Save Me From My Self

Intro – 0:00-0:15

(Yeah...) Late nights... TT DEVUL... Can somebody save me...

Verse 1 – 0:15-0:55

Orange hoodie on, but the weight still on my chest, Smile for the people, hide the pain like it's a test. Nights in the hood, thoughts racing through my brain, Every road I took got memories and pain.

Gold on my neck, but my soul feel cold, Young boy carrying stories that were never told. They see the flex online, think I'm living alright, But they don't see the battles that I fight every night.

Looking in the mirror, I don't know who I see, A broken version of the man I wanna be. Demons in my ear saying I ain't enough, Every day I wake up trying to call their bluff.

Pre-Hook – 0:55-1:10

And I'm tired of pretending that I'm strong, Carrying this hurt for way too long. If heaven hears me, answer my call, Before these shadows make me fall.

Hook – 1:10-1:35

Save me from myself, Lord, before I break, Save me from the thoughts that keep me awake. I wear the gold, but I'm drowning in the shade, Save me from myself, from the choices that I made.

Save me from the nights when I'm losing control, Save me from the darkness living in my soul. I keep on smiling while my heart slowly fades, Save me from myself, from the choices that I made.

Verse 2 – 1:35-2:15

Everybody got advice, but they don't know my scars, They only see the shine, they don't see the dark. Rapper from the block with some dreams in his hand, Trying to build a future while surviving where I stand.

Graffiti on the walls, pain written in the streets, Some of my brothers never made it past eighteen. So I pray for peace when the sun goes down, Trying not to let these heavy thoughts drown me out.

Mama told me keep faith even when it's rough, Sometimes I feel weak, but I know I gotta tough it up. If I fall, let the kasi pick me off the ground, Real love is the only thing that keeps me around.

Bridge – 2:15-2:30

Maybe tomorrow I'll finally see the light, Maybe all this pain won't follow me tonight. Maybe every tear I've cried won't be in vain, Maybe healing's waiting on the other side of pain.

Final Hook – 2:30-2:56

Save me from myself, Lord, before I break, Save me from the thoughts that keep me awake. I wear the gold, but I'm drowning in the shade, Save me from myself, from the choices that I made.

Save me from myself... Don't let me fade away... TTDEVUL... I'm still fighting every day...
