For real though
• Written by ribs
Even with a drink I can't find the words to think
My style is outdated, or even worse, extinct
So please, if you like rap, you might have to skip me
I can't provide a vibe even when my body's tipsy
I'm a middle class middle child, livin' for a little while
I want to be hard, but really it's a brittle style
Livin' in suburbia, probably never heard of ya
Not cuz you suck, but because i'm a worrier
Contemplating life, or should i say the end of it
Everything is broken, there ain't no mending it
To God do my cries go, even if cry slow
My mental state is bad, it feels like my high's low
I thought this was a bragging state, now i'm just dragging weight
A cashier for past years, would you like to bag your hate?
Somebody stop me, my sins are too costly
I can't go any further, cuz God's gonna toss me
The Bible is plain to me, the words are plain to see
Yet I'm at a loss when I look at the pain in me
If you want a tight rap to go with your nightcap
This is not the right rap, I'm not gonna fight back
I'm givin in slowly, my sin is too cozy
I know that God holds me, but why does he know me?
If God is omnipotent then why did he think of ribs?
Why did he create me? Who does he think he is?
I know this is blasphemy, but Lord I have to ask thee
If life was a test, would you even pass me?
Failure is my future, no fuel in my booster
I'm crying in the morning, I might be a rooster.
I admit it, I quit quick, I'm dying of a sickness
My life was an option, why did God pick ribs?
I'm living as a loser, a mad self-abuser
I'm not too sure that there'll ever be a new cure
Nothing is working, not even working
Pills and psychiatrists were supposed to be a sure thing
So where does that leave me? I'm still broke and needy
I struggle to survive, there's nobody to need me
I hope that my note list is going unnoticed
If anyone reads this, man I'll be so ticked
This is my diary, the fiery inspiring
writer thing, I track it like dieting
It's cold on the inside that's how I live life
with a thick knife, going for the windpipe
These words are regretful, not even that special
I'm mental, whiter than my dentals
God i am begging you, please don't let me loose
My situation's suffocating, a tightly wound deadly noose
Why would you create me? It seems that you hate me.
I prayed for salvation but feel like forsaking
I want you, need you, my wounds bleed through
I try to run away, but my sin is too see through
You say that you love me, you say you control me
Yet how can you hold me? Let alone touch me?
When wishes come around, and when it's my turn
I'll wish that my father had fired other sperm
Years ahead are brick walls, unless i give all
I'm descending to the deepest depths of this pitfall
Jesus be with me, I hate my own sinning
But when it comes to wrong, my demons are winning
My yearning is peaked cuz my journey is bleak
I've learned of the peace but I'm turned to the heat
Why did you mold me if you couldn't control me?
I don't see your path that you claim is unfolding.
My desire is for choirs, not for Hell's fires
I think I sold my soul to a crowd of no-buyers
If I am to serve you, and say that the Word's true
You're gonna have to change around all of my virtues.
If at the pearly gates, you show all my worldly fates
Fear would be the feeling and I know that I'd surely faint
To the users of RapPad, I hope you're not that mad
But i had to drop this burden like bricks in a backpack
Yes, I know the song is directed towards God
But that's my decision, my path all along.
I want to be righteous, standing in the light cuz
my sins are the darkest, you don't know of my disgust
For real though I'm finished, every word diminished
I know what my sin is, and plead for forgiveness.
