Silence me lord My life keeps on trying me hard and I’m running out of logical things to say I’m about to start swinging Taking aim at all in arms reach Because it seems, that they are all trying to harm me I’m tired of running, tired of turning cheeks and being nice Holding my tongue and always having to give good advice I’m running on empty My supply has been diminished and nobody can help me, they say they have nothing to give me And when they do offer It seems in vain so it’s not the same I’m wrecking my brain thinking about dying this is not a game I have trouble sleeping Reality fades when I fall asleep I can’t see their face’s, I can only hear them calling me I try not to listen I close my eyes and ears as tight as hell I can still hear them no matter how I scream or how I yell The pain’s over bearing But I wear my face like nothing’s wrong Smile and act friendly, give the impression nothing’s going on I’m tired of lying I want to tell it all from center stage Unmask my anger; show the world all of my hate and rage Hate is a strong word but it flows through me in every vein And I can’t release it So my life’s filled with forever pain I feel strange at times Cause most people take what I say as lies They’d realize I mean it if they would look deeply within my eyes There are a few people In my life that’s on their last leg I wish I could trip them, assist them on the way to being dead Especially 2 or 3 I wish them people would die today Damn how their families feel and what their people have got to say There are a few things that’s been on my mind that I have got to say Like why do ya’ll play with me and treat me like a childish game You’ve got me confused With somebody else you must’ve met Ain’t no way in hell I will ever again go for that My last time Falling behind was in 11th grade And since that day You’ll have to kill me before I’m afraid No I’m not playing You can feel the truth jump off the page I turn to the Bible As if it would help me turn off my rage It didn’t help me It only worsened now I’m fighting mad I’m trying to reverse it and figure out some way to give it back I’m dying inside Not rapidly but at a steady pace And I cannot stop it I don’t know what to do to set it strait So I don’t even try I could die tonight that’s fine with me The only reason I’m still breathing now is for my family
