Broken Lyrics by Pres

For the Record

2019

[Verse 1]
The world’s weight up on my chest got me going crazy
It’s crazy when your born blessed is when you turn out lazy
That’s a process that I will never digest
I seem to think that I would be better but that’s just a maybe
Because I wouldn’t be the man I am without my father
And he wouldn’t be the man he is with his
My dad broke the cycle he decide to work harder
And I followed in his footsteps this is
The cycle now and I hope to pass it down
But at the same time I’m steady thinking how
Am I gon’ raise him in the riches don’t like how that sound
Most of the legends come from dirt that turned their life around
But I didn’t I came up in the middle
Yet I had the perspective see life’s riddle
It’s all about habits pick some good one’s and be cool
I feel bad for all these hoodlums that get fooled

[Chorus]
Too many broken minds, too many broken men
Too many broken ties, too many broken friends
Too many broke and hide, the feelings they got within
World is broken, why, ‘cause the cycle goes again
Too many broken minds, too many broken men
Too many broken ties, too many broken friends
Too many broke and hide, the feelings they got within
World is broken, why, ‘cause the cycle goes again

[Verse 2]
Also, I got one more thing to touch on
We’re really childish for acting like we’re strong
‘Cause everybody gets hit life goes on
But it’s not on the same level it was once on
Unravel and battle the things that got me rattled
I tackle my hassles so I can go travel and dabble
In some new things so mind ain’t shackled
I try to grapple and baffle my problems but they fragile
Everything’s in your head, ‘cause your mind controls your body
If you ever sleeping on yourself, well you got me
All of these people have confidence, wish I could copy
Their brain and put it into mine so I’ll live proudly
But that don’t happen in this day
My Pop’s told me that black people don’t do therapy
I said why, he said we couldn’t afford it
I said it’s free talk to your friends it’s so rewarding

[Chorus]
Too many broken minds, too many broken men
Too many broken ties, too many broken friends
Too many broke and hide, the feelings they got within
World is broken, why, ‘cause the cycle goes again
Too many broken minds, too many broken men
Too many broken ties, too many broken friends
Too many broke and hide, the feelings they got within
World is broken, why, ‘cause the cycle goes again
