The Issue Lyrics by Vanessa J

0

Why is it that people
Can't tell a girl that they love them
Convince yourself you're above her
Materialism all above us
Work 40 hours a week to buy
A benz that corrodes in 40 years time
Love lasts forever
But ya'll still be chasing dimes
Then their kids compete for
The hottest whip, dopest shoes, niggas turning green
Small city, nearly no opportunity
Hardly anyone made it
To make their dreams instead selling it getting faded
Cause if we wanna fly gotta catch a plane ride on the other side and see the big apple
And even then no guarantee you'll succeed what you aimed to achieve
So we endure and breathe
All on our knees
We'll work so hard, get the cash
Climb ladders we won't stop
Get Half way then look up
100 white men still on top

I'm gone

Boyfriend cheats on her
Makes her feel all deserted
Start to question herself badly like is she really worth it?
Starts acting bad, self esteem to an all time low
So boys don't complain about us when you're running half the show
No patience, they can't be bothered waiting
6 iPhones down more kids procrastinating
Don't let him have it you're too good
Media lost her innocence
Emotions got all rough
Body matured too early
But mentality can't keep up
Kissed a boy, you let him get it
Thought that that shit was true love
Magazines like propaganda
Kill to be in model's club
She wants him so bad
Sent a pic, now she's stuffed

Nothing is true
They born with one face and end up with two
I hope heaven is real cause these people as fake as prime minister promises
Bible said to be honest
So I hope
Joshua, Ruth and Sam dont judge it
You all ain't saints but still judging
Bullying and acting all cruel
Talking so much but even don't try and
Walk in his shoes
I wander why i write all these verses
Cursed society hard but hardly cursing
My bars are like stars
Messy in the sky trying to figure it all out
Fuck it i tried
Maybe one day they'll open their eyes
Let them see through their lies
But for now I'll keep living normal and for them that's no surprise
Sometimes I feel like life's too much
Just wanna light it up
Ditch the books my minds too full
Or am I playing up ?
Drink away
My cups too full
But I'll still be pouring up
I'm gone
