A Series of Unfortunate Events

[Singing] I don't mean to complain I'm not tryna throw blame But when I pray all I hear is crickets Got me feeling like Lemony Snicket I'm living in a series of unfortunate events I swear my life's a series of unfortunate events Unfortunate events.... Verse - Ciber [spoken] Alex, I know you're a God fearing man so I hope this ain't awkward for you... Uh Look... [Rapping] How many losses can I take before I really lose it? Messages to the almighty but all I get is a blue tick Such a predicament, my prayers stuck in the firmament All this losing starting to feel kinda permanent, You'd think me and loss would be much acquainted by now Seeing it's been a constant in my life somehow. Four years old I lost my old man before I could even write my name Before I could even memorize his face, That theme would continue again over the years. Lost my grandpa, lost my cousins, even some of my peers. I guess the heavens must like the sight of my tears. A series of unfortunate events, getting worse by the season. Got me crying till I'm heaving. They say be grateful you're breathing. love that you're living. But life's a mission and it's impossible—got me feeling like Ethan. Look for a reason—why, when I pray, the almighty doesn't seem to listen. Maybe school's in session and I keep missing the lesson. [Chorus] I'm living in a series of unfortunate events I swear my life's a series of unfortunate events Unfortunate events.... Unfortunate events (uh I'm living in..) A series of unfortunate events. Verse 2 - Rebel Mindset [Spoken] Yo Lu I know how exactly how you feel Not to be cheesy but hear me out [Rapping] I hear your pain in every bar, every breath between the lines That kinda hurt leaves scars that don’t heal with time And truth is, I ain’t got the answers you been seeking Sometimes I question God too when my soul feels weakened Cause lately I been fighting battles I could never explain Smiling in public while privately drowning in rain They say “God gives his toughest soldiers harder missions” But I got wounds on my spirit from surviving conditions And I know what it’s like praying straight into the ceiling Wondering if Heaven’s even hearing how you feeling But maybe being broken ain’t a sign that we abandoned Maybe every loss shaped the men we becoming See, I can’t promise sunshine, I still got storms inside Still got nights where fear and faith both collide But if you carrying pain, then my shoulders involved Cause maybe we don’t heal alone — maybe that’s the resolve And if the Almighty quiet, maybe silence got meaning Maybe He building warriors while we crying and bleeding A series of unfortunate events, yeah I know it too well But somehow we still standing — and that’s a story to tell. [Chorus]
