NewEraMar - Titanic

Yeah
They say crying's for the weak, so I'm crying through the beat
I tried every type of liquor, I been drunk for bout a week
They say crying's for the weak
I been tryna go to sleep, but I got too much on my mind
Like who can I run to when I'm tryna escape from Satans grip
I plead the fifth, then drank a fifth, smoked a 8th
Until you've dealt with depression you just can't relate
Until you and addiction, have a date
Which leads you to question life and fate
Self reflection, how far I've came
No protection, how hard I came
So who am I to blame
For the hours in court, the child support
The time with my child is lost, the fees it cost
She's the boss, my son is the victim
Mama said, you sure know how to pick em, I know
That's why I'm screaming go to hell to my father
He ain't shhh, but mama still fell for my father
And 28 years later, he won't even bother to speak
No tears though, we both know that crying's just for the weak
And here I stand, a broken man with a fear of commitment
Cause if my dad could walk away, then so can one of these women
I say my prayers in my head in case the devil is listening
I'm just playing it smart, straight from the heart
My soul could never be bought
And in my fathers absence there was other things I was taught
Other dreams that I had, other demons I fought
Not many reasons to laugh, that's when the drinks get poured
My ancestors told me to follow the drinking gourd
I'm scared to face the truth, don't ask me for no answers
Crying's for the weak, in a Nissan or a Phantom
Lost a fight, I lost my pride
Lost my girl, lost my time
Lost my child, lost my mind
And pretended I was fine
I was hype to have another life that I could claim as mine
First ultrasound appointment ended up the final time
They say crying's for the weak, so I pour another drink right
A temporary fix until I get back on my feet right, right
So I pour another drink, then I pour another drink
Now I'm a praying alcoholic on a ship that's bound to sink
I drink Hennessy like water, nah, I'm tryna warn ya
And I'm always feeling lonely even when God is in my corner
They say crying's for the weak
Jesus wept, who are we
If I say I never cried, man I'd be lying thru my teeth
I been living for myself because I'm dying by myself
I can't tell the truth to you if I been lying to myself
I been laughing with my friends, but I been crying to myself
Lost my conscience doing wrong, but ima find it in myself
Now who can I run to when I'm tryna escape from Satans grip
I plead the fifth, then drank a fifth, smoked a 8th
Until you've dealt with depression you just can't relate
Until you and addiction, have a date
Which leads you to question life and fate
Self reflection, how far I've came
