Do You See Me Now

Never thought that I'd still be here, but let's see where this road leads

I decided this time I'll give you the whole me

And if you really knew me, then you know the old me

Was probably the hottest out of my city but got cold feet

I never thought they'd accept me for who I am

Let alone respect me as a man

Cuz at times I get emotional, and we all know as a black man

You ain't supposed to show, any sign of weakness so I

Keep my bifocals low, so you don't see the pain in my eyes

Nevermind the fact they bloodshot from crying

You probably thought I was smoking tho, and I reply, "You right"

Knowing I never smoked before, but I keep up the lie
