Before my birthday I tried to commit suicide
While I was carving at my flesh the only memories I kept inside my looming mind was you and I
And in a few weeks you be going back to you and I
Back to the midlands far away from your parents and siblings
And I go back pretending you don’t really miss em
I’ll be back to being home alone with my prescriptions
With a bunch of friends who don’t understand my condition
I couldn’t put my feelings or put you aside
Staring at the clock and feeling like I’m losing time
Cause you’ll be 21 and look at how quickly 3 years have gone
And I can’t get out my bed cause my head is numb
Knowing you could be with anyone but stuck with me
That shit up on my tongue Is almost bittersweet
That’s why I made a vowel and said that I’d get rid of all these negativity’s incase out future children mirrors me
So ironic how your family’s got manic depressives
So is that boyfriend that you claim to be blessed with
Or cursed with
I guess you saved my life so I can write these verses in cursive and bring awareness to the surface

After my birthday I tried to commit suicide
While I was tryna form a loop to make a noose to hang myself all I could think about was you and I
And in a few weeks you be going back to you and I
I know I shouldn’t just rely on you but I do
Cause when I say everything great you make it colourful
You get me that I’m seeing from a tunnel view
And broaden my horizons till I’m vertical and fall on you
Feeling close to death but I’m far from it I-
Fight myself contemplating death is hard to decide
Trying not to be vulnerable I’m masking it I’m clock watching but not watching the time
Rollie on my left wrist scars on my right
Carving into flesh while I’m covered in ice
The writings on the wall when I’m carving it I-
Got this price that type of love for that bargin and price
