If I Die Young Lyrics by Mistah Kye

2022

[Chorus]
I know I ain't perfect
So I'm writing songs tryna cleanse my past
I pray and I hope that it's worth it
Cus I know I'm a lil screwed up
And my head's fucked up
I need more than a surgeon
But the world's too fucked had to alter my brain
Now I got loose screws in my head
Cuh I'd rather be dead than trapped in a circus
So... So if I die young
Can you carry the weight of my name
And promise to stay cuh this life is tough
And tell me that you ain't giving up
Cus I know that it hurts way more than love
And tell me that you love my soul
I been writing these rhymes and feeling low
Cuh the old me's dead but I still feel cold
[Verse 1]
Everybody dies one day so I live my day
Like this, in the present
And sometimes it rains wen I'm feeling pain
I just rap it all up and I keep my distance
That's why you hear me drop every second
They ask me why I don't get mentioned
It's cus I rap real shit, I don't think bout hits
All now I been sending a message
And I been hurt so much
Now you think that I'm perfect
Really I ain't inna the drama
They tell me I'm deserving the world
All over a girl, I been a disaster
Drowning my thoughts with lyrics
They can't even hear it, fuck it just get me a plaster
I bleed so much that I'm drowning the plaster
I've ripped out flesh so maybe it's karma cus'
[Chorus]
I know I ain't perfect
So I'm writing songs tryna cleanse my past
I pray and I hope that it's worth it
Cus I know I'm a lil screwed up
And my head's fucked up
I need more than a surgeon
But the world's too fucked had to alter my brain
Now I got loose screws in my head
Cuh I'd rather be dead than trapped in a circus
So... So if I die young
Can you carry the weight of my name
And promise to stay cuh this life is tough
And tell me that you ain't giving up
Cus I know that it hurts way more than love
And tell me that you love my soul
I been writing these rhymes and feeling low
Cuh the old me's dead but I still feel cold
[Verse 2]
You know I been going through mental stress
I would say I'm depressed but I ain't even pressed
And I got so much space in my head
I don't need backup cuh my feelings compressed
I cloud up my mind with thoughts
There's 48 laws Talk less & conceal my intent
Watching my bars fly over your head
I got birds-eye view when I'm surfing the net
Cus everybody talks and I just show action
I spend more on family and friends
And then I invest, give myself a fraction
And if I had a girl I'd spoil her too
Like my mum love see her reaction
Cus I know that life's too short
If they take me away then I won't respawn
So I spend my pay and carry support
And low-key man I miss my therapist
Money buys freedom and gives me a chance
Bailed me out my emotions I couldn't control them
Cuh my life's been hard
I still Reminisce bout' the girl that I left
And it sucks, it was love but I broke her heart
Really wanna leave a legacy on this place
But what if one day I take drugs cus'
[Chorus]
I know I ain't perfect
So I'm writing songs tryna cleanse my past
I pray and I hope that it's worth it
Cus I know I'm a lil screwed up
And my head's fucked up
I need more than a surgeon
But the world's too fucked had to alter my brain
Now I got loose screws in my head
Cuh I'd rather be dead than trapped in a circus
So... So if I die young
Can you carry the weight of my name
And promise to stay cuh this life is tough
And tell me that you ain't giving up
Cus I know that it hurts way more than love
And tell me that you love my soul
I been writing these rhymes and feeling low
Cuh the old me's dead but I still feel cold
