The Shadow Of Mario

Lyrics

It's like I feel like I'm falling, at light-speed Sometimes it feel like this life don't like me But I'd only need me Nobody ever said it's gonna be easy Verse 1: And here we go again Looking in the mirror, self-reflecting The clarity's becoming much clearer The same kid who used to cut himself on a daily Thinking, "Why my parents hate me? And maybe it'd be better if I dropped dead" But instead I started concealing the pain like a villain Soul in need of healing You be feeling like the man of the hour when the lights on But when the war comes, then where's your fight song? My nights long and the days getting shorter Hard for me to dream, sleep patterns out of order I done hurt somebody's daughter from the pains of my past love I'm tryna give her everything that she ask of She lookin' at me like, 'I didn't know you had love' I'm lookin' at her like, 'I need to see a pastor' Why I'm lookin' past her? I hate these insecurities in me Putting on a front like I don't need Chorus: God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and Verse 2: You saw a smile every time that you seen me, right? But it was fake, I was livin' in a TV life Adapted to Stevie life, changed the way I see this life Used to wish that I was never born to see the fetus life And the people say they need me to spread positivity But most times I question my ability Like are they that much better than me? Nah And that's the problem, I was lettin' 'em be I was the youngest in the shelter, Jackie took me in as her own Like she gave me birth, told me this my home so I'ma take care of her, I put that on my life but To my real mother, I ain't holdin' no strife I came from the bottom, with nothing to my name Became the voice of the people, guess something must have changed But I had to get this out, I kept it bottled in for the longest The same kid who used to be homeless Chorus: God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and I feel like I'm falling, at light-speed Sometimes it feel like life don't like me So please invite me I know it ain't easy Verse 3: Just tryna get ahead, steady falling behind I miss the old Kanye, we had a similar mind Unwind my soul in these beats, tryin' not to lose faith In the man up above, pray my people are safe It's getting darker by the minute I'm hoping I don't plummet In the belly of the beast, digesting in the stomach We all have problems but I been through a lot more Putting the wrong keys in a locked door Searching for home, I'm tired of being the guest It's like we never belong here and when I profess what I stand for They judge me in silence, say they not a fan I'm a outcast in our own land, I demand Chorus: God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and God, I'm tryna understand your plan If I fall, hope I land and
