Somewhere

[Intro: Rexx Life Raj]

Look

[Verse 1: Rexx Life Raj]

I try to cope with stress, it's so much shit to be worried 'bout

It's hard for me to talk about emotions, I'm burnt out

Curvin' anxiety inside the gym when I work out

Used to keep a Xan for when the workout ain't work out, yeah

When I was grievin', it was heavy, I made it seem weightless

Now I'm on the verge of bein' great and on the brink of breakin'

I pray to God and all I ask is that He give me patience

Tryna fill this gap inside my soul that's infinitely spacious

I battle demons and regret, it burn like cigarettes

Somehow I still find solacе in the fact I know I did my best

Maybe I should takе a break and give this shit a rest

But I don't got too many avenues to get it off my chest

I miss my mom, I miss my dad, I miss my nigga Greg

"I love you, brother" was the last thing you ever said, yeah

Those words run marathons around my head

I try to stay present, but instead

[Chorus: Joy Oladokun]

I wish I was somewhere, anywhere but here

I wish I was somewhere where it was more clear

I wish I was somewhere, somewhere

Anywhere but here

[Verse 2: Rexx Life Raj]

Ayy, I sit in rooms in silence, still no peace and quiet

At my parents' house just tryna pack up everything inside it

I'm finna move to LA, my mom would be excited

Used to tell her it felt like home and I would be there writin'

Ain't know the journey to get there would be as crooked

As a pickpocket stealin' your wallet when no one's lookin', yeah

I accepted it, ain't say I understood it

I spent many nights questionin' God, but who wouldn't? So

I think we get tougher, it don't get better

I wrote journals and letters tryna get my shit together

Look, you could go through it just to go through it

But I think it's better to turn temporary pain into somethin' that lives forever

Can't count the times I broke down at the meet-and-greets, yeah

Stories so heavy sometimes I needed a seat

How many times have you changed a life from the things you speak?

Or had people cryin' front row 'cause you gave a voice to they grief?

On the stage full of pain, tryna mask it with a melody

At least it's helpin' somebody heal, I guess it's destiny, yeah

This is everything I wanted, allegedly

I know it's sold out, but respectfully

[Chorus: Joy Oladokun]

I wish I was somewhere, anywhere but here

I wish I was somewhere where it was more clear

I wish I was somewhere, somewhere

Anywhere but here
