And the World Is a Mess
• Written by LyricalX
I used to think the world was great
But everyone was in a bad state
And the world wants to take the things you love away
Just how it made people's heartbreak
And I admit, my life wasn't good
And I swear, for a while, I lived in the hood
I had nowhere to go, I shouldn't have
Life was bad, I was depressed and sad
Wanted to turn back and backtrack
I hated living like that
And I admit I fucked up really bad
I miss you so much Mom, fuck my dad
He was the worst dude, wish he'd get off the crack
So I would have a good life, I wouldn't have anything to rap
About, everyone would doubt me, nobody would allow me
To see the real world 'cause they down me
They hated bein' around me, I hated theme, they wanted to drown me
They tryna clown me, talkin' trash about me
Tryna go on without me, life was tryna hurt me
There was never we, it was just me
I hated everyone, they couldn't trust me
They'd misjudge me, and never love me
Never instruct me in the right direction, they'd interrupt me
And it disgusts me, never hugged me
Never would help they'd call me a dummy
The world was messed up, it wasn't funny
I fuckin' had no money, uh
And the world is a mess, I tried my best
And the world is a mess, it would make me hurt
The world would never support me, it would hurt me
And the world is a mess, I started talkin' less
And the world is a mess, and I was under a lot of stress
Depressed on the set, lost all my progress
And the world is a mess, nobody gets me, I wasn't blessed
Here we are, playin' chess, see a girl in a red dress
She talks to me, I tried my best
Little did I know I would regret
And the world is a mess, and she recorded everything I said
She sent it to my fake friends
And the world is a mess, and I was broken, upset
She was fake just like my life again
And the world is a mess, everyone would try to change the subject
And the world is a mess, when I walked in, everyone would disrespect
And the world is a mess, lookin' at me laughin', sayin' I have nothing left
And the world is a mess, and I'd never get there yet
And the world is a mess, and I would never be a success
And the world is a mess, tell me why I'm a reject
And the world is a mess, wish me and my friends never met
They never defend or protect they offend and send threats
They browse the internet, and they always neglect
They do bets to get money, see the sunset
The world is unfair, it's a nightmare
I always would get kicked off of teams
Seemed like nobody loved me
The world was against me
They tryna pressure me, stressin' me
Wipin' my memory, and my treasuries
And the rest of me, they're more than I can ever be
That's a fact, they don't even remember me
They think I'm cool now, they'll forever be
A bad part of me, "pardon me, you startled me!"
"What's your name boy? Don't dishearten me"
I say my name, they say, "Oh nice name! Oh yeah, what do you play"
I say, "I play games a lot of games, how can you not remember me?"
"What do you mean?" they say to me
"Don't act confused, you know who I am, I know you"
"So tell me why the fuck you think I'm cool"
"Back when we were in school you called me a fool"
"Now you come here, don't remember me, and break my rules"
They say, "Rules? Nah man, it's not like that, don't be so cruel!"
I say, "Don't fuckin' talk to me saying that shit, wanna have a dual?"
They say "Woah woah woah, don't be so brutal!"
I say "Fuck off bro if you ain't gonna be truthful"
They say, "Sorry bro, I know you're youthful"
I'm sick of it
And the world is a mess, I wasn't ready but I said yes
And the world is a mess, I feel like I can't express
My feelings, there's a lot of stress on my chest
Fall like the rest, failin' a test, super stressed
Trying to help myself but it fails so I become depressed even more
And the world is a mess, what am I living for?
And the world is a mess, I was poor
And the world is a mess, kickin' down the doors
And the world is a mess, I was for sure
And the world is a mess, dyin' in this world on the floor
And the world is a mess, tryna figure out what this feeling is
And the world is a mess, I've never had it before
And the world is a mess, washed up into shore
So I explore, I'm becomin' mature
My heart still can't be restored
But I don't care about them anymore
I was never theirs, I was never yours
Shed a tear, insecure, yeah
And the world is a mess, I'm trying to get far
And the world is a mess, behind all these big stars
And the world is a mess, and for years, my friend was behind bars
And the world is a mess, loved him with my heart
And the world is a mess, my fake friends took that and ripped it apart
And the world is a mess, can't believe I didn't notice this from the start
And the world is a mess, they said, "You fucked up so hard"
All I did was try to avoid you, yeah
I got so many things to worry about
Like criminals, people who use people for clout
So many more to name, so many more to find out
I'm wonderin', how do I get out?
I said that out loud
I need to get out, this isn't working out
I am not close now, they turn me down
I scream and shout
I gotta slow down
My life's upside down
People badmouth, people taking the wrong route
People who doubt, life is turnin' south
People who I'm around, people who are in my town
Life is foul, it makes me frown
I cannot get out
Can you help me now?
Why do people stare at me and say "Wow"
Am I really that ugly? Raisin' eyebrows
Will this ever work out? Can I stop it now?
