Lyrics

I'm seeing true colours like stained glass, (that's right)
I'm realising good times never last, (for sure)
There's always an ending
I feel like certain people are pretending, All of this credit but I see no progression
Maybe I'm too aggressive
They give me suggestions to perfect my message
Most of the time this effort has me stressing
These days I rarely sleep cuz my memories are so deep
My eyes are wide open cuz the devils playing me
I'm seeing nightmares take over my dreams
I feel the need to scream
I feel like I've been fighting for too long
Critics tell me I'm sending the same message in different songs
So I'm scratching my head wondering if I'm doing this all wrong
I'm rarely out and about in the street
I'm tired of seeing old friends, old enemies, laugh at me
Different days of the week and it's never the same
I'm tryna go distance and stay in my lane
Fighting in war, living with endless pain
It's come to a point where I'm weak
With the lord's strength
I feel like my people need me
I feel like they need to peep my message and respect it
Put more effort into resonating with it
Maybe my message it blunt
I feel like I'm trying too hard
In some aspects, I may be lacking
My main focus is to prevent this traffic in this journey we call life
If I'm drifting then I know something isn't right
Something's fishy cuz too much is on my mind
I'm sensing something
Maybe I'm drifting away... yeah, uh
Maybe I'm drifting away...everything on-

Everything, on my mind, everything, on my mind, everything
They got a n***a stressed out, they got me so cold
I'm gonna blackout, I'm losing so much hope - On My Mind
Everything, On My Mind, Everything
They got a n***a stressed out, they got me so cold
I'm gonna blackout, I'm losing so much hope - On My Mind, Everything, On my Mind, On my mind, On my mind...

I'm okay, I'm fine
Just let me write about my life through these lines
f**k the world I ain't lying
I feel trapped to be black
Everything's opinionated and regulated
Can't be free unless you kiss ass to be in first-class
Father never raised me to be vulnerable, I ain't a slave
I ain't a butterfly to be pimped
I'm against the world living as a black sheep
I'm tired of the world, tired of society and people trying me
Tired of people lying to me and treating me as if I'm a clown
Back of my eyes, I see laughter whilst the circuit goes around
Does it hurt to see someone like me prosper?
Does it hurt to see someone climbing to the top from the bottom
I'm tryna tell these kids they can be whoever they wish
Since no one else is sending this message
Pursue your dreams don't let haters discourage your purpose cuz they're jealous and what u have is in their needs
Look at me and see how many people would rather miss me now but love me when I make it
This ain't arrogance These are pure facts, label me an outcast cuz I make raps about reality, whilst I'm breathing why you mad at me? Huh? Everything on my mind...

Everything, on my mind, everything
They got a n***a stressed out, they got me so cold
I'm gonna blackout, I'm losing so much hope - On My Mind
Everything, On My Mind, Everything
They got a n***a stressed out, they got me so cold
I'm gonna blackout, I'm losing so much hope - On My Mind, Everything, On my Mind, On my mind, On my mind...
