[Verse 1]
Is it a shame to have skeletons in ya closet, I mean..
We all have, 'cause that’s nature right?
Nothing like a perfect man or perfect woman
Nah, just the desire to be a perfect man or perfect woman
And it’s only right to strive for it
In a world where dumb n***as hold triggers and knifes
Make you pay the price with your life
Shit happens on a daily basis
So I guess that i’m just showin' you the basics of life..
A life controlled by the media
Man, don’t underestimate what it can to do ya
Makes you wonder what’s the right thing to do
You don’t know when there are so many voices in you
And they’re all saying something else
It’s a process we go through to find ourselves
'Cause you never know, who you are
'Till you made some mistakes and your soul got scars and you lost all your faith
But.. it’s always for the better that we change I guess
How come we can’t think clear when shit gets dangerous?
Like pow! Another soul lost..
And you really can’t believe that it’s your fault
Cuz you ain’t crazy
You're a good man
Friends and family just can’t understand
How can a young man pull over a trigger when he’s never hurt a soul before?
I’m trying to figure out..
We’re sinners from the beginning, all I know
So no matter who you are, guess it’s always gonna show
We’re sinners from the beginning, all I know
So no matter who you are..

[Hook]
We can’t keep runnin’ away from ourselves
Somebody told me things ain’t black or white, they’re just grey
And I know that’s really real
We can’t keep runnin’ away from ourselves
Somebody told me things ain’t black or white, they’re just grey
Or is it just the way I feel?

[Verse 2]
I keep antagonizing what I really need & what I should keep close
It ain’t you nah it’s really me..
I ain’t perfect you know that
That excuse I have been usin
To my advantage too many times, it’s straight abusin'
I feel the devil on my path as I walk
The devil is just a metaphor for our dark thoughts uh
I need em sometimes, man I ain’t gon lie
I ain’t finna die from a little piece of the devils pie
You can call me selfish I was born alone, alone I’ll die
Now I got these people all up in my face askin why
I don’t even try to do right when I wasn’t even tryna do wrong, damn..
Can I live? Can I live?
I been takin’ too much, I should try to give maybe
What’s point of livin’ just for ya self?
Then again what’s the meaning of life..?

[Hook]
We can’t keep runnin’ away from ourselves
Somebody told me things ain’t black or white, they’re just grey
And I know that’s really real
We can’t keep runnin’ away from ourselves
Somebody told me things ain’t black or white, they’re just grey
Or is it just the way I feel?

[Bridge]
The way I feel..
Is it just the way I feel oh..?
Is it how I feel..?
'Way I feel..

[Hook]
We can’t keep runnin’ away from ourselves
Somebody told me things ain’t black or white, they’re just grey
And I know that’s really real
We can’t keep runnin’ away from ourselves
Somebody told me things ain’t black or white, they’re just grey
Or is it just the way I feel?
