Vent Songtext
von Ali X

I ain′t one to open up
Taught myself to tuffen up
People say my futures bright
And ain't no sense in giving up
But lately I′ve been feeling stuck
Like a diamond in the ruff
My homie told me I got heart
But I feel like I never have enough
I ain't strong enough
Ain't working hard enough
And my girl been getting distant
Like things ain′t bad enough
Feeling she ready to leave
Already packing up
What if I was wrong
Baby what if we not strong enough I miss the bond we used to have
It just don′t feel the same
They way you hand
The way you used to say my name
You still tell me that you care
But you don't act the same
When I met you I was numb
I couldn′t feel a thing
How you sneak into my heart
And make me feel again
Breaking down my walls
Forcing me to see the light again
The only on that make me feel this Way
They say that love don't ever change
I hope you feel the same


I think I′m better off alone
Think I'm better on my own
If you hate me when I′m here
You better hate me when I'm gone
Am I wrong
I was told I don't belong
I just hate when people hate me
I can hate myself alone

Yeah I′m selfish
Cause don′t nobody
Help me when I'm helpless
Rejected, treated like an outcast
Neglected
And tossed a way
I learned to live to fight another day
Later learned that victory′s sweet
With an after taste
Don't care how much that I care
Still could walk away
And after everything I learned
Still make that same mistakes
Had to learn to take my time
Hope it′s worth the wait
Had to learn to deal with pain
Learned to take the hate
Know that I don't always listen
I been know to break the rules
Stressing out on my decisions
Second guessing every move
Cause I been dead broke
And now I got to much to lose
I still struggle with consistency
I got to much to prove
I′m a younin that got heart
They ain't think I'd make it far
Yea I know I′m going places
All I gotta do is start
It shouldn′t be that hard
I know it shouldn't be that hard
But my struggle with anxiety
Is tearing me apart
Ahhhh
Sick and tired
Of trying to validate all my decisions
Love is hard
When I shy away from all my commitments
So I tell them that they wrong
When they tell me I′m gifted
They said one in a million
I thought I'd make the difference
Thought that I could do it different
Throwing in the towel
Thought that I could make the distance
Overdosing false hope
Time to re-up my prescription
I just want to live free
And they telling me that I′m tripping

I think I'm better off alone
Think I′m better on my own
If you hate me when I'm here
You better hate me when I'm gone
Am I wrong
I was told I don′t belong
I just hate when people hate me
I can hate myself alone
