stella mwangi - time for myself lyrics
[verse 1:]
i grew up with a lot of racism
and only lord knows how much i hated them
for showing me hate and never had i been mean to them
was just a little kid trying to get friends with them
they used to call me ugly names cause my skin was dark
i couldn’t take the pain couldn’t play in the park
but that didn’t stop them they used to shout from far
saying go back home cause a n-gg-r you are
and at that time i didn’t even know what that meant
i was probably six or seven year’s old man
i told the teachers, never got help
all they said, you gotta know your different play with yourself
man, i felt so alone
never liked school couldn’t wait to get home
but as the days p-ssed i got through it all
but from time to time i break down when i remember it all so
[chorus:]
i just need a little time for myself
so i can, think bout my life no body else
i just need a little time for myself
[verse 2:]
so i can take it easy, do ya hear me
i had low self esteem
always walked fast p-ssed the mirror wouldn’t see, or except myself
i didn’t wanna be me
i would have done anything so i could be somebody else
i tried to fit in, but wouldn’t get in
the only place i got in was the wrong click
i hung in but it wasn’t good for me
i knew i wanted much more than to pocket pick
i was afraid how my life would end
no body wanted me around i wasn’t good with friends
probably cause i wasn’t trying to let
anybody see the real me and know how i felt
they’d look down on me
say what i couldn’t be
that’s what my mind used to say slowly killing me
but days p-ssed i got through it all
but sometimes i remember it all so
[chorus:]
i just need a little time for myself
so i can, think bout my life no body else
i just need a little time for myself
[verse 3:]
i used to think that love last forever
but when my parents divorced i cried forever
i saw it coming but refused to understand it
why it happened to us, i couldn’t handle it
see i was used to having problems outside
cause when i came home i had a reason to smile
but when that stopped, where was i to turn to
didn’t trust anybody else to talk to
i got weird it affected my life
started with bad thoughts everyday was a fight
kept everything inside, never talked about it
i put on my mask like everything’s alright
between the age of thirteen to nineteen
drama all around and i got caught up in between, sh-t
but days p-ssed i got through it all
but sometimes i remember it all so
