Disconnect (DEMO)

[Intro] Yeah, ooh Yeah, hold on, yeah Yeah, okay, let me tell it Okay, yeah Yeah [Chorus] All I wanted was respect Just want to be accepted Too focused on being perfect And now that I reflect I was blind and I shouldn't have listened to what you said Now there's a disconnect between me and you Now I'm true to myself and I make my own moves I used to try and be cool, impress the kids at school But I wasn't being true to my Goddamn roots Hol' up [Verse] I speak from my heart, not my throat Said no longer I'd be told The person I am, still finding myself I really don't need you to hold me back No holding me back, no more discussions 'bout that Boy, it's a wrap Used to worry about so-called “friends”, but they'd never hit me back Like damn, look at how far I've come But I've only just begun I tried to run from the person that I was Goddamn, how I was so dumb But I don't need your judgement Was somebody I wasn't But now I'm here to change that And take over the country, oh man [Chorus] All I wanted was respect Just want to be accepted Too focused on being perfect And now that I reflect I was blind and I shouldn't have listened to what you said Now there's a disconnect between me and you Now I'm true to myself and I make my own moves I used to try and be cool, impress the kids at school But I wasn't being true to my Goddamn roots Hol' up (Hol' up)
