I take life for granted, made mistakes in the past |
[00:24.76]Don’t want to harbour so much hate in my heart [You feel me?] |
|
[00:27.36] |
Found my way through the dark |
[00:29.48] |
And only by closing my open eyes and taking a chance |
[00:32.80] |
I wanna make my family proud |
[00:34.79] |
And show those that I love that I ain’t standing round |
[00:38.86] |
I hate backing down, hate lashing out |
[00:40.98] |
Hate that I hate so much – what is this hate rant about?! |
[00:44.33] |
I don’t wanna be this negative person |
[00:46.94] |
Pessimistic, perfectionist obsessively working |
[00:49.81] |
Always anxiety ridden |
[00:51.63] |
It’s like my mind’s in Rhyme Asylum inside of a prison |
[00:55.34] |
It’s a blessing and a curse |
[00:57.56] |
I just want us heard and to get the respect that we deserve |
[01:00.88] |
I need to stop and breathe |
[01:02.84] |
Cos in reality there ain’t nothing stopping me be what I wanna be |
[01:07.11] |
|
[01:07.45] |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
[01:21.36] |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
[01:28.51] |
|
[01:28.81] |
I'mma go it alone, on my own rowing this boat |
[01:32.32] |
No-one to throw me a rope |
[01:34.49] |
Feel like I'm lost at sea |
[01:36.39] |
Tryna make waves, on this endless expanse of monotony |
[01:40.20] |
And I gotta be what I wanna be |
[01:42.71] |
Or else it’s like telling my heart not to beat |
[01:45.47] |
Telling my lungs not to breathe |
[01:47.94] |
Inspirations an island just beyond my reach |
[01:50.99] |
Chances are few and far between |
[01:54.00] |
On an ocean with nowhere to plant my seeds |
[01:56.98] |
And you reap what you sow |
[01:58.83] |
It’s getting dark, I keep an eye on my beacon of hope |
[02:02.06] |
Hope in every vein and capillary |
[02:04.11] |
My message in a bottle is my name on the pages of history |
[02:07.58] |
I got two ores |
[02:09.49] |
One named determination and the others name is ability |
[02:14.18] |
|
[02:14.71] |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
[02:26.59] |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
[02:35.92] |
|
[02:36.16] |
This me ain't the way that I wanna be |
[02:38.23] |
Now I know its the way that I gotta be |
[02:41.15] |
I've had my heart broken before |
[02:43.36] |
Another persons actions controlling my emotions and thought |
[02:46.97] |
Love is a battlefield - I'm a soldier at war |
[02:49.70] |
People saying "I don't know him no more" |
[02:52.01] |
The old me's dead and gone, I got away with murdering him |
[02:55.02] |
So my split personality holding the fort |
[02:57.93] |
Now I gotta look deep |
[02:59.45] |
My older said "don't regret anything that makes you smile that's how it should be" |
[03:04.07] |
And so I took heed |
[03:05.36] |
Now I live my life, a different guy but miss the nights I could sleep |
[03:09.43] |
Thinking isn't it funny |
[03:11.24] |
I used to be in control but I'm driven by women and money |
[03:14.76] |
In this eternal search for a pot of gold |
[03:17.51] |
Where I've lost my soul and my hearts gotten cold |
[03:23.92] |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
[03:34.93] |
Don’t make me be, don’t make me be |
