Dedicated to My dad Sylvester Young Sr. who died from lung cancer on April 14th and my mom Curistine Davis who died 17 years ago from colon cancer in July 2007
It’s hard to think about this shit when you’re gone,
Everyday I wake up, feelin' like I’m drawn,
Time don’t heal, just a bitch with a knife,
Tryna slice through the memories, can’t handle this life.
I’m walkin' through the shadows, feelin' like a ghost,
Used to have you here, now I’m just a host.
Thought we’d ball forever, now I’m out here flexin’,
Anger bubbles up, but I’m lost in reflections.
I’m ballin’ with these memories, yeah, they stay tight,
But every shadow in the night just don’t feel right.
Lookin’ at your pictures, man, it cuts so deep,
Feel like a thug out here, fightin’ demons in my sleep.
All these bitches talkin’ loud, but they don’t know the pain,
Lost in the chaos, livin’ life like it’s a game.
You were my ride or die, now it’s just me and the void,
Tryna find a balance, but it’s hard, I’m destroyed.
*Chorus:*
I’m lost, but I’m still flexin’, can’t let it show,
Anger boilin’ underneath like a volcano.
Yeah, I’m lost, but I’m livin’, gotta find my way,
In this world of fake bitches, I’m still here to stay.
Used to chase our dreams, now I’m chasin’ shadows,
Life’s a twisted game, and I’m stuck in a battle.
Bitches actin' fake, like they give a damn,
But when you lose your heart, you don’t give a slam.
I’m thugged out, solo, but I carry your name,
Every step I take feels like a walk in shame.
Pour a little liquor, down my soul for you,
But the pain grip tight, it’s like a chokehold too.
So I rise like a phoenix, from the ashes I’ll crawl,
Got your voice in my head, always standin' tall.
Every step that I take, it’s a tribute to you,
Fakin’ smiles for the crowd, but they don’t have a clue.
I’ll keep ballin’ through the pain, let the world see,
I’m lost, but I’m livin’, that’s my legacy.
Ain’t no stoppin’ me now, I’m a beast on a quest,
You taught me how to fight, so I’ll never rest.
*Chorus:*
I’m lost, but I’m still flexin’, can’t let it show,
Anger boilin’ underneath like a volcano.
Yeah, I’m lost, but I’m livin’, gotta find my way,
In this world of fake bitches, I’m still here to stay.
