kennedy betts - 23 lyrics

23 [prod. false ego]

(breath)

(yeah
may 16th
was my birthday

i’m 23

yeah)

didn’t think i’d make it to 23
thought i would be taken before this
made it to may 16th, and i still breathe
another day existing, another scene

i’m still here
woke up to this
i’m still here
won’t give up yet
i’m still here
woke up to this
im still here
i still exist

just to exist is an amazing thing
a privilege that were given of experiencing
life in every form
sunny days after storms
winter cold, summer warm
having peace, fighting wars
in yourself it’s a cell
and it’s h-ll when your scourged
but blessings come from heaven
when you learn to love more
and don’t get me wrong
i’ve open some dark doors
i’ve been in some dark places
seen dark faces before
so i know what it’s like
and what it means to endure
cause i know the fear
and i know being numb
saying that you don’t care
and wanting to give up
waking up every day
with thoughts you don’t want
in a world full of wolves
knowing that you’re the runt
no escape from the truth
but you still try to run
from the man in the mirror
and the things that you’ve done
from the pain and the past
cause it’s weighing a ton
end up caught in a corner
with images of a gun
or some pills or a rope
that you strung to be hung
thinking the only way out
is a countdown to 1

cause you’re still here
woke up to this
you’re still here
don’t give up yet

but i also know love
how it’s more than a feeling
it’s the only freedom
that everyone is needing
love is the whole point
why i write with a reason
but if you wanna stay sharp
you gotta keep on bleeding
cause there’s lessons in the pain
you’re sharpened when you’re weakened
if you wanna write a story
then you need the lines to sink in
and if you write in pen
then make sure you have the ink in
and just focus on the point cause
a dull spirit is sinkin
but those who are refined
will rise like the phoenix did
but don’t think that you can die
to run from what really is
cause what’s on the other side
is your mind but more vivid
there’s no escape
so face the pain while your in it
cause change has no limits
and suicide it isn’t
a synonym for riddance
i’m hoping that you do get it
these words are paying a visit
they’re knocking on your heart’s prison
a sword that i have been spitting
for a surgical incision

to cut away at the dark
give the love i’ve been given

cause you’re still here
woke up to this
you’re still here
you still exist

didn’t think i’d make it to 23
thought i would be taken before this
made it to may 16th, and i still breathe
another day existing, another scene

i’m still here
woke up to this
i’m still here
won’t give up yet
im still here
woke up to this
im still here
i still exist

i know
you feel that pain
i know
it’s heavy weight
just let go
it’s okay
you’re not alone
not today
