Adolescence
[Verse: Byron]
I had a dream that I woke up dead
Constantly stressing as to whether all my hope’s misled
Sidetracked after realizing we both just bled
Cold sweating, watching your messages go unread
As I hear your laughter, it hit me, never knowing what happened
I’m second guessing my decision to go forward with rapping
Love was secondary, or maybe I was afraid
Maybe I didn’t want to lose you, and was foolish in ways
Uncontrollable due to circumstances proven
Portrayed by older uncles as a lesson not to use you or sway between different women
Maybe I’m being too cautious
Maybe it never dawned never dating too was a loss
And as I reminisce on mistakes that’ll hinder my vision
Intuition displaying every single chance I was given
Like all this other drama, that’s something I couldn’t stomach
But with 99 problems, I always kept it 100 for you
[Hook: Byron]
Lately, I’ve been hearing a lot of things that I don’t agree with
Basically the drama’s a product of people I don’t believe in
Maybe this is why all the gossip surrounding me is a secret
(I don’t even know why this is bothering me)
[Verse: Byron]
Instead of fighting the rumors and diversions of many
I’m thinking whether I’d be proud to be a virgin at twenty
Cause I’m my own person, but people are looking at me
And with the damage that’s been done, you’ll see a stem in the street
So if I’m different, then keep your attention off me
I’d rather carve a path and watch you dig a ditch
Because your favorite verse is costly
Love or lust, adolescence put in perspective
Fortunately, I was influenced not to be reckless
That’s off rip
Our goal is defeat the gutter then feed the gutter
Our souls will make the reaper stutter with this off switch
Because that’s all I ever needed
The physical presence of a woman’s the form of a demon
Silhouettes of us dancing to the sound of an echo
Better known as rumors dispersing from these clowns in falsetto
Now let your thoughts linger for a moment
Cause let’s be honest, there’s no breaking us if you ain’t notice
And that’s a promise
[Hook: Byron]
[Outro: Byron]
You made a great point when you brought up how I seemingly never rap about what makes me happy. These people, my fans, and even people who aren't fans really may think I’m always angry. Um, I’ll explain it this way. I’m happy with my life, but I’m not happy with where the world is, and where it’s heading. I kind of feel like the world itself is bigger than just my life; which is why I only speak on mostly negative experiences. People need to learn from them, and refrain from making the exact same mistakes that we’ve been making since forever. I know its human nature, but sheesh...
