Byron Henderson - Adolescence lyrics

[Verse: Byron] I had a dream that I woke up dead Constantly stressing as to whether all my hope's misled Sidetracked after realizing we both just bled Cold sweating, watching your messages go unread As I hear your laughter, it hit me, never knowing what happened I'm second guessing my decision to go forward with rapping Love was secondary, or maybe I was afraid Maybe I didn't want to lose you, and was foolish in ways Uncontrollable due to circumstances proven Portrayed by older uncles as a lesson not to use you or sway between different women Maybe I'm being too cautious Maybe it never dawned never dating too was a loss And as I reminisce on mistakes that'll hinder my vision Intuition displaying every single chance I was given Like all this other drama, that's something I couldn't stomach But with 99 problems, I always kept it 100 for you [Hook: Byron] Lately, I've been hearing a lot of things that I don't agree with Basically the drama's a product of people I don't believe in Maybe this is why all the gossip surrounding me is a secret (I don't even know why this is bothering me) [Verse: Byron] Instead of fighting the rumors and diversions of many I'm thinking whether I'd be proud to be a virgin at twenty Cause I'm my own person, but people are looking at me And with the damage that's been done, you'll see a stem in the street So if I'm different, then keep your attention off me I'd rather carve a path and watch you dig a ditch Because your favorite verse is costly Love or lust, adolescence put in perspective Fortunately, I was influenced not to be reckless That's off rip Our goal is defeat the gutter then feed the gutter Our souls will make the reaper stutter with this off switch Because that's all I ever needed The physical presence of a woman's the form of a demon Silhouettes of us dancing to the sound of an echo Better known as rumors dispersing from these clowns in falsetto Now let your thoughts linger for a moment Cause let's be honest, there's no breaking us if you ain't notice And that's a promise [Hook: Byron] [Outro: Byron] You made a great point when you brought up how I seemingly never rap about what makes me happy. These people, my fans, and even people who aren't fans really may think I'm always angry. Um, I'll explain it this way. I'm happy with my life, but I'm not happy with where the world is, and where it's heading. I kind of feel like the world itself is bigger than just my life; which is why I only speak on mostly negative experiences. People need to learn from them, and refrain from making the exact same mistakes that we've been making since forever. I know its human nature, but sheesh...
