Norm - Building (Audio)
Stay hard.
Enjoy...
Lyrics
[Chorus: Norm]
Real life
No story
This ain’t no allegory
Just guts
No glory
The pain is it mandatory
My legs are shaking
Feels like I’m slowly breaking
Can’t fall down
And stay there
No one will rescue me
[Vers 1: Norm]
I know I said a bundle
And I know I said a year or so
But just talking feels cathartic
And too much silence makes me cynical
It’s not that what I said doesn’t still stand
or that it wasn’t sincere
But I make it a point to try to only speak the truth
I am a lonely ass poet
Who’s got everything to prove
I am shaking
Heavy is the task that I have taken
So in over my head that it’s blatant
But even if I could I probably wouldn’t change it
Still working on myself
Reading books and taking long walks
Ongoing conversations with moi
We’re having long talks
But I grow weary
Only talking to myself
I Could use some fresh perspective
I think It’ll do me well
I am building
This metaphorical building
One brick at a time
I hope it can house my children
And a girl who will see me
In a way that no one has ever seen me before
Naked and exposed
Nothing less and nothing more
To tear down all my walls
To be able to see my core
And when she does
She won’t turn away or leave
She’ll just whisper in my ear and say we were meant to be
[Instrumental break]
[Vers 2: Norm]
It’s that feeling of emptiness that pushes me forward
To fill that hole in my chest
To hold it up and support it
But the more I deflect my predicament
As if it was a curse
To try to outsmart and outrun it
The more it gets worse
Cuz I think life just wants to happen to you
So if you’re standing in the way
Then life has to go through you
If I’ve learned anything this past year
It’s that I’m not special
Cut from the same cloth
Just like the rest of us
Just like the worst and the best of us
Respect shouldn’t be given
It is meant to be earned
If my life wasn’t hard
Then I would be concerned
Cuz it wouldn’t be life is I know it
Hit the gym to prepare for the future
Use therapy to deal with the past
Rome wasn’t built in a day
But Rome was built to last
[Chorus: Norm]
Real life
No story
This ain’t no allegory
Just got
No glory
The pain is it mandatory
My legs are shaking
Feels like I’m slowly breaking
Can’t fall down
And stay there
No one will rescue me
