mack

Somedays I sit staring out the window, watchin' this world pass me by
Sometimes I think there's nothin' to live for. I almost break down and cry.
Sometimes I think I'm crazy. I'm crazy, oh so crazy. Why am I here? Am I just wasting my time
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when I look into his eyes

Chorus
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's on my shoulders. Everyone's leaning on me
Cuz sometimes it feels like the world's almost over, but then he comes back to me.

Verse 2
My baby keeps getting' older. People make jokes cuz they don't understand me, they just don't see my real side
I act like shit don't phase me, inside it drives me crazy. My insecurities could eat me alive
But then I see my baby, suddenly I'm not crazy. It all makes sense when I look in his eyes.

Verse 3
Man, if I could sing, I'd keep singin' this song to mack. If I could hit the notes, I'd blow something as long as my father
to show him how I feel about him. How proud I am that I got him. Now you probably get this picture from my public persona that I'ma pistol packin' drug addict who bags on his mama.
But I wanna to just take this time out to be perfectly honest, cuz there's a lot of shit I keep bottled that hurts deep inside
of my soul. And just know that I grow colder the older I grow. This boulder on my shoulder gets heavy and harder to hold,
and this load is like the weight of the world, and I think my neck is breakin'. Should I just give up or try to live up to these expectations?
Now look, I love mack more than life in itself, but I got a sister that's determined to make my life livin' hell.
But I handle it well, given the circumstances I'm dealt. So many chances, man, it's too bad - But the years that I've wasted is nothing to the tears that I've tasted, Man, I should have seen it coming. But fuck it, it's over. There's no more reason to cry no more. I got my baby, baby the only man that I adore
(mack). So sayonara, try tommorra, nice to know ya. Our baby's traveled back to the arms of her rightful owner.
And suddenly it seems like my shoulder blades have just shifted. It's like the greatest gift you could get. The weight has been lifted.
