Worldly Weight
Andrew M. Pantel
You only saw me in circles, looping me outta my way
Only to drop, bag-in-tow, leaving me sick every day
Who do I trust in this cold world? They all look away
"Mother, I'm falling, I'm fading" But no one knows what to say
So what stops me from ending myself
When this world lives without me and I'm lacking its wealth
Because to them, they're thinking I have nothing to give
Treated me like a kid and for what? Cause it ain't a man that you'll get
Their perverted success is pressed against me, always, every day
When I've been searching for love but there's always things in the way
They never tell me to conquer my fears and capture my dreams
Only to handle up and just be the better man I can be
I'm always awake at night wondering what we could be
I'm not picking up trash, no, I'm causing a scene
Cause that's how they treat it when they talk to me like police
Now what else can I do when I only feel my body bleed?
Besides the guts that I'm spilling or any hard spit in my speech
They're always taking me sideways or lighting my ass when I speak
"How bout you reach out to someone" Just reach my hand down the sink
And hit the garbage disposal while I'm in search for a ring
To almost pull it out then say aloud "what the hell did I think?"
Bandage myself up and wish I never said shit cause it stinks
Tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
These expectations are gaining on me
And I'm falling apart right in front of you
