Marcus Salinas - MS I

Is this really the intro track haha
It's just it's kind of dark and basic
It's just not really my vibe but oh well
Alright time to give an intro
Mmm
Hello the name's Marcus
And I have a good story to tell
So I hope you have the time
Turn the stereo up and over nine-thousand
And let me say my rhymes about a boy and his mind
Let's go back to when I was five
And I would play Pokémon inside
All day because my siblings and I would fight
When I wasn't even trying
To do anything just be myself
And these games really helped
Ease the pain on my brain
Because there was nothing else
This poor kid all alone
Who was living in a broken home
With dad who loved to drink
Almost every day of the week
And a mother who loved God
And did her best to keep it all
Together through any metaphorical weather
But the devil was in the details
And this home was far from ideal
I hope you appreciate how real
I am to you and you feel
A strange, tingling sensation that results from collaboration
Of the words and the beat that came from my imagination
And as the kid gets older his heart begins to turn colder
And the love in his heart reduced to a bleak somber smolder
He is told he is smart and subsequently set apart
Which starts to impart a mentality of stubbornness and
Narcissism in little Marky
Thing to understand don't be confused I love my family
And although my childhood was tough
It made me who I am see
Never ever would I change my past
Even the memories that are crass
Somethings aren't meant to last
As I stare at myself in the looking glass I think
I'm twenty-two how'd I even make it here
Twenty-two and undecided on a career
Twenty-two and not knowing what to do
Twenty-two and even worse having no clue
Twenty-two and with no sense of motivation
Twenty-two and wanting a love simplification
Twenty-two and trying to make it big
But not with music since this is a part time gig
Clearly not even close to someone with average ability
But I make this music for fun because it means a lot to me
And all I need is one
Not hit song but a person
To tell me that I changed their life in some way before I close the curtain
And we'll see about it then if I'm having fun I'll be wondering
Do I turn away from it all and lock the pen up in a pen
Cause my main goal is to change the world
I want to be the best husband to an amazing girl
Be the best friend that any guy could have
Be the best son to my mom and dad
Be the best at everything that I attempt
Actually I'd settle for great in most life events
But the main thing is I don't want to be like everybody else
I want to be unique and the only copy of myself
So whether it's making music or writing songs
Getting educated, playing basketball
No matter what the role, title, or call
I just want to do it all so
This is just to branch out I know that my lines are trash now
This beat and lyrics are so basic that I might take both trashes out
But practice makes perfect and some day this might be worth it
Or this might be just a waste of time and something that I hope to forget
Yeah and that's it
I like to end confidently
But really though I uh
I have a lot of things
On my mind actually
