Lost in Denial

(Hello, no one is available to take your call
 Please leave a message after the tone)
 (Hey man, uhh it's me, Gis just checking in hoping you're alright
 Umm you're probably busy at work or something
 But yeah man, I know you-you always at you know on the grind, working on you
 Umm... but you know, I worry about you sometimes, I don't want you to get too burnt out)
 The only thing sadder than death itself
 Is the fact that you can't take all the wealth
 And all the time spent puttin' in a hard work
 Don't mean shit once they put you in the ground earth (yea)
 I say that to say this cuz I already know
 But will I stop what I'm doing? I don't really know
 When my time comes, wonder where will I go
 Eternal paradise or be tortured down below
 Damn! Bad luck or just lack of faith
 God forgives but never overlooks anything
 I just hope that the good I do sometimes
 Will count for somethin' and if any in His eyes
 And if not, then I gotta try harder
 But flirting with sin, won't get me any farther
 Stuck in the gray, my soul on the line
 So even though I ain't, I still say I'm fine (Damn)
 (Hey baby. I just wanted to call and see how you are doing
 I know you've been going through a lot lately and you feel like the whole world is on your shoulders
 And I just wanted you to know that I'm here for you
 You're always tryin' to help others because you have such a big heart
 And it just breaks my heart to see you do so much and get so little in return
 But I want you to know that no matter what obstacles may come your way
 That you will always be able to overcome them
 Things always seem darkest before the light and it is in those darkest of times that we are pushed to our limits
 And it is in those times that you must never give up)
 I trade privacy for success
 Take that away, and you see there's nothing left
 My identity is on display
 You want a piece? All you gotta do is push "play" (Yea)
 Cuz why hide from the naked truth
 I'm no Catholic, but stay confessin' in the booth
 Microphone kissin', how I show my love
 And headphones hold me tight... like a hug
 See music be the one, never do me wrong
 And that's the only thing I'm sure of in this song
 It's just certain people that I just can't stand
 That'll do anything make you less of a man
 No, I see it too, but can't avoid
 So I deal with the stress, got me so annoyed
 Hoping that the grief won't last a while
 So if you ask how I'm doin', I'll look up and smile (Damn)
 (Hey Saint, what's going on? Like I haven't heard from you in weeks, I've been calling just tryin' to reach out
 Last time we spoke, you sounded so down. Like life is just holding you back
 Just know that the only way you can go from here is up, literally up
 All the greats started from somewhere small and they have it all
 I mean look at J, look at everyone. Just the other day, you got artists like
 I mean everyone that's making out here, they started from somewhere small
 Just know I'm here for you, come back, reach out, stay strong. Alright? We got this)
 So don't worry, I'm good, yes I'm okay
 If eyes be the window, then I'm rocking shades
 So you can't see the truth behind the pain
 Lost In Denial, forever I remain
 So don't worry, I'm good, yes I'm okay
 If eyes be the window, then I'm rocking shades
 So you can't see the truth behind the pain
 Lost In Denial, forever I remain
 I get lost, I get lost, I get lost. Lost In Denial
 I get lost, I get lost, I get lost. Lost In Denial
 I get lost, I get lost, I get lost. Lost In Denial
 I get lost, I get lost, I get lost. Lost In Denial
 (Lost... I get so lost sometimes
 Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart
 Lost... I get so lost sometimes
 Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart)
