Silver Lining

I’ve been going through it Said I’ve been going through it I’ve been going through it I don’t know what to do Life isn’t fair, it’s not just peaches and cream Having mental breakdowns, yeah causing a scene Living in a nightmare you just want sweet dreams I be quiet on the outside, inside I scream So I have a question, why am I getting fucked over Sometimes I just want to get away be a loner Don’t want new relationships, don’t want to get closer It’s nothing personal, I’m growing up, getting older This year ain’t been so great, heartache and pain Stayed up many nights late going insane I just wanna start fresh, maybe get on a train But out of all of this bullshit what have I gained Too many tears, too many years, I’ve been through it Tired of mistakes, I just want to undo them Parts of my life are screwed up, just unscrew em So I did some soul searching so I could improve it Woke up one day and said this is not enough My life was a mess, it was painful, it was rough I got thick skin for the people acting tough Proved my haters wrong, called them out on their bluff Find the silver lining in the bad situations Bring light to dark, just breathe, be patient Sometimes I get sad but don’t get me mistaken My tears show strength from the life I’m facing Find the silver lining in the bad situations Bring light to dark, just breathe, be patient Sometimes I get sad but don’t get me mistaken My tears show strength from the life I’m facing I don’t understand why is it always me Family drama, fake friends, all the same things I just want to escape, live my life, and be free I’m drowing in my problems my life is a sea Do I really got to go to college, get a degree Just to pursue my dreams? I’m sorry I disagree But on the bright side I know I’m a be successful I’m a black boy in America, I gotta be careful God gave me my gifts, feeling so special I don’t respect all my elders if they’re disrespectful Because I’m too respected I’m too monumental Don’t question me just, check the credentials Positivity and good vibes are essential Antisocial, people be so resentful Before you get upset look at the bigger picture When life gives you lemons, make a bigger pitcher Find the silver lining in the bad situations Bring light to dark, just breathe, be patient Sometimes I get sad but don’t get me mistaken My tears show strength from the life I’m facing Find the silver lining in the bad situations Bring light to dark, just breathe, be patient Sometimes I get sad but don’t get me mistaken My tears show strength from the life I’m facing I got used to cutting ties and saying goodbye Cut me deep in different ways like a good slice of pie I got tired of crying and asking why Yet I never got a answer all I heard was the lies But in the end it brought a lesson to my eyes That they were doing no good in my life If being real and loyal was a crime I’d be in a cell doing my time Sometimes it’s too much and I need a break I don’t want love nowadays it be so fake Don’t try to come back it’s too late I’ve outgrown you, now that’s your fate Find the silver lining in the bad situations Bring light to dark, just breathe, be patient Sometimes I get sad but don’t get me mistaken My tears show strength from the life I’m facing Find the silver lining in the bad situations Bring light to dark, just breathe, be patient Sometimes I get sad but don’t get me mistaken My tears show strength from the life I’m facing At one point I was depressed, down, and struggling So I picked myself up, it was difficult, puzzling I started being positive and talking to god And I’m proud of it, y’all be fronting, facade I’m done clapping back, y’all not worth the applause I’ll just shut down negativity just like a garage So when life gets tough, you gotta be strong The storm don’t last forever but yes it’s long Just hang in there, when you’re in crisis The silver lining is always there You just gotta find it
