Silas Price - Battlescars Lyrics

Even as a young kid, I always wanted to make it out
Made myself a promise then to my younger self, can't let me down
Can't let me down
Can't let me down
Some days, I can't lie
Feel like I wasn't good enough
Some say, men don't cry
Feel like I'm giving up
God got me now
God got me now

Feel like Mike Jones when I'm home
And I be thinking bout the things back then
Just a young little black kid
I was too shy, didn't really have friends
Parents really ain't have the money so I couldn't keep up with the fashion
Bills limit how the cash spent
Made fun of because of my accent
Fear of average
But I ain't know division
Subtract the ones who ain't know the vision
Came up off of burnt bologna,
Noodles, canned goods and frozen dinners
Some nights, slowly reminiscing
Of me and her when I'm scrolling pictures
Talking deep and we rolling swishers
Looking back cause I know we finished
She double crossed me like hashtags
Now all I can do is just flashback
To the times where she throwing that ass back
It's funny who ended with the last laugh
Now I make sure that the money sign come before anybody like it was Cashapp
That drama, I thought we moved past that
Now Shots flying like Baghdad
Men Don't Cry
Check to check just getting by
Some days we would have sleep for dinner
Cause it's never been easy to swallow pride
Heart hurting but you gotta hide
Alcohol help re-energize
Some folks crossed to the other side
Way too much up on my mind

Even as a young kid, I always wanted to make it out
Made myself a promise then to my younger self, can't let me down
Can't let me down
Can't let me down
Some days, I can't lie
Feel like I wasn't good enough
Some say, men don't cry
Feel like I'm giving up
God got me now
God got me now

Nowadays folks savage
When it comes to love, they give half in
Competition with one another tryna see who feelings be lacking
Bad bitch with the back bent
Procrastination and Distractions
Be my downfall, I must admit
I was never one to catch trends
He swear he hard with this trapping shit
Me? I just wanna be happy with
A Young Queen, I can be laughing with
Posts Pictures of us stacking it
With classic hits
No pacifist
Keep them lines & hooks
Like I had to fish
Authentic and Passionate
They wanna see what the caption say
Good vibes create moments now
Only care about making my mama proud
Faith is knowing that it's gonna happen way before ever really even knowing how
POP, I'mma hold it down
The K.I.D. You know the sound
Laying back while we rolling loud
Feelings I used to be closing out
Time to see what our Motives Bout
See the cameras, time to focus now
Election time, will he get voted out?
Don't gas him up, he a motor mouth
Ain't talk to folks in so long
Numb the pain now, I'm so gone
People change
Ya Hide Pain
Breakdowns you Postpone

Even as a young kid, I always wanted to make it out
Made myself a promise then to my younger self, can't let me down
Can't let me down
Can't let me down
Some days, I can't lie
Feel like I wasn't good enough
Some say, men don't cry
Feel like I'm giving up
God got me now
God got me now
