Lyrics

(Verse 1)
How the times have changed, still don't know if it's right
Now a bunch of people know me but I haven't shown the fight
From the bottom to the top and back 'cause I can't handle it
You think this is hard work? I'm just rambling
And everybody in my circle knows that I'm the one
Everybody knows that I can make it I just haven't won
Contemplating if I should just spit these lines and save 'em
Or if should go back to notepad and spend hours to rephrase 'em
I don't know if anyone would care about the things I do
'Cause not every bar will make it, you don't know what I hid from you
Keep telling me my rap is sh*t my flow is crap my bars are weak
Five years ago I would've cared and people changed the way I speak
Rapping now in English 'cause the language's second nature
But in my heart I'm Austrian and thinking I'm a failure
You hear my voice on random beats and think that I got style and sh*t
But I'm a phantom in reality - I swear I'm fighting it
Not talking 'bout self harm, the suicidal thoughts
The friends that I lost, the things that I've bought
'Cause this is from the heart I'm sharing how I feel inside
Life has just been passing by and I can't tell if I'm alright
No luck with girls, nothing's ever going right
Tell me I'm not in love with you, hide my feelings deep inside
Everybody knows you got a special place now in my heart
For some things that you said and not just 'cause you're painting art
Back to other topics let's talk 'bout the twisted f**k I am
'Cause I'm so bad at making friends, I'm the first to make amends
Sick of losing friends these days 'cause I know they ain't comin' back
Sick of people joining me 'cause they think that I'm runnin' rap
No f**k that - I know I'm a sick f**k on the beat
But still got a hundred miles to go before I hit the peak
Now would you please f**k off I'm not in need of sympathy
You should be my friend 'cause I have none but I disagree
