Lyrics
I been waiting for a while now
I have been waiting patiently for a significant amount of time.
I been searching for that lone smile
I have been looking for that unique, solitary smile.
Cause somewhere and somehow you'll smile for me
Believing that at some point, in some way, you will smile for me.
I know I been in denial now
Acknowledging that I have been in a state of denial.
All this pain I won't let it out but writing songs all along with let me bleed
Despite harboring pain, I have kept it within, expressing it through songwriting, allowing myself to bleed emotionally.
You see the blood up on the page but I cover your eyes
There is evidence of my emotional struggles on the page, but I shield your eyes from it.
Tell you that's it old just to make a new disguise
Convincing you that what you see is old, creating a new disguise to hide my true emotions.
And time will tell but I've been running outta time
Acknowledging that time is running out, suggesting a sense of urgency.
Im tearing up my notes like they falling from eyes
Tearing up my notes symbolically like tears falling from my eyes.
The pain keep leaking out like that brand new drake
Describing the pain as leaking out, similar to a new wound.
So if you are reading this its a little too late
Addressing the reader, implying it might be too late for them to understand.
I wanna leave my songs give you something to take
Expressing a desire to leave behind meaningful songs as a legacy.
So when I am gone you can still here my say
Hoping that even after departure, one can still hear and understand the message conveyed through the songs.
I been waiting for a while now
Reiterating the waiting and searching for a genuine smile.
I been searching for that lone smile
Continuing the quest for that singular, heartfelt smile.
Cause somewhere and somehow you'll smile for me
Believing that, somehow, the person will smile for the speaker.
I know I been in denial now
Acknowledging once again being in a state of denial.
All this pain I won't let it out but writing songs all along with let me bleed
Despite inner pain, choosing to express emotions through songwriting, allowing the emotional release.
Maybe if we never had to struggle
Contemplating the possibility that without struggle, personal growth and effort might not have occurred.
I never woulda worked this hard
Reflecting on the hard work that resulted from the challenges faced.
But ima live like no tomorrow
Committing to live as if there is no tomorrow, embracing the present moment.
Cause I never thought I'd make it this far
Expressing surprise at having come this far, indicating personal growth or achievement.
Mentally I'm feeling lost
Acknowledging a sense of mental confusion or disorientation.
I been through hell and all
Having endured challenging experiences and overcoming them.
The devil never calls so I write these songs
Not succumbing to negative influences ("the devil") and instead channeling emotions into songwriting.
I been waiting for a while now
Repeating the theme of waiting patiently for a significant period.
I been searching for that lone smile
Continuing the search for that unique and meaningful smile.
Cause somewhere and somehow you'll smile for me
Believing that, in some way, the person will eventually smile for the speaker.
I know I been in denial now
Acknowledging once more being in a state of denial.
All this pain I won't let it out but writing songs all along with let me bleed
Despite internal pain, choosing to express emotions through songwriting, allowing the emotional release to continue.
