Did it (see me now?)

I can't give up, I won't lose my sight
There's something telling me I gotta get up and fight
It's been a hard road, and I'm still on that path, yeeeeeah
I'm tired, in pain, and I don't want to go back, yeeeeeah

How many lives have you lived?
How many peeps have you known?
How many lessons you learned?
Have you emotionally grown?

Right now you can't believe your eyes
because you see what you see
and seeing is believing motherfucker believe me
I'm spittin' Fire
          
CHORUS      Did it x5 See me now? x2

I been a dumbass boyfriend, I was young and in school
I been a dumbass husband, need forgiveness it's true
I lived a long ass life, and I got something to say
I can't get rid of these words, these words just won't go away
I can't stop writing and writing, these words keep coming and coming
It feels like breaking the law now you got me running and running
I started feeling my feelings, and then I let me escape
and if I find myself again FUCK YOU for making me wait
I'm spittin' FIRE!

See me now? See me now?

Author's Note
I wrote this after taking a 50mg CBD gummy of all things.
I'm more of a THC fan, but hey, whatever works
I'll answer the questions I asked in the lyrics...I'm currently living my 3rd life here
My first life was from birth to 26. Second life was with the woman who became my wife.
26-42. This November will be 7 years since I started living this third life.
I've known a lot of people I guess.  Was much more social in my 20s.
You never stop learning, but damn I guess I had to learn some heavy shit in this visit
I'd say I've grown more emotionally than most men get the chance to. Find someone you're attracted to. Maybe it's love. Be together long enough. Confirm it is more than physical. Grow and nurture that love for 17 years. See it take its last breath.
