lirik lagu sam mackey - keep me in check
[verse 1: sam mackey]
i’m gonna be honest
everybody is born with possibilities unlimited
but growing up in this world we live in, souls get contaminated
success stories become more rare and faded
glamorized tragedies are more constant, feels like n0body can make it
it’s the television, the radio, the magazines, and whoa
it’s the girls 16 and pregnant struttin a t.v show
self esteem shot down by the media
you don’t feel good enough about yourself do yeah?
that’s why we’re not treating our bodies with respect
rather than going to school, reading books, increasing our intellect
drinking all night, you only live one, y.o.l.o
soon your life’s uncontrollable
we thrive on instant gratification
i’m just making an observation on corruption within our nation
but who am i kidding? i’m in no position to judge
we’ve all got someone doing that for us up above
[chorus]
[verse 2: sam mackey]
and at the end of the day i’m just trying to keep my balance in check
dealing with the world and its side effects
looking for a family, looking to belong
but until then i got two feet to stand tall on my own
you see i could write all day about what’s wrong with everyone else
addicted to fame, a life dedicated to wealth
even at the expense of someone else’s health
but let’s take an honest look at me, honestly i’m not 100% proud to be
my self esteem is shot, its low
my rhymes aren’t great, but i got a little flow
i seek validation
i’m brilliant when it comes to manipulation
and i hate humiliation
strange, this seems to fit everybody’s situation
but how do i challenge my habits and reveres my perception
on my friends, family, the world around me and not to mention
how do i change the way i view myself?
what is money to me? is it wealth?
or is it ambition and the company i keep
the risks i take, and the way i feel when i fall asleep?
[chorus]
[verse 3: sam mackey]
i wake up every morning sick to my stomach
waiting for the cravings to p-ss, watch the clock tick
i don’t know when ill smile without drugs again
but working through the pain and suffering is where it begins
these days are long and lonely
but i guess patience is what the big guy is trying to show me
along with grat-tude so straighten up your att-tude
today’s a good day, i’m above ground
that’s all i can ask for is to live save and sound
it’s hard to keep my balance in check
dealing with me and my side effects
but this is where i belong
and i got two feet to stand tall, but i’m never alone
