BleedingOut

"BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG BANG"

 

"FUCK, AHH, FUCKING HELL, AHHH,"

 

(Car driving off)

 

(next day, laying in the hospital bed)

 

"hello, im officer davis, i want to ask you a few questions, do you happen

to know the shooters?"

 

"nah, i dont" me

 

"okay, do you know why they could have done that?" officer davis

 

"i wish i knew, all i remember was me bleeding out"

 

Bleeding so much, it made my body feel like a drought

after a few minutes i started feeling the doubt

then i heard a civilian who was driving home shout

called the ambulance, spent 2 days in there

im feeling the pain, im feeling the awareness of the situation

this makes me feel like i dont belong in this nation

when i write raps, it gives me my motivation

when i write raps, it makes me lose frustration

people say they afraid of losing their reputation, im afraid of losing my life

i wondered while i layed there bleeding out, would i survive

my gut told me if i didnt have my future ahead of me

i wouldve bled out and died, wasnt even a homicide, or a suicide

i wouldve laid on my side and gave up, i didnt, i thought of my pup

got a new daughter on the way, i know im young (age 18)

turns out my real girl got pregnant, when she told me, i sprung

my feelings were a mixture of happiness and being broke

she is the chosen one, i want her to live a life of fortune

 

My baby girl is on the way, I want to see here everyday

Now I’m crying waiting for that day, to see her

But I’m bleeding out, bleeding out so much I’m in a drought

 

Yo, it started with a bang in the dead of the night

Lost in the chaos, yeah, shattered the light

Heartbeat racing, can’t fight, can’t breathe

Laying in the gutter, this pain I can’t leave

Got a bullet in my thigh, can’t deny it’s a crime

Like a ticking time bomb, man, I’m running outta time

Thought it was a dream, but this nightmare's so real

Bleeding out fast, man what’s the deal

Thought I was untouchable, slick with the pen

Now I’m learning life’s lessons from the pain of a friend

Adrenaline’s pumping but my vision’s going blurry

Bleeding out memories, life’s a constant hurry

Slick with the slick, I stood up to the fight

But now I’m down on my knees, praying for light

With every drop of blood, I’m writing my fate

Bleeding out, but I’ll rise, never tempting a bait

‘Cause every ounce of struggle’s an ounce of my pride

Yeah, I’ve tasted defeat, but I’m fueling the ride

So when I’m bleeding out, hear this message loud and clear

You can take the shot, but this heart won’t disappear

 

My baby girl is on the way, I want to see here everyday

Now I’m crying waiting for that day, to see her

But I’m bleeding out, bleeding out so much I’m in a drought

 

Heart racing, echoes in the back of my mind

Streets taught me lessons, every corner I find

In the shadows, where the light don't dare to roam

I’m bleeding out on this road I call home

Life's a gamble, chips down, watch the stakes rise

Caught up in the chaos, truth wrapped in a disguise

Bullet in the thigh, but my spirit won't die

Tears blend with the rain, but I’m learning to fly

Visions of the past haunt like a ghost in this fight

Friends turn to foes, trust fleeting like light

Life’s a canvas stained, I’m the artist with pain

Every stroke tells a story, every laugh hides the strain

Lost in the alleyways, dreams lie in the gutter

But hope's still whispering, can't let it be a stutter

Brick by brick, build a legacy from the dust

Turn the wounds to wisdom, let the pain be my trust
