I'm not bulletproof

AsylumDave's Notes
Probably adding a 3rd verse to this.
(Verse1)
Its always been me alone bearing the weight
Of the world on my shoulders, I was getting carried away
Being angry all the time, driving around barely awake
Missed a red light, now my face is covered in glass..
Got pulled out, staring up at a bright light, I wonder if that's..
God calling but I'm an atheist, I always found comfort in facts..
Got rushed off, paramedic is doing all that he can
To keep me alive, he doesn't want me to die so I probably am..
Remembering the words that my mother constantly said
You'll find God when you realize you don't wanna be dead..
I'm feeling the pain..deep in my chest..
Shortness of breath..
Feeling like deaths..squeezin' my neck..
And my family will never know the reason I left...
They'll never know how far I fell because I needed a check..
The paramedic just spoke to me, he told me to stay strong
"You'll be alright, just pray to whoever you have faith on"
"Here goes more lidocaine for the pain, it shouldn't take long"
I felt shame as my eyes closed, who could I ever pray to..
I had no one to embrace me if I never came to..
(Hook)
And I realized you're not bulletproof..
Your time is almost ending
You were my whole life once, now the feelings empty
And I realized you're not bulletproof..
Your time is almost ending
You were my whole life once, now the feelings empty
I'm not bulletproof..
(Verse2)
They lay flowers on his casket
They barely knew him, not the way that I did
They didn't know the man he was when we were both in private
Always full of anger, they think he was hopeful
They don't know the pain he'd always have to go through..
Maybe this is the best outcome you could possibly have
They'll remember the happy you, not the one who was constantly mad..
They'll never know what you did to keep them afloat
They'll never understand why you needed to go..
But I do...they don't know but I knew..
And now I have to carry on, your life is my cross
Keeping all your secrets, I'm surviving the loss..
You had come to meet me, always had my back dawg
I was so uneasy, homie had his gat drawn
You were prolly speeding, you were my attack dog..
you past on, now you'll be the topic of a sad song
You'll be the lesson in the knowledge I pass on..
I'll tell them there was nothing you wouldn't do
You were our armor in hard times but you weren't bulletproof..
(Hook)
And I realized you're not bulletproof..
Your time is almost ending
You were my whole life once, now the feelings empty
And I realized you're not bulletproof..
Your time is almost ending
You were my whole life once, now the feelings empty
I'm not bulletproof..
