MikelWJ - Buried Alive lyrics

[Verse One: MikelWJ] I found my purpose for real, to tell the world how I feel To differentiate emotions that I tried to conceal Some call me real, and some fake, but no one knows whats at stake And I feel stuffed at the moment so don't put more on my plate I found myself on my aunts couch at 4AM on christmas Asking when this loneliness had been put on my wish list In fact, that's when Outcast was penned to the page To deconstruct emotions and to save me from rage Now if you take a second to look at it all from my perspective You'll see I'm dealing with a lot more than I first expected You'll see I lost most of the people that I first protected And lost a lot of the faith in the ones I first respected Don't say that I'm changing, since I'm aware it's the truth I've been looking for change, and lately it's all that I do So if you live in the shadows, come join the youth in the limelight And realize you'll be happier when looking in hindsight [Chorus: MikelWJ] I'll be buried alive I'll be buried inside this place Today I'll be buried alive I am a too young to die Today, in this place [Verse Two: MikelWJ] These words don't mean sh** until you give them a meaning Since I just rap what I'm writing and I just write what I'm seeing So if my world seems dark, you'll see darkness repeating And when I start breathing easy you'll see darkness retreating But please don't paint me as an angel, or with eloquent lights Please don't always think I'm down because the music I write I love the fans that I get, and I do my best to be nice But there's a difference from my music and my personal life There are things about my life some people say isn't right And if I wrote all my thoughts, there'd be some sh** you don't like But now i'm just being honest, just like I promised you all So here's a simple little question, why'd you all let me fall? I put in weeks worth of work just making sure it was perfect But when the record released, it seems my efforts were worthless Now I'm feeling worthless, f** this feeling the earth gives Everything went unnoticed so now I'm rolling with new kids [Chorus] [Bridge: MikelWJ] I am not the type to follow footsteps, that I know won't lead the way I am not the type to meet my heroes, God I know I'd rue the day [Chorus]
