Story behind the song
Stressed out by school, work, family, friends, LIFE in general. Wrote this song for all the people under the same conditions.
Lyrics
I just wanna be left alone, in my room can I stay until my life drains away
It used to be so simple, never had to care about a thing
I was off to school was home by 3 then it was more playtime see
But all of that was just a dream it seems to me
Cuz everytime I think about the way it used to be
it confuses me
Should I be a kid cuz deep down inside of me
My heart is free without a care for what will be
Come of me in the past this was me, but now I see
That life is not as easy as it seems, what is this destiny,
There’s no such thing
But growing up is part of life, that I see but is it true
That everyone must see it through
This part of life must be the epitome
Cuz everything I do right now will be a part of me
My life will either go up down or in between
And my fantasies, they disappeared
Where’d they go? Out the door
Tossed out by the hands of time
---
Shattered by the streets of crime
What would you do if you were
In my shoes,
Stopped at a fork in the road
Where the signs are blank and there are
Some hundred different roads to take
I wish I could smack whoever put me here
Alone In this desert in the middle of nowhere
But Who can I blame
No one, but my self, what shame
Some people would end their lives just to get away
From all the pain that comes with enduring each and every day
I wish I had a plan, to help me build today
I wish there was a sign, To guide me on my way
But I know that there’ll be, no one looking after me
So I’ll find my own way, create my own destiny
Why does life, have to seem, so chaotic at 18
I don’t know what to do, my world is crumbling
I never thought that life would be, this crazy
Growing up it sucks you see, cuz everything I ever had
Was either free or given to me
But now its gone, and I’m left with nothing but a bunch of bills to pay
With my hard earned cash from my job day by day
As I lay thinking how my life had went astray,
I wrote this rap for all of those who feel the same
Babied by our parents until we had come of age
Then pushed us out into the world without support
And criticize the choices that we made,
They just don’t get it, times have changed
What was possible in their time is not the aim,
They want us to be, what they could never achieve,
And I’m sick of hearing all the fussy things they say,
How am I supposed to concentrate with all that noise that they make
When they complain, I guess that I will never be
The perfect son or rich in G’s,
If you’re gonna kick me out, at least just let me be,
There’s no need to get hasty,
I just need a little time to pull myself together
So please if you would shut my door and
Don’t call on me until I’m ready
To come back out into the world where so many things
Were kept from me, so please, Its getting really hard for me
And I wish I could go back to being 3, not really,
I’m only doing this
To preserve my sanity.
Are you feelin me?
