lyrics

Verse One

It's funny how I was born with no obligation to any human being,
but now it seems like I am owing all this money now,
it's been raining for seven days,
I got my winter coat, my umbrella is up,
I step outside and yo' it's sunny now,
I used to think police officers had to serve us and protect us
but nowadays I'm more scared that they may gun me down,
and on the street these crazy drivers wanna run me down,
I got a show tomorrow, but my nose is runny now,
sometimes I'm talking on the phone and I am deep in conversation,
but can tell the other person isn't listening,
I hate when I go on vacation and get to my hotel my room
and it is hot, but I can't work the air conditioning,
sometimes I'm laying in my bed and I am trying to fall asleep,
but I can never seem to get the right positioning,
they say I'm dope at making beats, I wanna remix every track,
but nowadays these record labels ain't commissioning,
and I could meet a pretty woman in a club and get to talkin’,
then realize the two of us ain't got no chemistry,
we living in a world where you can have so much that's working for you,
but you look at someone else with all this jealousy,
I wanna trust these politicians when they speak;
but everybody knows that being untruthful's a common tendency,
we gotta learn to live together, we the people of this planet,
we are family, to hell with this supremacy.



Chorus

Oh no! The world is kinda’ cold,
but just hold on to everything you know when things go wrong,
and maybe one day you can say so long
to all the days when life would play no song,
you gotta try your best and just hold on,
it's feeling like a test when things go wrong,
you gotta take a breath, don't stress so long
take cover from the world when you go home.




Verse Two

Ay' yo' it's tiring when you are looking for a job
and there are thousands advertised,
but when it comes to you it's like nobody's hiring,
when everything is going good and I am feeling positive,
but then somebody comes to mess with my environment,
when I am working on a paper, my computer catch a virus
and I didn't think to backup my assignment,
it's like the universe is no longer aligning,
and everybody knows the things you think are private,
I check my social media; I see a picture of my friends,
they at a party, yo' but how could they forget me?
So many people will insist upon me showing them consideration
when it's plain to see they don't respect me,
and yo' I'm trying to figure out the reason
I worry about so many things, which I know really don't affect me,
and I'm still going in my phone and picking out numbers to call
of all the people who so easily neglect me,
I wanna’ tell you what I really think about you
but inside I'm just afraid that I am gonna’ be rejected,
I have a different point of view and there's nothing written in stone
that I should have to see the world from your perspective,
now I am waiting twenty minutes on the phone
and then somebody it pick up, but suddenly I'm disconnected,
sometimes I have to put my hand up in the air
and draw a line around myself, so I can feel like I'm protected.


Chorus
