In my zone

I’m in a world where I feel alone

I stay high as hell

Cause it keep me in a zone

Lying across my bed

Trying to clear my head

from this damn recession

It’s so bad that I find myself

spiraling into a deep depression

I have so much on my plate

That I’m surprised to be in the right mind state

My people turned their back on me

That hurt me deeply

It felt like salt to a wound

I find myself in this world dancing to my own tune

trying to find the right beat

That’ll keep me on my feet

Feeling like Tom Hanks, a cast away

In the ocean

Swimming in the sea of my emotions

My soul is in so much pain

Felt like I been hit by a hurricane

Tossing to and fro

Figuring out which way to go

Everybody expect me to be a saint

***’em cause I ain’t

I’m tired of trying to please everybody

No longer will I compromise how I feel

I can’t do the fake

Cause I’m too real

It’s time for me to be emotionally free

People may say that I’m rotten to the core

But I be damn if I deal with drama anymore

I don't care what you think about my attitude

Keep your opinions and comments to yourself

If you don’t want a feud.
