Lyrics

I been feeling so low As I'm healing from this sensation

Where nothing feels broken But all my pieces are roaming All across the floor

There's no emotion to my soul I've been broken for so long

I'm so used to coming home Feeling so drained from all these thoughts That be roaming through my brain Where nothing feels wrong But everything feels like it's tearing apart

I been through a lot I look fine but I'm not I hate lying to folks but I been so stressed This PTSD be having me so drained Sometimes I just wish I didn't have to go through everything that I went through I know it made me into the person that I am Now so depressed and I can't seem to make these folks understand So when you look at my scars don't underestimate my strength yeah

We all got battles that we fight We all got battles that we fight We all got battles that we fight

So I'll be on my own I don't need nobody to be for me I'm strong And I've always been

They tell me a young girl like you deserve better Cause a lot of these people know what I've been through And my life been so dark so dark Ever since my best friend left my side I need an explanation on why he took him from me so young So young So young So young

All I heard was the fire drill And they told me run to class I was so worried about my sister I told the man above Take me and leave her alive I heard the gunshots I heard everything I couldn't even express shit I felt so numb All those sirens left me scarred Blue and red lights All around they expected us to feel fine But I just felt dead inside Everytime I look back At that one text message from my mom She said you're going to be okay Don't fear none I'm right here I couldn't respond with nothing but I love you mom She's my role model She made me into the person that I am And I respect her and everything that she's done for me Love is unexpected You take love for granted You don't know you love something Until that one thing is close to becoming extinct

Yuvi you're here And I'm so proud of you For pulling through

Yuvi you're here And I'm so proud of you For pulling through

Embrace those scars Cause you're strong

I been feeling so low As I'm healing from this sensation

Where nothing feels broken But all my pieces are roaming All across the floor

There's no emotion to my soul I've been broken for so long yeah

I been broken for so long I was blind To my need for aspiration Every time You ripped apart our conversation Push me further Something in my soul I couldn't find Some shit just takes a little more time Some shit just takes a little more time Some shit just takes a little more time

Don't take it from me I've had my share of heartbreak Burned bridges to the furthest degree I'm not exempt from the blame of the gavel strike But I swear that I'm taking hours in the chapel So my mind can be free I'm settled in as the chief I look around at empty smiles Counting days until they find Something close to a meaning For life's trauma But they left with crying mamas When they check their receipts RIP Forever 17
