The System Lyrics by NANG

Ralph Hardy Presents: Growing Pains

2015

[Oscar #worldpeace]

What do you do with all this pain? Do you rage?
What do you do with all this rage? Do you pray?
When you’re running out of things to say
How do you find an early escape
Tryna run away from a basic wage
I won’t be a phase that eventually fades
I ain't scared of my flaws
I’m scared of the floor
I’m scared of my girlfriend breaking up with me saying she don’t love me no more
This is ventilation from frustration - who’s finding the cure?

Do you know the years I’ve spent
Trying to make myself content
And I don’t know if I’m there yet
I can’t get back what I invest
But that’s the risk I accept
Pray to God before I rest
I give my all when I attempt
And I don’t care what happens next

And I don’t care what happens next
And I don’t care what happens next
And I don’t care what happens next
And I don’t care what happens next

What the fuck do we work so hard for? To die?
What the fuck do I give my heart for? Just to get by?
Parts of me die when I swallow my pride
Run off the pain, never needed a ride
Took one step to the rest of my life
Taking my time just to get shit right
‘Cause that’s what we’re like now
Fuck your taste ‘cause we don’t vouch
I stood in my cap and gown
Trying to make my mother proud
I hope that ain't changing now
I wish I could change it round
I weren’t ever happy then
I’m surely ain't happy now

I wanna wash away my sins
‘Cause look at the pain it brings
Got lost but I made it in
Ask God can I lose or win?
I think I need a shrink
