(Chorus)
Just this once
Lay down the criticism
And take this time
2 listen 2 my lyricism
Surfing through life
These waves are tidal
And when I crash
Things get suicidal
No matter what happens, I’m still here
Things are not always as bad, as they will appear
Grief as a thief
I got nothing 2 prove
But all this pain in my heart
Won’t allow me 2 move
Way too many things on my mind, I can’t think
So I burn these herbs till my eyes turn pink
Struggling 2 swim out of the things that I drink
It’s hard 2 have hope when u know your destined 2 sink
Every time that I blink
I see a flash of my life
Solving my problems introducing my wrists 2 a knife
My hope is a mountain
And every day I’ll climb
This is my world, my life, my time
I’ll shine so bright
That I’ll illumine the night
All I need is a pen and paper, and I’m alright
(So please listen)
(Chorus)
Just this once
Lay down the criticism
And take this time
2 listen 2 my lyricism
Surfing through life
These waves are tidal
And when I crash
Things get suicidal
No matter what happens, I’m still here
Things are not always as bad, as they will appear
So many haters out there being hateful on me
Too many people now, are ungrateful their free
Instead of giving me, your’ oppressing opinions
Why don’t you just stay in your own dominions?
People only hate me because they hate themselves
Some of them are even in the pictures on my shelves
. . . When I open my closet
I just can’t pause it
Cause all my secrets come spilling out
Like a broken faucet
It’s hard, It’s heavy, It’s hell
But it’s a lot easier
When I don’t dwell
If you can here me
Please help steer me
Only guidance and love can clear me
(Please listen)
(Chorus)
Just this once
Lay down the criticism
And take this time
2 listen 2 my lyricism
Surfing through life
These waves are tidal
And when I crash
Things get suicidal
No matter what happens, I’m still here
Things are not always as bad, as they will appear
It’s a dam struggle
Just 2 juggle these troubles. . .
Even harder when everything doubles
I have worked my way through, an endless abyss
Nothing in my time was ever harder than this
Please excuse me while I reminisce
But I made it past the dark
And times so depressing
I may not be the most faithful
But each day is a blessing
Living in a maze
Finding my way was stressful
But I made my way out
And now look at me, I’m successful
These are the things, my glory shows
But it’s alright
Cause that’s the way that, my story goes
(Listen one more time)
(Chorus)
Just this once
Lay down the criticism
And take this time
2 listen 2 my lyricism
Surfing through life
These waves are tidal
And when I crash
Things get suicidal
No matter what happens, I’m still here
Things are not always as bad, as they will appear
Yeah. . .
