Undone

Turning it all to wrongs because we're both striving to be right
Don't let me sleep alone tonight
Realized I was in darkness all along and you've been the light
Don't flick the switch off tonight
We're both so full of bark but it's you I could never bite
Don't send me among the dogs tonight
We smoking, look at all this fog but you're my reason for even wanting sight
Don't leave me staring at the wall tonight
I'm so down for the cause, what is it that's causing all this spite
Don't put us on pause tonight
Sawed off shotgun, nah, it ain't war, I wanna follow the stars, we just gotta cut the cord of the kite
Let's fly above this swarm of horror tonight
Tired of struggling I just wanna take form tonight
My body's sore, I'll be praying to the Lord tonight
See our nation's people are born and separated
It ain't the 60's anymore but nowadays there's more that segregates us
We was just tryna elevate our heavy weighing heads but the rest of y'all said that you hated us instead
I'm just blessed that I have a homestead to lay my head at night
It seemed like just yesterday I wished I was dead from treading this way of life
Oh wait it was just yesterday
I sped away replaced the pain wit a pipe hit
I am in a crate wondering why I have to be like this
Will I ever make it to heaven's Gates when I'm drained and my body's lifeless
I got a blade gripped tight in my right fist
I guess you don't know what you got til it's gone
But they been dropping me wit no regrets for so god damn long
I guess they had a problem
I guess I'm not alone
I guess I cause trauma
All I was tryna cause was a come up
Was I too calculated, too cold hearted?
Ice all up and through my bones
We all tryna follow the sun up
Handing out fault and tryna one up one another
I thought it was one love
All I see is cuts on the wrists, marks where the needles stick and dimes of drugs
I wish everyone would just be real again
I am endlessly coming undone
