George Monastiriakos Doesn't Need A Chorus Lyrics

Yo, f*ck the small talk, I'd rather talk about what's profound
So you see through me like an ultrasound
You know the feeling of feeling guilty for doing good
I feel it every single time I return to the hood
Late night runs, balling, shadow boxing
Looking out for literally everyone has me exhausted
Never had a dad, so that's my responsibility
Hope my kids visit, like it's not a possibility
The fear of fading, disintegrating, my kids forget me
Let's talk about a happy ending
Years of being showered with love & appreciation
From feeling like the greatest to totally suffocating
How far could I take it, knew I'd never escape this
Since the nights I spent grinding on the grave shift
I love you, wish I could make all your problems disappear
But there's people who really need me here
Some are in denial, or borderline suicidal
Haven't seen you in a while, I just wanna make you smile
Started pushing boulders, now I'm moving mountains over
Same soldier, still, girls think that I'm Casanova
Same George, got the vision-board with all my goals
Still in the zone turning heartbreaks to milestones
Same flows, still embracing rejection and failure
Mistakes that I make only making me greater
Trying to be someone that my kids could be proud of And be a good dad, ‘cause I grew up without one
There's millions of kids in the hood just like me
f*cked up and angry, ‘cause they never had a daddy
Selling out their values, compromising their principles
Keep thinking you're invincible, see myself when I think of you
Look into my eyes, realize that the anger lingers
Going out like Tony Stark when I snap my fingers
Never holding back, always give you the same love
Show them what you're made of, then blow the trail I blaze up
Trendsetter, shooting, becoming a better person
Constant improvement, nowadays, I miss the burden
Debating who's the greatest, call the oddsmakers in Vegas
Tell us how'd you make it, and why didn't you take us
My cards on the table, what you mad at me for
The hand I was dealt was more f*cked up than yours
Say what you want, you're never offending me
Know who I am, I've got too much identity
Never listened, always did what I wanted
I keep evading the nonsense, it's just a race to the bottom
Seeds that I've planted, now I'm watering the flowers
Life gives you lemons, and love gives you power
So follow your dreams, or follow their orders
Songs like these just don't need a chorus
