Dakota Bear - Lullaby

I was so young when you ran away hopped on a bus and I think you went that a way
I spent my childhood believing that I was the reason
For my momma drinking and treating these days like they Saturday's
I swear I had sadder days how did they think that I'm doing
And I got the key and the drive to get through it
How did he do it they doubted me about to be
One of the greatest undoubtedly proud to be
A father when I never had one there teaching me how to be
Giving my all and it feels like it's taking the life from right out of me

I need you to see all the work that I put in
I'm close to the edge and I'm losing my footing
I'm losing my head and I know that I shouldn't I got to be strong
Promise my uncle we about to be on
Getting the money our problems are solved
Building a business you all are involved
Watch me evolve pick myself up when they want me to fall
Don't want a piece man I'm wanting it all n I'm coming for it

I'll tell you the truth this life is exhausting
Want to be rich at what is it costing
Wanna be homies but what if they cross me
My mind is lost in the sauce and I'm flossing
My mind is lost
My mind is lost and I'm feeling this often
Want to be rich at what is it costing
I'll tell you the truth this life is exhausting

They look at me they think I'm a criminal
I put the work in while they doing minimal
I speak the truth in my Interviews
This for the people that been abused
This for my teachers that said I would never be nothing
The cops they been cuffing me up for no reason
Sometimes I'm losing my faith it gets hard to believe in
Apart of me even feel like a part of me leaving
I'm wearing my heart on my sleeve and
What more do you want keep pushing me and I'll give you the war that you want
My demons come out to play
I feel Theres Angels that watch over me
They want me out of the game
Lost everything but I still have a lot I could gain
Imagine if I never hopped on that plane
Imagine if I would have listened to every diss they been throwing my way
They said I'd never get paid they said my flight was delayed put it to rest
Put it to rest give it my lullaby yes I give my best but still I will look in mirror and I'm never impressed
Forever obsessed

I'll tell you the truth this life is exhausting
Want to be rich at what is it costing
Wanna be homies but what if they cross me
My mind is lost in the sauce and I'm flossing
My mind is lost
My mind is lost and I'm feeling this often
Want to be rich at what is it costing
I'll tell you the truth this life is exhausting
