Outlast
Remember back then when I said I was all for me yeah I lied
Writing this at 3 am with my pillow full of tears that I've cried
Why did I lie maybe because I thought saying it to myself would make it real
Not only did I not do that I look insincere lying about how I really feel
When I speak I have few who want to listen
Now you know why Im always so freaking distant
Because I don't want to step out of my character to get your attention
Since I'm not turnt up y'all think that I'm lacking this cool dimension
Loneliness and self-loathing is a product of this equation
I'll be fine it's just gonna take the sweet bitterness of patience
Im tired of walking around with sad eyes and the utterance of sighs
When all of my trials turn into tribulations how will I arise
Im Only 18 but I'm feeling like I'm 53
While my friends are being young, wild and free
What's the true perk of having an old soul?
Wisdom and things that'll make me have a heart of gold
I have too many things going on in my mind
But no matter how I feel I will never fall behind
Because words that I speak will always have a purpose
They say the best things in life are free, no need for a purchase
Lets start from the beginning, sadness filled me up because no one was there
But I'm taking a stance and I'm doing it with flair
You have to close your eyes and open your ears to listen to this vernacular
I have those kind of words that'll make you think that I'm more than an amateur
I paint a picture with my words catchiness is for the birds who clock to those who have a funky beat one that where they can tap their feet
If you choose to not to listen and not dismiss me because of some superficial bullshhh.
Shh that’s what you’re gonna have to do since the real recognizes real based on what’s true rather than wearing what’s new
So this is what it is I'm an outcast
One that lives life always in a contrast
Thinking of material things you'll be stuck in the past
While I'm thinking and moving on how I will outlast
