Good Things

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah I just show all the good things Good things, I just show all the good things Ayy, yeah I just show all the good things Good things, I just show all good things [Verse 1] Running 'round, keeping all this pain to myself Yeah, I won't tell nobody else See, I got some things But I keep 'em on the low-low People think they know me, but They ain't really know, though There's a lot of things I ain't ever really spoken I'm not open with the fact that I'm broken I'm floatin', lost like ocean To be frank, I'm hoping That I'm living in a nightmare And I'm soon to be woken So I keep it surface level People think I'm special But they ain't ever seen a mental State of a young blak man with two feet in the grave I'm tryin' to help my people, so I'm forced to behave Feeling like a puppet, scratch that Feeling like a slave, no, I'm not brave I ain't got no option, I do what it takes So I hide when I'm angry Hide when I'm sad I'm afraid to show the bad [Chorus] I just show all the good things Good things, I just show all The good things Good things, I just show all The good things Good things, I just show all The good things, yeah [Verse 2] I never felt like I could be human Being with this purpose is so damn consumin' So damn confusing, I'm on the edge of losin' Everything, watch it all fall Watch me crumble, I've never felt so small I've never felt I ever had the space to recall Every wave of pain, so I left it at the shore That was before I met you when you saw through it all You helped me pause on this waterfall You saw the good, but you wanted to see beneath it You found strength in what I thought was weakness And you showed me that this nightmare Doesn't have to be sleepless Your love woke me Now I can never pass you up like Kobe Baby girl, you my one and only Yeah, I never wanted to share What I thought was bad But with you, I've never been so glad to share More than the good things [Bridge] Spent my whole life trying to get through all of y'all But you keep steady playing Donald Trump building walls Yeah, I always in for something If I fall, then I crawl It don't matter how tall, man, that shit makes you feel small But that's the shit I don't like Sick of this shit like game five You could call me Mike Jordan, I won't let another blak youth feel unimportant Our nation dropped the ball, and it's ain't no fuckin' Spaulding Kids losing lives, seeing suicide As a better option than to keep their eyes open [Outro] Man, we gotta be joking Ayy, we gotta be joking Uh Ayy, ayy
