I Might Have PTSD

from More Than My Skin by Tres Carter

/

lyrics

In a room full of people
Still I feel alone
Ever since I was real young
I always been on my own
All of these names in my phone
Still I don’t feel like I’m known
I need a couple clones
Help me to shoulder the load
All of these books that I bought
I taught myself how to own
I ran and picked up the phone
I got approved for the loan
Spent 85 of my own
I’m still so amazed how we growing
And with anything that is growing
It’s gonna have pain it’s annoying
Medicine is my employment
I work so much I no longer enjoy it
People I love I’m destroying
Gotta learn what is important
Number one rule in the game
Is Wifey never come second
Any request come to the desk
And she ain’t at rest? Forget it
Second rule of the lesson
Always be present
Instagram page can wait
Them at home moments is precious
Final rule, in this lesson
Do what you did to get it
The little things are a weapon
It’ll help Keep the connection
When did you pick up the clipper?
I was bout 10 or 11
I got the heart of a Reverend
I got the soul of a Shepard
Oh no, the king has been leveraged
Carried the shame of the leopard
Me and her only comparison
Is that our swag is the rarest
I’m bout to book it Paris
Bring a new spark to my marriage
Two babies up in thecarriage
I’m in a battle with arrogance
My biggest fear is embarrassment
I’m unpacking that with a therapist
Window seat of American
Landed on I’m the impediment
I put that blue in my hair again
Why do I care if they stare at him
That’s borderline impairing him
Relationally he stammering
Why did I open a business
Was it to silence the critics?
What are you running so hard for?
You are not in the Olympics
Aye bro you’re super artistic
But not really good with logistics
Self awareness is key
I always been ambitious
I always knew I was gifted
I always felt like a misfit
I always wondered where Paul went
I just wish I could call him
Even though I never met the bruh
Still I became his replica
Look what I did to Miss Erica
Took her through all that hysteria
D didn’t know when I married her
She only got what I gave to her
Everything else I covered up
I thought God’s healing would hurry up
This coming through on your stereo
1 with the double 0
Alexa text my lil bro
I just wanna say that I love you Rock
I remember you through the shot
I’ma put you on stage when I do the Schott
You ain’t the only missing moms
You ain’t the only one miss ya pops
You ain’t the only one miss ya ex
You ain’t the only one dodge the block
You ain’t the only dodge the cop
I’m grateful you ain’t have to dodge the shot
My Lincoln car that rugar shot
But I’m alive I thank you GoD
You ain’t the only one 1Min the room
Head down feeling like
I’m in a room full of people
Still I feel alone
Ever Since I was real young
I always been all on my own
All of these names in my phone
Still I don’t feel like I’m known
