Wallo Speaks

[Spoken Word: Wallo]

You know, it's crazy

You know, I had to come to the realization that we all lost souls

I been lost my whole life, you know?

Identity crisis, not knowin’ who I am

Not wantin' to accept who I am, I'm runnin’ from that

You runnin' from that, we runnin' from that

We all lost, you know

No matter if we givin' advice

No matter if we got money, no matter if we got things

No matter that if we married, no matter if we single

No matter if, it don't matter, no, no matter nothin'

We all lost out here

But we find this beautiful way to make the people to believe

The people that wе wanna impress

We try to make pеople believe through these magical ways that we try to camouflage our lostness

But I don't care who you are, you lost

I'm lost, we lost, you know?

And then we try to use words, like, "You selfish"

Just, just strong manipulation words, "You selfish"

But if I gotta die or you gotta die, you gotta die

Think about that, you gotta go before me

Self-preservation, everybody is puttin’ they self first

But, in this lost world that we in and in our lost minds

We try to make other people believe, that, if they’re selfish

Self-preservation, that they're selfish, think about that

Hidin’ behind your Instagram caption

Hidin', you know, you're hidin' your hurt

Well, at least you’re tryna hide the hurt

You tryna camouflage the hurt

You don't want no one to see that you're hurtin' inside

So you get these things 'cause you're lost

I'm lost, we lost, think about that

I don't care what you got, I don't care where you been

Until you deal with the lostness in your life

And the reality is, you might not ever be able to deal with it while we're here

But I know one thing, I'm lost

No matter how much I'm able to encourage you or motivate you

In the mornin', you could watch my stuff live, or whatever

My shit really do stink, it do, I ain't got my shit together

I'm still travelin' through life, tryna figure it out

Just like you

But guess what? I'ma tell you somethin', and it's a secret

And I might have people that's gonna go against what I'ma tell you

Because they're lost and they don't wanna embrace the reality of life

Money don't make you happy

When I got it, I was disappointed

And the reason I was disappointed, because, all my life

I was told and I was educated by the machine, the marketing machine

That once I get it, everything would just magically disappear

My trauma, my childhood pain, you know, pain

The vacancies of my childhood and my upbringing

All the struggle, everything that I been through

Everything that I'm goin' through as a grown-ass man now

As an adult, but guess what? It was a lie

Everything that I been told, the money would

When I got the money, when I signed on the dotted line

The wire hit my account, I thought I was gonna feel this excitement

I thought everything was gonna go away

Everything that ever happened to me

Everything that ever happened to my family

Everything that ever happened to my mind

And all these different ways and all the stuff that I know

And all the stuff that I was supposed to

But it didn't, that's why I'm lost, you are too, we're all lost

And the reality is, while we here, we'll never be unlost

Lost souls
