lyrics

[Verse 1]
In a world were a few are basking in wealth,
Some worried for health, many asking for help
If you can't see it, you need to blink
Some people can't see shit, there life's on the brink
A loving family's where I was born and raised
In front of a TV is where I spent most of my days
Not tryna exaggerate I hope it's familiar
We need to communicate before I can feel ya
Pause and rewind for the downers who ain't listen
Play my lines louder in case they miss it
Never get a clone, you always get the real me
I have to be alive, even if it kills me
What's important's not what's in front of your eyes
It's what's behind it, find the truth in the lies
Peace is the best I've never had like Beyonce
It's something I gotta have I'll be on my way

[Chorus]
Sometimes I wanna be alone
Be in my own zone, I wanna go home
But then something tells me I'm ok
I'm on my way to a new day, oh
Mamma said there'll be times like this
When I throw a fit then find happiness
Take nothing for granted cause life is fleetin
And thank God, I'm still breathin'

[Verse 2]
Yes I'm welcomed loved and forgiven
But what we call suffering, some may call livin
I don't mean to play nor am I Dramatic
But too often do we take things for granted
Yes I'm also tired from hearing bout the homeless
But tell me something I don't know, Selena Gomez
No more charity, I need sincerity
That's like paying to be good, damn embarrassing
Man I'm too real to be rolling with fake friends
Do I gotta get money in order to make sense?
People make me feel blue, I wish they got a clue
Guess I gotta show you, back to the basics
These are Demon Dayz like a band called Gorillaz
Good music's in demand like Vanilla
I should do something before I demand something realer
I need to start with the Man in the Mirror

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Please be you, everyone else is taken
You can't miss this point, you'll be mistaken
It's time to bring it back, bring it back to home
The place where trees were what wind blows
In this melting pot, we try to bake some cake
Try to fix this world cause I won't give it a break
But wait wait wait, is this what I get?
Or should I change the things that I expect?
Given but never taken, I'm talking about respect
To beg is not to choose what you collect
Call it what you see, your idea of perfect
But boy, do I see whatever I project
I don't really care if you haven't care
Always an open seat in my bandwagon there
Everyday is Good Friday, we'll be feasting
And thank God, you're still breathing

[Chorus]
