Promises

I know I made promises and I broken them sometimes But I mean what I meant when I say what I said what I said I said it all I need to ask you one question Am I okay Cause I don't even remember what it feels like Cause it's been too long I got used to feeling like this I got used to feeling like this for so long Been on my own and now it feels so wrong But I guess I know I gotta be able to love myself Before I even think of loving someone else Look at my face yeah I been alone I been asleep all in this cave yeah Nothing else to do Nothing else to see Nothing else to be yeah Matter of fact in case that I'm gone in the morning Remember I told you I'm not your opponent When I'm gone they'll be devoted When I'm gone they'll be the biggest fans Everybody pocket watching till my pockets in they hands Uh Ima put a wrench a socket in they plans Said I wouldn't but here I stand Staring at the moon again I know I made promises and I broken them sometimes But I mean what I meant when I say what I said what I said I said it all I need to ask you one question Am I okay Tried to put seeds in place Took a leap of faith Grabbed that leaf of paper And freed my brain Jotted my thoughts down If you would've said I would be this great You would be insane To me I wasn't even tryna Reach my limit Or release a tape Stay in school You should keep it safe Stay on that path You should be complacent The reaper stay Just a block away Might as well call him now If you chasing the fame No promises No I can't make no promises No I can't make no promises No no I can't make no promises no more I can't make no promises no more I can't make no promises no more I can't make no promises no more I can't make no promises no more Ah I won't make no promises and that's a fact Broke a thousand promises to be exact But this my last I know I made promises and I broken them sometimes But I mean what I meant when I say what I said what I said I said it all I need to ask you one question Am I okay Way before Covid I was into masks I was tryna blend in Tryna get past Wasn't tryna get noticed Couldn't hold back Wanted to make people smile Tried to make em laugh I had brains But I acted like I didn't Was scared of peoples opinions Wasn't cool to be to smart Failed classes Never wore my glasses I showed up with the answers That nobody asked Mom she was worried That I wouldn't last Growing up in a hurry Going downhill fast That I'd end up in drugs Or in somebody's gang I was chasing the fame Didn't know who to blame But f*ck all the fame F*ck the money And f*ck the restraints I do this for the love of the game When I die they forget my face But they'll always remember the name And that's a promise MoonWatcher 3
