IntroHurt
[Intro: Tonye Ayeba]
Woah, oh, ohh, oh
All I can say, is that my pain is deep
I cry, I pray, I dream off endlessly
I keep it in, I don't say a word
For my will to live is stronger than my hurt
Ah, ah, ooh-ooh

[Verse: Cam the Artisan]
See, I feel a lot of pain on the inside
Lots of hate and self-doubt
I can't sleep I'm stressed out, I can't find a way out
And there's no way that I'm proud
Of what I've done, of where I've been
Of where I stand, my so-called friends are Michelin
Tired of the way I've been feeling, I'm burnt out
Gone flat, now I need a spare now
I've gotten too close to closure
But I came up too short
And 'cause I'm a man don't mean I'm not emotional
And these days I haven't really been approachable
Cause I'm a popular loner, uh
Niggas know me but they don't really know the inside me
I'm ten times deep in pain, I need insight, please
I know you see the cry for help in the e-y-e's
I'm not meant to feel it
Not complaining then again I'm sitting
Tryna figure out what's meant for niggas
Like me, I don't talk about my problems much
Like A.C. in the hood, I don't vent to niggas, I—
Thank y'all for the hard times, then again I thank God for the hard times
Filling the void: no love, more hate, no peace, more pain
Falling apart, man I'm not fine
[Refrain: Tonye Ayeba]
And that's why I stay alone (Stay alone)
I'm tryna right my wrongs
And that's why I stay at home (Oh)
Had to really find myself
Had to really find myself
Had to really find myself
I know, I know, I know
Tryna find out what's real (Real)
Show me what's real (Real)
Lately I've been at war
War
Ohh, ohh, ohh

[Interlude: Tonye Ayeba, Cam the Artisan]
Ah, ah, ooh
Ah, ah
Uh

[Verse 2: Cam the Artisan]
I'm not human without flaws
I'm not human without God
And I'm not human without trying to find peace in myself
And these emotions tryna trap me in bondage
And I feel disregarded
And I'm tired of feeling irrelevant
By my parents, my family, friends and them
Pulling out my hair, I don't know where to begin
Not conditioned for all this pain
I'm not leaving, it's setting in like
Young man just lost in his thoughts
I'm P.O. that's why I'm stuck in this box
This black male is addressing his problems
I'll return and ship out, deliver that's at whatever cost
I'm not fond of the people who fraud and send shots 'cause they won't hit the target
Outgoing but awkward, send love but heartless
Feeling like the Tin Man, blaming myself for whatever's the problem
[Refrain: Tonye Ayeba]
And that's why I stay alone (Stay alone)
I'm tryna right my wrongs
And that's why I stay at home (Oh)
Had to really find myself
Had to really find myself
Had to really find myself
I know, I know, I know
Tryna find out what's real (Real)
Show me what's real (Real)
Lately I've been at war
War
Ohh, ohh, ohh
