"barefoot" lyrics
Why you mad at me?
I've been fallin' backwards, runnin' barefoot through the leaves
Ayy
La-da-da-da
La-da-da-da
Hey you
Why you mad at me?
I've been fallin' backwards, runnin' barefoot through the leaves
I could bite my tongue until I really gotta leave
If the issue isn't settled, why you settlin' for me?
Hey you
Whatchu wanna be?
I remember back when I was sleeping with no sheets
Back when we were struggling off 89 a week
When the habits I possessed was partially possessing me
When the root of all my problems disappeared inside the green
And I was acting like I gave a fuck but no one fucked with me
When the buses to the 6 were all I had just to be free
I got a passport for that bitch but now I travel overseas
Yeah it's been a couple years but honestly it's all I see
When I close my eyes and reminisce this shit is just a dream
Guess I really overcame a lot and now I've come to see
All the work I've put into it paying off by 23
Thought I'd never live to tell but now I'm tellin how it be
When you overcome the obstacles and turn into a G
You could A. run for cover, are you ready for the heat?
Self destruct until I feel like anyone but me
You could be anything that you desire whatchu seek?
I've been plotting on this shit for years since I was seventeen
Never felt like I could do it, the depression come in sweeps
I put my headphones on and spit some shit until I fall asleep
Back in 2017, I plotted out my death
Tied a noose inside my closet, drew a target on my chest
If you think this shits a gimmick, you can put it to the test
Check my browser history for all the answers, be my guest
Googled "how to kill myself" but every option involved pain
Every forum full of isolated kids that feel the same
Saying they would end their lives in hopes of ridding all the shame
It's much easier to talk about when no one knows your name
It's hilarious how motherfuckers profit off an act
You ain't ever put the blade against your skin and that's a fact
You're bewildered by the concept of a struggle so you cap
Yeah my eyes are fixed upon you and I'm ready to attack
Yeah, guess this is a wrap
Fuck you and your homies, all the shit you do is whack
This ain't no specific diss, it's simply a smack
In the face of all these influencers actin' like they sad
La-da-da-da
La-da-da-da
La-da-da-da
La-da-da-da
La-da-da-da
La-da-da-da
I've been fallin' backwards, runnin' barefoot through the leaves
