I Care For You

[Verse 1] I guess it started with my first love, an idea inside my dome Punk kid tryna make a million off a microphone If I could spit, I would never have to work for it The fame was just a game, and in my brain I deserved that shit When you’re alone you are king So my room became my castle and I was everything A god, but I watched the whole world move without me And the fame never came, saw my reflection start to doubt me Then the recession hit my family And I’m still on the come-up so I couldn’t do a damn thing And I don’t give a fuck if I was 15 My brother sacrificed his best years for this damn dream And I just want to let him know that I’mma pay him back I swear to God I would even build a time machine I hope he understands when he plays this track I was selfish, but grateful is all I’ll be [Hook] I care for you, I really do I really do I sit alone in the sun I wrote a letter to you I’m getting over myself [Verse 2] It's easy to feel entitled when you feel like you've been lied to The frustration never fades, it just slowly builds inside you Cause fuck the world isn't a motto or a mantra It's your broken heart yearning for a beating heart to want you I guess loneliness breeds selfishness Like how are you supposed to care if no one's there So you greet people you meet like to hell with it Cause your past wants to ask why they weren't here I'm guilty of all of that, I wish she would call me back I hope I can win her trust if she ever hears this track I never believed her when she told me that she loved me Cause I fell in love with loneliness and she could take it from me But high school ended and I lost my best friend, did We ever really happen or maybe we just pretended Losing you is the only thing I regret So I'mma tell you what I should have told you before I left
