Uphill Battle

[Intro]
Yeah.
God just listen to me for a couple of minutes
Ayo, yeah

[Verse 1]
I don't even believe in you but god for a few minutes I just need you to see me through
Im looking out the window at the evening blue while Im trapped inside of a mental hospital letting my demons brew
If only people knew, and could see the truth, how hard it is in school for me to keep my cool
It seems easy, but really I just wanna take an...and run in and...each of you

Surrounded by gossip and fake ratchet bitches talking shit behind their friends backs and thats what I have to witness
But what happens when the girl that you singled out goes home to kill herself, well how the fuck are you feeling now
Youd regret it but still let it get to that point so take a second to listen clearly to the message I voice
Whether you have depression or cant deal with the tragedies of life, follow me and Ill help you escape reality tonight

[Chours
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left

[Verse 2]

I dont need sympathy from anyone, shit, all that I want is out of this house for my father gets me caught with a punch
A second time but I reckon Im the bothersome drunk, he never had a father, neither did I, call it a hunch
Cause my mothers a cunt too, no one I can run to, and look what Ive come through, take a gun and count one, two (gunshot)
Im bout to re-run through, my life, Ive begun to, realize that Ive hated lots and I only loved few

The ones that I did, were the ones I would give, my heart too and after weeks argue and just sit
All pissed off like Austin, what the fuck is wrong with you, while others are like Yo, let me get on a song with you
I love the way you keep it real but complex, put messages in it man, Im really feeling the context
You produce all of your music too? God damn, fuck, you probably got a thousand bitches up in your fan club

Nope, Im just a little kid staying up late, writing raps, waiting for someone to come and give me a break

[Chours]
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, its an uphill battle)
Were going left, (yeah) left, (Its an uphill battle) left right (yo) left

[Verse 3]

I was the kid in school where everybody would look at me and would hate at (hate at, hate at, hate at)
Everything that they saw so Ima go use my rap career as my payback (payback, payback, payback)
Im sitting in a room full of kids that are just like me, we all meet eyes and realize we might just be
Not as fucked up as we thought, cuts run up her arm, self harm, drug addicts, emphatic that we likely

Have all felt the same at one point, depression came and kicked us into the ground, face first and it hurts to get up
Too much of a struggle and it doubles when no one sticks up for the fucked up youth, nothing to do as they evict us
And cast us out, thats why we dont know sobriety cause drugs help us hide what were feeling inside entirely
And rest in peace to Amanda Todd and i hope people get, that suicide is just murder by society

[Chours]
Were going left, (take her away god) left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, its an uphill battle)
Were going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left
