Damn ain’t seen my boy Shane fo’ a long ass minute
Dyin o’ depression, got me so influenced
Shane probably saved me from from those horrible thought
Probly wouldn’t be a rappa, if he hadn’t a taught
How to vent my feelings and spirit through song
It’s been a good long minute, ain’t heard from him for too long
He used to stop the regression, fo’ the time we had I wasn’t in depression
Not e’en the soul o’ music can heal the stressing
He was the one that gave me the power to look inside o’ me
Now it feels like I’m hidin sometin that deeply confides in me
--look now this faggot’s tryna talk to me
Chorus
A conversation wit myself, I can’t feel myself
I gotta save the burnin world, but can’t e’en save myself
Story o’ pain, belive my soul is dead
My heart rains, an’ I can’t control my head
(repeat)
Go head Aphiah, just close ya eyes
Let ur intestines rip out, let ur soul cry
You knew me fo’ awhile, don’t see why you so shy
Hungry an’ eatin, I’m eatin ur soul
Nigga I see you creepin, don’t try an’ get bold
Tryna get rid o’ me, chea this ur depression talking
Alive – an’ – walkin
Gotta swallow this burden
The – shock – is in
Oh you havin problems, thought you’d be used to it
Just die Aphiah, just cry Aphiah
Just die Aphiah, just cry Aphiah
Chorus
I though prayer changes things, whats wrong Mahalia God ain’t respondin
Thought this was a game, whats wrong Jesus my body sho’ ain’t spawning
Yo Shane ain’t he, so who the fuck is I to call on
A heart beat drops/I see the clock/tick then tock/acid trip it seems/my soul went fo’ walk/I’m still cryin/an’ ain’t a damn thing I can do/look Aphiah/I need you
Just a one on one chat, no depression involved
Who am I, a question eternally unsolved
Chorus
I can’t escape it, it feels like the devil’s got a lock on
Me, my soul can’t escape myself
Myself, can’t escape my soul
Sometin wrong wit everything, an’ nuthins full
Nothings right, something missin
Black as night, what am I missin
What am I not seein, why do I stay so cold an’ lonely
I’m missin myself, so even I’m not my one and only
Naw homie, I ain’t even only
(screams)
