Thirteen – Uphill Battle lyrics
[Intro:]
Yeah.
God just listen to me for a couple of minutes
Ayo, yeah

[Verse:]
I don't even believe in you but god for a few minutes I just need you to see me through
I’m looking out the window at the evening blue while I’m trapped inside of a mental hospital letting my demons brew
If only people knew, and could see the truth, how hard it is in school for me to keep my cool
It seems easy, but really I just wanna take an... And run in and... Each of you

Surrounded by gossip and fake ratchet bitches talking shit behind their friends backs and that's what I have to witness
But what happens when the girl that you singled out goes home to kill herself, well how the fuck are you feeling now
You’d regret it but still let it get to that point so take a second to listen clearly to the message I voice
Whether you have depression or can’t deal with the tragedies of life, follow me and I’ll help you escape reality tonight

[Chours
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Its an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, it's an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, it's an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left

[Verse 2:]

I don’t need sympathy from anyone, shit, all that I want is out of this house ‘for my father gets me caught with a punch
A second time but I reckon I’m the bothersome drunk, he never had a father, neither did I, call it a hunch
Cause my mothers a c*** too, no one I can run to, and look what I’ve come through, take a gun and count “one, two” (gunshot)
I’m bout to re-run through, my life, I’ve begun to, realize that I’ve hated lots and I only loved few

The ones that I did, were the ones I would give, my heart too and after weeks argue and just sit
All pissed off like Austin, what the fuck is wrong with you, while others are like “Yo, let me get on a song with you”
“I love the way you keep it real but complex, put messages in it man, I’m really feeling the context”
“You produce all of your music too? God damn, fuck, you probably got a thousand bitches up in your fan club”

Nope, I’m just a little kid staying up late, writing raps, waiting for someone to come and give me a break

[Chours]
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Its an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, it's an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, it's an uphill battle)
We’re going left, (yeah) left, (Its an uphill battle) left right (yo) left

[Verse 3:]

I was the kid in school where everybody would look at me and would hate at (hate at, hate at, hate at)
Everything that they saw so I’ma go use my rap career as my payback (payback, payback, payback)
I’m sitting in a room full of kids that are just like me, we all meet eyes and realize we might just be
Not as fucked up as we thought, cuts run up her arm, self harm, drug addicts, emphatic that we likely

Have all felt the same at one point, depression came and kicked us into the ground, face first and it hurts to get up
Too much of a struggle and it doubles when no one sticks up for the fucked up youth, nothing to do as they evict us
And cast us out, that's why we don't know sobriety cause drugs help us hide what we’re feeling inside entirely
And rest in peace to Amanda Todd and I hope people get, that suicide is just murder by society

[Chours]
We’re going left, (take her away god) left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Its an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, it's an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left (Yeah, it's an uphill battle)
We’re going left, left, (Its an uphill battle) left right left
