Intro:
Falling like some rain drops
Hoping that the pain stops
Falling like some rain drops
Verse:
I'm sitting at a friend's house
My work is done for the day and I’m ready for rest now
20% wow, my phones quite low but I'm listening to Cudi and Frank now
Everything is loud, my ears are gonna pop one day but I'm taking my chance now
Think I might put on Kanye's "Dropout", "4 Your Eyez Only", let the song play out
Nah I chose Kanye the vibes are real
My friends in the kitchen cooking a meal
Can I help? “Nah I got it from here”
I retreat to the room, put the pods in my еar
Some Marvin Gaye, some Luthеr Vandross
I'm scrolling through my phone and I see my man's called
It's my boi, “the party's on, 12 o'clock at my house”
Before I could respond my friend has locked the door with the light out
I'm like what now? “There's a group outside and they're headed right for my house”
I'm like right now? “Ssshh quiet down, I think I saw a few knives out”
“Let us in we want all your stuff
We know you're in there, and don't even think about hiding all the drugs, come on cough em up”
My heart stops and I'm sitting on the floor
That's the sound of the broken door
Now they're headed for where we are
So I get up on the door, playing tug-of-war
I’m tryna keep em out, but there's too many
Overwhelming strength and they're through and he's
Swinging at me with his machete
Cutting up my skin leaving blood dripping
My hands are up, tryna block the hitting
Cuts on my fingers, now they're stinging
Stabs me in the arm, more blood leaking
Take my jumper off, tryna stop the swelling
Every one of them is wearing some sort of mask
Stolen heaps, not much more to grab
My life in front sorta flashed
And the vision I had for life tore in half
And then in one raw motion
He takes a slice and cuts my jaw open
I think I'm gonna die, running out of hope
But then my friend got up and started bolting
Ran through the kitchen through the guns and blades
People crowded in her house taking things
TV's out the house, now they're breaking things
She is running fast as her legs could spring
To the neighbours, dials triple zero then the group of people acting really weird and wanna get up out of there
Took my friends keys, piled into the car and fled the scene
I've lost a lot of blood
I stumble out the house and see the cops come
Asking me all types of questions
Tryna catch my breath, but there is none
I'm outside, look up to the sky and the rain is pouring
Feeling like a drop of water, yea I'm falling
This whole entire verse is just a metaphor
The intruders in the story are like my bad thoughts
I should've never let em in
Corrupting me since 10
Led to depression
That's the blood that was leaking
Funny how it connects in
I was at my lowest
Falling like a drop of rain
Til I hit the pavement
Outro:
Til I hit the pavement
There were people that I thought was with me, nah but they left
I've been stuck here for a while, my mind, it doesn't make sense
It's been kinda hard to get a grasp on it and comprehend
So I lift (so I lift), so I lift
Learn to grow in my environment, it gets better than this
I've been in the ground a while, it's time to change how I exist
I'm sick of feeling like I'm trapped forever in this mindset
So I lift (so I lift), so I lift
Learn to grow in my environment, it gets better than this
I've been in the ground a while, it's time to change how I exist
And so I lift up out the dirt and choose the path I thought I'd missed
And try again...
