"do you see me [LISTEN]" lyrics
I hear a voice that says go to hell
And don't come back up
Do you see for myself
Or is it all a game
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Do you see me now
With my face in the ground always
Maybe I have to face this day
I guess I gotta be the man to grow up
It's a hard knock place
It's a hard knock place
Do you see me now
Do you see me now
Sugar
I'm in a room on a Saturday night
Will you hold me when nothing feels right
Feels right
Do you see me now screaming through the moonlight
Girl
How could I
Survive in this
In this new world
I don't think it's a man's world
Maybe it's a girl's world
Is it God's world?
So I'm screaming Jesus Jesus
Or twisted preachers
Or Ghandi lead us
I hold my breath until I figure
I think I might pass out
Guess this where I lash out
Forget how you feeling
Forget your emotions
Forget it at large
Just hide in ya room
And then you close the door
Make sure no one hears you
I hope you die slow
I hope that the maggots come out of your ears
And they eat at your heart so you don't have a soul
I don't give a F about what believe in
I think that you silly
And think that you slow
Pass me that scripture
Or pass me that sage
Or pass me that incense
Or pass me that rock
You looked at the moon
And let it determine the way how you feeling
Lil boy you got got
Pass me that cross
I crumble it down
You praying to wood
You praying to gold
You praying to silver
You praying to bronze
I just don't think that you will break the odds
I guess you have faith
But what does that stem from
Is it your science?
Is it your intuition or your values?
Little boy I will take someone you value
Then I will let you question all your values
You see, it's deeper than all of the masses
It's deeper than what you can see with them little prescriptions that's all in your glasses
It's deeper
It started the day that you came
I tried to arrange an umbilical cord that was wrapped around your neck
Your mamma was lying with you on her chest
They praying to God, and they hoped for the best
That plan never worked so I put you in fear
And I put you in tears for about like 6 years
Told you to stay quiet and keep up the game
Don't ever tell no one about what I say
You can't have no bros
You can't have no shorties
'Cause deep deep inside you wanna F em all
And as far as that girl that you calling ya wife
You dressed for the come up
I'm plotting ya fall
I'm surprised that you made it this far in this life
I thought you would quit 'cause there's more in this life
That I never knew that you could've seen
Now it's back to the board to find some new tortures
You might've win some
But I'ma send some
Thoughts in your head
I that will cost you a ransom
Damn you so handsome
Stay that lil boi that I molded for years or die
Oh
Facing my reality
Oh
Wash out all the mystery
And don't come back up
Do you see for myself
Or is it all a game
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
Do you see me now
With my face in the ground always
Maybe I have to face this day
I guess I gotta be the man to grow up
It's a hard knock place
It's a hard knock place
Do you see me now
Do you see me now
Sugar
I'm in a room on a Saturday night
Will you hold me when nothing feels right
Feels right
Do you see me now screaming through the moonlight
