[Verse1] Sometimes I can't sleep at night Sometimes I just lie awake and wonder if I’m breathing right I don’t ever see the light All I see is darkness suffocating All the stars and all the planets When I see the sky I been tryna clear my mind I been popping pills and mixing potions Just to slow down all these thoughts So I can buy some time I think I’m running out of time Searching for a reason to keep going But it’s really getting hard for me to justify It done been a long hard road And I took so many losses I just can’t even get get my hopes up ‘Fore they end up in a coffin I had dreams when I was younger Had to hang them in the closet Cuz my life just got too real And now they hanging there forgotten Mind set switch had to focus on survival There were days that I was hungry All my worries were so primal My accounts were over drafted No relief coming in time But I got a 16 hour shift To try to occupy my mind [Chorus] This the diaries of a real one Can you feel me I’mma keep on going It don’t matter if it kills me It’s do or die I’m too alive I got my my pride I got some time Just watch my grind Just watch me shine [Verse 2] Had to learn some lessons Cuz I’m lonely and it’s cold now If it’s good it don’t come fast Life telling me to slow down I been focused on myself Trying to make myself whole now Piece it all together like a puzzle I had to make a solid foundation out of rubble Almost broke my back You can’t tell me I ain’t struggle I came a long way Let’s be honest with this shit But for me it’s not enough My ambition is legit I’m goin all in Tell the the dealer make it double Then do that shit again Taking chances is a must do [Chorus] This the diaries of a real one Can you feel me I’mma keep on going It don’t matter if it kills me It’s do or die I’m too alive I got my my pride I got some time Just watch my grind Just watch my shine
