Nothin to it just been stressed
And I feel guilty,
People in my inner circle say I'm blessed
But I feel filthy
I think I'm letting them down
That feeling right before you drown
When all the lights dim low,
When it seems like time goes slow
Why don't you call no more
Why don't you come around the crib and come and chill no more, C?
I've been this way as long as I can remember
Embers are the remnants of the memories
That September
When my Gre-Gre done passed
I lived a block up the road and she done slipped from my grasp
But it aint just her that I've hurt
And I know that I will do worse
But ill sit and figure it out there's nothing to it man I Just been stressed
Just been stressed
This ain't no pity party playa, I'm speaking my thoughts
Like that gambler up at night ruminating counting his loss
My perspective is divided, blindsided by all the moments I've missed
While I was up in my cave just tryin to write a new hit
And make it all worthwhile, the tribulations and trials
The self doubt, the self loathing and mutilations
Hostile, is my image in the mirror, tryin to see the picture clearer, but my vision is tainted
It's kinda funny to me, IC can't see the greatest
All the moments I've missed up working just trying to be famous
Drug overdoses I'm wasting away inside the darkness
Forever been heartless, my façade portrays I'm flawless
I hate my mind so much I'm feelin numb Sedation comes in many ways and forms no hesitations, I'm worn
Down to the nub, to the gristle and the marrow, and through
I'm fighting demons, true baby its true
Coke, lust, booze it's true
Envy, jealousy, sloth it's true
Weed, pills, anger it's true
Escape, hatred, fear it's true
Stress
Just been stressed
