Lyrics
man I'm just here
my head's on another tier
I live to help others from fear
I'm here to be reliable,
that ought a be viable,
I'm constantly liable
everyone can count on me
like a b c
like 1 2 3
yeah I'm the roots of the the tree
chop me off and the rest fall free
life ain't free
take it from me
it's better to fight than to flee
yeah this my new decree
I'm the roots of a tree
essential to life
hoping to strife
yet they keep stabbing into my back a knife,
I try to trust
but I just
keeping getting betrayed
my nerves starting to fray
I hope I can make it another day
better hope your not in my way
cause depending on my mood,
I might flay you like a fish
anyways, I still don't learn my lesson
still in depression (I think)
the don't make an impression
on me, yeah I'm the roots of the tree, cut me off and I'll regrow,
the rest, I don't know, don't go so low
yeah, I have an alibi, it's viable,
right now, I gotta be reliable like your car, it's gotten you far, I'm right on par, and life ain't retryable
I know and Don't care that I'm liable
for every issue don't need no tissue
you lying when you say "I can fix you"
you and I are clashin' yet this is my passion, don't care about no fashion, the haters tryna give me a lashin'
then I let my true colors show
they then flee and go
proving I can be more than the whole show
yeah I'm reliable, yeah I'm viable, yeah I'm a thing that lingers,
I might as well be fingers,
the way you can count on me like 1 2 3 like a b c
I dish help out for free
whether they're a she, he, or anything in-between
none of it matters to me, you don't got to pay the fee,
if you ask it of me I'll leave you be,
I may be a flea
but not one that flees
from people who need help,
as clear as a yelp,
yeah I'm like the roots of a tree, cut me off the rest fall free,
I'm the foundation of a society,
I save lives that I can't see, this ain't a plea
set me on fire
call me a liar
post all yo bs on top of a flyer,
say I'll never get higher
it's all fine I'll take my time,
climbing this ladder,
occasionally getting sadder
hand it over on a gold platter, I'll eat the emotions up without any chatter, I'm dropping beats so hard it's making the earth flatter
honestly, I'm flattered
since I survive
this busy hive
by having my mind
keep going and going and going
as fast as a Boeing,
constant self loathing
just enough to be concerning
I don't know why I'm saying all this
maybe trying to get something I missed
a hug from the right person some self love,
some inner peace,
maybe a white dove,
and man, I'll take my time, get arrested if silence was a crime
I ain't spending a dime,
a second of time,
on people who hate me
maybe
you could leave me be,
you better flee,
before I get up,
then I'm showing no mercy,
yeah, I'm the roots of the tree, cut me off the rest gon scream
I need light
maybe a sun beam
to make my good parts gleam,
I live in the dark,
try to get to know me is like exploring new lands like Lewis and Clark, you disembark
