[Verse 1]
Born in the News at 3:09 in the noon
Some days, I feel sorta blind in this room
As if I left it all behind, in the back of my mind
Maybe I could have tried, wiped the tears that I cried
At age 4, I knew I had felt the world in my hand
And by 12, I must have started up with this plan
I honed this pa**ion and made it happen
I dropped the front and started rapping
[Hook]
I don't wanna think without you
I don't wanna breathe around you
Because seeing is still believing
So what is a heart worth beating?
[Chorus]
Images that bring me back to myself
Without these, I would have been somebody else
You tell me about time, I don't remember your name
It's been awhile, so, was I the only one to blame?
[Verse 2]
My story was the one they tell
And you may have heard I went through hell
Well, now, I'm doing swell
Had to get the hell up from wherever I fell
Children that lost their only friends can relate
To have the people you never thought you would replace
To lose the ones who stopped the tears on your face
As if we only found ourselves inside this haze
Skin deep, our words still reach chambers of the heart
Live on, and be the light inside someone's dark
[Hook]
I don't wanna think without you
I don't wanna breathe around you
Because seeing is still believing
So what is a heart worth beating?
[Chorus]
Images that bring me back to myself
Without these, I would have been somebody else
You tell me about time, I don't remember your name
It's been awhile, so, was I the only one to blame?
