cj anfernee - peace to me lyrics

[intro]:
generational trauma
the only way that those before us could deal with their own issues internally was to pass on the hurt
y’know, just be abusive, be emotionally insensitive, just leaving unhealthy impacts on the generations that followed
and we’ve just been adopting and practicing those same habits for years and decades
but we can commit to breaking that chain. right now

[verse 1]:
contemplating my quarter century
rest in peace to the young’uns who never made it to see their twenty
my+generation be fighting demons
leave us to tough it out cuz we not guaranteed emotional wellbeing
the talk around is mental wealth
your elders tend to dismiss your hurt and gaslight you at length
on the mic and on the stage, i reinvent myself
call me black sheep, at least you’ll never f+ck my health
god bless

[hook]:
(ooooo, let me know)
mentally living free, feel like a better man
(ooooo, let me know)
this sh+t is peace to me. make me a better man

[verse 2]:
i left the house permanently
momma sabotaged herself, and my sister resents me
now i’m two of the biggest clichés under the sun:
a “cain” to my country and a deadbeat son
i grew to hold a grudge against my father’s side
duplicating her chapters on my own empty page
didn’t realize that i became an emotional clyde
the things you never think about until you age
well, i’m not shedding tears if i hear from any nurse
just know that when you pass away, i can’t afford the he+rs+
as far as you concerned, i took a turn to be the worst
rather that than ditching my blessing to live your curse
if i wasn’t chosen, i’d feel offended
didn’t plead my arrogance, did my best to defend it
didn’t see my sense of entitlement till i penned it
hard to see my true colors when they get blended
abandonment issue, be careful around me
you threaten my peace of mind, i’m dropping you promptly
they look at you and see nothing but profit
now they quick to play the victim, i’m sick and i’m f+cking tired of it

[hook]:
(ooooo, let me know)
give me my therapy, make me a better man
(ooooo, let me know)
this sh+t is peace to me. feel like a better man

[verse 3]:
had to get it off my chest
without all this pain, i’m really love at my best
been carrying my trauma like a bullet in my breast
a taste of a new life, of course i’d be obsessed
but it feels like i’m being punished for tryna make you stones bleed
i just want this cycle broken for the coming breed
i’ll tell you what else is the meaning of peace to me:
open sp+ce and opportunities created for my future seed

[hook]:
(ooooo, let me know)
therapy, better man

[slowed]
(ooooo, let me know)
therapy, better man. (x2)
