Ilykev - Through The Eyes Of Men

People show they true colors it get tough up ahead
I could never prove my point to someone who don't believe
Theirs enough people that's out there probably doubting me
When shit got complicated couldn't nobody handle it but me
But then I felt the ways linger over this side
Looked myself up in the mirror and seen a stranger
No indication can't tell which one is reality next
When you invade my mind it's sort of like reality check
Hold on hold on we in a danger zone
Wonder who gone come and save you from the Great Big Bad
Why you lied and told me you would never take him back
Can't waste no energy on someone who just ain't gone believe
Just make em believe
Deeper forces think I'm better than that
When I was younger use to struggle tryna find my way back
But now that I'm older now I see as though the truth is sour
Hard for me to be what I wanna be here
I just wanna leave but I gotta stay here
And do what I could like a man that's suppose to
And tryna keep sober but this here is too kosher
They tryna to kick me down on the inside
Told me I'll be down but I'll forever rise
But I could see through it like a man that's suppose to
I'm tryna see through it like a man that's suppose to
It be the ways of the man that keep on holding us back
The ways of the man is pure destruction
The ways of the man a be the end of our run
No I can't give no energy or follow that no
The ways of a man pure destruction
The ways of a man keep on holding us back
The ways of a man a be the end of our run
The ways of a man a be the end of the world
Hard for me to be what I wanna be here
I just wanna leave but I gotta stay here
And do what I could like a man that's suppose to
And tryna keep sober but this here is too kosher
They tryna to kick me down on the inside
Told me I'll be down but I'll forever rise
But I could see through it like a man that's suppose to
I'm tryna see through it like a man that's suppose to
If I could be transparent
I have to constantly reprogram my thinking
Years of being told I was not the standard
But see that was a lie
We are WARRIORS whose spirits can't be
cursed
Hard for me to be what I wanna be here
I just wanna leave but I gotta stay here
And do what I could like a man that's suppose to
And tryna keep sober but this here is too kosher
They tryna to kick me down on the inside
Told me I'll be down but I'll forever rise
But I could see through it like a man that's suppose to
I'm tryna see through it like a man that's suppose to
