I was raised in a house full of cross-wearing Christians
Teaching me that sinners ain't the ones that are grinnin'
But don't think it was a bad thing, cuz I was raised right
Grandparents taught me etiquette and I treated everyone alright
Everyone was equal no matter the color of their skin
Women weren't made to serve or always cook in the kitchen
Arguments didn't exist just to prove you were right
Heated words were exchanged to change the direction of the light
Ideas were meant to grow just as we do as individuals
I was just a little punk confused and mostly indescribable
I grew up to be humble and could barely afford shoes
I ain't never done drugs, but that's the life I choose
Justina V pointed out the world is run mostly by guys
They only listen to talent through the pits of their eyes
Judge women by bra size and the curve in their thighs
What the fuck does it take to make the world open it's eyes
I'm sick, fuck it, what happened to all my innocence
There's bullying in schools and a hail of gunfire on innocents
Women getting raped and men walking, no blame
I'm breathing in the same air of these assholes with no shame
Why am I here, these aren't all the rules I was taught
Crime doesn't pay but how are these officers getting bought?
Most of my friends have been cheated on by some idiot male
They were thinking with their dicks and I just want to impale
I was raised to love strangers and friends like they were fam
Now I'm deleting hundreds of social media posts pushed out like spam
I'm just trying to cope and do the best that I can
Someone tell me how to get by, what's the plan?
I'm calm now, took a deep breath and I'm ready
Prepared to share love and offer conversations a bit heady
Philosophize on the morals and etiquette that we should practice
Not stretching the truths and flipping laws like acrobatics
Respecting women and not just commenting on their tits
Actually looking deeper in their chest and not how their ass fits
In a pair of tight jeans or on their daily Instagrams
You wouldn't ask that shit to the face of your Grams
Why does the world act so shallow when the oceans are deep?
Why do we not appreciate beauty and have to act like a creep?
I ain't got a girl but it's mostly because I do not belong
I'm a black sheep in a world where it's popular to be wrong
I didn't talk to the waitress because the past five guys harassed
The model on social media has millions of followers amassed
I'm just a nobody from a small town raised with dignity
The world's making me crazy I might have to plead insanity
I've made my mistakes and I still know how to learn
You're pouring gas on this fire just to watch it all burn
I'm panicking now, my lungs can barely breathe
Society treats mental health like a baby still trying to teethe
I'm asking you for just a little bit of compassion
Maybe to find a girl through which we can share a passion
But now it's time to rest my heavily weary eyes in my bed
And pray to Jesus to save my soul... or leave me dead
