I Hope You Know I Mean It

Yeah
 
 You know, I just say wanna something real fast before I start this
 There's a lot of things in this world that I care way too much about (on my back)
 And music's definitely one of them
 But music'sthe only one that's actually worth my time
 (I've got the whole world)
 And I'm about to tell you why (on my back, I do)
 Yeah, 'cause I'm 5'9, 165
 Established 1995
 Living like I'm not getting out alive
 And I'ma take a second just to tell you why
 I had thoughts since 6th grade
 That this world was not made for the sake
 Of the people like me
 Who can't see past their mistakes, and misdeeds
 And I bleed the same blood you bleed
 So why are you tryna cut me?
 Why's there always something you want from me?
 Why can't you be happy for me?
 That I'm not that kid on the phone
 Screaming, "Fuck this world I'm leaving?"
 Like when I was 16 and it still feels like I'm dreaming
 When I call your phone and realize I forgot to breathe in
 Forgot the grave that he's in
 I hope you know I mean it
 When I say I'm only here today
 'Cause this music keeps me breathing
 It's my only healing
 I'm not alone if you can feel it
 I'm not alone, if you know the bliss
 When I heard that girl don't slit her wrists no more
 From that time I reminisced at my show
 Told her there's reasons to stay, don't go
 Don't push your family away, I know
 They don't understand all the pain you hold
 I'm just as sad, know you're not alone
 Don't let your story go untold
 I know you're here in spirit, put on deja entendu
 The only time I'm sad now is when I think of you
 I hope one day these kids get some of my lyrics tattooed
 If I only help one of them, then I did it for all you
 I don't know how she's doing, no we haven't stayed in touch
 But I helped her put the knife down and that means so fucking much
 I hope one day these kids get some of my lyrics tattooed
 But if I only helped one of 'em then I did it, I did it for you
 For you, for you
