Nasic, Rashid Isaiah - Jaded Lyrics

Yo, let me tell you a story about a kid who never grew up
Five foot ten, head down as if he threw up
Wanted to be the man, all he sought was respect
But deep inside he wanted love, so he hoped to protect
His inner heart from enemies who would tear it apart
But now he sees that his friends were enemies from the start (Damn!)
Now he walks with a mask to cover what lies behind it (Okay)
The chip on his shoulder, the anger that's so defiant (Word)
He changes his heart hoping that others would change
Took his heart off his sleeve, now people look at him strange
And he expressed how he feel, and people say that he's tripping
That he's the one who needs help, and that's a dumb way of living
But deep inside he knows the world (World), is not what it seems
That every person hides agendas and the truth is in schemes
But it's funny how his heart feels fake and destroyed
Now it look like he's becoming what he's meant to avoid
He's feeling jaded
(I'm feeling jaded)
(I'm feeling jaded)
Yo, yeah, uhn
It's Nasic
Look, I'm feeling jaded
These memories I left inside the basement had me feeling like a nigga too complacent
Back when I couldn't face it
I'm feeling like I'm Neo in the Matrix, man these pills I'm taking got me seeing faces
It's feeling like me and my shorty going different places
And yeah I wear my heart on my sleeve, now watch me break it
I know some things ain't really what they seem, but this life is what you make it
And best believe when I get my chance I take it (Hold up)
Let me take this shit way back to the basics
New Balance all on my feet, look how I lace it
Young nigga with no kind of dreams or aspirations
Trying to make some money rapping in my brother's basement
I swear I wouldn't change it
Some things just don't make sense until you make it
Don't know where you gone end up, gotta pace it
It's funny how they fake it
I'm giving you the real with no replacements, I'd be lying if I said I wasn't anxious
I guess I'm feeling jaded
(I'm feeling jaded)
(Uhn, I'm feeling jaded)
(Yeah)
