My Story Lyrics by Simplisity

This Is Me

2019

[Dialog]
This is my story, as I go on it might change but I'll let you be the first to hear what I have to say
Now listen cause it goes just like this
[Verse 1]
My mother texts me knowing that I still listen
And she's always got her foot out, guilt-tripping
Dad saying I'm just like her, failed living
Told me pack my bags and leave, I know I'll still miss him
Yet I got a place to stay and I hate to say
I think about leaving home almost every day
I'll hate myself if I ever got to step away
He's been there for but there's only so much I can take
I'm only a man you know that I ain't a god
Though I walk the halls like I ain't a fraud
Live a life that most of y'all wouldn't think I've got
Cause I got some clothes don't mean I'm not shot
I've got some demons but I guess we all do
But try to walk an inch inside my shoes
You'll trip and fall just like I always do
But get back up and because it's worth the journey I choose
[Chorus]
Why does life always seem to let me down
It's been weeks since my face hasn't had a frown
Why does life always seem to let me down
It's been weeks since my face hasn't had a frown
Why does life always seem to let me down
It's been weeks since my face hasn't had a frown
Why does life always seem to let me down
Why does life always seem to let me down
[Verse 2]
Saturday deep talks with my best friend
He always lifts me up when I'm at my end
Pour some drinks and the talking just never ends
But go again because the pain also never ends
I live day to day sometimes I don't know the point
Same thing every day my life become disappointing
There's no goal in life don't know how people feel rejoiced
Only thing I do is make up stories with my voice
I better make it if I don't I'll be suicidal
I have some thoughts that I don't think are very normal
They scare me most when I'm not with people I know
Cause at some point I might carry through this spiral
My mother texts me knowing that I still listen
And she's always got her foot out, guilt-tripping
Dad saying I'm just like her, failed living
Told me pack my bags and leave, I know I'll still miss him
[Verse 3]
Why does life always seem to let me down
I don't know, but I know that I can't fix this frown
Go to school, put on a mask, I've been looking like a clown
Tell the voice in my head imma have to let you down
I've been talking to myself they tell me take a look around
There's so many people here and there's a new kid in town
They call him michael he's from Ktown and I think he stole your crown
Stole your limelight and your number and he ain't from round town
Put some work in you're gon have to shut him down
If you don't they gon laugh and your gonna break down
I'll tell them its okay I've been grinding, working on my sound
Working daily on an album and I'm happy to announce
This is me its got no drop date but be sure it’s gonna pound
Just like Joyner on my 508 like an ultrasound
Its the hottest stuff you've heard trust my word its renown
When you listen it's gon blow up your whole surround sound
[Chorus]
Why does life always seem to let me down
It's been weeks since my face hasn't had a frown
Why does life always seem to let me down
It's been weeks since my face hasn't had a frown
Why does life always seem to let me down
It's been weeks since my face hasn't had a frown
Why does life always seem to let me down
Why does life always seem to let me down
