I never needed,
I never needed you
Oh, let alone anyone
We can leave this thing gone
I never needed,
I never needed you
Oh, let alone anyone
We can leave this thing gone
Grew up in a city known for cheaper alcohol
Where the dreamers go to wipe the mind of every single thought
Where the clowns are green enough to block out every star
Until the thought of ever reaching them is lost,
no
The only way to see them was to run far away
Only way to touch them was to work every day
But the,
the thought of failure plagues my heart and my head
And I can't get this weight up off my chest,
no,
no
Sticks and stones can't break my bones
No words won't bring me down
Umber told me stand up tall,
don't let them take your crown
Even when you touch the sky,
they'll say you're underground
Sticks and stones can't break my bones No words won't bring me down
They ain't break my bones,
but we can do damage with a stick
No stone in this whip full of chrome,
I'm a *,
I know
In this mad city,
you gotta be a psycho just to call it my home
Why you think we fly, mo?
If you don't see the tears,
that just mean he cry more
And here you stay for life,
who you sacrifice your mind for?
The military man said he don't wanna die,
yet he did it for survival
Sticks and stones can't break my bones No words won't bring me down
Umber told me stand up tall,
don't let them take your crown
Even when you touch the sky,
they'll say you're underground
Sticks and stones can't break my bones No words won't bring me down
My only thoughts walking through the piss-stained staircases was do
it on your own Less people to catch a case with The ones that played
the bravest needed a masterfield like Jason Dees Days I'm less
involved but being adjacent to the stainless I've been around the world
And I,
I,
I still can't find no peace in my,
my mind
Even with the knife in my back,
I left behind I was jogging off the supercell but can't rewind
Time don't pull up,
bad manna go forward with the
Sticks and stones,
these days I'm done talking to them
Talker,
I can show them how to walk and hock,
they follow movement
Made it look too easy,
now they thinking that there's nothing to it
Sticks and stones can't break my bones No words won't bring me down
Umber told me stand up tall,
don't let them take your crown Even when you touch the sky,
they'll say you're underground
Sticks and stones can't break my bones No words won't bring me down
I wanna use the gifts I'm given I'm spending
days and nights and weeks up in the kitchen
Not just trying to make a living,
I've been trying to make a difference
I'll make a change and some change on the
side So my family can never want for nothing
I've been suffering,
I've been thriving and I've been in between
I've been on the road to riches since I was like 17
Pocket full of dreams of stadiums singing back at me
In reality,
it's just faces passing on this street
I'm trying desperately to make them stop and notice me
Maybe that will stop these doubts from creeping in and choking me
Hopefully,
look,
the biggest battle is the one against myself
The end of me,
of my potential and my mental health
But I'll never let that voice under my skin
I'll never let them in,
I'll never let them in,
I'll never let them win
So I'll remember from whence I came I
used to find a comfort in these whispers
But I'm glad that I can finally say
I never needed,
I never needed you Oh,
let alone anyone
We can leave this, then and gone
I never needed,
I never needed you
Oh, let alone anyone
We can leave this, then and gone
