Sometimes I wish I did not feel this way, but it's coded in my DNA
Right now I'm feeling some type of way
Sleeping and dreaming is how I spent the most of my day
And now I'm awake with a few thing to say
I'm going to try to do this without sounding like a cliche
But I'm stuck, nothing is black and white.. It's all gray
And I want to run, just run away
But it won't change a thing so here I stay
Sitting on 103rd where when I was a kid I used to play
Back then when everything was okay
And I sit here with my head bowed and I pray
I pray for a love that won't stray
I pray for a love that has no decay
I pray for love that God molded like working with clay
I pray for a love that's welcome forms of public display
I pray for a love that understands that if I lead it's ok to obey
Im the type that put his feeling to words and that does not make me gay
Just what I'm feeling right now is heavy, I can tell you just what it weigh
Using my words is my strength, its what I'm trying to portray
It's in my words I'm trying to convey
This feeling of deep dismay
This feeling is only something, I don't feel it every day
But when I do it's no child's play
This is deep and not something I would just give away
But it's too much for me, like eating at a buffet
I wish this pain was not the price I have to pay
So I'll take a couple shots of this Bombay
And hopefully it will get me through halfway
But I gotta keep moving with no delay
Sure hope I don't feel this way tomorrow like I do today
Maybe I'll take this heart of mine and toss it into the Chesapeake Bay
It's has caused me so many problem where if fallen prey
Cause its fragile and must be made of paper-mâché
You can see all the broken pieces if you just look at my X-ray
But I know I my alone but I'm not taking a survey
I know these emotional periods are becoming passé
Guess I cut this one short don't want to sign naïveté
So I'm finish is bottle of Cabernet
And hit the hay
Feel the beat of my heart as I lay
And feel the rhythm and begin to sway
But Ill keep drinking until I become numb and drift away.
