joey bada$ - survivor's guilt lyrics

Loading...

scribing + do not touch

[spoken: st++z]
i thought i was goin’ crazy, you know?
and like, i realize that i wasn’t the one that was crazy
i realized that it’s the system that was built against me, you know?
and like, i’m not supposed to be talkin’ about this
and that’s the corruption of it, because like me just saying it is absurd
and i want people to open up their eyes and realize that i’m not wrong, you know?
i+i’m, i’m just a openminded individual, and people should be more openminded
if+if we tryna build up our lives to have material things
and those don’t satisfy our needs, what are we living for?
[chorus: joey bada$$]
this one is for you, uh+huh
this onе is for you (for you, for you, for you)
this one is for you, uh+huh
this one is for you (for you, for you, for you)

[verse 1: joey bada$$]
st++zy told me, “gеt ’em,” so i got ’em (got ’em)
now my n+gga gon’, he will never be forgotten (never)
ever since he left, i just been struggling without him
’cause i remember linkin’ after school and we’d be plottin’ (plottin’)
talk about our problems and what we do about ’em (yeah)
journalin’ and jottin’, we ain’t know the world was watchin’ (facts)
we was just two kids tryna make it out the bottom (uh+huh)
now i’m rich and rotten, everyday i think about him, it’s survivors guilt
wishin’ i coulda stopped him, let alone just know how he feel
lyrically couln’t top him, he was the n+gga with the belt (uh+huh)
yeah, and that’s real rap, i couldn’t do this sh+t without him, and that’s just fact
you see, if you ain’t know steelo, then you don’t know me though (no)
and that’s how i separate all the real from fake people (yeah)
or the real from fake fans (uh+huh), who claimin’ that they stans (uh+huh)
but they ain’t know my mans (no) until the very end, wish he was still here
i swear it feels weird how people could accuse me for his death
sometimes i gotta shed a real tear (tear)
you see, the truth about steelo, he lacked the mental health (he did)
but try to tell that to people way back in 2012 (i can’t)
but now that it’s a mainstream topic, i’m guessin’ i can finally open up and talk about it, so yeah, let’s talk about it (yeah)
come into my mind, i show you where the darkest cloud is
you ready? i doubt it, but let’s go
you see, steelo was my bigger bro (uh+huh)
at a point of time, spiritually, we was in the same boat, but
i wanted to take it slow, he wanted to take it as fast and deep as he could go, pause
yeah, we had some problems, but we’re brothers though, sure
then i caught a little wave and headed back to shore
and that’s when he started drowning
and he had no one around him, so partially i feel it’s my fault (yeah)
and that right there is my internal war (uh+huh)
the reason why i got to feel these external flaws
the reason why i can’t heal these eternal losses
the reason why i gotta feel this survivors remorse (shh)
and here’s a message to his fam, i know y’all got emotional trauma
that, i understand, but i couldn’t f+ck with y’all try to tell the world i wasn’t who i am when all i ever tried to do was lend a hand (that wasn’t cool)
and give the fans the thing that they demand the most
king capital, the f+cking goat, word
i’m just tryna get my n+gga heard, give him what he deserves
[chorus: joey bada$$]
this one is for you, uh+huh
this one is for you (for you, for you, for you)
this one is for you, uh+huh
this one is for you (for you, for you, for you)

[verse 2: joey bada$$]
yeah, and r.i.p. my cousin junior b (r.i.p)
