Robert Alexander II - I Don't Feel Alive

Hardest thing I ever had to do was look in the mirror
And see what is really wrong
Its ok not to be ok
But its never ok to not wanna be alive
I get it I understand
But you feel like no one is there with you
What you don't see is behind the scenes
A group a people fighting for you with people just you
But no one can help you if you don't speak up
This is for those thinking they ain't worth a cent
But value isn't determined by who wants you
Its about you wanting yourself
Your self worth is worth more than what anyone could give or take
The biggest mistake is everyone else noticing what's wrong
And they don't speak up and they don't ask questions
Soon enough shit is gonna happen
And you gonna regret not doing nothing about it

I live day by day with his condition
Yet no one wants to talk about it
No they act like everything is ok
You know what I've been through
I'm tired I'm tired of
Of this of this
I know that I'm alive
But it don't really feel like I'm alive alive
Don't feel like I'm alive
Don't feel like I'm alive

Damn I just heard on the news
Another mass shooting happened at a high school
A teen with a fully auto spraying
While kids in the bathroom of the high school start praying
Its hard for me to even say it
I just don't get it
At the end the kid turns the gun on himself
Thinking this is the best way to end my life
I did something horrible out of revenge and rage
Now I think its only fair that I end myself
No one cared about me anyways
So I'll leave people to wonder why I did what I did
One shot to the dome
And now its all over
Media makes it more dramatic pointin fingers
Only wanting to capture the worst in people
They persuasive in the worst ways
Haven't you ever wondered why you only see negativity on the tv screen
Makes you wonder how brainwashed we really are
So again I revert to the man in the mirror
We all gotta change
Take a look again

I live day by day with his condition
Yet no one wants to talk about it
No they act like everything is ok
You know what I've been through
I'm tired I'm tired of
Of this of this
I know that I'm alive
But it don't really feel like I'm alive alive
Don't feel like I'm alive
Don't feel like I'm alive

I know its a touchy subject
But someones gotta speak up on it
Gotta catch the sign early on
Before hell breaks lose
Even if you feeling like something is wrong
Don't go to the noose
Reach out to whoever makes you feel safe
There's even a hotline to help you in your case
There's an abundance of people in your position in your shoes
You not alone
You ain't the only who is going down this road
Whether you feel like doing something to someone else or even yourself
There's always a way out of it
Everyones upbringing is different
But why does it always have to come down to the same topic
Its always the same ending
No matter how hard its been you made it this far
And you can make it farther than you can ever imagine

Why
Why do I feel this way
I know that I'm not ok
I wanna feel like I'm worth everything
Can you help me please
Can you help me please
I wanna be ok
I will be ok
