Verse

Yoh

Midnight I'm caught up in my motions,

Cannot find no sleep, slipping deep in my emotions

Im a lone sailor tryna navigate these oceans but my campus broken i can not figure out directions.

Till about 5, I am busy remnising

Am probably thinking about the good people I am missing

or maybe feeling threatend, like a snake am busy hissing,

Soaked up in my pain, see the stressing that is dripping.

Ah

In that every night i shift gears

from talking to hurting,

from hurting to crying,

from crying to praying

All this overthinking got me sinking.

I am failing hold it, my flows are showing, my heart I'm pouring, can you listen to my painful groanings.

I been carrying pain for a while now, I been doing zombie walking dead for while now.

Some of these people ain't ready to admit that we are broken, yet theyre pointing at the ugly side of this token.

Maybe they will get it when see a brother smocking,

maybe they will understand when they see me busy doping,

dropping all the caffeine, sipping on some codaine, just to numb my pain like doctors choose to use some Morphin.

I been dealing with the same thing, years with the same pain,

clothes with the same stain,

Still on the same plane, what

God please just cut me loose from this chain.

Im not nolonger idle i am busy or seeking and looking for answers

I been sitted on a pricking needle now i confess its been hurting,

Nkumbako munthu wakuni lombela kwachiuta para vasuzya.

Nyengo zinyake nilije nkongono zaku chimbila kwachiuta.

I need somebody to help me pray when I can't do own.

I need somebody to share his word when I am need of his voice.

(In need of his voice when am feeling this void)

(It's crazy, I am broken sometimes and I need somebody to pray for me

It's not always a smooth journey,

no man, sheesh)

BRIDGE

believe me I am bleeding

weary i need healing

Catch me cause am falling

Down i need of some lifting

Som lifting

believe me I am bleeding

weary i need healing

Catch me cause am falling

Down i need of some lifting

Som lifting

CHORUS

This pain has been killing me softly

Like a poison that killiing me slowly

This pain has been killing me softly, you killing me slowly

Whachu you want from me pain! (YEAH)

I thought you had enough

Whachu you want from me pain!

Im tryna find a way I can numb this pain (YEAH)

Its killing me softly, killing me slowly

(Im tryna find a way I can numb this pain)
