The Me You Don’t See

Lyrics

[Intro: K-Rino] Hey, come into my house for a second What house? Yeah, my real house, listen to your boy [Verse 1: K-Rino] I been tore down by the world, now it's time to rebuild I'm real enough to call you fake and you too fake to tell me that I'm real Out of your two sides, which one will we know The real side behind closed doors or the one that you show When I'm alone I talk to myself, that's strange to you I think we all do, you crazy if you don't in my view Showing as much of my game face the world can consume But how do I carry myself when it's just me in a room Don't get me wrong, I thank the good Lord for blessing my stillness Like ignorance, seems to get more blessings than realness Positivity I condone, but still I'm prone to do evil Have you ever felt alone inside a room full of people If we could read minds for a day and hear what folks ain't speaking You might be shocked if you knew what some of these people were thinking About you (yeah you) I know that I'm being felt You can tell them lies to me, but you can't lie to yourself [Hook: Ashlei Mayadia] The side of me that you don't see That shows the pain and the misery That I'm going through, but never showing you But when I'm all alone, this is what I do [Verse 2: K-Rino] My bad side I'm guilty, you're barely checking that I dream that I shed tears, the second that God read me my record back I activate thoughts and sharpen my wits The deeper you go inside my heart, the darker it gets I rarely speak about my street wars, the things that I've done The youngster that tried to kill me in 2001 Or was it 2002, I can't remember myself I can't forget where I came from 'cause I never left Now if I wanna stack, I gotta bring my serious mind back I put nothing past nobody and it's a period behind that I been the villain and the victim, but my love is blind black If you ain't sure you heard me right, then rewind that line back I take the bad with the good 'cause they feed each other I might be tripping, but it's kinda like they need each other Because without good, the bad wouldn't be seen and such And without the bad, the good might not mean as much [Hook: Ashlei Mayadia] The side of me that you don't see That shows the pain and the misery That I'm going through, but never showing you But when I'm all alone, this is what I do [Verse 3: K-Rino] The me you don't see, the side that tends to play men The side that daily ask God to forgive him for the same sin The side of me that's scared to fail and won't face the ill winds That occasionally doubts the existence of real friends The real me, not the MC that brag and boast The man who underappreciates women that he love the most The side of me that wanna give up, but will never admit it Who know the move I pulled was out of line, but still went and did it I'm tryna gather good intentions and abolish what's left The man that's sitting inside the hoe house with knowledge of self Do I think it's fair I make music that not many jam Or hourly say I ain't tripping, but inside I really am Women come and go, relationships was never what they could be Some loved me, but I don't think none of 'em understood me 'Cause if they did, we'd still be together possibly But I can't cry about it 'cause whatever happened was meant to be yeah [Hook: Ashlei Mayadia] The side of me that you don't see That shows the pain and the misery That I'm going through, but never showing you But when I'm all alone, this is what I do
