Jontee - Shit Was Better Before..

Guess I've been running my whole life, I don't even know what from
These weary eyes have seen shit that would make a warm heart numb
I tell myself that shit get darkest right before we see the sun
So let me rest my head a while and maybe see a morning come

In a society that fetishizes pain, how am I to be
I suffer everyday but I don't say that shit inspiringly
Yeah, ask me what's this life to me
A power tool to fuel my mind to speak

Shit was better before, but this is life to me
The person I am now, I would've died to be
So slump over on the road or keep walking till we find some peace

Cause I've been running my whole life, I don't even know what from
These weary eyes have seen shit that will make a warm heart numb
I tell myself that shit gets darkest right before we see the sun
So let me rest my head a while and maybe see a morning come

Shit was better before, yeah, yeah, yeah, it was better before
Now when change comes knocking on my door
I think about how it was better before
yeah it was better before

Sometimes this life feels like a bad trip, like we made to die young
It's all the same shit hitting replay
I look for beauty in these details
Always feeling like my feelings ain't getting involved

So when I'm gone it's like I never even was here at all
Imma break your block style rap with a single line like Tetris

Now try to listen to my words and maybe learn what writing text is
Interject with a spice of introspection to look at life and maybe teach a lesson
I've tried to live to never waste a second
So in a hot minute then we don't know where we be heading

Like we could be so dead and always changing roads just means you're reaching the dead ends
So you go as far as you like, just ask for into where
Or one day you'll run so far away, you don't know who's in the mirror
damn

Cause I've been running my whole life, I don't even know what from
These weary eyes have seen shit that would make a warm heart numb
I tell myself that shit gets darkest right before we see the sun
So let me rest my head a while and maybe see the morning come
