Tough Talks
Embracing Imperfections: Latrell De'Sean's Anthem of Resilience
Lyrics
Except me for who I am or don't except me at all
Embrace me as I am or reject me entirely.
I'm the chosen one but that don't mean that I Don't got flaws
Despite being the chosen one, I acknowledge my imperfections.
When shit went down I was the only one that stood up tall
In challenging times, I stood tall when others didn't.
Forgive me god but this shit up and these niggas gotta fall
Asking for forgiveness from God, expressing a need for change.
I been doing my shit ain't no need for a stall
Continuing my efforts without unnecessary delays.
I know we went out separate ways I still want you to ball
Despite parting ways, I wish success for you.
When times got tough and shit got rough I was the one they called
During tough times, I was the one people relied on.
When roles reversed they never there I feel like fuck them all
Feeling abandoned when roles are reversed, a sense of betrayal.
Can't wait until I'm up might blow fifty k in the mall
Anticipating success and planning to spend lavishly.
I take these drugs to ease pain know I can't feel at all
Using drugs to numb emotional pain.
Ain't got no time for love that shit will kill like Fentanyl
No time for love due to its potentially harmful consequences.
I'm betting on myself but really ain't no bet at all
Confidently investing in oneself without hesitation.
Used to have dope boy dreams I watched them cut the crack
Reflecting on past dreams related to a life involving drugs.
Walking around the apartments fake gat I thought I was that
Recalling a time of misguided self-perception.
Trams from my past I was barely off the Similac
Early memories involving formula milk, emphasizing youth.
My uncle died ever since then I ask my pops where you at
Mourning the loss of an uncle and seeking answers from a father.
Brendan send the beat hop on the mic and let my pain flow
Acknowledging pain and using music as an outlet.
I been wondering why it's so hard to let this pain go
Struggling to let go of emotional pain.
I don't know what I'm feeling but I'm feeling it
Expressing complex and ambiguous emotions.
Momma send a text like boy keep going son you killing it
Receiving encouragement from a mother to persevere.
Thought up in my head I'm taking drugs tryna get rid of it
Dealing with inner turmoil by resorting to drugs.
If I pull up in a double r just know that I'm really rich
Symbolizing success through material wealth.
I been on some villain shit they been on some silly shit
Embracing a rebellious and assertive attitude.
I been tryna find a hundred ways to make a milly quick
Seeking various paths to achieve financial success quickly.
Except me for who I am or don't except me at all
Reiteration of self-acceptance despite imperfections.
I'm the chosen one but that don't mean that I Don't got flaws
Recognition of personal flaws despite being chosen.
When shit went down I was the only one that stood up tall
Standing tall in difficult situations.
Forgive me god but this shit up and these niggas gotta fall
Expressing regret and a desire for change.
I know I can go distant sometimes and I know I can go missing sometimes
Acknowledging occasional emotional distance.
You just got to bear with me sometimes and maybe our relations last a long time
Requesting understanding for intermittent absence, hoping for a lasting relationship.
Scared to get attached I don't kno why you not scared for
Fearful of emotional attachment without understanding why.
Over thinking swear that shit be fucking my head up
Overthinking causing mental distress.
Crossed by the ones I swear that I would've bleed for
Feeling betrayed by those one would have sacrificed for.
But I been on my grind ain't got no time for a hater
Focused on personal growth, ignoring negativity.
I been in my own lane doing my own thing yea
Independently pursuing one's path and goals.
She tried to throw me her love I told her no thank ya
Rejecting love due to anticipation of its eventual end.
Because I'm already knowing how it's ending it's best to cut the snake from the beginning
Choosing to cut ties early to avoid future complications.
Except me for who I am or don't except me at all
Reiteration of the importance of self-acceptance.
I'm the chosen one but that don't mean that I Don't got flaws
Acknowledging personal imperfections despite being chosen.
When shit went down, I was the only one that stood up tall
Standing firm in challenging situations.
Forgive me God but this shit up and these niggas gotta fall
Seeking forgiveness from a higher power and expressing a need for change.
Except me for who I am or don't except me at all
Emphasizing the importance of accepting oneself.
I'm the chosen one but that don't mean that I Don't got flaws
Acknowledging personal imperfections despite being chosen.
When shit went down I was the only one that stood up tall
Standing firm in challenging situations.
Forgive me god but this shit up and these niggas gotta fall
Seeking forgiveness from a higher power and expressing a need for change.
