Anemic - Cold Nights lyrics

[Verse 1] I was born in a world full of so many opportunities and all people focus on is the fights and the hate Just wait and I'll let you know that life is great if you just let purity hit your mind-state Fate always takes a turn for the best and it always makes sure that life is worth living It rebuilds the good feelings and refuels the heartbeat in our chest only if you take a break and forget about the stress I was born into a world where we can all bond yet all we do is focus on is the right from the wrong We stress on the bad and focus on the pain when we should reflect on the past and try to make a change We control this world and we guide where the generation takes us maybe if we worked together and didn't treat life like a race Then we can all make it to the same place and live the perfect lives that only some of us can embrace We can display how a person should act and how humans can get along, let's take the first step For some of us, it will be the worst step, the hardest to endure but trust me, in the end you'll help the world become pure If you ever watch the news, you only see the bad like the shootings in Baltimore or the d**h of a little child It burns to see people take advantage of the chances we have since people have it tough like no food or living in the wild [Verse 2] It's ignorance to think that life is currently bliss, but not if we don't all put our hands together to help fix This world and make it what it should be -- a place where you aren't scared to be, a place where we can all get that special kiss From that person who makes our lives special This should be a place we're honest at the right times Maybe if everyone had somebody to love or a hobby like writing rhymes, we'd have no crime I once thought I had the chance but then I screwed it up I was just thinking for myself and nobody else I was being selfish, destroyed a friendship to pieces and it took me so long before I could even tell My mind was trapped in the well as I slammed my door into my room where I was born and raised I used to like to think it was Hell but it was still shelter that's all that mattered when I struggled to excel As I shut the door, I was alone with my thoughts and sometimes that itself is the scariest thing to think about I realized my inhibitions took advantage of me it almost became a habit because I was desperate for a way to cope with the anger Now we've become strangers right when I'm leaving home and I've finally reached a special joint in my life Where I'll be all by myself, in a place where I'll have a chance to change people's lives, I've reached a point where I can strive I'm still grateful for my life and all the chances God gave me and all I can do is thank him But I'm falling again just tryna help people out so I'm praying and hoping that you'll save me In the end, I still know that it's worth it the sacrifice to be a little helpful and selfless sometimes Know that right now, we are in for a ride so hold tight, just know we're in for a couple cold nights [Verse 3] I made a mistake with the things I've said you're still a part of my life, you're my past, present, and future, and I let you leave it We were such close friends but then you took me for a person who would say mean things about another person who treated me like my life was a misdemeanor I'm Anemic, because of this path, I rose, it's rap I chose it helps me cope and now I'm tying up this beef and my lyrics are rope All I have is hope, accept my apology, but just keep in mind you still doubted me and attempted to drown me with envy as if I'd choke I think it's time to let this rest in peace and put it to its grave to save what was already burnt into the pavement Have you ever gone back to look at day one? It's like our whole journey was a maze and somewhere we took the wrong way Something I did or said made you take me for something that I wasn't but in the end a break from taking was what we needed to sway Everything around so we can hope to be friends again I've been filled with regret because I wasn't grateful I can't say it was hateful because there are people who have cut and some who aren't loved, it's a small world, right? But I guess at the end of the day, we all just absorb the things we said and heard and some of it hurts on these cold nights You might have never thought a thing of it but it's been on my mind the past few months since I lost a friend It's painful in the sense of a third world problem but I want everyone to get along, including us, I want it all to end I want a world of peace since it's crumbling to pieces just accept the fact that it's possible, we can set aside our differences At least we can make a world will people won't take their own lives, happiness will be how everyone makes ends meet They put aside their own bad feats and start showing a little bit of self esteem We all deserve happiness, friends, and most of all hope in our lives, I'll make sure they never leave
