Tell Me

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, uh-huh, Lawd, yeah [Pre-Chorus] I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over, Lord (yeah) I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over (yeah) [Chorus] Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution Tell me x4 I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over, yeah Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution [Verse 1] My darkest secret, my closest friend Is my lonely pen, so let the pain begin Now, we could put it on a page so that people could read And make a couple dope lines, you better believe it Never taking it easy, I was trying to appease every solitary soul That would listen to me, but I Realized that it's all fake, not real I figured out people take but they never give And don't nobody give a fuck about the truth Or what it means to you, you're barely making it through You was living with a dollar in a dream, plus a minuscule scheme Everything ain't what it seems When I looked in the mirror but couldn't recognize The person I'd become, a nigga I despise Otherwise I'm obliged to describe my demise Surprised a motherfucker didn't make it, he couldn't take it No resignation, his dedication was steady fading But what he facing was so amazing, the way it didn't phase him A difficult dilemma dependent upon a mental aspect Flow abstract, niggas can't match that, detached to make a fat batch Of the dopeness, a nigga wasn't this real then everybody would notice We live in a world completely ass backwards, [?] no please and thanks Police'll yank and murder a young nigga then leave him out on the pavement Debating the basis of all of your hatred I told myself that I would work and never start complaining Can't be complacent, don't seek the fame As I reach the brain let's beseech the cadence I kept it inside so I could try to survive And lately I've been getting high for the pain I confide, Lord [Pre-Chorus] I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over, Lord (yeah) I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over (yeah) [Chorus] Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution Tell me x4 I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over, yeah Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution [Verse 2] Said I wanna make a change but it's never that easy Really hard when you're trying to develop an image and give the people The realest they ever heard Talking poetry in motion, I'm speaking a spoken word, absurd We differ within the pain and really live in a lie But the sound that I presented was a ridiculous vibe A ride inside of my mind defines it all But if you really took a look I know you would be appalled Now take a step back, no need to relax But last week I was fine, I recently relapsed I rehashed the issues a nigga never dealt with I wanna survive, it's like I'm barely alive I'm lost inside of a typhoon Feeling helpless I'm so selfish I've been relentless, defensive My independence is not dependent upon the pendant Or any style the stupid niggas are trending The records that I'm making are cold as December Desegregated, disintegrate, people are never gracious Emaciating, interpretation, my flow is a guillotine how I decapitate it Irregulate it, regurgitation of anything that I was creating This procrastinator will stay sedated To mask my emotions I'm feeling up on a daily And I could give a fuck if a record label paid me I wanna make a connection to people that's real And give 'em food for their soul, that's something that you can feel Imagine the passion of packing a promise But what you are lacking is focus Please don't ever think about distractions And pay attention when a nigga rapping It's all about the self-preservation, your effort, and practice when it's time for the lights camera action, Lord (yeah) [Pre-Chorus] I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over, Lord (yeah) I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over (yeah) [Bridge] I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober, Lawd (yeah) I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over (yeah) [Chorus] Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution Tell me x4 I don't think I'll ever be sober I don't think I'll ever be sober Talk about life like it's already over, yeah Tell me x5 Have you ever been terrified Of your darkest fears becoming verified By your destitution, no resolution
