One slip you better watch your step, because when you take a look at what\'s holding you back you\'ll see that there\'s really nothing left
You\'re all you got in this life
You can still drown in a river of blood
Don\'t lose all rationality in the name of love
The facts are nothing in this life matters more than money, life is a endless race and you just have to keep running
No one is going to be there for you when your 15 and you find out your boyfriend has been shot
Don\'t put your life on hold for some one who doesn\'t appreciate you when you give everything you got
No one is going to hold your hand when mommy and daddy don\'t have the finances for a stable life
And just when you feel the chains of greed wrapping around your throat, that\'s when they\'ll smell your vulnerability and then question you for your hostility
No one is going to be there for you when your mom is diagnosed with cancer and you pray to god that when you wake up it\'s you instead
In fact people will only temporarily care when some one is dead
No one is going to be there when your best friend commits suicide and the only thing that\'s on repeat in your mind is
\"Hmmm... I wonder... if I was there to save his life would it have cost me mine?\"
You\'re the carrier of your own pain
The truth is friends are there for you when its all fun and games
Good thing we always have family right?
Family is beautiful and unconditional love is rare, so how come I feel so lonely when I tell them that I\'m scared?
Is that why people jump into relationships? Or is it just because no matter how hard we try to stop it,
those two hands on the clock are always going to tick and tock?
When shit hits the fan they have their own pain to bury, they don\'t need your pain as an extra burden to carry
It doesn\'t matter if you living your life for them
They only want to see them self win
The truth is you\'re all you got
If you don\'t have your own back then the child you made all those broken promises to just watches you slowly rot
And when there\'s nothing left?
Well at least we can wait on that direct deposit to hit, turn our back to those in need and worry about the big mans greed.
