Lyrics
I was just a kid
Living in a grown up world just tryna live
Figuring it all out whether it's a hit or miss
Knew I was bound to make mistakes but didn't commit
All the down times how could I've anticipate it
My heart and my mind I separated
All the trust I had I lacerated
Guess it was my fault all along they dictated
Too many times I let them play with my heart
They twist it, used it, and tore it apart
Left my broken dreams on this boulevard
When I had enough made me at fault
Where were these so called "friends" I had from the start
One flick of a switch left me in the dark
My final words was their first remark
Led to believe it was the end of my story arc
For the love of God if I had a chance
I'd go back in time to make amends
To my younger self where I was content
Believed everyone I blindly trusted was a friend
I was so young with no common sense
But the action was mine alone in the end
My own happiness I tried to prevent
My own mental was my punishment
But can I become the person who I was once before
Keep sinking deeper in the abyss or become something so much more
I can't keep blaming myself for all the things I can't control
How many more of these scars must I receive until my sins atone
The more I keep blaming myself the deeper I bury my wounds in salt
Which is why I locked my heart deep in a vault covered in concrete walls
Used to think I had it all but even Rome was bound to fall
So I'll put my agony in these songs so you can understand the message cause
For the longest I lived with my regrets
Tried to move on but it's trapped in my head
Can't take it anymore
But I can go on knowing I tried my best
These statues don't move no matter how much I pray (I can't move)
They're staring at me laughing at every single mistake (I can't breathe)
I was just a kid but I'm done being the arbiter (I can't move)
Done being the one to blame (I can't breathe)
Can I still believe in myself
Even when I'm so down
Can I still see the sky
With my head up in the clouds
How can I stay motivated
When my depressive disorder is so profound
How can anyone hear me
When my anxiety won't let me scream for help
Looking back, just a lost soul, with no help or proper guidance
Wish someone would've hugged me but instead just made some terrible decisions
Everyday when I try to be myself, I keep running into these walls of depression
In reality I feel like a fraud when they say they're influenced by my existence
Looked in the mirror the other day
Spoke to the devil as we conversate
No matter how much momma prays
The suicidal thoughts won't go away
All the wrong doings I'm the one to blame
Told me all the bullets taste so great
Said I only get five seconds of fame
The only thing looking back is a reflection of hate
I feel so lifeless flowing down the river
Who can I blame for all my trauma when I'm the one who delivered
Wore all these mask but I'm not getting any better
How am I a role model when I'm painted as a sinner
For the longest I lived with my regrets
Tried to move on but it's trapped in my head
Can't take it anymore
But I can go on knowing I tried my best
These statues don't move no matter how much I pray (I can't move)
They're staring at me laughing at every single mistake (I can't breathe)
I was just a kid but I'm done being the arbiter (I can't move)
Done being the one to blame (I can't breathe)
