Nate Strider - Finally Happy

2019 I'm back on my bullshit
People always asking
Why do I do this
You should give it up
That dream is stupid
I'ts therapeutic when I use it
Taking my pain
And I put it in the music
Most of my life I felt
Like I always needed someone's help
Trapped inside of a prison cell
Called mental health
And it was hell
But I'm finally happy
It's a feeling that I don't know much
Or I know too well
Used to try to open up
But inside I was a Shell
Had to lie to myself
Just to smile at someone else
But I believed in myself
And look where I'm at
Smile on my face
And a couple good tracks
Always wrote lyrics
Never thought I'd rap
But I pushed myself
And I'm pretty proud of that
I know that my flow is a little bit off
And my rhyme scheme isn't the best
But these are some lyrics
That have been in the notes in my phone
And in the back of my mind for years
And when I repeat them over and over again
When I write about my biggest fears
And I put it on a track
I don't think about the beat
And it doesn't sound weird
And that's okay
I'm still learning
Finding my purpose
Inside of my verses
And it sucks cuz I grew up
Thinking that I was worthless
I don't like to take a thing
If I haven't earned it
I don't really get it
Alot of people fucked me over
Don't think I'll forget it
People tell me that they care
But they don't put in the effort
Looking at the letters
That I never even sent her
So I put them in the shredder
And I'm feeling so much better
I was softer than a feather
Now my skin is like it's leather
And I'm always under pressure
And I blamed it on depression
Always listened to the devils
They can take a fucking message
And I'm always second guessing
And it's got me kinda stressing
But I'm counting all my blessings
Had to learn some fucking lessons
They always hate on my music
Giving me shit for no reason
Now they ask me
'How do you do this?
Tell me bro what is your secret?'
Happy isn't something that came to me easy
Always fell apart so I picked up the pieces
I made an album
It was Low Quality
But I mean it was decent
