It Feels Like
[Intro]
It feels like
The weight of the world to me
It feels like
I'm trapped where I don't want to be
It feels like
I'm regrettin' just where I've been
It feels like
[Verse 1]
Another day goes trippin' away
Where the same feel of hate [?]
That you dropped on your back
Like a silent attack
To everything that you feel when you're black
And the people around you fall in
They call in to make sure you haven't fallen
Every day is a constant [relay?]
Of everyone in your life
In your face saying "Are you okay?"
No, I'm not fine
Every second is a record of why
I live my life never doin' things right
And though I try
The pain stays the same
[?] shame [?] of my own name
Look into the mirror in fear
That what I see is the cause of another shit year
I hear that other people think I'm livin' like a star
But life ain't easy when you hate who you are
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the darkness comes to take me away again
[Chorus]
It feels like
The weight of the world to me
It feels like
I'm trapped where I don't want to be
It feels like
I'm regrettin' just where I've been
It feels like
I'm drowning inside again
[Verse 2]
Hard to say who I really am
I've got closet full of thoughts
That you wouldn't understand
Got an honest problem
In that even though I try
It all gets simple when I act like I'm fine
So I smile and laugh
Like I'm attackin' every fact
That I can't hold back anymore
'Cause I'm sure that if it [?]
Inside I might find
That the light disappears and it's leaving me blind
It's not okay
No person should be livin' this way
[?] in everything that they say
And what a [?] that the people really knew
What they choose to see
[?] when you're fightin' through
I need help
I'm sick and I know it
And I've gotten really good at
Making sure I don't show it
And if people see me
They feel happy
And all I've ever wanted was to be
The man they want me to be
[Pre-Chorus]
Now the darkness comes to take me away again
[Chorus]
It feels like
The weight of the world to me
It feels like
I'm trapped where I don't want to be
It feels like
I'm regrettin' just where I've been
It feels like
I'm drowning inside again
[Bridge]
Now I know
There's something wrong with me
Happiness
Only appears in dreams
[?]
Bury it back inside
[?]
It feels like
It feels like
It feels like
It feels like
Drowning inside again
[Chorus]
It feels like
The weight of the world to me
It feels like
I'm trapped where I don't want to be
It feels like
I'm regrettin' just where I've been
It feels like
I'm drowning inside again
[Chorus Refrain]
It feels like
There isn't anything that's real
It feels like
I've got a wound that will never heal
It feels like
I'm regrettin' just where I've been
It feels like
I'm drowning inside again
It feels like
The weight of the world to me
It feels like
I'm trapped where I don't want to be
It feels like
I'm regrettin' just where I've been
It feels like
[Verse 1]
Another day goes trippin' away
