about

So its definitely been a long time guys, but I finally finished a song I'm definitely proud of. This is "Who I Am" a bit of a realization after a long time that you can't get anywhere doing nothing, indecision is definitely a decision as my dad said and that really stuck to me, so I decided to do something about it, and well this happened, if you guys like it subscribe, if you don't let me know why! Thank you so much!

lyrics

HOOK
You find yourself alone
Inside these hollow tones
But why can't I find who I am?

VERSE 1
Look, your on the outside looking in
Oblivious to all the tragedy thats happening
I found this side of me I didn't know and I'm tapping in
And now these people wanna use me like an acronym
But they should factor in

The situations I was placed in as a underling
The side of me that hides behind the failures wondering
What am I to do because the sky I love is thundering
Its raining cats and dogs and I just stand here suffering?

No, I'll find the pieces and complete and just wonder why?
I lost my hope so long ago and now the limits the sky
Because I found my inspiration hidden deep inside
I had to realize what I wasn't and just fix it, try

The worlds opened up to me
I found the reasons to continue now my thoughts are free
No key can lock these broken doors as far as I can see
But I've figured out the way to get there and what I want to be

CHORUS
You find yourself alone
Inside these hollow tones
But why can't I find who I am? (Oh find out who I am)
I know I never really gave it my all
My way of thinking really dropped the ball
But now its time again to fix these broken walls

VERSE 2
I know
Your lost, alone, and feeling hatred in your bones
You wanna run but you can never find the way to go
Its like you lost a part of you that had the only hope
Its like you found a noose to hang but its not made of rope

Its made of empty thoughts, broken dreams and now it rots
You built this trendy house, spoken words but you forgot
Its not about the profit I'm cool with empty pockets
But why can't you get by with 9 to 5s or in the office

See your all addicted to the same routine
Of sitting in your chair or staring at an empty screen
I know cause that was me, so broke and no more dreams
To push me further in my work to finally fight the stream

There's nowhere to fight the demons so lose yourself in feelings
I lost myself so long ago but now I finally feel it
Just building up inside, bubbling over in my mind
About to overload on crap I know I always pushed aside

VERSE 3
See you all thought I was just a joke
But now you see that I have passion a knack for those
Lyrics that I write as far as I know I'm dope
I'm not some arrogant rapper that just drinks and smokes

I put my heart into my music and what I wrote
For what it is I'm just a kid who just wants to know
What I have to do to get where I want to go
Cause that's just who I am and that was my story, told
