Exhale Lyrics by Cihtym

What Hides Underneath the Surface

2022

Verse -

Uh huh yeah growing up man school sucked
Hated feeling stupid all because i couldn't define what a word was
Or calculate some math problem that i've only heard once
Or list off who made contributions changing how this world runs
Yeah of course i wasn't dumb
But the way many treated me always felt i wasn't good enough
The few friends that i had tried to keep my hopes high
Funny most of em were dopin' up
Knowing i don't smoke the stuff
Told em don't offer they abide
Then the one who i was closest to in middlе school had thoughts he might be bi
Told him that i've had thеm too even though it was a lie
Just so he could have some peace at mind
Sayin at that time it wasn't so accepted
Closest thing to a brother ever since he died still feel his presence
That friendship hasn't lessened
Still get dreams he survived that day he wrecked and
Wake up sometimes with tears in eyes he was a blessing man
Yeah if there's a will there's a way
He was living proof that anybody on this earth could change
I believe every single life is worth the same
Not one to judge who should instantly just burst in flames
What hides underneath the surface its pretty certain here
It makes us stronger to persevere through the worst of fears
Everything bottled up is emerging anyone listenin' is the first to hear
Feel like i got a purpose here
Seventh grade math teacher thought i was worthless
Said i was a waste of breath all because she had plans to quit that year
What makes it really weird is she was the mother of a girl that i had a crush on
So any chance just disappeared
Remember this one chick who kept on gropin' me
Wasn't my type guess she didn't get the memo when i told her leave
Till one day i totally snapped with raw thoughts
Right to her face till she started cryin' uncontrollably
And to this day i still feel bad for her
She was in the wrong but i still feel sad for her
Maybe my standards were set to high
If i seen her with different eyes she wouldn't of tried so hard
And i could have found a liking for her
Now a days personality is what i'm liking more of
Compared to when all i cared about is if the girl liked was lookin great
To an extent my standards have changed
My manners improved as the attitude tamed
Now i'm taking any avenue to get back into the roots where i came
Then exhale through this meditation as i let out the pain fr
