i survived - jack rootes lyrics
[verse 1]
it starts with one thing; but i couldn’t tell you why
at times, it doesn’t matter how hard you try
i keep that in mind as i’m walkin’ through this life
as a simple means to tell myself that i’m alright
but even with the comforts, my mind weights heavy
so at times, it’s a struggle to keep walking steady
was always taught to be good and to be honest
so let me speak my reasons why i feel so melancholic
depression still eats me alive after all this time
but i put it away with every little written rhyme
workin’ on my mindstate, beat the tracks like primates
but things around the workplace just leaves me so d*mn irate!
if it wasn’t my only way to pay for life’s rotten costs
i’d smack a self entitled employee untill my job’s lost!
but all i can do right now is tolerate it
work alongside my issues, even if i hate it
[hook]
so tired of this stress on me
walkin’ through, it makes me feel so weak
that’s why i sometimes make believe
just so that i can’t feel defeat
all this negativity got me so cross
walkin’ through life, i’m sometimes so lost
became a king on the mic with my own lot
yeah i survived, but at what cost?
[verse 2]
my best friend joel quit rapping earlier today
so proud of him, but i also wish he could stay
he went through a lot of bullsh*t and that’s a fact
brain tumors, general stress, bitter people talkin’ cr*p
albert doesn’t talk to me any more either
he rarely posts online, maybe he’s taking breathers
but i’d be lying if i didn’t say while i wish him
the best, at times i do start to miss him
had to cut charlie out my life years ago
omar had to go too, that’s what i know
luis’ got his own life ahead to live
so many opportunities, so much left to give
who knows where sam is, he’s gotten missing
spoke to him once, then i hadn’t seen him since
that leaves me with the aylesbury rap crown
but what good is it if your friends aren’t around?
