's in front of a crowd and say "Thanks" in front of a million peopleTell you I've falling victim to some evil things in the pastMy road's been short but rough—a lot of things you don't know even if you askI wanna tell you all but I can't—you're too precious for thatTry and explain why your daughter is into rapI'm like guilt with a guilty conscienceEmotional politics wild on meConstantly pregnant with a rowdy problem child in meI wonder if we switched places, changed the dial on meWould you rather be somebody else's mommy? Divorced probablyDisown me, no apology needed—I understand the reasonIt's the quality of living and what you want for childrenI'm not giving it, but you're the kind of love that never gives up[Hook]I would, give my, life for youIf you asked me toI would do just anything for youAnd the world if I couldI would give to youBut I don't have anything to giveSo I swear just to live for youLive for you[Verse 3]I promised I'm gonna buy you that house on the beachA whole damn streetAnd give you grandchildren, two maybe threeBuild you a studio and get you back to recordingAnd singing whenever you want, give you whatever you wantI know you miss the music too, you just put up a frontBut I can see it in your eyes, musical echo soul cries to be freeDon't you worry about meI'm gonna be all right, when I'm in darkness, you’re my lightI just think different—like you taught meThe way you do, shine different—they all can seeI just wanna tell you you're lovedAnd anything that I can ever do for you is never enoughIt's never enough, it's never enough[Hook]I would, give my, life for youIf you asked me toI would do just anything for youAnd the world if I couldI would give to youBut I don't have anything to giveSo I swear just to live for youLive for youI would appreciate it if you followed me on my Rap Genius account for more lyrics (genius(dot)com/qpla0192).
