Collateral Damage
Lyrics
I've been trying to run from my problems
To keep another one from adding on
I feel so numb I'm so far gone that the collateral damage is done
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
Exhale Exhale
I need to take a deep breath and exhale
Coz See I feel I'm destined to fail
I try to get back on track then derail
Then I get back on route to prevail
You Thought you knew all there was to know
And you thought you'd landed the final blow
I was taught to be a man and a rightful bloke
So of course I'll withstand it revive and grow
See I try and I hope, to fucking stay with it
Try believe in myself, But instead I'm a cynic
Can't get optimistic, My head isn't in it
I Stopped pressing my limits and rested a minute
Neglected my talent, And I let It Diminish
But back with the bars ascending with lyrics
I'm not acting all hard reflecting an image
Coz that's what I can't, pretending what isn't
See respect it is earned and no it's no given
I've been trying to run from my problems
To keep another one from adding on
I feel so numb I'm so far gone that the collateral damage is done
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
Exhale Exhale
See I just need to relax and exhale
As I run from my past to prevail
to get away from my problems
And stop another adding on
I feel so numb and I'm that far gone
That the collateral damage is already done
See Trying to battle and manage it ain't fun
As I wrangle The damage that can't be undone
But I See what I was and how far I've come
And I've come to far to be fucking it up
But it is what it is so I live with the stress
Coz I did what I did and just need to accept
Plus live with this shit and keep up in this head
Trying my best in this life that's a mess
And I'm fucked in the mind but that's the price I paid
See I Knew right from wrong yet still decided to take
The wrong instead right with the choices that I made
I've been trying to run from my problems
To keep another one from adding on
I feel so numb I'm so far gone that the collateral damage is done
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
Exhale Exhale
Yer, I spit what I write with emotion
Like I'm living this life and I'm broken
So if you listen to the rhymes that I've spoken
It's probably clear that life that I've chosen
Has got me feeling like this and I'm hoping
I can get on with this life and keep growing
But I spark a cigarette that I'm now smoking
Wishing to forget this shit yet I'm knowing
It's here with me till my death like a token
And Either I'm up or down like a wave in the ocean
No time to fuck around I'm making it known yer
That the system is fucked and this life it is no fair
See drugs fucked my life and you don't wanna go there
Coz see it be like breathing but when there's no air
I've been trying to run from my problems
To keep another one from adding on
I feel so numb I'm so far gone that the collateral damage is done
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
I just need to exhale I just need to exhale
Exhale Exhale
