jones – the ones lyrics

verse 1:
you ain’t always gotta be impressive
your need for respect is borderline obsessive
always trying to spit it faster like you’re breaking records
either today empty hands is all you’re left with
you don’t wanna be famous, you wanna be accepted
and you cover up your past, don’t let them see the wreckage
’cause still the way you feel like you’re hiding weapons
but that don’t ever work, you know, learn your lesson
stop holding everything inside, it isn’t hеalthy
if your opponent’s spirit, what’s the point of being wеalthy
gaining followers online, but yo, that isn’t helping
afraid to ask the people in your life, “help me”
maybe as you’re growing up, you’d always hear this
“don’t ever show your fear ’cause it’s seen as weakness”
and if you’re weak, then forget reaching your achievements
which isn’t true, but most of your life, you believed it
chorus:
i just wanna know there’s someone out there who can hear me
i just wanna know there’s someone out there who can feel me too
i just wanna know someone out there knows the real me
gotta believe that it’s not just me
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me

verse 2:
so you get on the mic and rhyme about your pain and
people said it was cool, it was entertaining
that’s how you express the things you weren’t saying
writing new songs, nothing’s really changing
act like you’re in control, but you’re just surviving
locked inside your mind, you built your own asylum
what’s the point of having dreams if you don’t ever triumph
that’s like saying there’s no point to life because of dying
never take a break, feel like you’re always running
you’re trying to be the person everybody’s wanting
do things to make them like you that you couldn’t stomach
that’s who you became, what are you becoming
’cause you don’t wanna have to feel like you’re a burden
so you put on a smile, but underneath, you’re hurting
tried to numb the pain with alcohol and overworking
afraid that if you fail, you’ll end up deserted
chorus:
i just wanna know there’s someone out there who can hear me
i just wanna know there’s someone out there who can feel me too
i just wanna know someone out there knows the real me
gotta believe that it’s not just me
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me

verse 3:
one day a thought bubbled to the surface
what if all you’ve been through served a different purpose
what if what you’re writing could let someone know
you’ve been through it too and they’re not alone
i won’t lie to you, life is pretty ruthless
the dark’s a scary place, just keep walking through it
i know it seems impossible, but you can do it
this is so much more than music, it’s a movement
i do this for the ones feeling at the bottom
the ones who ran away until the world forgot them
i do this for the beaten and bruised, the used and abused
kids in broken homes living without mothers and fathers
the ones playing a part just so they feel accepted
the ones rejecting their beliefs so they don’t get rejected
the ones trading their bodies so they feel a connection
the ones getting bullied and they don’t got no one there to protect them
the ones who cut off their arm so they put down the bottle
the ones hating themselves for the pills that they swallow
the ones who take them and hoping they don’t wake up tomorrow
’cause they’d rather feel high so they don’t have to feel hollow
i know what it’s like to just wanna be loved
what it feels like to believe that you don’t measure up
but when you’re overwhelmed and think you wanna give up
take my hand, you can stand with the ones like us
chorus:
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me
this is for the ones like me
